Group X secretory PLA2(sPLA2-X) is expressed in neutrophils and plays a role in the pathogenesis of neutrophil-mediated tissue inflammation and injury. This study tested the hypothesis that sPLA2-X in neutrophils may contribute to the pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) using sPLA2-X−/−mice. AAA was created by application of CaCl2to external surface of aorta. As a result, the aortas of sPLA2-X−/−mice had smaller diameters (percent increase from baseline; 24.8 ± 3.5% vs. 49.9 ± 9.1%, respectively;P< 0.01), a reduced grade of elastin degradation, and lower activities of elastase and gelatinase (26% and 19% lower, respectively) after CaCl2treatment compared with sPLA2-X+/+mice. In sPLA2-X+/+mice, immunofluorescence microscopic images showed that the immunoreactivity of sPLA2-X was detected only in neutrophils within aortic walls 3 days, 1, 2, and 6 wk after CaCl2treatment, whereas the immunoreactivity was not detected in macrophages or mast cells in aortic walls. sPLA2-X immunoreactivity also was colocalized in cells expressing matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9. Neutrophils isolated from sPLA2-X−/−mice had lower activities of elastase, gelatinase, and MMP-9 in response to stimuli compared with sPLA2-X+/+mice. The attenuated release of elastase and gelatinase from sPLA2-X−/−neutrophils was reversed by exogenous addition of mouse sPLA2-X protein. The adoptive transfer of sPLA2-X+/+neutrophilsdays 0and3after CaCl2treatment reversed aortic diameters and elastin degradation grades in the lethally irradiated sPLA2-X+/+mice reconstituted with sPLA2-X−/−bone marrow to an extent similar to that seen in sPLA2-X+/+mice. In conclusion, sPLA2-X in neutrophils plays a pathogenic role in AAA in a mice model.
