Nitro-fatty acid formation and signaling.
نویسندگان
چکیده
These compounds display in the 1H NMR spectrum a low field triplet at δ 7.08, due to the alkene H-9 proton experiencing the diamagnetic anisotropy effect of the adjacent nitro group. This chemical shift value also indicates the cis arrangement of the double bond. Another salient signal is represented by a 2H doublet at δ 3.33/3.27, due to the bisallylic methylene protons flanked by the nitro group-bearing carbon.

Nitro-fatty acids reduce atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice.
OBJECTIVE Inflammatory processes and foam cell formation are key determinants in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Electrophilic nitro-fatty acids, byproducts of nitric oxide- and nitrite-dependent redox reactions of unsaturated fatty acids, exhibit antiinflammatory signaling actions in inflammatory and vascular cell model systems. The in vivo action of nitro-fatty acids in chr...
متن کاملNitro-fatty acids: novel anti-inflammatory lipid mediators
Nitro-fatty acids are formed and detected in human plasma, cell membranes, and tissue, modulating metabolic as well as inflammatory signaling pathways. Here we discuss the mechanisms of nitro-fatty acid formation as well as their key chemical and biochemical properties. The electrophilic properties of nitro-fatty acids to activate anti-inflammatory signaling pathways are discussed in detail. A ...
متن کاملProtection of nitro-fatty acid against kidney diseases.
Nitrated derivatives of unsaturated fatty acids are endogenously formed under oxidative and nitrative stress condition and are defined as electrophilic fatty acids containing a nitro group to a carbon-carbon double bond. Among the most studied nitro derivatives of unsaturated fatty acids are nitro-oleic acid (OA-NO2) and nitro-linoleic acid (LNO2). These products exhibit novel protective action...
متن کاملFatty acid nitroalkenes induce resistance to ischemic cardiac injury by modulating mitochondrial respiration at complex II
Nitro-fatty acids (NO2-FA) are metabolic and inflammatory-derived electrophiles that mediate pleiotropic signaling actions. It was hypothesized that NO2-FA would impact mitochondrial redox reactions to induce tissue-protective metabolic shifts in cells. Nitro-oleic acid (OA-NO2) reversibly inhibited complex II-linked respiration in isolated rat heart mitochondria in a pH-dependent manner and su...
متن کاملNitro-Oleic Acid Regulates Endothelin Signaling in Human Endothelial Cells.
Nitro-fatty acids are reactive signaling mediators that are formed when unsaturated fatty acids react with nitric oxide or nitric oxide-derived species. Nitro-fatty acids can modify specific signaling pathways via post-translational modifications of Cys residues in key regulatory proteins. One of the signaling cascades activated by nitro-fatty acids is the Keap1-Nrf2 pathway. We have previously...
