Fish oil Prostaglandin G/H synthase 1 and 2 anti-inflammatory Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0126563Drug actionFish oil is made of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). … Fish oil is administered as an oral capsule or tablet, it can also be found as a parenteral emulsion when oral or enteral nutrition is not possible, insufficient, or contraindicated for different reasons
Castor Oil Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0174887Drug actionCastor Oil may also promote ulcer healing by increasing mucus and bicarbonate secretion and thickening the mucosal bilayer so the mucosa can generate new cells. … Castor Oil stimulates prostaglandin receptors on parietal cells in the stomach to reduce gastric acid secretion. Castor Oil activates prostaglandin EP3 receptors in parietal cells.

smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000048MetabolicNicotinate (niacin) and nicotinamide - more commonly known as vitamin B3 - are precursors of the coenzymes nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP … The precursors are fed into the NAD+ biosynthetic pathwaythrough adenylation and phosphoribosylation reactions.
Fructose and Mannose Degradation
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000064MetabolicFructose causes less of an insulin response compared to glucose and thus may be a preferred sugar for diabetics. … Fructose and mannose are monosaccharides that can be found in many foods. Fructose can join with glucose to form sucrose. Mannose can be converted to glucose. Both may be used as food sweeteners.
Androgen and Estrogen Metabolism
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000068MetabolicThis pathway describes the inactivation and catabolism of male (androgen) and female (estrogen) hormones. … Many steroid hormones are transformed by sulfatases, dehydrogenases and glucuronide transferases to enhance their solubility and to facilitate their elimination.
NAD+ Signalling and Aging
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0084271SignalingAn interesting link has emerged between NAD+ metabolism, SIRT1, SIRT3, and mitochondrial function. … NR and PARP inhibitors increased life span in worms via activation of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response UPRmt by sir2.1.
Glycine and Serine Metabolism
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000004MetabolicThis pathway describes the synthesis and breakdown of several small amino acids, including glycine, serine, and cysteine. … All of these compounds share common intermediates and almost all can be biosynthesized from one another. Serine and glycine are not essential amino acids and can be synthesized from several routes.
