“…However, when arachidonic-acid-containing plasmalogens are under oxidative stress, they become precursors of arachidonic-derived lipid mediators such as leukotrienes and hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids [29],[31],[35],[36]. These reactive lipids are important mediators of inflammatory response [37]. Thus, this remodeling process occurring in the membranes may make the adipocytes more vulnerable and prone to inflammatory responses (Figure 7), in agreement with the elevation of inflammatory pathways in the obese twins of weight-discordant twin pairs [12].…”

“…Arachidonic acid (C20:4) released by phospholipases from cell membrane is metabolized by lipoxygenases (LOX); especially, 5-LOX generates 5-HETE and leukotriene B 4 from arachidonic acid (C20:4) (Harizi et al, 2008). These two metabolites induce chemotactic response and chemokinesis of leukocytes and show increased levels in inflammatory lesions for immune function, therefore, 5-HETE and leukotriene B 4 may play a key role on leukocyte function (Goetzl et al, 1982). In the present study, leukotriene B 4 and 5-HETE levels were significantly lower in the LC group than the control group and the leukocyte number in the LC group had a trend toward decrease compared to the control group.…”
