To examine steroid-induced biochemical alterations in the mast cell secretory process, rats were injected with intramuscular dexamethasone or saline for 4 days, and serosal mast cells and lung tissue were obtained from each group. Radioligand binding studies utilizing 1-[propyl-1,2-3H]dihydroalprenolol (3H-DHA) demonstrated a 23.1 +/- 0.8% increase in rat lung beta-adrenergic receptors in steroid-treated rats, but the mast cell beta-adrenergic receptors were unaffected. Neither resting mast cell cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP) levels nor the degree of cAMP augmentation induced by isoproterenol were changed by steroid administration. Mast cells from rats treated with dexamethasone released only 48.6 +/- 8.9 and 58.8 +/- 6.0% of the beta-hexosaminidase released from saline-treated rat mast cells when sensitized with anti-dinitrophenyl (DNP) IgE and challenged with DNP-bovine serum albumin antigen or the calcium ionophore A23187, respectively. [3H]serotonin release in cells from steroid-treated rats was 41.8 +/- 7.9 and 87.6 +/- 2.6% of control release stimulated by antigen or A23187, respectively. [14C]arachidonic acid incorporation into mast cell phospholipids followed by antigen or A23187 challenge revealed that cells from dexamethasone-treated rats release 61.3 +/- 15.6% and 62.1 +/- 11.8% of labeled metabolites, respectively, compared to controls. The addition of exogenous arachidonic acid 5 min prior to antigen challenge caused a similar decrease in mediator release in cells from saline- and steroid-treated rats (36.7 +/- 6.1 and 38.4 +/- 0.9%, respectively). When arachidonic acid was added to sensitized cells after specific antigen, no significant changes in beta-hexosaminidase release were noted in either group. Chronic in vivo dexamethasone administration markedly decreases mast cell mediator release without changing resting cAMP levels. The release of arachidonic acid metabolites is reduced in steroid-treated cells, possibly through the inhibition of phospholipases. Exogenous arachidonic acid cannot overcome this inhibition, suggesting that an earlier step in phospholipid metabolism, perhaps involving phospholipase C, may be important.  相似文献

Human and rat peritoneal macrophages and rat Kupffer cells were labelled with [1-14C] arachidonic acid and stimulated with the calcium ionophore A23187. The metabolites formed were separated by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Human peritoneal macrophages formed especially leukotriene B4, 5-hydroxy-6,8,11,14 eicosatetraenoic acid and small amounts of leukotriene C4 and thromboxane B2, 12-hydroxy-5,8,10 heptadecatrienoic acid and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha, whereas rat peritoneal macrophages mainly produced cyclooxygenase products and in particular thromboxane B2 and 12-hydroxy-5,8,10 heptadecatrienoic acid. Rat Kupffer cells synthesized mainly cyclooxygenase products such as prostaglandin F2 alpha, prostaglandin D2 and prostaglandin E2. These results indicate that the profile of eicosanoids production by macrophages is dependent both on the species and on the tissue from which the macrophage is derived.  相似文献

A cloned murine mast cell line designated MC9 expresses a 5-lipoxygenase activity when stimulated with the ionophore A23187. Upon addition of 0.5 microM ionophore, MC9 cells produce 270 +/- 43 pmoles 5-HETE, 74 +/- 40 pmoles 5,12 diHETEs and 65 +/- 31 pmoles LTC4/10(6) cells from 37 microM exogenously added [1-14C]arachidonic acid in two minutes. 5-HETE and 5,12-diHETES, including LTB4 were identified by GC/MS whereas LTC4 was confirmed by HPLC mobility, bio-assay, RIA and enzymatic transformation. The principal cyclooxygenase products were PGD2 and TxB2 (8.5 +/- 2.4 and 5.4 +/- 1.2 pmoles/10(6) cells respectively). Prostanoids were identified by comigration with authentic standards on two-dimensional thin layer chromatograms. Production of arachidonic acid lipoxygenase metabolites stimulated with ionophore proved relatively insensitive to removal of extracellular Ca+2 and chelation by EGTA. In addition, MC9 5-lipoxygenase required only low micromolar amounts of exogenous arachidonic acid for maximal activity. Whereas production of arachidonic acid metabolites lasted only two to five minutes, histamine release stimulated with ionophore was not initiated until 5 minutes (12 +/- 3% cellular histamine) and continued for 30 minutes (37 +/- 7% cellular histamine). Although these cells metabolize arachidonic acid differently from the classic peritoneal-derived mast cell, they resemble subpopulations found in certain tissues (such as mucosa) and should be useful in understanding the biochemistry of mast cell mediator release.  相似文献

