A high throughput screen identifies potent and selective inhibitors to human epithelial 15-lipoxygenase-2. [PDF]
Lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes catalyze the hydroperoxidation of arachidonic acid and other polyunsaturated fatty acids to hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids with varying positional specificity to yield important biological signaling molecules.

Caulerpenyne and related bis-enol esters are novel-type inhibitors of human 5-lipoxygenase [PDF]
Caulerpenyne (CYN) is a sesquiterpene from green algae with known inhibitory properties against soybean lipoxygenase. Here we introduce a detailed structure-activity study elucidating the inhibitory effects of CYN and a library of six synthetic CYN ...

Novel Human Lipoxygenase Inhibitors Discovered Using Virtual Screening with Homology Models [PDF]
We report the discovery of new, low micromolar, small molecule inhibitors of human platelet-type 12- and reticulocyte 15-lipoxygenase-1 (12-hLO and 15-hLO) using structure-based methods.

ABSTRACT Background Ischemic stroke, a major cause of mortality and long‐term disability, results from the abrupt cessation of cerebral blood flow due to vascular occlusion or rupture. Icosapent Ethyl (EPA‐EE), approved for hypertriglyceridemia, has anti‐inflammatory and antithrombotic properties that may lessen ischemic damage.

Comparison of eight 15-lipoxygenase (LO) inhibitors on the biosynthesis of 15-LO metabolites by human neutrophils and eosinophils. [PDF]
Neutrophils and eosinophils are important sources of bioactive lipids from the 5- and the 15-lipoxygenase (LO) pathways. Herein, we compared the effectiveness of humans eosinophils and eosinophil-depleted neutrophils to synthesize 15-LO metabolites using
