Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of lipoxygenase genes in Tartary buckwheat
Lipoxygenases (LOXs; EC1.13.11.12) are widely involved in plant growth, development, maturation, senescence and stress resistance. LOXs have been studied in many crop species but not in Tartary buckwheat [Fagopyrum tataricum (L.) Gaertn.].

Phase 2 trial of montelukast for prevention of pain in sickle cell disease. [PDF]
Cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) are lipid mediators of inflammation. In patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), levels of CysLTs are increased compared with controls and associated with a higher rate of hospitalization for pain. We tested the hypothesis

Tertiary alkylamines as nucleophiles in substitution reactions at heteroaromatic halide during the synthesis of the highly potent pirinixic acid derivative 2-(4-chloro-6-(2,3-dimethylphenylamino)pyrimidin-2-ylthio)octanoic acid (YS-121) [PDF]
YS-121 [2-(4-chloro-6-(2,3-dimethylphenylamino)pyrimidin-2-ylthio)octanoic acid] is the result of target-oriented structural derivatization of pirinixic acid.

Abstract BACKGROUND Selecting an optimal chromatography resin during biopharmaceutical downstream process development is a great challenge. This is especially the case for recombinant subunit vaccines, where product properties vary greatly and recovery often involves cell lysis, which yields a complex mixture of different host cell materials. Host cell

A new series of 2,4,6-trihydroxy-3-geranyl-acetophenone (tHGA) analogues were synthesized and evaluated for their lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibitory activity. Prenylated analogues 4a–g (half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values ranging from 35

Methyl jasmonate and cis jasmone induce apoptosis in Pc-3 and LncaP prostate cancer lines
Methyl jasmonate (MJ) and cis jasmone (CJ), lipid-derived plant stress hormones, were studied for their effects against both hormone dependent (LNCaP) and hormone independent (PC3) human prostate cancer cell lines. Both 2 mM MJ or CJ inhibited the growth

ATP allosterically activates the human 5-lipoxygenase molecular mechanism of arachidonic acid and 5(S)-hydroperoxy-6(E),8(Z),11(Z),14(Z)-eicosatetraenoic acid. [PDF]
5-Lipoxygenase (5-LOX) reacts with arachidonic acid (AA) to first generate 5(S)-hydroperoxy-6(E),8(Z),11(Z),14(Z)-eicosatetraenoic acid [5(S)-HpETE] and then an epoxide from 5(S)-HpETE to form leukotriene A4, from a single polyunsaturated fatty acid ...

Abstract Background Inadequate nutrition is a leading factor in global health challenges, particularly in sub‐Saharan Africa, where malnutrition and hunger remain widespread. Fig‐leaf gourd (Cucurbita ficifolia), a nutrient‐dense African leafy vegetable, is readily available to low‐income populations and holds promise for improving micronutrient intake
