Thromboxane A synthase-independent production of 12-hydroxyheptadecatrienoic acid, a BLT2 ligand[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
12(S)-hydroxyheptadeca-5Z,8E,10E-trienoic acid (12-HHT) has long been considered a by-product of thromboxane A2 (TxA2) biosynthesis with no biological activity.

Efficacy of omega‐3 fatty acids as a functional food: a multifaceted approach to health reinforcement

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Omega‐3 fatty acids (omega‐3s) are polyunsaturated fatty acids linked with numerous health benefits. Omega‐3s exhibit multifaceted activities through various mechanisms. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) alleviates oxidative stress by lowering reactive oxygen species and improving oxidative stress in brain tissues and acts against neurodegenerative ...

Adipokinetic hormone enhances nodule formation and phenoloxidase activation in adult locusts injected with bacterial lipopolysaccharide [PDF]

, 2003
Interactions between the locust endocrine and immune systems have been studied in vivo in relation to nodule formation and activation of the prophenoloxidase cascade in the haemolymph.

Cardioprotective effect of spirulina on cafeteria diet‐induced cardiac injury in silico and in vivo study

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, primarily due to its effects on lipid metabolism, oxidative stress, and inflammation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of spirulina (SP) on cafeteria diet (CD)‐induced myocardial oxidative stress and inflammation using biochemical, histological, and in ...

Paired Hierarchical Organization of 13-Lipoxygenases in Arabidopsis

Plants, 2016
Embryophyte genomes typically encode multiple 13-lipoxygenases (13-LOXs) that initiate the synthesis of wound-inducible mediators called jasmonates. Little is known about how the activities of these different LOX genes are coordinated.

Cardiac myocyte-specific knock-out of calcium-independent phospholipase A2γ (iPLA2γ) decreases oxidized fatty acids during ischemia/reperfusion and reduces infarct size [PDF]

, 2016
Calcium-independent phospholipase A(2)γ (iPLA(2)γ) is a mitochondrial enzyme that produces lipid second messengers that facilitate opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) and contribute to the production of oxidized fatty acids ...

Photooxidation of 18‐Carbon Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids to Prepare Mono‐Hydroxylated Octadecanoids

Lipids, EarlyView.
We developed a fast and simple one‐step synthetic strategy to produce mono‐hydroxylated metabolites based on the photosensitized oxidation of 18‐carbon polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). This approach could likely be extended to other PUFAs, suggesting that photosensitized oxidation could be employed to rapidly prepare hydroperoxides from multiple ...

Plasma oxylipin profiling identifies polyunsaturated vicinal diols as responsive to arachidonic acid and docosahexaenoic acid intake in growing piglets

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
The dose-responsiveness of plasma oxylipins to incremental dietary intake of arachidonic acid (20:4n-6; ARA) and docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3; DHA) was determined in piglets. Piglets randomly received one of six formulas (n = 8 per group) from days 3 to

PFOA Exposure Elicits Quantitative Lipidomic Changes in the Pancreas in a Mouse Model of Pancreatic Cancer

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the US and predicted to rise to second by 2030. Several risk factors have been identified as potential contributors to pancreatic cancer development including lifestyle factors and long‐term exposure to occupational and environmental carcinogens.
