The entomopathogenic bacteria Xenorhabdus nematophila and Photorhabdus temperata subsp. temperata suppress insect immune responses by inhibiting the catalytic activity of phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)), which results in preventing biosynthesis of immune-mediating eicosanoids. This study identified PLA(2) inhibitors derived from culture broths

Benzylideneacetone (BZA) is a metabolite of gram-negative entomopathogenic bacterium Xenorhabdus nematophila, and it acts as an enzyme inhibitor against phospholipase A2 (PLA2). PLA2 catalyzes a committed biosynthetic step of eicosanoids, which mediate insect immune reactions to infection by microbial pathogens.

Antioxidant activities for a series of hydroxybenzalacetones, OH-BZ, were evaluated by measuring inhibitory potencies of OH-BZ against lipid peroxidation induced by t-BuOOH or gamma-irradiation. Their quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) studies indicated that the activities are mainly governed by electronic and
