Leukotriene B4 limits the effectiveness of fish oil in an animal model of asthma
This study aimed to evaluate the levels of eicosanoids derived from arachidonic acid (ARA) in the lungs of asthmatic rats supplemented with fish oil. The present data gives insight into the action of fish oil in asthma, related to its inability to modify

Pleiotropic Functions of Cytochrome P450 Monooxygenase-Derived Eicosanoids in Cancer
Eicosanoids are a class of functionally bioactive lipid mediators derived from the metabolism of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) mediated by multiple enzymes of three main branches, including cyclooxygenases (COXs), lipoxygenases (LOXs ...

Eicosanoids, which mediate various physiological and pathophysiological processes, are mainly formed from C20 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as arachidonic acid (AA,20:4n-6) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA,20:5n - 3) through cyclooxygenases (COX)

Chemoselective Metabolomics via a Modular Reactivity‐Encoding Platform
Conventional LC–MS underrepresents numerous metabolites due to heterogeneous ionization efficiencies and matrix interference. Here, we introduce a modular reactivity‐encoding platform (MREP) comprising four alkyne‐tagged probes that selectively derivatize key functional groups, followed by unified click‐chemistry capture to eliminate matrix components ...

Eicosanoids: physiology update and orthodontic implications
The eicosanoids are members of a group of substances comprising prostaglandins and Ieukotrienes which are released by a host of mechanical, thermal, bacterial and other insults and contribute importantly to the signs and genesis of inflammation (Brain ...
