Bioactive Peptides and Protein Hydrolysates as Lipoxygenase Inhibitors [PDF]
Lipoxygenases are non-heme iron-containing enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids, resulting in the production of lipid hydroperoxides, which are precursors of inflammatory lipid mediators. These enzymes are widely distributed

5-Lipoxygenase inhibitors attenuate TNF-α-induced inflammation in human synovial fibroblasts. [PDF]
The lipoxygenase isoform of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) is reported to be overexpressed in human rheumatoid arthritis synovial tissue and involved in the progress of inflammatory arthritis.

Design and synthesis of new esters of terpenoid alcohols as 15-lipoxygenase inhibitors [PDF]
Objective(s): 15-Lipoxygenases are one of the iron-containing proteins capable of performing peroxidation of unsaturated fatty acids in animals and plants. The critical role of enzymes in the formation of inflammations, sensitivities, and some cancers has

Blockade of TRPM7 channel activity and cell death by inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase. [PDF]
TRPM7 is a ubiquitous divalent-selective ion channel with its own kinase domain. Recent studies have shown that suppression of TRPM7 protein expression by RNA interference increases resistance to ischemia-induced neuronal cell death in vivo and in vitro,

α-Conotoxins Enhance both the In Vivo Suppression of Ehrlich carcinoma Growth and In Vitro Reduction in Cell Viability Elicited by Cyclooxygenase and Lipoxygenase Inhibitors [PDF]
Several biochemical mechanisms, including the arachidonic acid cascade and activation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), are involved in increased tumor survival. Combined application of inhibitors acting on these two pathways may result in a

Substrate specificity effects of lipoxygenase products and inhibitors on soybean lipoxygenase-1 [PDF]
Recently, it has been shown that lipoxygenase (LO) products affect the substrate specificity of human 15-LO. In the current paper, we demonstrate that soybean LO-1 (sLO-1) is not affected by its own products, however, inhibitors which bind the allosteric site, oleyl sulfate (OS) and palmitoleyl sulfate (PS), not only lower catalytic activity, but also ...

Novel lipoxygenase inhibitors as neuroprotective reagents [PDF]
AbstractThe lipid‐metabolizing enzyme 12/15‐lipoxygenase (12/15‐LOX) mediates cell death resulting from oxidative stress in both neurons and oligodendrocytes. Specifically, it may contribute to the pathophysiology of stroke and Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases.

A fluorescence-based assay for measuring the redox potential of 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors. [PDF]
The activities and side effects of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibitors can be predicted by identifying their redox mechanisms. In this study, we developed a fluorescence-based method to measure the redox potential of 5-LO inhibitors and compared it to the ...
