Background: Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) is a large family of enzymes involved in the inflammatory process that catalyzes the hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids, leading to the production of free fatty acids and lysophospholipids, starting the arachidonic acid cascade. Their expression has been related to the behavior of several cancers. Our objective is to search for PLA2 expression in prostate cancer (PCa) tissue that correlates with prognosis and survival. Methods: Using qRT-PCR, we analyzed the expression levels of PLA2G1B, PLA2G2A, PLA2G2D, PLA2G4A, PLA2G4B, PLA2G4C, PLA2G4D, PLA2G4E, PLA2G4F, PLA2G6, PLA2G7, PLA2G16, PNPLA1, and PNPLA2 in PCa tissue from 108 patients submitted to radical prostatectomy, followed by a mean time of 163 months. Results: All PLA2 was overexpressed in PCa compared to normal tissue. Interestingly, higher expression of some PLA2 was related to favorable prognostic factors: lower levels of PSA (PLA2G2A, PLA2G4D), lower rates of lymph node metastasis (PLA2G16 and PLA2G1B), and organ-confined disease (PLA2G4A). Most importantly, PLAG4B was independently related to longer disease-free survival. Conclusion: This is the first study exploring comprehensively the expression levels of PLA2 in PCa, showing that the higher expression of some PLA2 should be used as biomarkers of good prognosis and longer disease-free survival.
