Engineering a lipoxygenase from cyclocybe aegerita towards long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids
The basidiomycetous lipoxygenase Lox1 from Cyclocybe aegerita catalyzes the oxygenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) with a high preference towards the C18-PUFA linoleic acid (C18:2 (ω-6)).

The effect of N-stearoylethanolamine on liver phospholipid composition of rats with insulin resistance caused by alimentary obesity [PDF]
We used alimentary obesity-induced insulin resistance (IR) model in rats to investigate the influence of N-stearoylethanolamine on the content of phospholipids and their fatty acid composition.

Measuring Peripheral Tissue DHA Turnover Using a Novel <sup>13</sup>C Enrichment Technique. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Recently, through the use of compound‐specific isotope analysis (CSIA), our lab validated the utility of 13C enrichment (δ13C) of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) by using a very high δ13C in a diet switch study by measuring brain, liver, and plasma DHA turnover and half‐lives via high‐precision gas chromatography combustion isotope ratio mass ...

Daily egg intake may reduce sensitisation to common allergenic foods among six- to nine-month-old south African infants: A randomized controlled trial. [PDF]
Abstract Background This study aimed to investigate sensitization to eggs and other common allergenic foods, allergic symptoms, and fatty acid status among infants after introducing daily eggs as a complementary food for 6 months. Methods This secondary analysis used data from a randomized controlled trial of 500 infants aged 6–9 months in Jouberton ...

Molluscicidal Activity of <i>Camellia Sinensis</i> (Green Tea) and <i>Camellia sinensis</i> var. Assamica (Purple Tea) Extracts Against <i>Biomphalaria pfeifferi,</i> the Major Vector Snail of Human Schistosomiasis in Sub-Saharan Africa. [PDF]
Freshwater pulmonate snails are prevalent across Kenya and act as intermediate hosts for trematode parasites, some of which are snail vectors for human schistosomiasis. Chemical molluscicides have rarely been used routinely in Kenya to control snails due to high costs of manufacture and the subsequent environmental concerns associated with their use ...

In Vitro Biosynthetic Pathway Investigations of Neuroprotectin D1 (NPD1) and Protectin DX (PDX) by Human 12-Lipoxygenase, 15-Lipoxygenase-1, and 15-Lipoxygenase2 [PDF]
In this paper, human platelet 12-lipoxygenase [h12-LOX (ALOX12)], human reticulocyte 15-lipoxygenase-1 [h15-LOX-1 (ALOX15)], and human epithelial 15-lipoxygenase-2 [h15-LOX-2 (ALOX15B)] were observed to react with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and produce ...
