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

Frontiers 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

Structural Manipulation of Eicosanoid Receptors and Cellular Signaling

The 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.

Chronic dietary n-6 PUFA deprivation leads to conservation of arachidonic acid and more rapid loss of DHA in rat brain phospholipids[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2015
To determine how the level of dietary n-6 PUFA affects the rate of loss of arachidonic acid (ARA) and DHA in brain phospholipids, male rats were fed either a deprived or adequate n-6 PUFA diet for 15 weeks postweaning, and then subjected to an ...

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

Brazilian 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).

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

Lifestyle 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.

Amyloid proteotoxicity initiates an inflammatory response blocked by cannabinoids. [PDF]

, 2016
The beta amyloid (Aβ) and other aggregating proteins in the brain increase with age and are frequently found within neurons. The mechanistic relationship between intracellular amyloid, aging and neurodegeneration is not, however, well understood.

An anti-inflammatory eicosanoid switch mediates the suppression of type-2 inflammation by helminth larval products

Science Translational Medicine, 2020
A helminth larval extract and its component Hpb glutamate dehydrogenase induce an anti-inflammatory mediator switch to suppress type-2 inflammation. Tamping down type-2 inflammation Type-2 immunity in allergy and asthma is driven by nonredundant pathways,
