متن کاملNuclear import of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase.
Leukotrienes are lipid messenger molecules that are secreted by leukocytes to orchestrate a rapid and prolonged immune response. The enzyme 5-lipoxygenase catalyzes the rate-limiting first two steps in the synthesis of leukotrienes from arachidonic acid. Although it has long been known that 5-lipoxygenase moves from the cytoplasm to a membrane following activation, it has only recently been rec...
متن کاملArachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5) gene polymorphism (rs12762303) and arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (ALOX5AP) gene polymorphism (rs3802278) and markers of carotid atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Background: The study was designed to investigate the association between polymorphisms of the arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5) gene (rs12762303) and the arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating proteingene (rs3802278), and markers of carotid atherosclerosis, such as carotid intima media thickness, the number of affected segments of carotid arteries and the sum of plaque thickness in patients ...
متن کاملArachidonate 5-lipoxygenase promoter genotype, dietary arachidonic acid, and atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND Leukotrienes are inflammatory mediators generated from arachidonic acid (polyunsaturated n-6 fatty acid) by the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase. Since atherosclerosis involves arterial inflammation, we hypothesized that a polymorphism in the 5-lipoxygenase gene promoter could relate to atherosclerosis in humans and that this effect could interact with the dietary intake of competing 5-lipoxyge...
متن کاملArachidonate 5-lipoxygenase variants in atherosclerosis, obesity, and bone traits.
Atherosclerosis, Obesity, and Bone Traits To the Editor: I write regarding publications by Mehrabian et al1,2 appearing in Circulation Research and a subsequent publication by Kuhn et al3 appearing in Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology. The key implication from the combination of these reports was that amino acid substitutions in arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5) could account...
