In order to ascertain the role of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) in the release of arachidonic acid for eicosanoid biosynthesis, we have characterized a Ca2+-dependent PLA2 from P388D1 cells, evaluated inhibitors of its activity, and correlated the effects of these inhibitors

Globoid cell leukodystrophy (Krabbe disease) is an inherited neurological disorder caused by the pathogenomic accumulation of psychosine (galactosylsphingosine), a substrate for the deficient enzyme galactocerebroside beta-galactosidase. This study underscores the mechanism of action of psychosine in the regulation of oligodendrocyte

In this paper we show that exposure of a rat brain synaptosome fraction to the amyloid beta peptide fragment betaA(25-35), but not the inverted peptide betaA(35-25), stimulated production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. The
