    AnnotationMitochondrial uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) has been suggested to participate in the attenuation of the reactive oxygen species production, but the mechanism of action and the physiological significance of UCP2 activity remain controversial. Here we tested the hypothesis that UCP2 provides feedback downregulation of oxidative stress in vivo via synergy with an H2O2-activated mitochondrial calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (mt-iPLA2). In this article we demonstarte for the first time that UCP2, functional due to fatty acids released by redox-activated mt-iPLA2gamma, suppresses mitochondrial superoxide production by its uncoupling action. In conclusion, H2O2-activated mt-iPLA2gamma and UCP2 act in concert to protect against oxidative stress
