Abstract
Phospholipases A2 (PLA2) play an important role in immunoinflammatory processes (1). They are involved in the synthesis of lipid mediators in nearly all inflammatory cells (2). In addition, a 14 kD type II PLA2 exhibiting strong homologies with pancreatic type I PLA2 is secreted during inflammation (1). This secretion occurs from various cells and tissues: liver cells (3), mesangial cells (4), vascular smooth muscle cells (5) and astrocytes (6) in reponse to various cytokines (TNFα, IL1, IL6).
