Mechanism of NaCl transport-stimulated prostaglandin formation in MDCK cells [PDF]
, 1987 Recently we have found that stimulation of NaCl transport in high-resistance MDCK cells enhances their prostaglandin formation. In the present study, we investigated the mechanisms by which prostaglandin formation could be linked to the ion transport in ...

Modulation of guanosine triphosphatase activity of G proteins by arachidonic acid in rat Leydig cell membranes [PDF]
, 2000 Previous results from our group have indicated that arachidonic acid decrease cAMP production through a modification of heterotrimericGproteins.\ud In the present study, we have characterized the high affinity GTPase activity present in Leydig cell ...

Arachidonic acid enhances turnover of the dermal skeleton: studies on zebrafish scales.
PLoS ONE, 2014 In fish nutrition, the ratio between omega-3 and omega-6 poly-unsaturated fatty acids influences skeletal development. Supplementation of fish oils with vegetable oils increases the content of omega-6 fatty acids, such as arachidonic acid in the diet ...

Basal and inducible anti-inflammatory epoxygenase activity in endothelial cells [PDF]
, 2014 The roles of CYP lipid-metabolizing pathways in endothelial cells are poorly understood. Human endothelial cells expressed CYP2J2 and soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) mRNA and protein.

Arachidonic acid-induced release of calcium in permeabilized human neutrophils [PDF]
, 1987 The addition of arachidonic acid to a suspension of digitonin-permeabilized human neutrophils was found to induce, in a dose-dependent manner (ED50 about 15 μM), the release of calcium from internal stores.

CYP-omega-hydroxylation-dependent metabolites of arachidonic acid inhibit the basolateral 10pS chloride channel in the rat thick ascending limb [PDF]
, 2009 Metabolites of arachidonic acid influence sodium chloride (NaCl) transport in the thick ascending limb. Because a 10pS Cl channel is the major type of chloride channel in the basolateral membrane of this nephron segment, we explored the effect of ...

Arachidonic Acid and the Brain [PDF]
The Journal of Nutrition, 2008 Kinetic methods in unanesthetized rodents have shown that turnover rates of arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in brain membrane phospholipids are rapid and energy consuming and that phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and acyl-CoA synthetase enzymes that regulate turnover are specific for one or the other PUFA.

Arachidonic acid in cell signaling [PDF]
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1993 Important advances have recently been made in our understanding of the arachidonic acid cascade. The molecular characterization of different forms of phospholipase A2 indicates that multiple pathways are involved in the release of arachidonic acid evoked by physiological or pathological stimuli.

The Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Arachidonic Acid and Docosahexaenoic Acid Induce Mouse Dendritic Cells Maturation but Reduce T-Cell Responses In Vitro. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) might regulate T-cell activation and lineage commitment. Here, we measured the effects of omega-3 (n-3), n-6 and n-9 fatty acids on the interaction between dendritic cells (DCs) and naïve T cells. Spleen DCs
