research Epoxy Fatty Acids and Inhibition of the Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Selectively Modulate GABA Mediated Neurotransmission to Delay Onset of Seizures
The researchers found that inhibiting soluble epoxide hydrolase, either genetically or pharmacologically, delayed the onset of chemically induced seizures related to GABA antagonism in experimental models.
research Fatty Acids and Related Lipid Mediators in the Regulation of Cutaneous Inflammation
This review explores the role of fatty acids and bioactive lipid mediators in skin health and suggests targeting this metabolic network to control inflammation and improve skin conditions, but it reports no new findings.
research ERK1/2 Pathway Involvement in Enhancement of Fatty Acids from Phaeodactylum Tricornutum Extract on Hair Follicle Cell Proliferation
This study found that Phaeodactylum tricornutum extract enhanced hair follicle cell proliferation, indicated by increased keratin and ERK1/2 signaling, suggesting its potential for hair care applications.
research Down-Regulation of Genes Related to Photoaging and Inflammation in UVB-Irradiated Mice Premature Skin Photoaging by Linoleic Acid-Rich Tempeh Oil
In this study, tempeh oil rich in PUFAs, particularly from black soybean, significantly down-regulated MMP-9 gene expression in UVB-irradiated mice skin, indicating potential for use in preventing skin photoaging.
research Annurca Apple Polyphenols Protect Murine Hair Follicles from Taxane-Induced Dystrophy and Redirect Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Metabolism Toward β-Oxidation
This study reports that polyphenols from Annurca apples may safely promote hair growth and protect against chemotherapy-induced alopecia without interfering with chemotherapy regimens.
research Diagnosing Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency
This letter discusses how outdated measurement technology may obscure evidence of essential fatty acid deficiency in low-fat diet patients, potentially leading to undiagnosed EFA insufficiencies related to heart disease.
research Omega 3 Fatty Acid-Enriched Nanoemulsion of Thiocolchicoside for Transdermal Delivery: Formulation, Characterization, and Absorption Studies
