An Asp49 Phospholipase A(2) from Snake Venom Induces Cyclooxygenase-2 Expression and Prostaglandin E(2) Production via Activation of NF-κB, p38MAPK, and PKC in Macrophages
Phospholipases A(2) (PLA(2)) are key enzymes for production of lipid mediators. We previously demonstrated that a snake venom sPLA(2) named MT-III leads to prostaglandin (PG)E(2) biosynthesis in macrophages by inducing the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Herein, we explored the molecular mec...
