Bioactive Lipid Mediators in Cardiopulmonary Pharmacology, Volume 97
By Darryl C Zeldin, John Seubert
This comprehensive volume provides an in-depth exploration of bioactive lipid mediators, a crucial aspect of cardiopulmonary pharmacology. These lipid mediators play a central role in regulating various physiological and pathophysiological responses through an array of signaling pathways.
Chapters and Topics Covered
- Cyclooxygenases and Vascular Function
- Cyclooxygenases and Platelet Function
- Eicosanoids and Cardiomyopathies
- Cytochrome P450 Bioactive Lipids in the Heart
- Epoxide Hydrolase and Leukotoxin in the Heart and Lung
- Role of cytochrome P450-epoxygenase and soluble epoxide hydrolase in the regulation of vascular response
- Bioactive Lipids in Hypertension
- Cytochrome P450 Metabolites and Angiogenesis
- 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid and Vascular Function
Additionally, the volume delves into critical topics such as:
- Cytochrome P450 Eicosanoids and the Brain
- Omega-3 Oxylipids
- Resolvins, Lipoxins and Inflammation
- Endocannabinoids as Bioactive Metabolites
- Oxylipins and Aspirin Exacerbated Respiratory Disease
Key Features
- Provides reviews from world experts in the field of bioactive lipid mediators
- Focuses on current topics, with an emphasis on the development of novel therapeutics
- Covers a diverse range of bioactive lipids derived from COX, LOX, or CYP-mediated metabolism of omega-3 and omega-6 PUFAs
