Mus musculus | cPLA2 protein levels are increased ca. 2fold in muscle homogenates 7 days post-denervation. The cPLA2 protein levels are also elevated in Sod1-/- and G93A mice | up |
General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | cPLA2 may be a potential source of fatty acid hydroperoxides. cPLA2 is a key mediator of the high state 1 Amplex Red signal (thought to be highly specific for hydrogen peroxide) that occurs in response to denervation, most likely by preventing the release of fatty acid hydroperoxides from lipid hydroperoxides in the bilayer. Elevation of cPLA2 is potentially a common phenomenon in mice that exhibit muscle atrophy associated with a loss of innervation | Mus musculus |
