As 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) is an emerging target in obesity and insulin resistance, we have investigated whether this arachidonate pathway is also implicated in the progression of obesity-related fatty liver disease. Our results show that 5-LO activity and 5-LO-derived product levels are significantly elevated in the liver of obese ob/ob mice with respect to wild-type controls. Treatment of ob/ob mice with a selective 5-LO inhibitor exerted a remarkable protection from hepatic steatosis as revealed by decreased oil red-O staining and reduced hepatic triglyceride (TG) concentrations. In addition, 5-LO inhibition in ob/ob mice downregulated genes involved in hepatic fatty acid uptake (i.e., L-FABP and FAT/CD36) and normalized peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) and acyl-CoA oxidase expression, whereas the expression of lipogenic genes [i.e., fatty acid synthase (FASN) and SREBP-1c] remained unaltered. Furthermore, 5-LO inhibition restored hepatic microsomal TG transfer protein (MTP) activity in parallel with a stimulation of hepatic VLDL-TG and apoB secretion in ob/ob mice. Consistent with these findings, 5-LO products directly inhibited MTP activity and triggered cytosolic TG accumulation in CC-1 cells, a murine hepatocyte cell line. Taken together, these findings identify a novel steatogenic role for 5-LO in the liver through mechanisms involving the regulation of hepatic MTP activity and VLDL-TG and apoB secretion. 相似文献

Arachidonic acid promotes phosphorylation of 5-lipoxygenase at Ser-271 by MAPK-activated protein kinase 2 (MK2) 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We demonstrated previously that 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), a key enzyme in leukotriene biosynthesis, can be phosphorylated by p38 MAPK-regulated MAPKAP kinases (MKs). Here we show that mutation of Ser-271 to Ala in 5-LO abolished MK2 catalyzed phosphorylation and clearly reduced phosphorylation by kinases prepared from stimulated polymorphonuclear leukocytes and Mono Mac 6 cells. Compared with heat shock protein 27 (Hsp-27), 5-LO was a weak substrate for MK2. However, the addition of unsaturated fatty acids (i.e. arachidonate 1-50 microm) up-regulated phosphorylation of 5-LO, but not of Hsp-27, by active MK2 in vitro, resulting in a similar phosphorylation as for Hsp-27. 5-LO was phosphorylated also by other serine/threonine kinases recognizing the motif Arg-Xaa-Xaa-Ser (protein kinase A, Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinase II), but these activities were not increased by fatty acids. HeLa cells expressing wild type 5-LO or S271A-5-LO, showed prominent 5-LO activity when incubated with Ca(2+)-ionophore plus arachidonate. However, when stimulated with only exogenous arachidonic acid, activity for the S271A mutant was significantly lower as compared with wild type 5-LO. It appears that phosphorylation at Ser-271 is more important for 5-LO activity induced by a stimulus that does not prominently increase intracellular Ca(2+) and that arachidonic acid stimulates leukotriene biosynthesis also by promoting this MK2-catalyzed phosphorylation. 相似文献

The lipoxygenases (LOs) are a family of nonheme iron dioxygenases that catalyse the insertion of molecular oxygen into polyunsaturated fatty acids. Five members of this gene family have been described in man, 5-LO, 12S-LO, 12R-LO, 15-LO and 15S-LO. Using partially purified recombinant 15S-LO enzyme and cells constitutively expressing this protein, we have compared the activity, substrate specificity, kinetic characteristics and regulation of this enzyme to that previously reported for 15-LO. 15S-LO has a threefold higher Km, similar Vmax and increased specificity of oxygenation for arachidonic acid, and a similar Km but decreased Vmax for linoleic acid in comparison to 15-LO. Unlike 15-LO, 15S-LO is not suicide inactivated by the products of fatty acid oxygenation. However, in common with other LOs, 15S-LO activity is regulated through calcium-dependent association of the enzyme with the membrane fraction of cells. In addition, whilst independently cloning the recently described 15S-LO, we identified a splice variant containing an in-frame 87-bp deletion corresponding to amino acids 401-429 inclusive. Modelling of the 15S-LO and subsequent studies with partially purified recombinant protein suggest that the deleted region comprises a complete alpha-helix flanking the active site of the enzyme resulting in decreased specificity of oxygenation and affinity for fatty acid substrates. Alternative splicing of 15S-LO would therefore provide a further level of regulation of fatty acid metabolism. These results demonstrate that there are substantial differences in the enzyme characteristics and regulation of the 15-LO isozymes which may reflect differing roles for the proteins in vivo. 相似文献

15-Lipoxygenase (15-LO)-induced oxidation of lipids in human LDL may be pro-atherogenic. However, the extent to which 15-LO promotes enzymatic oxidation of esterified (i.e., major) lipids in LDL may depend on various factors. Here, we show that overall, LDL lipid oxidation was favored with high activity of human 15-LO, that phospholipids were the preferred esterified substrate, and that low temperature maintained a higher proportion of enzymatic product. However, under all conditions, 15-LO induced alpha-tocopherol consumption and the accumulation of nonenzymatic products that predominated with increasing time of incubation and inactivation of the enzyme. Lysates prepared from cells overexpressing human 15-LO oxidized linoleic acid readily and in an almost exclusive enzymatic manner. In sharp contrast, such lysates failed to oxidize LDL lipids unless linoleic acid was added, in which case nonenzymatic oxidation of LDL lipids occurred.We conclude that although purified 15-LO can oxidize isolated LDL lipids in vitro, such oxygenation always includes nonenzymatic reactions that likely play a major role in the more extensive oxidation of LDL by cell-derived 15-LO. 相似文献

