supplement:

Arachidonate

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

The dramatic increase in production of leukotrienes by neutrophils when a physiological stimulus such as GM-CSF/fMLP is employed in the presence of thimerosal suggests a critical regulatory role of arachidonate reacylation that limits leukotriene biosynthesis in concert with 5-lipoxygenase and cytosolic phospholipase A2α activation.

Moreover, the inhibition of the reacylation of the released arachidonate with thimerosal results in greater than 4-times as much arachidonate released.

These eicosanoids were also produced in kidney marrow cells stimulated with ATP, and this production was greatly enhanced by preincubation with thimerosal , an inhibitor of arachidonate reacylation into phospholipids.
