LY-311727 

LY-311727 is a potent secretory non-pancreatic phospholipase A₂ (sPLA₂) inhibitor (IC₅₀ <1 μM for group IIA sPLA₂). sPLA₂ is an important proinflammatory enzyme^[1][2].

sPLA₂^[1]

LY-311727 (0.1-10 μM) suppresses the contractile responses induced by human non-pancreatic secretory phospholipase A₂ (hnps-PLA₂), in a concentration related manner^[1].
LY-311727 nearly abolishes the hnps-PLA₂ responses at 1 μM, while it failed to suppress porcine pancreatic PLA₂ concentration response curves at the same concentration^[1].
LY-311727 displays 1,500-fold selectivity when assayed against porcine pancreatic s-PLA₂^[1].

LY-311727 (3-30 mg/kg; i.v.) dramatically suppresses the circulating enzyme activity in mice with metallothionein promoter-human secretory PLA₂ minigene (Mt-sPLA₂) transgenic the intravenous (i.v.) administration^[2].
