| Abstract: Phospholipase A2 acting on low density lipoproteins in the extracellular arterial intima may form proinflammatory lipid mediators. Human nonpancreatic secretory phospholipase A2 has three regions that may associate with sulfated glycosaminoglycans. The apoB-100 molecule in low density lipoproteins also has glycosaminoglycan binding regions that could mediate its retention in the arterial intima. Here we report that human nonpancreatic phospholipase A2 isolated from a transfected cell line binds to glycosaminoglycans secreted by cultured human arterial smooth muscle cells. A gel mobility shift assay showed that the affinity of phospholipase A2 for glycosaminoglycans from a heparan sulfate/chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan was higher than for chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycans from a larger versican-like proteoglycan. Affinity chromatography confirmed these results. All glycosaminoglycans tested, at concentrations up to 100 microM, increased the activity of phospholipase A2 toward phosphatidylcholine liposomes. Above this concentration, heparan sulfate and heparin inhibited the enzyme. Heparin and chondroitin 6-sulfate increased phospholipase A2 activity on low density lipoproteins up to 4-fold at 100 microM, whereas heparan sulfate had no effect. The results indicate that human nonpancreatic secretory phospholipase A2 interacts with proteoglycans via their glycosaminoglycan moiety and that the enzyme activity may be modulated by the association of the enzyme and its substrate to the sulfated polysaccharides. | |