In resting mesangial cells, angiotensin II and the calcium ionophore A23187 stimulated prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) formation. After pretreatment with interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta) or tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha), which are themselves potent stimuli for PGE2 synthesis, mesangial cells displayed an amplified response to angiotensin II and A23187. The cytokine-induced effects occurred in a time- and dose-dependent manner and were attenuated by actinomycin D, cycloheximide and dexamethasone. IL-1 beta and TNF alpha treatment also increased the amount of arachidonic acid released after stimulation of cells with angiotensin II and A23187. In addition, IL-1 beta but not TNF alpha treatment augmented the formation of PGE2 from exogenous arachidonic acid by mesangial cells. Furthermore, the conversion of prostaglandin H2 to PGE2 was not changed by IL-1 beta and TNF alpha. These results suggest that IL-1 beta and TNF alpha exert a priming effect on PGE2 production in mesangial cells.  相似文献

The effect of adrenalectomy on the formation of cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase products by activated peritoneal rat macrophages was determined. After isolation, the cells were incubated with [1-14C]arachidonic acid and the calcium ionophore A23187 and the metabolites isolated by HPLC chromatography. The main components formed in the controls are 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha, thromboxane B2 and 12-HETE. One peak represents 5,12-di-HETE. Smaller amounts of prostaglandin F2 alpha, prostaglandin E2, prostaglandin D2, leukotriene B4 and 15-HETE are also present. After adrenalectomy, a considerable increase occurs in the amounts of leukotriene B4, 15-HETE and 12-HETE. The increase in the prostaglandins is smaller. The compounds formed from endogenous arachidonic acid are also determined. In the cells of the controls, 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha and thromboxane B2 are produced in higher amounts than leukotriene B4. After adrenalectomy, the formation of leukotriene B4 is much more increased than that of 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha. These effects are most probably related to a diminished amount or inactivation of lipocortin, a glucocorticosteroid-induced peptide with phospholipase A2 inhibitory activity in adrenalectomized animals.  相似文献

In astrocyte-enriched cultures of the rat cerebral cortex the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 provoked the breakdown of inositol phospholipids, the liberation of arachidonic acid and the release of prostaglandins E2, F2 alpha, I2 and thromboxane A2. However, agonists for receptors also coupled to inositol phospholipid metabolism in these cells failed to produce an increase in the release of both arachidonic acid and eicosanoids. Results suggest that the A23187-stimulated release of arachidonic acid and eicosanoids is caused by a phospholipase A2-mediated attack on lipids other than the inositol phospholipids. Moreover, receptors linked to inositol lipid turnover are not involved in the control of eicosanoid release from astrocytes.  相似文献

The effect of methanol on the ability of elicited rat peritoneal leukocytes to metabolise endogenous and exogenous arachidonic acid was studied using 2H8-arachidonic acid as the source of exogenous arachidonic acid and calcium ionophore A23187 as the lipoxygenase stimulus. As the methanol concentration increased from 0 to 992 mM there was a slight decrease in the total amount of LTB4 and related compounds formed, however examination of the ratio of undeuterated to deuterated LTB4 formed revealed that as the methanol concentration increased from 0 to 992 mM, the percentage of undeuterated LTB4 present decreased significantly from 57 +/- 9% to 2 +/- 1%. Methanol interferes with the ability of these cells to utilise endogenous arachidonic acid even in the presence of the powerful stimulus calcium ionophore A23187 thus allowing the facile biosynthesis of a range of deuterium labelled arachidonic acid metabolites.  相似文献

