This study investigated the protective effects of a group IIA secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2-IIA) inhibitor, ochnaflavone, on the progression of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced acute liver injury in rat liver microsomes in vitro.

Under normal conditions, after exposure to low to moderate doses of toxicants, secretory phospholipase A (2) (sPLA (2)) and other hydrolytic enzymes are known to appear in the extracellular spaces in order to cleanup the post-necrotic debris in tissues.

Toxicol Appl Pharmacol] showed that in the absence of sufficient induction and co-presence of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), secretory phospholipase A (2) (sPLA (2)) appearing in the intercellular spaces for cleanup of post-necrotic debris seems to contribute to the progression of toxicant-initiated liver injury, possibly by hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids of hepatocytes in the perinecrotic areas.
