    • Cysteinyl Leukotrienes and Their Receptors; Emerging Concepts 

      Kanaoka, Yoshihide; Boyce, Joshua A. (The Korean Academy of Asthma, Allergy and Clinical Immunology; The Korean Academy of Pediatric Allergy and Respiratory Disease, 2014)
      Cysteinyl leukotrienes (cys-LTs) are potent mediators of inflammation derived from arachidonic acid through the 5-lipoxygenase/leukotriene C4 synthase pathway. The derivation of their chemical structures and identification ...

    • Differential Regulation of Cysteinyl Leukotriene Receptor Signaling by Protein Kinase C in Human Mast Cells 

      Kondeti, Vinay; Duah, Ernest; Al-Azzam, Nosayba; Thodeti, Charles K.; Boyce, Joshua A.; Paruchuri, Sailaja (Public Library of Science, 2013)
      Cysteinyl leukotrienes (cys-LTs) are a group of lipid mediators that are potent bronchoconstrictors, powerful inducers of vascular leakage and potentiators of airway hyperresponsiveness. Cys-LTs play an essential role in ...

    • Fas-Activated Serine/Threonine Phosphoprotein Promotes Immune-Mediated Pulmonary Inflammation 

      Simarro, Maria; Giannattasio, Giorgio; De la Fuente, Miguel A.; Benarafa, Charaf; Subramanian, Kulandayan K.; Ishizawar, Rumey Chang; Balestrieri, Barbara; Andersson, Emma M.; Luo, Hongbo; Orduna, Antonio; Boyce, Joshua A.; Anderson, Paul Joseph (The American Association of Immunologists, 2010)
      We generated Fas-activated serine threonine phosphoprotein (FAST)-deficient mice \((FAST^{−/−})\) to study the in vivo role of FAST in immune system function. In a model of house dust mite-induced allergic pulmonary ...

    • Gene-by-environment effect of house dust mite on purinergic receptor P2Y12 (P2RY12) and lung function in children with asthma 

      Bunyavanich, S.; Boyce, Joshua A.; Raby, Benjamin Alexander; Weiss, Scott Tillman (Wiley-Blackwell, 2011)
      Background— Distinct receptors likely exist for leukotriene(LT)E4, a potent mediator of airway inflammation. Purinergic receptor P2Y12 is needed for LTE4-induced airways inflammation, and P2Y12 antagonism attenuates house ...

    • Impact of botanical oils on polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism and leukotriene generation in mild asthmatics

      Background: Dietary supplementation with botanical oils that contain n-6 and n-3 eighteen carbon chain (18C)-PUFA such as γ linolenic acid (GLA, 18:3n-6), stearidonic acid (SDA, 18:4n-3) and α linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3n-3) ...

    • LPA5 Is Abundantly Expressed by Human Mast Cells and Important for Lysophosphatidic Acid Induced MIP-1β Release 

      Lundequist, Anders; Boyce, Joshua A. (Public Library of Science, 2011)
      Background: Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lipid inducing proliferation, differentiation as well as cytokine release by mast cells through G-protein coupled receptors. Recently GPR92/LPA5 was identified as an ...
