NCTT-956 is a very potent, specific inhibitor of 12-lipoxygenase (12-LO) activity, with an IC50 of 800 nM, no activity against 5-LO and greater than 25-fold selectivity over 15-LO. Specific inhibition of 12-LO by NCTT-956 in platelets blocks PKC activation, aggregation, granule secretion and αIIbB3 activation.
Distinct oxygenases and their oxylipin products have been shown to participate in thermogenesis by mediating physiological adaptations required to sustain body temperature. Since the role of the lipoxygenase (LOX) family in cold adaptation remains elusive, we aimed to investigate whether
The increased incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has become a global phenomenon that could be related to adoption of a Western life-style. Westernization of dietary habits is partly characterized by enrichment with the ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) arachidonic
Journal of neuroinflammation, 12, 199-199 (2015-11-02)
Oxidative stress and inflammation are important factors contributing to the pathophysiology of numerous neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, acute stroke, and infections of the brain. There is well-established evidence that proinflammatory cytokines and glutamate, as well as reactive
