Table 4
Effects of arachidonic (AA) fatty acid.
| Fatty acid | Condition | Study model | Treatment time | Dose/concentration | Molecules associated | Effect in tissue repair | Reference |
| AA | Wound healing | hUCB-MSC | 24 hours | 5 or 10 μM (in vitro) | Increased mTORser2481, Aktser407, PKCζ, and MMPs | Increased cell migration and angiogenesis (10 μM) | [91] | Intestinal ischemic injury | Pigs | 10 days | 0.5 or 5% of AA (diet) | Increased PGE2 | Preservation of epithelial barrier (5%) | [95] | IBD | Rats | 8 weeks | 0, 5, 35, or 240 mg/Kg of bw (oral administration) | Increased COX-2, LTB4, TXB2, and MPO | Increased inflammation and macrophage infiltration | [98] | Angiogenesis | Porcine endothelial cells | 24 hours | 0, 20, 50, 60, and 80 μM (in vitro) | NA | Increased cell spreading (20 μM) and reduced cell spreading (80 μM) | [101] |
