It has a molecular mass of approximately 75 kDa. This enzyme is widely expressed in various tissues including platelets lungs and pancreatic tissue. By converting polyunsaturated fatty acids such as arachidonic acid into bioactive lipids 12-LOX plays an important role in regulating cellular and physiological functions.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\n12-LOX influences many cellular processes such as inflammation and thrombosis regulation. It is part of the lipoxygenase pathway synthesizing lipid signaling molecules that modulate immune responses and cellular growth. The enzyme does not form part of a large protein complex but interacts with lipid membranes where it exerts its catalytic function. Through its activity 12-LOX contributes to the production of eicosanoids which are signaling molecules with various physiological roles.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\n12-LOX is involved in the arachidonic acid metabolism pathway and the eicosanoid signaling pathway. These pathways play roles in inflammation and immune response modulation. It works alongside other related lipoxygenases such as ALOX5 which produce different but related signaling molecules. The interaction between these enzymes helps maintain a balanced production of inflammatory mediators which controls cell proliferation and responses to external stimuli.\u003cbr\u003e\nAlterations in 12-LOX expression or function associate strongly with cardiovascular diseases and various types of cancers. In cardiovascular disease 12-LOX-derived eicosanoids contribute to the development of atherosclerosis by promoting inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. In cancer the dysregulation of 12-LOX can lead to increased tumor growth and metastasis. These conditions often exhibit altered interactions with proteins such as COX-2 another enzyme involved in eicosanoid production highlighting the role of 12-LOX in complex disease mechanisms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845051994281,"sku":"ab211506","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab211506","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
