Sphingolipids (SL) are structurally and functionally diverse molecules with important physiological functions, found associated with cell membranes, plasma lipoproteins, or extracellular vesicles (EV). Concentrations of SL are altered in various metabolic disorders such as obesity, implicating the regulation of inflammation, apoptosis, cell proliferation, autophagy, and insulin resistance…
Lipids represent the majority of biomolecules comprised in metabolomics. In this sense, a functional lipidomic configures an integrative strategy for the identification of bioactive lipids, membrane lipids composition, interactions of lipids with signaling proteins and metabolism enzymes. Consequently, lipids can influence pathological processes, such as inflammation and signaling of the …

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of the COVID-19 pandemic, with serious consequences for affected individuals and society as a whole. The biology and infection process of the virus have been intensively studied to gain a better understanding of the molecular basis of virus-host cell interactions. SARS-CoV-2 is known to bind to angiotensin-convertin…
SARS-CoV-2 infection has become a worldwide public health concern, severely affecting our society and economy, due to the disease's long incubation time and high prevalence. Thus, efforts were made to develop vaccines and antiviral treatments. The entry of SARS-CoV-2 into cells depends on binding to its ACE-2 receptor, triggering inflammatory cascades that are linked to the pathophysiolog…
Macrophages (MAs) are cells widely distributed by tissues, participating in various biological processes. These cells play an important role in inflammation with the production of cytokines and lipid mediators. For the activation of MA, the presence of soluble factors in the cellular microenvironment is necessary, polarizing them in two distinct patterns: classical activation (M1) or alte…
Many individuals infected with the severe acute respiratory syndrome virus coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) develop only mild symptoms, but some could develop a spectrum of severe symptoms. Although little understanding of the immunopathology of SARS-CoV-2, it is well described that this mechanism was associated with hyperinflammation, tissue damage and disruption of host target organ metabolis…
Inflammation is necessary for life and mostly beneficial, but sometimes inflammatory reactions can become excessive, and lead to harmful outcome. In several endemic diseases chronic inflammation is part of the pathophysiology. 5-Lipoxygenase (5-LO) has a central role in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) an important inflammatory mediators. LTs responses, which are often thought to ha…
