METHOD FOR MODULATING EICOSANOID MEDIATED IMMUNE RESPONSES IN ARTHROPODS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The invention is directed to compositions which alter the health of invertebrate organisms by affecting eicosanoid mediated immune responses, and methods of using the compositions.

Production of eicosapentaenoic and arachidonic acids by an antarctic bacterium: response to growth temperature

open access: yes, 1997
A psychrophilic bacterium, designated strain 651, was isolated from Antarctic sea ice collected from Prydz Bay, Eastern Antarctica. The fatty acid composition of the strain was characteristic of the Flavobacterium-Cytophaga-Microscillia group.

Arachidonic Acid-metabolizing Cytochrome P450 Enzymes Are Targets of ω-3 Fatty Acids*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2010
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) protect against cardiovascular disease by largely unknown mechanisms. We tested the hypothesis that EPA and DHA may compete with arachidonic acid (AA) for the conversion by cytochrome P450 (CYP ...

Temperature and time-dependent effects of delayed blood processing on oxylipin concentrations in human plasma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019

Plasmalogens in Innate Immune Cells: From Arachidonate Signaling to Ferroptosis

open access: yesBiomolecules
Polyunsaturated fatty acids such as arachidonic acid are indispensable components of innate immune signaling. Plasmalogens are glycerophospholipids with a vinyl ether bond in the sn-1 position of the glycerol backbone instead of the more common sn-1 ...

Nature's Starships. I. Observed Abundances and Relative Frequencies of Amino Acids in Meteorites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The class of meteorites called carbonaceous chondrites are examples of material from the solar system which have been relatively unchanged from the time of their initial formation. These meteorites have been classified according to the temperatures and physical conditions of their parent planetesimals.

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and inflammatory processes: nutrition or pharmacology?

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2013
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are n-3 fatty acids found in oily fish and fish oil supplements. These fatty acids are able to inhibit partly a number of aspects of inflammation including leucocyte chemotaxis, adhesion molecule

Production of a soluble and functional recombinant apolipoproteinD in the Pichia pastoris expression system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
ApolipoproteinD (ApoD) is a human glycoprotein from the lipocalin family. ApoD contains a conserved central motif of an 8-stranded antiparallel β-sheet, which forms a beta-barrel that can be used for transport and storage of diverse hydrophobic ligands ...

Metabolism of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and modification of phospholipids in cultured rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1985
The metabolism of the linolenic acid family (n-3) of fatty acids, e.g., linolenic, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic acids, in cultured smooth muscle cells from rabbit aorta was compared to the metabolism of linoleic and arachidonic acids.

Ameliorative effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids against palmitic acid-induced insulin resistance in L6 skeletal muscle cells

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2012
Background Fatty acid-induced insulin resistance and impaired glucose uptake activity in muscle cells are fundamental events in the development of type 2 diabetes and hyperglycemia.
