Description: A dozen papers drawn from two 1989 symposia on phospholipase A2: on its relation to the pathophysiological role of soluble and membrane-bound enzymes (January, New York) and on its release from inflammatory cells (March, New Orleans). They explore recent research into the structure, function, molecular biology, and gene structure of the enzyme, and the development of animal models for inflammatory diseases.
