  • Title: [Inhibition of phospholipid hydrolysis by phospholipase A2 in microsomal and mitochondrial membranes subjected to lipid peroxidation].

    Abstract:
    The rate of phospholipid hydrolysis in rat liver microsomal and mitochondrial membranes catalyzed by phospholipase A2 was shown to decrease after ascorbate + Fe2+-induced lipid peroxidation. The degree of inhibition was linearly dependent on the amount of lipid peroxidation products (malonyl dialdehyde) accumulated in the membrane. The decreased phospholipid hydrolysis rate in membranes after lipid peroxidation was registered using phospholipases A2 from two sources: porcine pancreas and bee venom. It was established that the inhibitory action of phospholipid peroxidation products was not linked with a direct effect on the enzyme and was not caused by depletion of phospholipase reaction substrates (as a result of lipid peroxidation). A possible role of lateral separation of oxidized and non-oxidized lipid phases in the mechanisms of inhibition of phospholipid hydrolysis by phospholipase A2 is discussed.
