Suppression of superoxide anion and elastase release by C18 unsaturated fatty acids in human neutrophils

The structure-activity relationship of 18-carbon fatty acids (C18 FAs) on human neutrophil functions and their underlying mechanism were investigated. C18 unsaturated (U)FAs potently inhibited superoxide anion production, elastase release, and Ca2+ mobilization at concentrations of <10 μM in form...
