1 1457080 The 12-lipoxygenase product, 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) caused a 2-fold increase in P-450(11) beta levels without altering P-450SCC levels.
2 8275971 The 12-lipoxygenase (LO) pathway of arachidonic acid plays an important role in angiotensin II (AII)-mediated aldosterone synthesis.
3 8282345 These results suggest that 12-lipoxygenase activation plays a key role in Ang II-induced vascular smooth muscle cell hypertrophy.
4 7840166 The acute inhibitory effects of insulin were in part mediated by inhibition of the 12-lipoxygenase pathway.
5 9374757 We also examined whether the 12-lipoxygenase (12-LO) product 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) can alter VEGF expression, since 12-LO products of arachidonic acid have angiogenic properties, and ANG II as well as high glucose (HG, 25 mM) can increase 12-LO activity and expression in VSMC.
6 21081706 Sitagliptin also reduced adipocyte mRNA expression of inflammatory genes, including IL-6, TNF?, IL-12(p35), and IL-12(p40), 2.5- to fivefold as well as 12-lipoxygenase protein expression.
7 21228311 Only rMCs and astrocytes showed increased VEGF expression by 12-HETE. 12-LOX and its product HETE are important regulators of retinal NV through modulation of VEGF and PEDF expression and could provide a new therapeutic target to prevent and treat ischemic retinopathy.
8 20068130 On the other hand, the expression and activity of 12-lipoxygenase, an enzyme responsible for metabolizing arachidonic acid, and the production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), a critical insulin resistance-inducing factor, are largely inhibited by lipocalin-2 deficiency.
9 20068130 Lipocalin-2 deficiency protects mice from developing aging- and obesity-induced insulin resistance largely by modulating 12-lipoxygenase and TNF-alpha levels in adipose tissue.
10 20107107 The hypothesis that 4-hydroxydodeca-(2E,6Z)-dienal (4-HDDE), the peroxidation product of 12-lipoxygenase, mediates this downregulatory mechanism by activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) delta was investigated.
