title: Interleukin-1 beta induces cytosolic PLA2 in parallel with prostaglandin E2 in rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts.
abstract: We investigated the temporal relationship between the increase in enzymatic activity and protein of a high molecular weight (100 kDa), cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) in interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta)-treated rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts (RSF). Both of these responses increased according to a similar time-course which correlates with PGE2 production by these cells. In contrast, 14 kDa, secreted PLA2 (sPLA2), which was also produced by RSF, was not affected by IL-1 beta treatment. These findings support that an augmentation of CPLA2 activity, caused by an induction of cPLA2 protein, rather than sPLA2, is temporally associated with increased PGE2 production in IL-1 beta-treated RSF.
