The functional site ofÔphospholipase A2 inhibitor from pythonÕ (PIP) was predicted based on the hypothesis of proline brackets. Using di erent sources of secretory phospholipase A2(sPLA2 s) as enzyme, and [ 3 H]arachido-nate-labelledEscherichia colias substrate, short synthetic peptides representing the proposed site were examined for their secretoryphospholipase A2(sPLA2 ) inhibitoryactivity. | Eur.

Using different sources of secretory phospholipase A2 sPLA2s as enzyme and 3H arachido-nate-labelled Escherichia coli as substrate short synthetic peptides representing the proposed site were examined for their secretory phospholipase A2 sPLA2 inhibitory activity. A decapeptide proved to be the most potent of the tested peptides in inhibiting sPLA2 enzymatic activity in vitro and exhibited striking anti-inflammatory effects in vivo in a mouse paw oedema model. inhibited the enzymatic activity of class I II and III PLA2s including that of human synovial fluid from arthritis patients. When tested by ELISA biotinylated interacted positively with various PLA2s suggesting that the specific region of PIP corresponding to is likely to be involved in the PLA2-PLI interaction. The effect of on the peritoneal inflammatory response after surgical trauma in rats was also examined. effectively reduced the extent of postsurgical peritoneal adhesions as compared to controls. sPLA2 levels at seventh postoperative day in the peritoneal tissue of rats were also significantly reduced P in comparison to those of the untreated controls. The present results shed additional insight on the essential structural elements for PLA2 binding and may be useful as a basis for the design of novel therapeutic agents.
