Pla2

  • Official Full Name

    phospholipase A2

  • Overview

    Bee venom phospholipase A2 (PLA) is the main allergen in the bee sting allergy. Bee venom phospholipase A2 (BV-PLA2) is a hydrolytic enzyme which specifically cleaves the sn-2 acyl bond of phospholipids at the lipid/water interface. BV-PLA2 is a 14–16-kDa glycoprotein, consisting of 134 amino acids and displaying a single carbohydrate side chain at the residue Asn13. It is also held to be responsible for some systemic anaphylactic reactions in bee venom sensitized individuals. BV-PLA2 presents 3 peptide and a glycopeptide T cell epitopes, which are recognized by both allergic and non-allergic bee venom sensitized subjects.

Q&As (5)

Ask a question
Can PLA2 inhibitors help in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases? 04/03/2020

Yes, PLA2 inhibitors have been investigated for their potential in reducing cardiovascular risk, particularly in atherosclerosis.

How does PLA2 contribute to inflammation? 05/19/2019

PLA2 releases arachidonic acid, which serves as a precursor for pro-inflammatory eicosanoids, leading to inflammation.

How is PLA2 relevant in the context of neurodegenerative diseases? 08/24/2018

PLA2 dysfunction is implicated in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, making it a target for research and potential therapies.

Are there genetic variations in PLA2 associated with disease susceptibility? 09/15/2017

Genetic polymorphisms in PLA2 have been studied for their potential links to disease susceptibility, including inflammatory disorders.

Are there drugs that target PLA2 for therapeutic purposes? 02/20/2017

Yes, some drugs inhibit PLA2 activity to manage inflammation, as seen in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
