Eicosanoid control over antigen presenting cells in asthma [PDF]
Asthma is a common lung disease affecting 300 million people worldwide. Allergic asthma is recognized as a prototypical Th2 disorder, orchestrated by an aberrant adaptive CD4+ T helper (Th2/Th17) cell immune response against airborne allergens, that ...

Objective Transcript and protein abundance data were measured to compare biologic pathway effects in the peripheral blood of patients diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and dermatomyositis (DM) who receive immunosuppressive therapies. Methods Expression data from the peripheral blood of patients with SLE (n = 41) and DM (n = 14) were ...

Human bronchial fibroblasts express the 5-lipoxygenase pathway [PDF]
Background Fibroblasts are implicated in sub-epithelial fibrosis in remodeled asthmatic airways and contribute to airway inflammation by releasing cytokines and other mediators.

This study demonstrates that BNNT exposure disrupts lipid homeostasis in bronchial epithelial cell cultures and activates eicosanoid lipid biosynthesis, producing inflammatory lipid mediators like leukotrienes. These effects are more pronounced in asthmatic cell cultures compared to healthy ones.

Arachidonic acid epoxygenase and 12(S)-lipoxygenase: evidence of their concerted involvement in ductus arteriosus constriction to oxygen [PDF]
Oxygen promotes closure of the ductus arteriosus at birth. We have previously presented a scheme for oxygen action with a cytochrome P450 (CYP450) hemoprotein and endothelin-1 (ET-1) being, respectively, sensor and effector, and a hypothetical ...

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.

Opioids Inhibit Lateral Amygdala Pyramidal Neurons by Enhancing A Dendritic Potassium Current [PDF]
Pyramidal neurons in the lateral amygdala discharge trains of action potentials that show marked spike frequency adaptation, which is primarily mediated by activation of a slow calcium-activated potassium current.

12‐HETE is an Endogenous Modulator of BLT2 Triggering Vascular Degeneration, Dissection, and Rupture
In thoracic aortic dissection (TAD), elevated levels of the arachidonic acid metabolite 12‐HETE, produced by macrophage‐specific 12/15‐lipoxygenase (12/15‐LOX), bind to the BLT2 receptor on vascular cells. This activates the NOX‐1/ROS/NF‐κB signaling pathway, leading to IL‐6 release.

Interaction between Cannabinoid System and Toll-Like Receptors Controls Inflammation [PDF]
Since the discovery of the endocannabinoid system consisting of cannabinoid receptors, endogenous ligands, and biosynthetic and metabolizing enzymes, interest has been renewed in investigating the promise of cannabinoids as therapeutic agents.

The interplay between ferroptosis and the tumor immune microenvironment significantly influences the outcome of cancer immunotherapy. Inducing ferroptosis in tumor cells and immunosuppressive cells, while preventing ferroptosis in effector immune cells, emerges as a promising strategy to enhance the efficacy of immunotherapy. This review highlights the
