Emerging Roles and Therapeutic Applications of Arachidonic Acid Pathways in Cardiometabolic Diseases

Emerging Roles and Therapeutic Applications of Arachidonic Acid Pathways in Cardiometabolic Diseases

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38900855/

Cardiometabolic disease has become a major health burden worldwide, with sharply increasing prevalence but highly limited therapeutic interventions. Emerging evidence has revealed that arachidonic acid derivatives and pathway factors link...

Significant advances have been made in understanding AA pathways and their participation in cardiometabolic diseases. Despite the clear facts supporting AA pathway factors as exact sensors and contributors to cardiometabolic pathologies via specific biological mechanisms, there are several important questions to be addressed. To move the...
