5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid and Thymoma

5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid has been researched along with Thymoma in 1 studies

5,8,11,14-Eicosatetraynoic Acid: A 20-carbon unsaturated fatty acid containing 4 alkyne bonds. It inhibits the enzymatic conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins E(2) and F(2a).

Thymoma: A neoplasm originating from thymic tissue, usually benign, and frequently encapsulated. Although it is occasionally invasive, metastases are extremely rare. It consists of any type of thymic epithelial cell as well as lymphocytes that are usually abundant. Malignant lymphomas that involve the thymus, e.g., lymphosarcoma, Hodgkin's disease (previously termed granulomatous thymoma), should not be regarded as thymoma. (From Stedman, 25th ed)

"5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA), a widely used inhibitor of cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase, inhibited the incorporation of 14C-arachidonic acid into cell lipids of the murine thymoma EL4 whereas oleic acid had no effect."3.67Incorporation of 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA) into cell lipids: competition with arachidonic acid for esterification.
