Several questions, however, are unsolved: Is acinar cell necrosis caused by PLA2 derived from infiltrating leukocytes or from pancreatic PLA2 itself? Does PLA2 cause cellular lysis by the release of lysolecithin from lecithin or by generation of free radicals? The aims of this study were to determine which form of PLA2 is responsible for cellular damage and how to inhibit its action.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Isolated rat pancreatic acini were prepared by collagenase digestion. Newly synthesized proteins were labeled by 35S-methionine. Acini were incubated in buffer to which various factors, such as porcine pancreatic PLA2 or bee venom PLA2, homogenates of either leukocytes or pancreatic homogenates, all with or without lecithin and with or without potential inhibitors (aprotinin, 4-bromophenacylbromide, BM 16.2115, quinacrine, various analogs of arachidonic acid), or free radicals (hydrogen peroxide, xanthine/ xanthine oxidase) with or without allo-purinol or dismutase/catalase were added. Cellular destruction was measured by the release of radiolabeled proteins.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>PLA2 alone, free radicals, and granulocytes were not harmful to acini within 30 min of incubation. Free radicals caused significant release of radiolabeled proteins only after 3 h of incubation; this release could be inhibited by scavengers. Incubation of pancreatic acini with PLA2 in combination with lecithin caused rapid release of radiolabeled proteins. Addition of high concentrations of enterokinase activated pancreatic homogenates both alone and with lecithin caused release of cellular proteins, suggesting that pancreatic PLA2 uses lecithin from pancreatic membranes as substrate. Almost all tested potential inhibitors of PLA2 were unable to prevent the destruction caused by either pancreatic or bee venom PLA2 and lecithin. However, HK 42, a polyunsaturated fatty acid analog, was able to reduce dose dependently the release of acinar proteins caused by pancreatic PLA2 and lecithin.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Pancreatic PLA2 and not PLA2 from infiltrating leukocytes may play a role in pancreatic acinar cell necrosis.
