Blood metabolic fingerprinting of rats, subjected to subchronic lead exposure
Introduction Environmental pollution with heavy metals is vital issue in the present time. Lead, as one of the environmental contaminators, deserves attention due to its applicability in human activity and its xenobiotic character. Methods In this study

Caloric restriction reveals a metabolomic and lipidomic signature in liver of male mice [PDF]
Lipid composition, particularly membrane unsaturation, has been proposed as being a lifespan determinant, but it is currently unknown whether caloric restriction (CR), an accepted life-extending intervention, affects cellular lipid profiles.

Cellular Oxygenation of 12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid and 15-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid by 5-Lipoxygenase Is Stimulated by 5-Lipoxygenase-activating Protein [PDF]
It has been proposed that 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO)-activating protein (FLAP) is an arachidonate transfer protein for leukotriene biosynthesis. Using the Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) insect cells, we demonstrate that FLAP causes a large stimulation (190-fold) of the conversion of 12(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12(S)-HETE) to 5, 12-diHETE when co ...

N–3 essential fatty acid deficiency affects a number of biological and physiological processes. In this study, we investigated the effect of n–3 essential fatty acid status on two key pineal biochemical functions, melatonin production and lipoxygenation,

Background: It was previously shown that a bodyweight reduction among patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFLD) was connected to the lower concentration of arachidonic and linoleic acid derivatives in their blood.

Arachidonic Acid as a Possible Negative Feedback Inhibitor of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors on Neurons [PDF]
Neuronal acetylcholine receptors, being highly permeable to calcium, are likely to regulate calcium-dependent events in neurons. Arachidonic acid is a membrane-permeant second messenger that can be released from membrane phospholipids by phospholipases ...

Regulation of KCa2.3 andendothelium-dependent hyperpolarization (EDH) in the rat middle cerebral artery: the role of lipoxygenase metabolites and isoprostanes [PDF]
Background and Purpose. In rat middle cerebral arteries, endothelium-dependent hyperpolarization (EDH) is mediated by activation of calcium-activated potassium(KCa) channels specifically KCa2.3 and KCa3.1.
