Quantitative analysis of cyclooxygenase metabolites of arachidonic Acid.

Methods in molecular medicine

Dworski R, Sheller JR, Christman BW.
PMID: 21336918
Methods Mol Med. 2001;56:411-22. doi: 10.1385/1-59259-151-5:411.

Metabolism of arachidonic acid results in a host of biologically active compounds with profound effects on airway inflammation (1). After activation of cellular phospholipases and release of free arachidonic acid, catalyzed insertion of oxygen occurs enzymatically via action of...

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely available drugs with anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Their mechanism of action is associated with the enzymes of the arachidonic acid cycle (cyclooxygenases: COX-1 and COX-2). The cyclooxygenase pathway results in the formation of...

Molecular evolution of enzymes involved in the arachidonic acid cascade.

Mediators of inflammation

Mediators Inflamm. 1992;1(4):223-33. doi: 10.1155/S0962935192000346.

The metabolic pathway called the arachidonic acid cascade produces a wide range of eicosanoids, such as prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes with potent biological activities. Recombinant DNA techniques have made it possible to determine the nucleotide sequences of cDNAs and/or...

New insights into eicosanoid biosynthetic pathways: implications for arthritis.

Expert review of clinical immunology

Eicosanoid is a collective term for the family of lipid mediators derived from arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism. This complex family of lipids is comprised of prostaglandins, thromboxanes, leukotrienes, hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs) and lipoxins (LXs). The most studied enzymatic pathway...

Expression of thromboxane synthase, TBXAS1 and the thromboxane A2 receptor, TBXA2R, in human breast cancer.

PMID: 16250911
Int Semin Surg Oncol. 2005 Oct 26;2:23. doi: 10.1186/1477-7800-2-23.

BACKGROUND: Thromboxane synthase (TxS) metabolizes the cyclooxygenase product, prostaglandin H(2), into thromboxanes. Some of the thromboxanes are known to be biologically active on cancer cells. The aim of the study was to investigate the expression of thromboxane synthases, TBXAS1...

Front Immunol. 2013 Jun 04;4:130. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2013.00130. eCollection 2013.

Eicosanoids are inflammatory mediators primarily generated by hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids by phospholipase A2 to ω-3 and ω-6 C20 fatty acids that next are converted to leukotrienes (LTs), prostaglandins (PGs), prostacyclins (PCs), and thromboxanes (TXAs). The rate-limiting and tightly...

AIM: Lipids such as prostaglandins, leukotrienes and thromboxanes are released as a result of an inflammatory episode in pain (central and peripheral).METHODOLOGY & RESULTS: To measure these lipids as potential mechanistic biomarkers in neuropathic pain models, we developed a...

Prostanoids, consisting of prostaglandins (PGs) and thromboxanes (TXs), are oxygenated products of C20 unsaturated fatty acids. They include PGD2, PGE2, PGF2 α , PGI2, and TXA2. Given that aspirin-like nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs exert their actions by suppressing prostanoid production,...