A cloned murine mast cell line designated MC9 expresses a 5-lipoxygenase activity when stimulated with the ionophore A23187. Upon addition of 0.5 uM ionophore, MC9 cells produce 270 ± 43 pmoles 5-HETE, 74 ± 40 pmoles 5,12 di HETEs and 65 ± 31 pmoles LTC4/106 cells from 37 uM exogenously added [1-14C]arachidonic acid in two minutes. 5-HETE and 5,12-di HETES, including LTB4 were identified by GC/MS whereas LTC4 was confirmed by HPLC mobility, bio-assay, RIA and enzymatic transformation. The principal cyclooxygenase products were PGD2 and TxB2 (8.5 ± 2.4 and 5.4 ± 1.2 pmoles/106 cells respectively). Prostanoids were identified by comigration with authentic standards on two-dimensional thin layer chromatograms. Production of arachidonic acid lipoxygenase metabolites stimulated with ionophore proved relatively insensitive to removal of extracellular Ca+2 and chelation by EGTA.

Myofibroblasts were cultured successfully from experimental wound tissue in rat palatal mucoperiosteum. Arachidonic acid metabolizing activity in cultured myofibroblasts was compared with that in fibroblasts cultured from normal mucoperiosteum. Prostaglandins biosynthesized from [14C]arachidonic acid in cell-free homogenates of both myofibroblasts and fibroblasts were prostaglandins D2, E2 and F2 alpha, and the activity producing each prostaglandin was not significantly different between the myofibroblasts and the fibroblasts, whereas smooth muscle cells, which are histologically similar to myofibroblasts, produced mainly 6-ketoprostaglandin F1 alpha, and relatively small amounts of prostaglandin E2. The release of arachidonic acid from cells prelabeled with [14C]arachidonic acid was compared among three types of cell. The calcium ionophore A23187 strongly enhanced arachidonic acid release in all three cell types. Bradykinin, 5-hydroxytryptamine and prostaglandin F2 alpha affected the stimulation of arachidonic acid release in the fibroblasts but were less or not effective in the myofibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. In addition, prostaglandin E2 biosynthesized in response to several stimuli was measured by radioimmunoassay. The content of prostaglandin E2 correlated closely with arachidonic acid release. In this study, we showed homogeneity between the myofibroblasts and fibroblasts in prostaglandin synthesizing activity and similarity in response to various stimuli between the myofibroblasts and smooth muscle cells, from the standpoint of arachidonic acid metabolism.  相似文献

The functional and biochemical characterization of rat bone marrow derived mast cells (RBMMC) confirms both species-related differences between rat and mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells (MBMMC) as well as mast cell heterogeneity in a single species. Such RBMMC have the staining characteristics of mucosal mast cells and contain the mucosal mast cell protease. The RBMMC release the preformed granule mediator beta-hexosaminidase both in response to immunologic stimulation with 200 ng Ag (net release 15.8 +/- 3.8%) and in response to 1 microM calcium ionophore A23187 (net release 21.8 +/- 6.8%). However, compound 48/80, substance P, and somatostatin did not induce mast cell degranulation. In experiments with optimal beta-hexosaminidase release, the RBMMC generated similar quantities of the newly formed arachidonic acid metabolites leukotriene C4 and PGD2 when stimulated with either Ag or calcium ionophore A23187. The RBMMC incorporate [35S]sulfate into proteoglycans consisting of 90% chondroitin sulfates and 10% heparin. The chondroitin sulfates were comprised of chondroitin 4 sulfate and chondroitin sulfate diB sulfated disaccharides in a ratio of 4/1. Although we show that RBMMC and MBMMC share a low histamine content, functional IgE receptors and unresponsiveness to cromolyn and selective secretagogues (compound 48/80, substance P, and somatostatin), we also provide evidence that RBMMC differ from MBMMC in their profile of newly generated mediators, preformed granule proteoglycan, and lack of proliferative response to mouse IL-3.  相似文献

