Abstract

Previous studies have indicated that phospholipase A2 (PLA2) may be associated with tumorigenesis in human tissues. The present study aimed to investigate the association between plasma PLA2 activity and the breast cancer (BC) status of patients. Increased plasma PLA2 activity was detected in patients with breast cancer when compared with healthy controls. Plasma samples were obtained from patients with BC (n=169), patients with benign disease (BD; n=80) and healthy controls (n=81). PLA2 activity was assessed using a quantitative fluorescent assay with selective inhibitors. It was demonstrated that increased PLA2 and secretory PLA2 (sPLA2) activity was associated with tumor stage, particularly in patients with late‑stage disease. Additionally, smoking, alcohol consumption, body mass index (BMI) and age of patients did not have a significant effect on PLA2 activity. Analysis of receiver operating characteristic curves revealed that plasma PLA2 and sPLA2 activities were increased in BC patients compared with healthy controls. It was concluded that plasma PLA2 activity may serve as a biomarker for patients with BC.
