Fatty acids negatively regulate platelet function through formation of noncanonical 15‐lipoxygenase‐derived eicosanoids [PDF]

open access: goldPharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2023
The antiplatelet effect of polyunsaturated fatty acids is primarily attributed to its metabolism to bioactive metabolites by oxygenases, such as lipoxygenases (LOX).

Lipoxygenase in Wheat: Genetic Control and Impact on Stability of Lutein and Lutein Esters

open access: yesFoods, 2021
Preservation of lutein concentrations in wheat-based end-products during processing is important both for product quality and nutritional value. A key constituent involved in lutein degradation is endogenous lipoxygenase.

Regulated Spatial Distribution of Cyclooxygenases and Lipoxygenases in Crohn's Ulcer

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2006
Background and Aims. Arachidonic acid metabolism actively participates in the initiation, climaxing, and resolution phases of inflammation, and its close connection with inflammatory bowel diseases has been only recently discovered.

Lipoxygenase Inhibition by Plant Extracts

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Lipoxygenases are widespread enzymes that catalyze oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (linoleic, linolenic, and arachidonic acid) to produce hydroperoxides.

Lipoxygenase mRNA in cultured human epidermal and oral keratinocytes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1995
Although 15-lipoxygenase has not been purified from cultured human keratinocytes nor has cDNA coding for the protein been isolated from this source, this enzyme activity is implied by the finding of its stereospecific product in in vitro experiments ...

Analysis of 12/15-lipoxygenase metabolism of EPA and DHA with special attention to authentication of docosatrienes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2021
A proposed beneficial impact of highly unsaturated “fish oil” fatty acids is their conversion by lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes to specialized proresolving lipid mediators, including 12/15-LOX products from EPA and DHA.

Oxidative modification of human lipoproteins by lipoxygenases of different positional specificities

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1994
Cellular lipoxygenases have been implicated in foam cell formation during the early stages of atherogenesis. We studied the interaction of lipoxygenases of different positional specificities with human lipoproteins and found that the arachidonate 15 ...

Identification of the LOX Gene Family in Peanut and Functional Characterization of AhLOX29 in Drought Tolerance

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Lipoxygenases (LOXs) are a gene family of nonheme iron-containing dioxygenases that play important roles in plant development and defense responses. To date, a comprehensive analysis of LOX genes and their biological functions in response to abiotic ...
