Association of SPHK1 polymorphisms with Alzheimer's disease susceptibility: Functional impact of the rs2247856 SNP on transcriptional efficiency

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia: Translational Research &Clinical Interventions, Volume 12, Issue 3, July/September 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1) has been implicated in the regulation of pro‐resolving lipid mediators relevant to neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, no studies have evaluated the genetic association between SPHK1 polymorphisms and AD susceptibility.

A defect in Δ6 and Δ5 desaturases may be a factor in the initiation and progression of insulin resistance, the metabolic syndrome and ischemic heart disease in South Asians

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2010
The high incidence of insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome in South Asians remains unexplained. I propose that a defect in the activity of Δ6 and Δ5 desaturases and consequent low plasma and tissue concentrations of polyunsaturated fatty acids ...

Phospholipid derived mediators and glomerulonephritis

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1993
The contributions made by the various eicosanoids, PAF, the HETES and the lipoxins to the pathophysiology of glomerulonephritis is reviewed. A case can be made for clinical trials of PAF, leukotriene and thromboxane antagonists.

Can vagus nerve stimulation halt or ameliorate rheumatoid arthritis and lupus?

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2011
Acetylcholine, the principal vagus neurotransmitter, inhibits inflammation by suppressing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines through a mechanism dependent on the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunit (alpha7nAChR) that explains why vagus ...

Evidence for a 5(6)-epoxytetraene intermediate in the biosynthesis of lipoxins in human leukocytes Conversion into lipoxin A by cytosolic epoxide hydrolase

open access: yes, 1986
The existence of a 15(S)-hydroxy-5,6-oxido-7,9,13-trans 11-cis-eicosatetraenoic acid intermediate in the biosyntheses of lipoxins A and B has recently been proposed.

Beneficial role of bioactive lipids in the pathobiology, prevention, and management of HBV, HCV and alcoholic hepatitis, NAFLD, and liver cirrhosis: A review

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2019
It has been suggested that hepatitis B virus (HBV)- and hepatitis C virus (HCV)-induced hepatic damage and cirrhosis and associated hypoalbuminemia, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) are due to an ...

Astrocyte-derived lipoxins A4 and B4 promote neuroprotection from acute and chronic injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Astrocytes perform critical non-cell autonomous roles following CNS injury that involve either neurotoxic or neuroprotective effects. Yet the nature of potential prosurvival cues has remained unclear.

Molecular Circuits of Resolution in Renal Disease

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2010
Inflammation is a common feature of renal pathology. Lipid mediators, such as lipoxins, resolvins, and protectins, can actively promote the resolution of inflammation by inhibiting polymorphonuclear cell infiltration to the site of inflammation, shifting
