Metabolism of Prostaglandins

open access: yes, 1977
The major initial steps in the degradation of the prostaglandins are the oxidation of the secondary alcohol group at C-15 and the reduction of the Δ13 double bond (for a recent review, see 1).

The induction of preterm labor in rhesus macaques is determined by the  strength of immune response to intrauterine infection.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2021
Intrauterine infection/inflammation (IUI) is a major contributor to preterm labor (PTL). However, IUI does not invariably cause PTL. We hypothesized that quantitative and qualitative differences in immune response exist in subjects with or without PTL ...

Metabolism of prostaglandins E, A, and C in serum

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1975
Three prostaglandin-metabolizing enzymes were detected in human serum. One enzyme was a dehydrase that converted prostaglandin E to prostaglandin A, the second was a prostaglandin A isomerase that converted prostaglandin A to prostaglandin C and the third was a prostaglandin C isomerase that converted prostaglandin C to prostaglandin B.

Conserved and species-specific oxylipin pathways in the wound-activated chemical defense of the noninvasive red alga Gracilaria chilensis and the invasive Gracilaria vermiculophylla

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2012
Chemical defense of the invasive red alga Gracilaria vermiculophylla has been studied and compared to that of the noninvasive but related Gracilaria chilensis. Both species rely on a wound-activated chemical defense that makes them less attractive to the

Biosynthesis of Prostaglandins

open access: yes, 1977
The conversion of arachidonic acid into PGE2 by homogenates of sheep vesicular glands was demonstrated in 1964 by two groups (1,2). Analogous formation of PGE1 and PGE2 from al1-cis 8,11,14-eicosatri-enoic acid and al1-cis 5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaenoic ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

Radioimmunoassays of Prostaglandins and Thromboxanes

open access: yes, 1977
Radioimmunoassay is based on a competition between labeled and unlabeled molecules of a certain compound for the binding sites on an antibody directed against the same compound.

Erythropoietin modulates hepatic inflammation, glucose homeostasis, and soluble epoxide hydrolase and epoxides in high‐fat diet‐induced obese mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Erythropoietin administration suppresses hepatic soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) expression, leading to increased CYP‐derived epoxides. This is associated with a shift in hepatic macrophage polarization characterized by reduced M1 markers and increased M2 markers, along with reduced hepatic inflammation, suppressed hepatic lipogenesis, and attenuated ...
