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

Dietary arachidonic acid increases deleterious effects of amyloid-β oligomers on learning abilities and expression of AMPA receptors: putative role of the ACSL4-cPLA2 balance

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2017
Background Polyunsaturated fatty acids play a crucial role in neuronal function, and the modification of these compounds in the brain could have an impact on neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Three-year tracking of fatty acid composition of plasma phospholipids in healthy children [PDF]

, 2007
Objectives: The fatty acid composition of plasma phospholipids reflects the dietary fatty acid intake as well as endogenous turnover. We aimed at investigating the potential tracking of plasma phospholipid fatty acid composition in children that ...

Phospholipid, arachidonate and eicosanoid signaling in schizophrenia

Oilseeds and fats, crops and lipids, 2016
This paper reviews the potential role of arachidonic acid in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. We discuss how abnormal levels of arachidonic acid may arise, and how dysregulation of signaling molecules derived from it have the potential to disrupt ...

Fate of linoleic, arachidonic, and docosa-7,10,13,16-tetraenoic acids in rat testicles

Journal of Lipid Research, 1973
A comparative study was made on the fate of linoleic, arachidonic, and docosa-7,10,13,16-tetraenoic acids in various subcellular fractions of liver and testis from rats of different ages.

Cytochrome P450 and arachidonic acid bioactivation: molecular and functional properties of the arachidonate monooxygenase

Journal of Lipid Research, 2000
The demonstration of in vivo arachidonic acid epoxidation and ω-hydroxylation established the cytochrome P450 epoxygenase and ω/ω–1 hydroxylase as formal metabolic pathways and as members of the arachidonate metabolic cascade. The characterization of the

Endogenous Epoxygenases Are Modulators of Monocyte/Macrophage Activity [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Arachidonic acid is metabolized through three major metabolic pathways, the cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase and CYP450 enzyme systems. Unlike cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenases, the role of CYP450 epoxygenases in monocyte/macrophage-mediated ...

Measurement of arachidonic acid in the plasma by gas-liquid chromatography-flame ionization using dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid as an internal standard.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1979
A gas-liquid chromatography-flame ionization method is described for measuring arachidonic acid in plasma using dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid as an internal standard.

FADS1-arachidonic acid axis enhances arachidonic acid metabolism by altering intestinal microecology in colorectal cancer

Nature Communications, 2023
Colonocyte metabolism shapes the microbiome. Metabolites are the main mediators of information exchange between intestine and microbial communities. Arachidonic acid (AA) is an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid and its role in colorectal cancer (CRC ...

Dietary arachidonic acid: a Janus face actor in brain and Alzheimer’s disease?

Oilseeds and fats, crops and lipids, 2018
Arachidonic acid is the second polyunsaturated fatty acid in brain and the first one belonging to the ω-6 series. Dietary intakes of arachidonic are between 50 and 300 mg/day in western diets but they might be underestimated. Triglycerides from fat would
