Salicylic Acid, a Plant Hormone, Suppresses Phytophagous Insect Immune Response by Interrupting HMG-Like DSP1

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Salicylic acid is a plant hormone that can mediate various plant physiological processes. Salicylic acid can bind to human high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and interrupt its role in mediating immune responses. Dorsal switch protein 1 (DSP1) is an insect

Plantar osteochondral fragments in young Standardbreds are associated with minimal joint inflammation at the time of surgical removal

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 33-41, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Plantar osteochondral fragments (POF) are common but their effect on joint health of young Standardbreds in race training is largely unknown. Objectives Evaluate the inflammatory effects of POF in metatarsophalangeal joints of young Standardbreds as a step towards developing evidence‐based recommendations for surgical removal. Study

Structural Manipulation of Eicosanoid Receptors and Cellular Signaling

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2007
Eicosanoids are lipid mediators derived from the metabolism of arachidonic acid. These agents are locally released and activate different cell membrane receptors, and the latter are part of the G-protein coupled receptor family.

Immunoregulatory and anti-inflammatory effects of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998
1. Fish oils are rich in the long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), eicosapentaenoic (20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic (22:6n-3) acids. Linseed oil and green plant tissues are rich in the precursor fatty acid, a-linolenic acid (18:3n-3).

The effects of FTO gene rs9939609 polymorphism on the association between breast cancer and dietary intake

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 26, Issue 23, Page 5794-5806, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Breast cancer (BC) is the leading cause of cancer‐related deaths in females worldwide and is related to genetic and environmental factors. Dietary components may strongly influence the risk of BC. A possible association was also reported between the fat mass and obesity‐associated (FTO) single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and BC. This study

Investigation of the Association between High Arachidonic Acid Synthesis and Colorectal Polyp Incidence within a Generally Healthy UK Population: A Mendelian Randomization Approach

open access: yesLifestyle Genomics, 2022
Background: Arachidonic acid (ARA) is associated with colorectal cancer (CRC), a major public health concern. However, it is uncertain if ARA contributes to the development of colorectal polyps which are pre-malignant precursors of CRC.
