Resolution of Pulmonary Inflammation Induced by Carbon Nanotubes and Fullerenes in Mice: Role of Macrophage Polarization

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Pulmonary exposure to certain engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) causes chronic lesions like fibrosis and cancer in animal models as a result of unresolved inflammation. Resolution of inflammation involves the time-dependent biosynthesis of lipid mediators (

Probing the Electrostatic and Steric Requirements for Substrate Binding in Human Platelet-Type 12-Lipoxygenase. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Human platelet ALOX12 (hALOX12 or h12-LOX) has been implicated in a variety of human diseases. The present study investigates the active site of hALOX12 to more thoroughly understand how it positions the substrate and achieves nearly perfect regio- and ...

miR-155 Is a Positive Regulator of FcεRI-Induced Cyclooxygenase-2 Expression and Cytokine Production in Mast Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Allergy, 2022
MicroRNA-155 (miR-155) has been implicated in IgE-dependent allergic disease including asthma and atopic dermatitis. A few roles for miR-155 have been described in mast cells and some specifically related to IgE receptor signaling, but it is not ...

Five-lipoxygenase-activating protein-mediated CYLD attenuation is a candidate driver in hepatic malignant lesion

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an inflammation-associated cancer. However, the lipid pro-inflammatory mediators have only been seldom investigated in HCC pathogenesis. Cylindromatosis (CYLD) attenuation is involved in hepatocarcinogenesis.

Microsomal glutathione transferase 1 confers cisplatin resistance of non-small cell lung cancer via interaction with arachidonate lipoxygenase 5 to repress ferroptosis [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences
Objective(s): Cisplatin (DDP) resistance remains a primary cause of chemotherapy failure and recurrence of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Abnormal high microsomal glutathione transferase 1 (MGST1) expression has been found in DDP-resistant NSCLC ...

Inhibition of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase by phenolic compounds.

open access: yesChemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 1986
Some cinnamoyl-β-phenethylamine derivatives, gingerols, diarylheptanoids and acyldopamines were tested for their inhibitory effects on the 5-lipoxygenase of RBL-1 cells. Compounds containing a catechol group together with a lipophilic group strongly inhibited 5-lipoxygenase.

A synthetic dl-nordihydroguaiaretic acid (Nordy), inhibits angiogenesis, invasion and proliferation of glioma stem cells within a zebrafish xenotransplantation model. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The zebrafish (Danio rerio) and their transparent embryos represent a promising model system in cancer research. Compared with other vertebrate model systems, we had previously shown that the zebrafish model provides many advantages over mouse or chicken

In Vivo Effect of a Synthetic Amniotic Fluid on Fetal Lung and Gastrointestinal Tract: A Pre‐Clinical Rodent Model

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Amnioinfusions in anhydramnios aim to promote fetal lung development, but currently used fluids (Normal Saline [NS], Lactated Ringer's [LR]) fail to mimic the intrauterine environment and increase reactive oxygen species (ROS). We developed a synthetic amniotic fluid (Amnio‐well, AW) designed to reduce intrauterine ROS.
