The oxygenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids such as arachidonic and linoleic acid through lipoxygenases (LOXs) and cyclooxygenases (COXs) leads to the production of bioactive lipids that are important both in the induction of acute inflammation and its resolution. Amongst the several isoforms of LOX that are expressed in mammals, 15-LOX-1 was shown to be important both in the context of inflammation, being expressed in cells of the immune system, and in epithelial cells where the enzyme has been shown to crosstalk with a number of important signalling pathways. This review looks into the latest developments in understanding the role of 15-LOX-1 in different disease states with emphasis on the emerging role of the enzyme in the tumour microenvironment as well as a newly re-discovered form of cell death called ferroptosis. We also discuss future perspectives on the feasibility of use of this protein as a target for therapeutic interventions.

Butyrate mediated regulation of RNA binding proteins in the post-transcriptional regulation of inflammatory gene expression Torun, Aydan; Enayat, Shabnam; Sheraj, Ilir; Tuncer, Sinem; Ulgen, Dogukan Hazar; Banerjee, Sreeparna (Elsevier BV, 2019-12-01) Short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are produced by commensal bacteria in the gut and are known to reduce inflammation through transcriptional inhibition of cytokines and inflammatory proteins such as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Butyrate is a SCFA that was reported to alter the mRNA stability of inflammatory genes by increasiing the expression of the RNA binding protein (RBP) Tristetraprolin (TTP). We have hypothesized that butyrate may regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally through global effects on the...
The effect of cysteine-43 mutation on thermostability and kinetic properties of citrate synthase from Thermoplasma acidophilum Kocabıyık, Semra; Russel, RJM; Danson, MJ; Hough, DW (Elsevier BV, 1996-07-05) In this study, we have substituted serine-43 by cysteine in the recombinant citrate synthase from a moderately thermophilic Archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum, for site-specific attachment of labels and have investigated the effects of this mutation on the biochemical properties and thermal stability of the enzyme. Both wild-type and the mutant enzymes were purified to homogenity using affinity chromatography on Matrex Gel Red A. The mutant Thermoplasma citrate synthase is very similar to wild-type citrate s...
The NF-kappa B target genes ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 are differentially regulated during spontaneous differentiation of Caco-2 cells Astarci, Erhan; Sade, Asli; Cimen, Ismail; SAVAŞ, BERNA; Banerjee, Sreeparna (Wiley, 2012-08-01) Intestinal epithelial differentiation entails the formation of highly specialized cells with specific absorptive, secretory, digestive and immune functions. Cellcell and cellmicroenvironment interactions appear to be crucial in determining the outcome of the differentiation process. Using the Caco-2 cell line, which undergoes spontaneous re-differentiation when grown past confluency, we observed a loss of VCAM-1 (vascular cell adhesion molecule 1) mRNA expression, while ICAM-1 (intercellular cell adhesion m...
An alternative supporting electrolyte for enzyme immobilization in conducting polymers Kiralp, Senem; Balik, Balam; KARATAŞ, SEVİM; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Gungorb, Atilla (Elsevier BV, 2008-03-01) In this study an alternative supporting electrolyte was used in enzyme immobilization. Invertase was studied to observe the effect of the supporting electrolyte. Sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone) was used as the supporting electrolyte during the electrolysis of pyrrole. The results show that the polymeric supporting electrolyte can be used instead of sodium dodecyl sulfate.
Investigating the anticarcinogenic role of salix aegyptiaca l. in colorectal carcinoma Enayat, Shabnam; Banerjee, Sreeparna; Department of Biology (2009) In this study, extracts from bark, leaves and catkins of Salix aegyptiaca L. were investigated for their antioxidant content by 2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) free radical quenching assay, total phenolic and total flavonoid assays. The highest antioxidant activity (19 ug/ml IC50 for inhibition of DPPH radical activity), total phenolic content (212 mg gallic acid equivalents/g of dried extract) and total flavonoid (479 mg catechin equivalents/g of dried extract) was observed in the ethanolic ex...
