This omega-6 fatty acid, arachidonic acid, is an important starting material for three different types of signaling molecules (Figure 3). Similar research found pathways that converted fat from ...

Finally, LAU-7b promotes activation of the docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) pathway, which plays a role in resolving inflammatory responses driven by the arachidonic acid (AA) pathway, helping to ...

Activated platelets catalyze thromboxane A 2 synthesis in bursts from endogenous platelet arachidonic acid, which is present at a low concentration. Important considerations when investigating ...

Mucosal production of arachidonic acid metabolites, both through the cyclooxygenase pathways, that is, prostanoids, and through the lipoxygenase pathways, that is, leukotrienes and ...

Arachidonic acid is released from membrane phospholipids by phospholipase A 2. Local irritation or sensitization (discontinue if occurs); possible systemic effects (eg, adrenal suppression ...
