Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** PLA2G4C is a member of the phospholipase A2 family, characterized by its ability to hydrolyze phospholipids into free fatty acids and lysophospholipids. This enzyme is predominantly cytosolic, with a high degree of expression in neurons and immune cells. The gene has been identified as a critical regulator of inflammatory responses, and its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including neurological disorders and cancer. **Pathways and Functions:** PLA2G4C is involved in multiple signaling pathways, including: 1. **Acyl chain remodeling of phospholipids**: PLA2G4C hydrolyzes phospholipids, leading to the production of free fatty acids and lysophospholipids, which are essential for various cellular processes, including membrane fluidity and signaling. 2. **Arachidonic acid metabolic process**: PLA2G4C is involved in the production of arachidonic acid, a precursor to pro-inflammatory eicosanoids. 3. **Inflammatory response**: PLA2G4C regulates the production of pro-inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes, which are critical for the initiation and resolution of inflammation. 4. **Intracellular signaling**: PLA2G4C interacts with various signaling molecules, including calcium, phospholipids, and proteins, to regulate cellular responses. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of PLA2G4C has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Neurological disorders**: PLA2G4C has been associated with Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis, suggesting its role in neuroinflammation and neuronal function. 2. **Cancer**: PLA2G4C has been implicated in the development and progression of various cancers, including breast cancer, lung cancer, and colon cancer. 3. **Autoimmune diseases**: PLA2G4C has been associated with autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, suggesting its role in the regulation of immune responses. In conclusion, PLA2G4C is a crucial enzyme involved in the regulation of inflammatory responses and immune cell function. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the need for further research into the mechanisms of PLA2G4C and its potential as a therapeutic target.
