Eicosanoid

I do take fish oil and/or cod liver oil, partly for omega 3 balance which would include the anti-inflammatory eicosanoid response and partly for possible help with depression. ❋ Unknown (2006)

Extracts from two frequently consumed spices—cumin (Cuminum ciminum) and turmeric (Curcuma longa)—inhibit platelet aggregation and alter eicosanoid biosynthesis in human blood platelets. ❋ Dr. Kenneth R. Pelletier (2000)

Aiming to address if a parallel increase of redox state took place in the periphery, we evaluated malondialdehyde (MDA), a terminal compound derived from lipid peroxidation and from eicosanoid biosynthesis, widely used to monitor oxidative stress ❋ Franco Folli Et Al. (2010)

Despite the demonstrated utility of standard factors in coronary heart disease (CHD) risk prediction, there remains an intense interest in finding additional markers that would improve upon this standard Fatty acids (FAs) are powerful modulators of cell membrane receptors and affect signal transduction, gene transcription, and eicosanoid metabolism. ❋ Unknown (2009)

They may also lessen the severity of autoimmune diseases by suppressing the immune system and by inhibiting eicosanoid-induced inflammation (Fernandes and Venkatraman, 1992). ❋ Unknown (2009)

Subsequent studies have proposed a mechanism for this effect, including suppression of special enzymes (COX-II) known to produce substances (the eicosanoid PGE2) that suppress immunity and promote inflammation. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Interleukin-10 suppression of T-cell response is mediated by eicosanoid - induced interleukin-4 release. ❋ Rajaie Namas Et Al. (2009)

This one test may be the most predictive blood test that you can ever take because of its’ ability to determine your eicosanoid balance. ❋ Unknown (2006)

a critical role in regulating availability of arachidonic acid for eicosanoid production. ❋ M. A. Gijon (2008)

Figure 4a; Table S4) was restricted to non-transformed cells were mainly related to ECM turnover, lipid and eicosanoid/prostaglandin metabolism, or cell differentiation. ❋ Ville Härmä Et Al. (2010)
