Exendin-4 (EX4), a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, has been reported to attenuate myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury and inflammatory or oxidative responses. The expression level of secretory group IIA phospholipase A2 (sPLA2-IIA) is elevated in inflammatory diseases. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) upregulates the expression of sPLA2-IIA in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Here, EX4 was examined for its effects on the expression and activity of sPLA2-IIA in HUVECs and mice. Pre-treatment of cells or mice with EX4 inhibited LPS-induced sPLA2-IIA expression and activity. Additionally, EX4 suppressed LPS-induced activation of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2. Therefore, these results show that EX4 inhibited LPS-induced expression of sPLA2-IIA by suppressing cPLA2 and ERK 1/2.

D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D000077270 Exenatide A synthetic form of exendin-4, a 39-amino acid peptide isolated from the venom of the GILA MONSTER lizard (Heloderma suspectum). Exenatide increases CYCLIC AMP levels in pancreatic acinar cells and acts as a GLUCAGON-LIKE PEPTIDE-1 RECEPTOR (GLP-1) agonist and incretin mimetic, enhancing insulin secretion in response to increased glucose levels; it also suppresses inappropriate glucagon secretion and slows gastric emptying. It is used as an anti-diabetic and anti-obesity agent. AC 2993,AC 2993 LAR,Bydureon,Byetta,Ex4 Peptide,Exendin 4,Exendin-4,ITCA 650,Peptide, Ex4
