Various biomolecules induce neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation or NETosis. However, the effect of fatty acids on NETosis has not been clearly established. In this study, we focused on the NETosis-inducing ability of several lipid molecules

Identifying novel anti-cancer drugs is important for devising better cancer treatment options. In a series of studies designed to identify novel therapeutic compounds, we recently showed that a C-20 fatty acid (12,15-epoxy-13,14-dimethyleicosa-12,14-

We report the effects of two anti-cancer drugs, PBT-4, an experimental antagonist to the pro-inflammatory hepoxilins, and Gleevec (STI-571), an anti-leukaemic drug, on eicosanoid tumour levels in immunodeficient mice (NU/NU) xenografted with the leuk

The immunoregulatory effects of dietary omega-3 fatty acids are still not fully characterized. The aim of this study was to determine whether dietary eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) intake limits intestinal ischemia-reperfu

The hepoxilin pathway was discovered over two decades ago. Products in this pathway are derived through the 12S-lipoxygenase/hepoxilin synthase enzyme system and contain intrinsic biological activity. This activity relates to the reorganization of ca

The role of arachidonic acid (AA) on the development of adipose tissue is still controversial since its metabolites, i.e., prostaglandins, can either stimulate or inhibit preadipocyte differentiation in vitro. In the present study, we evaluated the e
