Product Data
Biological target:
(2E)-OBAA is a potent phospholipase A2 (PLA2) inhibitor, with an IC50 of 70 nM.
In vitro activity:
The present study examined whether LPC activates phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and whether the activation of PLA2 is responsible for the LPC-induced cell damage in isolated rat cardiomyocytes. Three PLA2 inhibitors, 7, 7-dimethyl-(5Z,8Z)-eicosadienoic acid (DEDA), 3-(4-octadecylbenzoyl)acrylic acid (OBAA), and manoalide, attenuated the LPC-induced accumulation of unsaturated NEFA to a similar degree. Nevertheless, whereas both DEDA and OBAA attenuated the LPC-induced increase in [Ca2+]i, change in cell shape, and release of CK, manoalide attenuated none of them.
