Diminished arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase perturbs phase separation and transcriptional response of Runx2 to reverse pathological ventricular remodelingResearch in context [PDF]
Summary: Background: Arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (Alox5) belongs to a class of nonheme iron-containing dioxygenases involved in the catalysis of leukotriene biosynthesis.

Computational prediction of the pathogenic variants of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase activating protein using Molecular Dynamics simulation. [PDF]
The arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (ALOX5AP) regulates leukotrienes (LTs) synthesis. LTs are involved in inflammation which is implicated in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and stroke.

Causal Pathways Linking Gut Microbiota, Serum Metabolites, and Meningioma Risk: A Mendelian Randomization Analysis. [PDF]
This Mendelian randomization analysis elucidates causal pathways linking gut microbiota and serum metabolites to meningioma. We identified specific risk factors and found that arachidonic acid potentially mediates the effect of CAG−873 sp001701165 on meningioma risk.

Irisin regulates lipid metabolism and ferroptosis in ovarian cancer cells by modulating the ALOX5-5-HETE-PD-L1 axis [PDF]
This study investigates the role of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5) in upregulating programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression via its metabolite 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) in ovarian cancer cells, and explores the effects on lipid ...

Chilling injury mechanism in the immature oocytes of zebrafish (Danio rerio) [PDF]
Immature zebrafish oocytes are sensitive to chilling, and their survival is markedly reduced by exposure to 0°C. In the present study, we investigated the involvement of cold-sensitive channels and lipid mediators in chilling injury in immature zebrafish ...

ALOX15‐Derived Oxylipins Attenuate Macrophage Inflammatory Signaling Via a Gαq–PLC–PKC Pathway [PDF]
ALOX15 expression and its downstream oxylipins, including 12‐HETE and 13‐HODE, are induced in intestinal epithelial and lamina propria immune cells during the early and middle phases of experimental colitis. These endogenous lipid mediators suppress lipopolysaccharide‐induced TNF‐α and IL‐6 production in macrophages without affecting cell viability ...

Role of the route of leukotrienes in an experimental model of oral mucositis induced by 5-fluorouracil [PDF]
Purpose: To investigate the participation of cysteinyl leukotrienes in the pathophysiology of oral mucositis. Methods: Oral mucositis was induced in hamsters using 5-fluorouracil (5-FU; 60 and 40 mg/kg; i.p., on days 1 and 2, respectively, and with ...
