Mouse peritoneal macrophages synthesize 6 monohydroxylated eicosatetraenoic acids when incubated with exogenous arachidonic acid. These compounds were identified by chromatographic techniques (high pressure liquid chromatography and high efficiency glass capillary column gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. The chromatographic and spectrometric data are presented. These results show that peritoneal macrophages constitute one of the best systems to study in evaluating the metabolism of oxygenated products of arachidonic acid.

Objectives: Polysaccharides from are known to have several bioactive effects. Previous studies have found that low-molecular-weight polysaccharide (GP1) is degraded by and promotes the production of beneficial bacteria and metabolites, which improves immune disorder and intestinal injury, and then enhances the body's immune regulation ability. However, the immune regulation effect of GP1 on a healthy body has not been studied.

Background/objectives: This study investigates the metabolic profile of a single dose of etodolac in healthy volunteers, focusing on pharmacokinetics, clinical parameters, and metabolomic variations to identify biomarkers and pathways linked to drug response, efficacy, and safety.

Methods: Thirty-seven healthy volunteers, enrolled after rigorous health assessments, received a single dose of etodolac (Flancox 500 mg). Pharmacokinetic profiles were determined using tandem mass spectrometry analysis, and the metabolomic profiling was conducted using baseline samples (pre-dose) and samples at maximum drug concentration (post-dose) via liquid chromatography coupled with a quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer.

Cadmium (Cd) pollution poses an important problem, but limited information is available about the toxicology effects of Cd on freshwater invertebrates. We investigated the accumulation, oxidative stress, microbial community changes, and transcriptomic alterations in apple snails ) under Cd stress. The snails were exposed to the 10 μg/L Cd solution for 16 days, followed by a 16-day elimination period.

Allergic rhinitis affects millions globally, causing significant discomfort and reducing the quality of life. This study investigates the metabolic alterations in murine mast cells (MC/9) under allergic rhinitis conditions induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, employing UHPLC-QTOF-MS-based untargeted and targeted metabolomics. The analysis identified 44 significantly regulated metabolites, including histamine, leukotrienes, prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and ceramides.

Worldwide, there are reports indicating that sheep raised in insular systems spontaneously consume seaweed. In the southern hemisphere, there exists , a brown seaweed that possesses minerals and fatty acids that could improve some aspects of sheep production and meat quality, respectively. However, the consumption of this algae in lambs has been scarcely studied.