The effects of alcohols on the formation of leukotrienes, 5-HETE and prostaglandin D2 in mastocytoma cells and human neutrophils were studied. In murine mastocytoma cells, alcohols appear to have at least two different effects on the production of these arachidonic acid metabolites. At low levels of cellular arachidonic acid achieved after stimulation with calcium ionophore A23187 or addition of low levels of exogenous arachidonic acid, alcohols appear to have a general inhibitory effect on the production of lipoxygenase metabolites. In the presence of higher concentrations of cellular arachidonic acid, ethanol and methanol stimulated the production of lipoxygenase metabolites, but had no large stimulatory effect on the cyclo-oxygenase metabolite, prostaglandin D2. Under these conditions, n-propanol and t-butanol have inhibitory effects on leukotriene production. Human neutrophils are less sensitive to ethanol than mastocytoma cells, but stimulatory effects were still found at high ethanol concentrations (220-430 mM).  相似文献

Epidermal Langerhans cells are macrophage-like la+ leukocytes that are critically involved in cutaneous immune reactions. Because macrophages exert their immunoregulatory activity in part by generation of oxygenated arachidonic acid metabolites, we systematically studied arachidonic acid transformations by purified guinea pig Langerhans cells and compared them with mixed epidermal cells and Langerhans cell-depleted keratinocytes. Products formed from arachidonic acid by cell homogenates were measured after thin-layer or reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatographic separation. In addition, leukotriene B4 and C4 formation was assessed in supernatants of Ca ionophore A23187-challenged intact cells by radioimmunoassay. Mixed epidermal cells converted arachidonic acid predominantly via cyclooxygenase and 12-lipoxygenase pathways. The main products were prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) and 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-Hete), although significant amounts of PGE2, PGF2 alpha, and 6-keto-PGF1 alpha were formed as well. PGD2 synthesis was dependent on the presence of reduced glutathione. The product spectrum formed by Langerhans cell-depleted keratinocytes was virtually indistinguishable from mixed epidermal cells. In contrast, Langerhans cells showed a markedly different metabolism of arachidonic acid. They exhibited an exceedingly high PGD2-generating capacity, whereas only minor amounts of 12-HETE and very low amounts of other prostaglandins were synthesized. The PGD2/12-HETE ratio was 1.22 for mixed epidermal cells and 4.37 for Langerhans cells. Leukotriene production from exogenous or endogenous arachidonic acid could not be demonstrated by either radioenzymatic or radioimmunologic detection methods. We conclude that guinea pig Langerhans cells transform arachidonic acid predominantly to PGD2, which might mediate significant immunoregulatory, inflammatory, and antitumoral activity in the skin.  相似文献

To determine identities of mediators and mechanisms for their release from pulmonary airway epithelial cells, we examined the capacities of epithelial cells from human, dog and sheep airways to incorporate, release and oxygenate arachidonic acid. Purified cell suspensions were incubated with radiolabeled arachidonic acid and/or ionophore A23187; fatty acid esterification and hydrolysis were traced chromatographically, and oxygenated metabolites were identified using high-pressure liquid chromatography and mass-spectrometry. In each species, cellular uptake of 10 nM arachidonic acid was concentrated in the phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine fractions, and subsequent incubation with 5 microM A23187 caused release of 10-12% of the radiolabeled pool selectively from phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol. By contrast, the products of arachidonic acid oxygenation were species-dependent and in the case of human cells were also novel: A23187-stimulated human epithelial cells converted arachidonic acid predominantly to 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE) and two distinct 8,15-diols in addition to prostaglandin (PG) E2 and PGF2 alpha. Cell incubation with exogenous arachidonic acid (2.0-300 microM) led to progressively larger amounts of 15-HETE and the dihydroxy, epoxyhydroxy and keto acids characteristic of arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase. Both dog and sheep cells converted exogenous or endogenous arachidonic acid to low levels of 5-lipoxygenase products, including leukotriene B4 without significant 15-lipoxygenase activity. In the cyclooxygenase series, sheep cells selectively released PGE2, while dog cells generated predominantly PGD2. The findings demonstrate that stereotyped esterification and phospholipase activities are expressed at uniform levels among airway epithelial cells from these species, but pathways for oxygenating arachidonic acid allow mediator diversity depending greatly on species and little on arachidonic acid presentation.  相似文献

