    Product Description

    Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), also known as platelet activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) or phospholipase A2 group 7 (PLA2G7), hydrolyzes glycerophospholipids to produce lyso-PAF/lyso-phosphatidylcholine and short and/or oxidized fatty acids, many of which have pro-inflammatory or pro-oxidative activities.1,2 Darapladib is a reversible inhibitor of Lp-PLA2 (IC50 = 0.25 nM).3 It produces sustained inhibition of plasma Lp-PLA2 activity in humans receiving intensive atorvastatin therapy.4 Lp-PLA2 inhibition with darapladib also reduces the development of coronary atherosclerotic plaques.5,6
