iPLA2, Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2; [M+H], gain of a proton; [M−H], loss of a proton; small hairpin ribonucleic acid, shRNA; RPTC, renal proximal tubular cell. iPLA2γ was knocked down in RPTCs and whole cell lipids were isolated using a modified Bligh and Dyer (19) method. Phospholipids were identified using ESI-MS in both positive and negative ion modes. Data were normalized using the central limit theorem as described in Experimental Procedures and are presented as means ± SEM from four or five different rabbits. Within lipid species, means with the same letters were not significantly different as determined by Duncan's multiple range test. Where SEM is equal to zero, the particular lipid species was not identified by ESI-MS in any of the samples from that treatment. Boldface values are statistically significant within that particular phospholipid.
