Proresolving lipid mediators enhance PMN-mediated bacterial clearance [PDF]
Host responses to bacterial infection are protective, yet without timely resolution they can lead to uncontrolled infection, with systemic engagement and multiple organ failure. In PNAS, Sekheri et al. (1) report the property of specific lipid mediators to counteract the delay tactics of bacterial DNA released from proliferating or dying bacteria as ...

Psoriasis is a skin disease characterized by epidermal hyperplasia and an inappropriate activation of the adaptive immunity. A dysregulation of the skin’s lipid mediators is reported in the disease with a predominance of the inflammatory cascade derived ...

Spartin-mediated lipid transfer facilitates lipid droplet turnover
AbstractLipid droplets (LDs) are organelles critical for energy storage and membrane lipid homeostasis, whose number and size are carefully regulated in response to cellular conditions. The molecular mechanisms underlying lipid droplet biogenesis and degradation, however, are not well understood.

Occurrence and biological activity of palmitoleic acid isomers in phagocytic cells
Recent studies have highlighted the role of palmitoleic acid [16:1n-7 (cis-9-hexadecenoic acid)] as a lipid hormone that coordinates cross-talk between liver and adipose tissue and exerts anti-inflammatory protective effects on hepatic steatosis and ...

Although polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have gained attention because of their physiological effects on inflammation and stress, their derivatives, termed lipid mediators, have been rarely examined, especially in laying hens. In this study, we aimed

Fracture healing and lipid mediators [PDF]
Lipid mediators regulate bone regeneration during fracture healing. Prostaglandins and leukotrienes are well-known lipid mediators that regulate inflammation and are synthesized from the Ω-6 fatty acid, arachidonic acid. Cyclooxygenase (COX-1 or COX-2) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) catalyze the initial enzymatic steps in the synthesis of prostaglandins and

Lipid mediators and allergic diseases [PDF]
To review the basic science and translational relevance of lipid mediators in the pathobiology of allergic diseases.PubMed was searched for articles using the key terms lipid mediator, prostaglandin, prostanoid, leukotriene, thromboxane, asthma, and allergic inflammation.Articles were selected based on their relevance to the goals of this review ...

The ethanolamide metabolite of DHA, docosahexaenoylethanolamine, shows immunomodulating effects in mouse peritoneal and RAW264.7 macrophages: evidence for a new link between fish oil and inflammation [PDF]
Several mechanisms have been proposed for the positive health effects associated with dietary consumption of long-chain n-3 PUFA (n-3 LC-PUFA) including DHA (22 : 6n-3) and EPA (20 : 5n-3).

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Association between high dietary intake of the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid and reduced risk of Crohn's disease [PDF]
Background: There are plausible mechanisms for how dietary docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), an n−3 polyunsaturated fatty acid, could prevent Crohn's disease (CD).
