Serum levels of group II phospholipase A2 (PLA2) have been reported to be associated with stage of disease in cancer patients. These levels are also related to the malignant potential in tissues, and are an important prognostic factor. We radioimmunoassayed group II PLA2 levels in pleural and perito

The metastatic potential of ras-transfected cells has been attributed in part to significant ras induction of proteinase expression. To determine whether primary cancers also demonstrate higher cysteine proteinase activities in the presence of activated ras genes or altered ras protein expression, w
Secretory phospholipase A 2 (sPLA 2 ) belongs to a family of small interfacially active enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of phospholipids, yielding lysolipids and fatty acids. sPLA 2 is found in snake and bee venom and also in inflammatory and cancerous tissue. It is mainly active on organized l
