To investigate NADPH-oxidase activation, we studied the effects of free fatty acid (FFA), their uncharged derivatives, and calcium on membrane lipid structure and superoxide anion (O2-) release from intact neutrophils and in cell-free O2(-)-generating systems. This study determined that in

The mammalian Delta6-desaturase coded by fatty acid desaturase 2 (FADS2; HSA11q12-q13.1) catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step for the biosynthesis of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. FADS2 is known to act on at least five substrates, and we hypothesized that the

Trolox C, a water-soluble derivative of alpha-tocopherol, stimulates the oxygenation of cis,cis-eicosa-11, 14-dienoic acid (AH) by prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase at lower concentrations and suppresses the stimulated reaction at higher concentrations. Surprisingly, Trolox C does not affect the stoichiometric ratio between

Eicosadienoic acid (Δ11,14-20:2; EDA) is a rare, naturally occurring n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) found mainly in animal tissues. EDA is elongated from linoleic acid (LA), and can also be metabolized to dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA), arachidonic acid (AA), and sciadonic

Lipoxygenases are currently potential targets for therapies against asthma, artherosceloris, and cancer. Recently, inhibition studies on both soybean (SLO) and human lipoxygenase (15-HLO) revealed the presence of an allosteric site that binds both substrate, linoleic acid, and inhibitors; oleic acid
