Meteoritic Abundances of Fatty Acids and Potential Reaction Pathways in Planetesimals [PDF]
Icarus, 2019, 319, 685-700, 2018 The origin of fatty acids on the prebiotic Earth is important as they likely formed the encapsulating membranes of the first protocells. Carbon-rich meteorites (i.e., carbonaceous chondrites) such as Murchison and Tagish Lake are well known to contain these molecules, and their delivery to the early planet by intense early meteorite bombardments ...

Eicosapentaenoic acid attenuates obesity-related hepatocellular carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis, 2017 By using a carcinogen-injected dietary obesity model, we demonstrated that eicosapentaenoic acid attenuated the development of hepatocellular carcinoma associated with obesity by inhibiting the activation of STAT3 and subsequent tumor cell proliferation ...

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.Biotransformation pathway from polyunsaturated fatty acids into dihydroxy fatty acids as lipid mediators by Escherichia coli expressing Chlamydomonas incerta 15S‐lipoxygenase with double oxygenating activity. The 15S‐lipoxygenase was the most efficient for the simultaneous production of resolvin D5 (7S,17S‐dihydroxydocosahexaenoic acid, 7S,17S‐DiHDHA ...

Rapeseeds a Rich Source of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids
Proceedings, 2019 In human diet, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), have an essential role in optimal brain functions and stroke prevention, specially, omega-3 fatty acids, e.g., 9,12,15-linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3), 5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5), and 4,7 ...

Lipid Metabolism and Immune Function: Chemical Tools for Insights into T‐Cell Biology
ChemBioChem, EarlyView.This review explores how lipids regulate immune responses, particularly in T‐cell function. Advances in metabolomics and proteomics provide insights into lipid‐mediated immunity. Fluorescent lipids enable single‐cell analysis of lipid uptake and metabolism.

Total Synthesis of Ectocarpin A
European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.A fully enantioselective total synthesis of ectocarpin A, a new oxylipin, has been achieved in 12 steps starting from tetrahydro‐1H‐cyclopentafuranone. Key steps include the formation of the chiral core, diastereoselective epoxidation, enzymatic desymmetrization of a 1,4‐diol, epimerization, and strategic Wittig and Julia‐Kocienski olefinations to ...
