Systemic inflammation has been implicated in the pathobiology of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Here, we examine the association of upstream mediators of inflammation as ascertained by fatty-acid derived eicosanoid and eicosanoid-

This study reports on a putative eicosanoid biosynthesis pathway in Drosophila melanogaster and challenges the currently held view that mechanistic routes to synthesize eicosanoid or eicosanoid-like biolipids do not exist in insects, since to date ...

Abstract This article describes the pathways of eicosanoid synthesis, eicosanoid receptors, the action of eicosanoids in different physiological systems, the roles of eicosanoids in selected diseases, and the major inhibitors of eicosanoid synthesis and action. Eicosanoids are oxidised derivatives of 20-carbon polyunsaturated fatty acids

The association of eicosanoids and eicosanoid-related metabolites with pulmonary hypertension
Background Eicosanoids are bioactive lipids that regulate systemic inflammation and exert vasoactive effects. Specific eicosanoid metabolites have previously been associated with pulmonary hypertension (PH), yet their role remains incompletely understood.

Background Chronic neuroinflammation is one of the hallmarks of late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD) dementia pathogenesis. Carrying the apolipoprotein ε4 ( APOE4 ) allele has been associated with an accentuated response to brain inflammation and ...

Monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) drive the inflammatory response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and they are a major source of eicosanoids in airway inflammation.

Eicosanoid Signaling in Insect Immunology: New Genes and Unresolved Issues
This paper is focused on eicosanoid signaling in insect immunology. We begin with eicosanoid biosynthesis through the actions of phospholipase A2, responsible for hydrolyzing the C18 polyunsaturated fatty acid, linoleic acid (18:2n-6), from cellular ...
