Eicosanoids in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) Progression. Do Serum Eicosanoids Profile Correspond with Liver Eicosanoids Content during NAFLD Development and Progression?

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is becoming a major public health problem worldwide. The study aimed to evaluate the concentration of eicosanoids in serum and liver tissue during steatosis progression and to assess whether eicosanoid change ...

2204 Characterizing specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators and synthesis pathways in veterans with peripheral artery disease

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Translational Science, 2018
OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPM) actively counter proinflammatory cascades. A deficit of SPMs is one possible mechanism through which inflammation leads to the development of atherosclerotic disease.

The Activity of Protectin DX, 17 HDHA and Leukotriene B4 Is Correlated with Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist (IL-1Ra) in the Early Subacute Phase of Stroke. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci
Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of mortality and disability in adults. The inflammatory cascade is driven by various inflammatory molecules, such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and counteracted by its antagonist, interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra). Eicosanoids are inflammatory derivatives of free fatty acids.

PDX regulates inflammatory cell infiltration via resident macrophage in LPS‐induced lung injury

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 24, Issue 18, Page 10604-10614, September 2020., 2020
Abstract Inflammatory cell infiltration contributes to the pathogenesis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Protectin DX (PDX), an endogenous lipid mediator, shows anti‐inflammatory and proresolution bioactions. In vivo, the mice were intraperitoneally injected with PDX (0.1 µg/mouse) after intratracheal (1 mg/kg) or intraperitoneal (10 mg ...

Resolvin E1 derived from eicosapentaenoic acid prevents hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia in a host genetic manner

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 34, Issue 8, Page 10640-10656, August 2020., 2020
Abstract Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) has garnered attention after the success of the REDUCE‐IT trial, which contradicted previous conclusions on EPA for cardiovascular disease risk. Here we first investigated EPA's preventative role on hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia.

Biotransformation of docosahexaenoic acid into 10R,17S-dihydroxydocosahexaenoic acid as protectin DX 10-epimer by serial reactions of arachidonate 8R- and 15S-lipoxygenases

open access: yesWorld Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2023
Abstract Protectins, 10,17-dihydroxydocosahexaenoic acids (10,17-DiHDHAs), are belonged to specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs). Protectins are generated by polymorphonuclear leukocytes in humans and resolve inflammation and infection in trace amounts.

Platelet‐Rich Plasma Combined with Alendronate Reduces Pain and Inflammation in Induced Osteoarthritis in Rats by Inhibiting the Nuclear Factor‐Kappa B Signaling Pathway

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Purpose. Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the common degenerative diseases of the joint in the world. This study was designed to explore the effect of platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) combined with alendronate (ALN) on OA. Methods. We induced OA model by anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) method in rats and treating chondrocytes by IL‐1β in vitro ...

Characterization and biological effects of di-hydroxylated compounds deriving from the lipoxygenation of ALA

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2013
We have recently described a di-hydroxylated compound called protectin DX (PDX) which derives from docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) by double lipoxygenation.

Protectin DX attenuates LPS-induced inflammation and insulin resistance in adipocytes via AMPK-mediated suppression of the NF-κB pathway [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2018
Several studies have demonstrated that protectins, ω-3 fatty acid-derived proresolution mediators, may ameliorate inflammation. Recently, protectin DX (PDX) was also reported to attenuate inflammation and insulin resistance in several cell types. However, the effects of PDX on inflammation in adipocytes remain ambiguous.
