SWATH Differential Abundance Proteomics and Cellular Assays Show In Vitro Anticancer Activity of Arachidonic Acid- and Docosahexaenoic Acid-Based Monoacylglycerols in HT-29 Colorectal Cancer Cells [PDF]
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common and mortal types of cancer. There is increasing evidence that some polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) exercise specific inhibitory actions on cancer cells through different mechanisms, as a previous ...

Involvement of leukotriene pathway in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury and septic and non-septic shock. [PDF]
The 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway is responsible for the production of leukotrienes (LTs), inflammatory lipid mediators which play a role in innate immunity. More recently, a pivotal role of LTs in ischemia-reperfusion and shock injury has been suggested.

ABSTRACT Porcelia macrocarpa is a Brazilian plant species belonging to the Annonaceae family. To date, more than 190 compounds have been identified and/or isolated from this species, with terpenoids comprising the majority (62%). Alkaloids represent the second most abundant class (11%), followed by steroids (4%), acetogenins (4%), fatty acids (4 ...

Eicosapentaenoic acid and prostacyclin production by cultured human endothelial cells.
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells incorporate eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) when this fatty acid is present in the culture medium. From 30 to 70% of the uptake remains as EPA, and much of the remainder is elongated to docosapentaenoic acid. All of the

ABSTRACT This study isolated a compound with anti‐inflammatory properties from Musa × paradisiaca fruit peels. The methanol extract was partitioned, and the hexane fraction with the best bioactivity was subjected to column chromatography before characterization via Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), UV–visible (UV–VIS) and NMR analysis.

Arachidonic acid cytochrome P450 epoxygenase pathway
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) epoxygenases convert arachidonic acid to four epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) regioisomers, 5,6-, 8,9-, 11,12-, and 14,15-EET, that function as autacrine and paracrine mediators.
