Disease relevance of LYPLA3

  • In summary, the 1997 revision of the ACS guideline for the early detection of prostate cancer is based on knowledge gained by a critical analysis of experience since the original version of 1992 [1].
  • ACS focusing on breast cancer detection [2].
  • Thus, resting 201TI myocardial scingigraphy is useful in localizing and quantifying the extent of prior myocardial infarction, but is insensitive to small infarcts (ACS less than 6%) [3].
  • We have previously provisionally assigned the gene for one such condition, Saethre-Chotzen syndrome (ACS III), to chromosome 7p [4].
  • BACKGROUND: Clopidogrel added to aspirin improved outcomes after hospitalization in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE ACS) in the Clopidogrel in Unstable angina to prevent Recurrent Events (CURE) trial, regardless of in-hospital treatment approach [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on LYPLA3

  • Some attention is already being paid to development of more culturally appropriate materials (e.g., the ALA Manual oriented to blue collar workers and the ACS focus on pregnant women); however, it remains a challenge to motivate members of these groups to participate in smoking cessation activities.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)[6]
  • ACS releases guidelines on nutrition and physical activity during and after cancer treatment [7].
  • Achievement of NIH and ACS goals for reduction in cancer mortality will require increased efforts directed at risk reduction and early detection in the general population [8].
  • RESULTS: Despite many uncertainties, the lung cancer rates predicted due to exposure to US urban concentrations of the carcinogenic substances arsenic, nickel, chromium, and PAHs measured in 1960 and earlier (and hence allowing for a latency period) were within the range predicted on the basis of the ACS Cohort Study due to exposure of PM2 [9].
  • A total of 1,200 women agreed to participate in the project and each underwent complete screening including education, instruction in self-examination, physical examination by a physician and mammography as indicated according to ACS guidelines [10].
 

High impact information on LYPLA3

 

Chemical compound and disease context of LYPLA3

  • AIMS: To examine whether the prophylactic antianginal agent perhexiline potentiates platelet responsiveness to nitric oxide (NO) in patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP) and acute coronary syndromes (ACS: unstable angina pectoris or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction) [16].
  • The extent of ST-segment depression showed a highly significant correlation with the prevalence of three-vessel (P<0.0001) or left main coronary disease (P<0.0001), and also with the peak levels of creatine kinase (P<0.0001) during the index episode of ACS [17].
  • Ten male monkeys with argon laser-induced ocular hypertension in one eye for an average duration of 2.4+/-0.7 years, were sedated with ketamine hydrochloride, and the CCT, ECD, and ACS measured at the center of the cornea of both eyes with a Topcon SP-2000P non-contact specular microscope (Topcon America Corporation((R)), Paramus, NJ, USA) [18].
  • METHODS: 49 patients (59+/-8 years; 33 male) scheduled for invasive angiography were examined at stress (0.14 mg adenosine/kg body weight/minute) and rest using a TFE-EPI hybrid sequence (Philips ACS NT; 1.5 T) [19].
  • In a recent systematic overview of > 20,000 patients with NSTE ACS from six clinical trials, including conservative and invasively managed patients, enoxaparin provided a statistically significant reduction in 30-day death or nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI) compared with UFH with no significant excess in transfusions, or major bleeding [20].
 

Biological context of LYPLA3

  • Amino acid sequences from cDNAs of mouse, human, and bovine LLPLs demonstrated a signal peptide cleavage site, one lipase motif (AXSXG), and several N-linked glycosylation sites in each LLPL molecule [21].
  • The open reading frames of LLPL were cloned into pcDNA3 to generate carboxyl-terminally tagged proteins [21].
  • The replacement of serine with alanine in the lipase motif of mouse LLPL resulted in elimination of enzyme activity, indicating that the serine residue is part of the catalytic site [21].
  • Linkage analysis is now reported between ACS III and dinucleotide repeat loci on distal 7p [4].
  • Thallium defect size correlated marginally with angiographic left ventricular ejection fraction (r = -0.60) but correlated closely with angiographic % ACS (r = 0.80) [3].
 

Anatomical context of LYPLA3

  • The expression of mouse LLPL in COS-7 cells demonstrated that transfected cells had higher transacylase and phospholipase A(2) activities than did non-transfected cells [21].
  • Subtotal gastric resection, as noted in the ACS report, continues to be the procedure of choice in the US for most gastric cancers, even for cardia cancers [22].
  • CONCLUSION: In patients with NSTE ACS, the sum of ST-segment depression in all ECG leads is a powerful predictor of all-cause mortality at 30 days, independent of clinical variables and correlates with the extent and severity of coronary artery disease [17].
  • ACS protein was also strongly induced following mechanical wounding in Douglas fir and was highly abundant in resin duct epithelial cells and polyphenolic parenchyma cells [23].
  • Lysosomal phospholipase A(2) (Lpla2) is highly expressed in alveolar macrophages and may mediate the phospholipid metabolism of surfactant [24].
 

Associations of LYPLA3 with chemical compounds

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of LYPLA3

  • Immunoprecipitation confirmed that LLPL had ACS activity [21].
  • In vitro phosphorylation analyses using site-directed mutagenesis of recombinant LE-ACS2 as a substrate demonstrate that serine 460 located at the C-terminal region of ACS is phosphorylated [28].
  • The ACS report suggests "special education of the surgeon in the requisites for adequate gastrectomy with node dissection, coupled with effective adjuvant therapy" as a means of improving results in the US [22].
  • METHODS AND RESULTS: We analysed the admission ECGs of 5192 ACS patients enrolled in the GUSTO-IIb trial, without an ECG indication for thrombolysis [17].
  • CONCLUSION: This study showed that in patients with NSTE ACS, triple antiplatelet pre-treatment was associated with a non-significant reduction in enzymatic infarct size, a significantly better initial perfusion of the culprit vessel, and a trend towards a better survival without death or MI [30].
