Arachidonic acid promotes the binding of 5-lipoxygenase on nanodiscs containing 5-lipoxygenase activating protein in the absence of calcium-ions

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2020
Abstract Among the first steps in inflammation is the conversion of arachidonic acid (AA) stored in the cell membranes into leukotrienes. This occurs mainly in leukocytes and depends on the interaction of two proteins: 5-lipoxygenase (5LO), stored away from the nuclear membranes until use and 5-lipoxygenase activating

Aspirin modulates production of pro-inflammatory and pro-resolving mediators in endothelial cells

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Endothelial cells synthesize biochemical signals to coordinate a response to insults, resolve inflammation and restore barrier integrity. Vascular cells release a variety of vasoactive bioactive lipid metabolites during the inflammatory response and ...

ATP allosterically activates the human 5-lipoxygenase molecular mechanism of arachidonic acid and 5(S)-hydroperoxy-6(E),8(Z),11(Z),14(Z)-eicosatetraenoic acid. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
5-Lipoxygenase (5-LOX) reacts with arachidonic acid (AA) to first generate 5(S)-hydroperoxy-6(E),8(Z),11(Z),14(Z)-eicosatetraenoic acid [5(S)-HpETE] and then an epoxide from 5(S)-HpETE to form leukotriene A4, from a single polyunsaturated fatty acid ...

GC-TOF-MS-Based Metabolomics Analyses of Liver and Intestinal Contents in the Overfed vs. Normally-Fed Geese

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
No overt pathological symptoms are observed in the goose liver with severe steatosis, suggesting that geese may host unique protective mechanisms. Gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry-based metabolomics analyses of liver and intestinal ...

Dual role of the p38 \(MAPK/cPLA_2\) pathway in the regulation of platelet apoptosis induced by ABT-737 and strong platelet agonists [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
p38 Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase is involved in the apoptosis of nucleated cells. Although platelets are anucleated cells, apoptotic proteins have been shown to regulate platelet lifespan.

Hemodynamic role of arachidonate 12- and 5-lipoxygenases in nephrotoxic serum nephritis

open access: yesKidney International, 1993
The role of arachidonate 12- and 5-lipoxygenation eicosanoids in mediating acute changes in renal hemodynamics was assessed in nephrotoxic serum nephritis (NSN) in the rat. Following a single intravenous injection of nephrotoxic serum (NTS), significant decrements in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and renal blood flow (RBF) occurred at one hour, and ...

Emerging Role of Ferroptosis in Diabetes and Associated Complications: When Metabolic Dysregulation Meets Cell Death

open access: yesCell Proliferation, Volume 59, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study identifies ferroptosis as a key driver of diabetes and its complications via iron metabolism and lipid peroxidation, elucidates organelle interactions underlying cell vulnerability, and provides insights for targeted therapies against metabolic disorders.

Chronic and Binge Alcohol Ingestion Increases Truncated Oxidized Phosphatidylcholines in Mice Lungs Due to Increased Oxidative Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Heavy alcohol drinking has negative health effects in multiple organs. It predisposes lungs to inflammatory conditions associated with acute lung injury and increased incidence of pneumonia and sepsis, which may lead to death due to acute respiratory ...

Inhibition of Calcium‐Dependent Lipid Droplets Relocation of ACSL4‐PKCβ‐ALOX15 Complex Alleviates Ferroptosis and Acute Pancreatitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
This study identifies L‐type calcium channel blockers as novel ferroptosis inhibitors. It reveals that PKCβ, activated in calcium dependent manner, phosphorylates and activates ACSL4 and ALOX15, relocating them to lipid droplets to promote lethal lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.

Regulatory effects of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase on hepatic microsomal TG transfer protein activity and VLDL-triglyceride and apoB secretion in obese mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2008
As 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) is an emerging target in obesity and insulin resistance, we have investigated whether this arachidonate pathway is also implicated in the progression of obesity-related fatty liver disease. Our results show that 5-LO activity and