The output of prostaglandins I2, E2, F2 alpha and 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-PGF2 alpha (PGFM) from third passage day 20 rat fetal fibroblasts and type II alveolar pneumonocytes was studied. In 2 h incubations, the output levels for each cell type were: PGI2 greater than PGE2 much greater than PGF2 alpha = PGFM when cells were incubated with Ca2+ ionophore A23187 (10 microM) or arachidonic acid (1 microgram/ml).  相似文献

CHO transfectants expressing the three subtypes of rat alpha2 adrenergic receptors (alpha2AR): alpha2D, alpha2B, alpha2C were studied to compare the transduction pathways leading to the receptor-mediated stimulation of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) in the corresponding cell lines CHO-2D, CHO-2B, CHO-2C. The alpha2B subtype stimulated the arachidonic acid (AA) release after incubation of the cells with 1 microM epinephrine, whereas alpha2D and alpha2C gave no stimulation. Calcium ionophore A23187 (1 microM) increased the release by a factor of 2-4 in the three strains. When cells were incubated with both epinephrine and Ca2+ ionophore, the AA release differed greatly between cell lines with strong potentiation in CHO-2B (2-3 times greater than Ca2+ ionophore alone), moderate potentiation in CHO-2D, and no potentiation in CHO-2C. The three cell lines each inhibited adenylylcyclase with similar efficiencies when 1 microM epinephrine was used as the agonist. The potentiation depended on both alpha2AR and Gi proteins since yohimbine and pertussis toxin inhibited the process. Pretreatment of CHO-2B cells with MAFP which inhibits both cytosolic and Ca2+-independent PLA2, reduced the release of AA induced by epinephrine+Ca2+ ionophore to basal value, whereas bromoenol lactone, a specific Ca2+-independent PLA2 inhibitor, had no effect. Preincubation of the cells with the intracellular calcium chelator BAPTA gave a dose-dependent inhibition of the arachidonic acid (AA) release. In CHO cells expressing the angiotensin II type 1 receptor, coupled to a Gq protein, the agonist (10-7 M) produced maximal AA release: there was no extra increase when angiotensin and Ca2+ ionophore were added together. There was no increase in the amount of inositol 1,4, 5-triphosphate following stimulation of CHO-2B, -2C, -2D cells with 1 microM epinephrine. Epinephrine led to greater phosphorylation of cPLA2, resulting in an electrophoretic mobility shift for all three cell lines, so inadequate p42/44 MAPKs stimulation was not responsible for the weaker stimulation of cPLA2 in CHO-2C cells. Therefore, the stimulation of cPLA2 by Gi proteins presumably involves another unknown mechanism. The differential stimulation of cPLA2 in these transfectants will be of value to study the actual involvement of the transduction pathways leading to maximal cPLA2 stimulation.  相似文献

Canine tracheal epithelial cells freshly isolated from mongrel dog trachea were used to study relationships between arachidonic acid metabolism and chloride ion movement. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of the cell incubation media after the addition of A23187 showed the presence of prostaglandin H synthase and lipoxygenase-derived metabolites. The major prostaglandin H synthase metabolite identified by HPLC, gas chromatography, and mass spectrometry was prostaglandin (PG) D2. The major lipoxygenase metabolites were leukotriene (LT) C4 and LTB4. LTB4 was identified by HPLC, UV spectroscopy, and gas chromatography. Straight phase HPLC of the methyl esters indicated only a minor formation of LTB4 isomers. LTC4 was identified by HPLC, UV spectroscopy, and conversion to LTD4 by gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase. Analysis by radioimmunoassays indicated approximately 1-2 ng of LTB4 and peptide LT formed by 10(6) cells after A23187 stimulation. The addition of ionophore A23187 caused a rapid release of arachidonic acid metabolites which was completed within 5 min of stimulation. Cl- secretion was measured in parallel studies of excised tracheas in Ussing chambers. Cl- secretion occurred at 2-3 min after the addition of ionophore, and the most rapid change occurred with the highest PGD2 concentrations. Indomethacin produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of PGD2 formation and Cl- movement. The addition of PGE2, PGD2, and PGH2 effectively stimulated Cl- secretion. LTC4 also stimulated Cl- secretion, but the stimulation was inhibited by indomethacin. These results indicate that canine tracheal epithelial cells metabolize arachidonic acid via both prostaglandin H synthase and lipoxygenase enzymes. It appears that endogenous PGD2 formation is the important variable controlling the Cl- ion movement in canine trachea.  相似文献

