Phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2 ) functions as the rate-limiting step in arachidonic acid metabolism and in the removal of damaged or peroxidized membrane lipids. It is elevated in some human tumors and may be involved with mechanisms of tumor promotion. In vitro systems have shown PLA 2 activity to be altered by variations in fatty acid and antioxidant components. This study encompassed...
Inflammation has been considered to be related to carcinogenesis. Previously, we demonstrated that 1-hydroxyanthraquinone (1-HA), a naturally occurring carcinogen, induced severe inflammation such as ulcerative colitis in colonic mucosa. We also showed that indomethacin inhibited the tumorigenicity of 1-HA. In this study, we examined the expressions of major enzymes in arachidonic acid cascade related...
