Several oxylipins are regulators of inflammation. They are formed by enzymes such as lipoxygenases or cyclooxygenases, but also stereorandomly by autoxidation. Reversed-phase liquid chromatography-tandem-mass-spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) methods for oxylipin quantification do not separate enantiomers.

Oxylipins are important low abundant signaling molecules in living organisms. In platelets they play a primary role in platelet activation and aggregation in the course of thrombotic events. In vivo, they are enzymatically synthesized by cyclooxygenases, lipoxygenases, or cytochrome P450 isoenzmes, resulting in diverse polyunsaturated fatty acid (FA) metabolites including hydroxy-, epoxy-, oxo-FAs, and endoperoxides with pro-thrombotic or anti-thrombotic effects.

Certain limitations exist for animals to modify fatty acid changes. Besides the role of arachidonic acid (AA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and other 20-carbon long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs) for the synthesis of inflammatory mediators as eicosanoids, different LCPUFAs have many other effects, including their abilities to regulate gene expression and downstream events. LCPUFAs are susceptible to autoxidation, which is prevented by the action of antioxidants in the form of enzymes like superoxide dismutases, catalases and peroxidases, as well as antioxidant compounds that protect against oxidation or repair the damage caused.

Electronic address:
Osteosarcopenia is an age-related condition characterized by fragile bone and low muscle mass and function. Fat infiltration concomitantly contributes to age-related bone and muscle decline. Fat-secreted factors could be locally secreted in the muscle and bone marrow milieu affecting cell function and survival.