The effects of an inhalation anesthetic, halothane (2-bromo-2-chloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane) on the formation of 5-lipoxygenase metabolites such as leukotriene B4, 5(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE), 6-trans-isomers of leukotriene B4 and leukotriene C4 were studied in human leukocytes stimulated with calcium ionophore A23187. Halothane inhibited the formation of all these metabolites dose dependently and the formation was restored by removal of the drug. The anesthetic also reversibly inhibited the release of [3H]arachidonic acid from neutrophils with a half-inhibition concentration of less than 0.19 mM. The formation of 5-lipoxygenase metabolites was not inhibited by the anesthetic when leukocytes were stimulated with the ionophore in the presence of exogenous arachidonic acid. These observations indicate that the inhibitory effect of halothane on the formation of 5-lipoxygenase metabolites in leukocytes is mainly due to the inhibition of arachidonic acid release.  相似文献

Dexamethasone inhibited the stimulus-induced prostaglandin E2 formation by rat Kupffer cells in primary culture, e.g. after treatment with zymosan, phorbol ester, calcium ionophore A23187, platelet-activating factor or lipopolysaccharide. Prostaglandin E2 production from added free arachidonic acid was not influenced by the hormone. The time course, as well as the partial inhibition of the hormone effect by actinomycin D and cycloheximide, point to the hormone-induced formation of a protein which regulates phospholipase A2. The hormone did not affect the phagocytotic activity of the Kupffer cells. The quantity of [3H]arachidonic acid incorporated into phospholipids was also not altered by dexamethasone. After stimulation with zymosan, [3H]arachidonic acid was liberated from phosphatidylcholine only. Superoxide generation by rat Kupffer cells was induced by zymosan, phorbol ester and, to a much smaller extent, by platelet-activating factor. A23187 and lipopolysaccharide were without effect. In contrast to prostaglandin formation, the generation of superoxide was not influenced by dexamethasone. These results indicate that in cultured rat Kupffer cells prostaglandin formation and superoxide generation are independently triggered processes.  相似文献

Purified rat mast cells were used to study the effects of anti-inflammatory steroids on the release of [1-14C]-arachidonic acid ([1-14C]AA) and metabolites. Mast cells were incubated overnight with glucocorticoids, [1-14C]AA incorporated into cellular phospholipids and the release of [1-14C]AA, and metabolites determined using a variety of secretagogues. Release of [1-14C]AA and metabolites by concanavalin A, the antigen ovalbumin and anti-immunoglobulin in E antibody was markedly reduced by glucocorticoid treatment. Neither the total incorporation of [1-14C]AA nor the distribution into phospholipids was altered by hydrocortisone pretreatment. Glucocorticoid pretreatment did not alter [1-14C]AA release stimulated by somatostatin, compound 48/80, or the calcium ionophore, A23187. These data indicate that antiinflammatory steroids selectively inhibit immunoglobulin dependent release of arachidonic acid from rat mast cells. These findings question the role of lipomodulin and macrocortin as general phospholipase inhibitors and suggest that they may be restricted to immunoglobulin stimuli.  相似文献

The effect of methanol on the ability of elicited rat peritoneal leukocytes to metabolise endogenous and exogenous arachidonic acid was studied using 2H8-arachidonic acid as the source of exogenous arachidonic acid and calcium ionophore A23187 as the lipoxygenase stimulus. As the methanol concentration increased from 0 to 992 mM there was a slight decrease in the total amount of LTB4 and related compounds formed, however examination of the ratio of undeuterated to deuterated LTB4 formed revealed that as the methanol concentration increased fro 0 to 992 mM, the percentage of undeuterated LTB4 present decreased significantly from 57 ± 9% to 2 ± 1 %. Methanol interfers with the ability of these cells to utilise endogenous arachidonic acid even in the presence of the powerful stimulus calcium ionophore A23187 thus allowing the facile biosynthesis of a range of deuterium labelled arachidonic acid metabolites.  相似文献
