GC/TOFMS analysis of metabolites in serum and urine reveals metabolic perturbation of TCA cycle in db/db mice involved in diabetic nephropathy.
Am. J. Physiol. Renal Physiol. 304(11) , F1317-24, (2013) Early diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy (DN) is difficult although it is of crucial importance to prevent its development. To probe potential markers and the underlying mechanism of DN, an animal model of DN, the db/db mice, was used and serum and urine metab... |

Pre-existent asymmetry in the human cyclooxygenase-2 sequence homodimer.
J. Biol. Chem. 288(40) , 28641-55, (2013) Prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase-2 (PGHS-2), also known as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), is a sequence homodimer. However, the enzyme exhibits half-site heme and inhibitor binding and functions as a conformational heterodimer having a catalytic subunit (Ecat... |

Fenretinide prevents inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness in a mouse model of allergic asthma.
Am. J. Respir. Cell. Mol. Biol. 51(6) , 783-92, (2014) Arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) play important roles in inflammation and disease progression, where AA is viewed as proinflammatory and DHA as antiinflammatory. We observe in our model of allergic asthma that the AA/DHA ratio is significa... |

Metabolic conversion of intra-amniotically-injected deuterium-labeled essential fatty acids by fetal rats following maternal n-3 fatty acid deficiency.
Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1841(9) , 1336-44, (2014) Accumulation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in the fetal brain is accomplished predominantly via a highly selective flow of docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3, DHA) and arachidonic acid (20:4n-6, AA) through the placenta. Little is known regarding the endog... |
