Roles of hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids in diabetes (HETEs and diabetes)

open access: yesBiomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2022
Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs) are metabolites of arachidonate acid (AA) oxidized by lipoxygenases or cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP450). Since lipoxygenases and CYP450 enzymes widely exist in different organs and tissues, HETEs play significant roles in normal physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Mounting evidence has shown that HETEs

Expression and Function of Eicosanoid-Producing Cytochrome P450 Enzymes in Solid Tumors

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Oxylipins derived from the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) act as important paracrine and autocrine signaling molecules. A subclass of oxylipins, the eicosanoids, have a broad range of physiological outcomes in inflammation, the immune ...

Pleiotropic Functions of Cytochrome P450 Monooxygenase-Derived Eicosanoids in Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
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 ...

INTERCEPT Pathogen Reduction in Platelet Concentrates, in Contrast to Gamma Irradiation, Induces the Formation of trans-Arachidonic Acids and Affects Eicosanoid Release during Storage

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Pathogen inactivation techniques for blood products have been implemented to optimize clinically safe blood components supply. The INTERCEPT system uses amotosalen together with ultraviolet light wavelength A (UVA) irradiation.

Metabolism of oxygenated derivatives of arachidonic acid by Caco-2 cells.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1992
Monolayers of Caco-2 cells, a human enterocyte cell line, were incubated separately with 3H8-labeled preparations of three different lipid mediators of inflammation: 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid, 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid, and leukotriene B4 ...

Metabolism of 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid by Caco-2 cells.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
Monolayers of Caco-2 cells, a human enterocyte cell line, were incubated with [1-14C]15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE), a lipid mediator of inflammation, and [1-14C]arachidonic acid.

Identification of hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid components of schistosomal hemozoin [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2007
During the late stages of Schistosoma mansoni infection, adult schistosomes catabolize host erythrocytic hemoglobin. In order to evade the toxic effects of free heme, the blood fluke biomineralizes dimeric heme into an inert crystalline pigment called hemozoin.

Analysis of HETEs in human whole blood by chiral UHPLC-ECAPCI/HRMS

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2018
The biosynthesis of eicosanoids occurs enzymatically via lipoxygenases, cyclooxygenases, and cytochrome P450, or through nonenzymatic free radical reactions. The enzymatic routes are highly enantiospecific.

Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids released through the cytochrome P-450 pathway regulate 3T6 fibroblast growth

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Eicosanoids participate in the regulation of cellular proliferation. Thus, we observed that prostaglandin E2 interaction with membrane receptors is involved in the control of 3T6 fibroblast growth induced by serum.

A high throughput screen identifies potent and selective inhibitors to human epithelial 15-lipoxygenase-2. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes catalyze the hydroperoxidation of arachidonic acid and other polyunsaturated fatty acids to hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids with varying positional specificity to yield important biological signaling molecules.
