Bioactive lipids, such as lysophospholipids, ceramides, and eicosanoids and related mediators, have been demonstrated to be involved in inflammation. We aimed to investigate the possible orchestral modulations of these bioactive lipids in human inflammation. We simultaneously measured the urinary levels of lysophospholipids, ceramides, and eicosanoids and related mediators by a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method in patients with cystitis and control subjects. The urinary levels of lysophosphatidylcholine, lysophosphatidylethanolamine, sphingosine 1-phosphate, ceramides, prostaglandin (PG)E |
