15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) oxygenates linoleic acid to 13(S)-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (HODE). The enzyme is widely suppressed in different cancers and its re-expression has tumor suppressive effects. 15-LOX-1 has been shown to inhibit neoangiogenesis in colorectal cancer (CRC); in the present

The shunting of arachidonic acid metabolism to 5-lipoxygenase and cytochrome p450 epoxygenase antagonizes the anti-cancer effect of cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition in head and neck cancer cells.

BACKGROUND It has recently been found that 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and cytochrome P450-2J2 (CYP2J2), molecules capable of arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism, might promote cancer cell viability through several mechanisms similar to those of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). We found that not only COX-2

The metabolism of arachidonic acid through lipoxygenase pathways leads to the generation of various biologically active eicosanoids. The expression of these enzymes vary throughout the progression of various cancers, and thereby they have been shown to regulate aspects of tumor development.

Scientific research provides documented evidence that fatty acid metabolites have profound impact on carcinogenesis. Intervention into dioxygenase pathways might therefore effect development, metastasis and progression of many types of cancers. This work delivers the first 3D structural data and

Topical chemoprevention of skin cancer in mice, using combined inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase and cyclo-oxygenase-2.

OBJECTIVE Skin cancer is the most common cancer, and often occurs in the head and neck region. This study aimed to investigate whether a combination of inhibitors of cyclo-oxygenase-2 and 5-lipoxygenase, applied via a microemulsion delivery system, would be effective in topically inhibiting skin

Genetic deletion of 5-lipoxygenase increases tumor-infiltrating macrophages in Apc(Δ468) mice.

BACKGROUND The role of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) in colon cancer is unknown. Tumor-infiltrating macrophages, neutrophils, and mast cells have been shown to play important roles in colon tumorigenesis and are dependent on 5-LO for function. METHODS Utilizing the APC(Δ468) polyposis model, we performed

The effects of inhibitors of arachidonic acid oxidative metabolism, gamma-radiation and/or their combinations on proliferation and cell cycle were studied in human breast carcinoma HS578T and monoblastoid U937 cell lines. While piroxicam an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase pathway, had no significant

Molecular targeting for apoptosis induction is being developed for better treatment of cancer. Downregulation of 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) is linked to colorectal tumorigenesis. Re-expression of 15-LOX-1 in cancer cells by pharmaceutical agents induces apoptosis. Antitumorigenic agents can also

The 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors SC41661A and MK886 with different mechanisms of action and the free radical spin trap, NTBN inhibit proliferation of the human bronchiolar lung cancer cell line NCI H-358 (5807 CRL). With continued culture, the agents induced a form of programmed cell death in which DNA

Increasing evidence suggests that lipoxygenase (LO)-catalysed metabolites have a profound influence on the development and progression of human cancers. Compared with normal tissues, significantly elevated levels of LO products have been found in breast tumours, colon cancers, lung, skin and

The mechanisms by which nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) induce apoptosis in colorectal cancer cells are undergoing intensive investigation. We found previously that NSAIDs induce apoptosis in these cells by restoring 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) expression. The present study examined

Apoptosis of W256 carcinosarcoma cells of the monocytoid origin induced by NDGA involves lipid peroxidation and depletion of GSH: role of 12-lipoxygenase in regulating tumor cell survival.

Arachidonate lipoxygenases (LOX) and their products play an important role in mediating growth factor-supported tumor cell proliferation and growth. The LOX pathway may also be critical in regulating tumor cell survival and apoptosis. Blocking the 12-LOX gene expression with sequence-specific

The 15-lipoxygenase-1 expression may enhance the sensitivity to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced apoptosis in colorectal cancers from patients who are treated with the compounds.

OBJECTIVE Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can prevent colorectal cancer (CRC), but their effect is limited. Recent studies have shown the involvement of 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) in NSAID-induced apoptosis in colorectal carcinoma cells. We evaluate whether 15-LOX-1 expression

Nicotine [3-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)-pyridine], a major alkaloid in tobacco, has been implicated as playing a role in carcinogenesis. Our previous study showed that passive cigarette smoking promoted inflammation-associated colonic adenoma formation in mice, and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) plays an
