The effect of vitamin E on the lipid environment of rat hepatocyte membranes

open access: yesRegulatory Mechanisms in Biosystems, 2022
Tocopherol is one of the known beneficial natural antioxidants ensuring the optimal level of functioning of mammalian organisms. Numerous in vitro and in vivo experiments have shown that the biological role of vitamin E is to prevent the development of ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Microglia depletion diminishes key elements of the leukotriene pathway in the brain of Alzheimer’s Disease mice

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2020
Leukotrienes (LTs) contribute to the neuropathology of chronic neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), where they mediate neuroinflammation and neuronal cell-death.

Leukotriene mechanisms of allergic enterocolitis pathogenesis in young children

open access: yesZaporožskij Medicinskij Žurnal, 2018
Purpose of the study was to determine the parameters of lipid mediators of allergic inflammation (cysteinyl leukotrienes C4, D4, E4) by enzyme immunoassay in serum, saliva, urine of young children with allergic enterocolitis.Materials and methods.

Repeated allergen exposure reduce early phase airway response and leukotriene release despite upregulation of 5-lipoxygenase pathways

open access: yesClinical and Translational Allergy, 2012
Background Allergen induced early phase airway response and airway plasma exudation are predominantly mediated by inflammatory mast cell mediators including histamine, cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs) and thromboxane A2 (TXA2).

Cysteinyl-leukotrienes contribute to sputum eosinophil chemotactic activity in asthmatics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
peer reviewedBackground: Cysteinyl-leukotrienes are lipid derived mediators involved in asthma. They are able to stimulate eosinophil chemotaxis in vitro. Induced sputum from asthmatics has been shown to contain eosinophil chemotactic activity.

Cysteinyl leukotriene metabolism of human eosinophils in allergic disease

open access: yesAllergology International, 2020
Eosinophils are multifaceted immune cells with diverse functions that enhance allergic inflammation. Cysteinyl leukotrienes (cys-LTs), mainly synthesized in eosinophils, are a class of inflammatory lipid mediators produced via multiple enzymatic ...

Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 is dispensable for osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CysLTR1) is a G protein-coupled receptor for the inflammatory lipid mediators cysteinyl leukotrienes, which are involved in smooth muscle constriction, vascular permeability, and macrophage chemokine release. The Cysltr1

Role of the route of leukotrienes in an experimental model of oral mucositis induced by 5-fluorouracil [PDF]

open access: yesActa Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2017
Purpose: To investigate the participation of cysteinyl leukotrienes in the pathophysiology of oral mucositis. Methods: Oral mucositis was induced in hamsters using 5-fluorouracil (5-FU; 60 and 40 mg/kg; i.p., on days 1 and 2, respectively, and with ...
