Linoleic acid participates in the response to ischemic brain injury through oxidized metabolites that regulate neurotransmission. [PDF]
Linoleic acid (LA; 18:2 n-6), the most abundant polyunsaturated fatty acid in the US diet, is a precursor to oxidized metabolites that have unknown roles in the brain.

GRKs and arrestins: Nomenclature and functions in GPCR‐dependent and ‐independent signalling
G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) and arrestins play a critical role in the regulation of GPCR signalling. Historic names of mammalian GRKs were replaced by systematic ones in the 1990s; however, both kinds of names are currently in use for mammalian arrestins.

Leukocyte adhesion and recruitment, and alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency: a report from ATS 2001, May 18-23, San Francisco [PDF]
The program at this year's American Thoracic Society international conference included over 300 scientific and clinical symposia. In this report I have reviewed the data presented on two important areas of lung inflammation, namely leukocyte recruitment ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Polymorphisms of group VIA calcium‐independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2β or PLA2G6) are associated with Type‐2 diabetes, blood lipids and inflammation. Global deficiency in iPLA2β‐null mice elicited protection against hepatic steatosis but not hepatic inflammation after high‐fat diet (HFD) feeding.

Formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) and FPR2/ALX are known to control neutrophil chemotaxis in response to various ligands. In this study, we investigated the inhibitory mechanism of compound 43 (Cpd43), an FPR1 and FPR2/ALX dual agonist, on human ...

Chronic septic arthritis involves intracellular bacterial persistence and lipid‐immune crosstalk via the PGRN‐BMP lysosomal axis. A dual‐targeting nanoparticle system (NPs@PGRN) restores lysosomal bactericidal function, reduces bacterial burden, and reprograms macrophage immunity, offering a novel therapeutic strategy. ABSTRACT Chronic septic arthritis,

ABSTRACT Thrombocytopenia and leukopenia are among the most common hematological abnormalities in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD), particularly among those with cirrhosis. Thrombocytopenia and leukopenia are associated with increased risks of bleeding, infection, treatment delay, and poor clinical outcomes.

気管支喘息の臨床分類とその細胞性および液性因子の特徴 [PDF]
Characteristics of each asthma type classified by clinical symptoms and findings were studied in 72 patients with bronchial asthma. 1. Ventilatory function tests showed that the values of % MMF, % V(50) and % V(25) were significantly lower in patients ...

Enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of leukotriene B4
Ten years have elapsed since the discovery and structural elucidation of the leukotriene compounds (1-5). The leukotrienes constitute a group of potent biologically active arachidonic acid-derived metabolites which are implicated as mediators of immediate hypersensitivity reactions and inflammation.
