Dietary factors and low-grade inflammation in relation to overweight and obesity (2011, positive): “However, observations that classical pro-inflammatory mediators such as PGE2 can also exert anti-inflammatory effects and that arachidonic acid gives rise to anti-inflammatory mediators such as lipoxin A4 have started to challenge the earlier view((608)).”
The NASA Twins Study: A multidimensional analysis of a year-long human spaceflight (2019, background): “During both inflight and postflight periods in TW, we detected increased levels of lysophospholipids containing proinflammatory omega-6 20:4 fatty acid (arachidonic acid) (37), together with a decrease in lysophospholipids containing antiinflammatory omega-3 20:5 fatty acid (eicosapentaenoic acid) (”
Effects of dietary arachidonic acid (ARA) on lipid metabolism and health status of juvenile grass carp, Ctenopharyngodon idellus (2014, background): “In general, at least in mammals, ARA-derived eicosanoids act in a pro-inflammatory way, although this is an over-simplification since it is now recognized that PGE2, for example, has both pro- and antiinflammatory effects (Calder, 2009).”
Obesity, Inflammation, Toll-Like Receptor 4 and Fatty Acids (2018, background): “The latter include tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1, which act on endothelial cells and leukocytes to promote the recruitment and activation of leukocytes in the inflammatory area [18,19].”
Health Implications of High Dietary Omega-6 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (2012, background): “In addition, lipid mediators generated from long-chain (LC-) PUFA (arachidonic acid (AA) in the n-6 series and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in the n-3 series) have important roles in immune regulation and inflammation [3].”