The murine lipoxygenase (LO) family consists of at least seven members classified according to the HETE (hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid) metabolite generated during arachidonic acid metabolism and the site of tissue expression. At present there are four 12-lipoxygenases that are functionally distinct, vary in cell and tissue distribution, catalytic activity and each are products of separate, linked genes. They are "platelet-type" 12-LO (P-12LO), "leukocyte-type" 12-LO (L-12LO), "epidermal-type" 12-LO (e-12LO) and the most recently discovered 12(R)-LO. In this report we characterize e-12LO, which was overexpressed in the baculovirus/insect cell expression system. The enzyme functions as a dual specificity 12/15-lipoxygenase with a 12-HETE/15-HETE product ratio of approximately 6:1 with arachidonic acid as substrate. Several other polyunsaturated fatty acids served as substrates for e-12LO such as gamma-linolenic, dihomo-gamma-linolenic and eicosapentaenoic acids. A green fluorescent protein/e-12LO fusion protein was localized to the cytosol of transfected HEK 293 cells. The e-12LO gene was expressed in mouse oocytes and early embryos. Western blot analysis revealed high level expression in postnatal day 3 mouse epidermal lysates. Together these data suggest that e-12LO plays a role in normal epidermal function and as yet an undiscovered role in early development. 相似文献

A variety of assay systems have been utilized to evaluate the inhibition of the key enzyme in leukotriene (LT) biosynthesis, 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO). We have developed an assay utilizing a cytosolic preparation of 5-LO from rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-1) cells. Enzyme activity was monitored by continous measurement of oxygen consumption. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis of products showed exclusive generation of 5-LO products. The assay proved useful for the evaluation of a variety of chemical classes of lipoxygenase inhibitors and clearly differentiated those compounds which extended the lag phase (e.g. A-64077) as opposed to the propagation phase of the enzyme activity (e.g. SK & F 105561). The data generated were in reasonable agreement with results from the assay of isolated human monocyte 5-LO and, with the exception of compounds which appear to have a significant effect on 5-LO translocation (e.g. MK-886 and Wy-49 232), inhibition of LT production by intact monocytes. This assay system proved to be a convenient and informative method to analyze inhibition of 5-LO activity. 相似文献

Lipoxygenation of Docosahexaenoic Acid by the Rat Pineal Body 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Abstract: Based on the inhibitor profile, production rate, and stereochemical purity of the hydroxylated products, it was demonstrated that lipoxygenation in rat brain occurs only in the pineal. Both positional and stereochemical specificities of the hydroxylation were observed only in pineal, clearly indicating that only the pineal is capable of lipoxygenating polyunsaturated fatty acids among the rat brain regions examined. Cerebral cortex also produced hydroxy products; however, they were racemic mixtures, indicating that peroxidation was responsible for their production. Rat pineal homogenate, obtained after the brain was perfused, metabolized [14C]docosahexaenoic acid ([1–14C]22:6n3) to monohydroxy derivatives, primarily by the 12-and, to a lesser extent, by the 15-lipoxygenase (LO) reaction. The resulting metabolites were 14(S)-and 17(S)-hydroxydocosahexaenoic acid (HDoHE), as determined by reversed-phase HPLC, chiral-phase HPLC, thermospray liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Because blood was removed by perfusion of the brain before incubation, it was clear that the observed LO activity was not due to contamination with blood cell components. The production rate of 17-HDoHE from 22:6n3 was higher than that of 15-hydroxyperoxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid from 20:4n6, whereas 12-LO activity toward these two substrates was comparable. These monohydroxy metabolites were also detected in the pineal body lipid extract using negative ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry. This is the first observation of endogenous production of hydroxylated compounds in pineal. The ratio of endogenous 15-LO to 12-LO products was considerably higher than that of the in vitro production from exogenous substrate. In some cases, 15-LO products were the major LO metabolites present in the lipid extract of pineal body for both 20:4n6 and 22:6n3. Both 12-and 15-LO activities were recovered mainly in the microsomal plus cytosolic fraction. In addition to monohydroxy products, epoxy, hydroxy derivatives were formed from 22:6n3 by the pineal. The major isomer was identified as 12-hydroxy-13, 14-epoxy-22:5n3. Key Words : Lipoxygenation-Docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n3)—Pineal—Rat brain—Hydroxydocosahexaenoic acid—Hepoxilin-like compound. 相似文献

Different patterns of arachidonate metabolism in autologous human blood monocytes and alveolar macrophages 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
M S Balter G B Toews M Peters-Golden 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1989,142(2):602-608
As peripheral blood monocytes (PBM) differentiate into tissue macrophages, they undergo a variety of functional changes. One such difference which has been described is an enhanced metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA) via the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway in alveolar macrophages (AM) as compared to PBM. In order to elucidate a possible mechanism for this difference, we compared the metabolism of endogenously released AA mobilized by agonists and of exogenously supplied fatty acid in adherent autologous PBM and AM obtained from six normal subjects. Exogenous AA was metabolized to larger amounts of both cyclooxygenase (CO) and 5-LO products by PBM as compared with AM. Although the two cell types released similar amounts of endogenous AA in response to ionophore A23187, marked differences in the pattern of its metabolism were observed. In PBM, a large proportion of released AA remained unmetabolized, and that which was metabolized was converted predominantly to CO products. In contrast, arachidonate released by AM was efficiently metabolized, predominantly via the 5-LO pathway. Similar results were obtained when cells were stimulated with the particulate zymosan, with PBM synthesizing mainly CO and AM, mainly 5-LO eicosanoids. In addition, culture of PBM for up to 5 days in an aerobic environment did not alter their response to A23187 stimulation. These results suggest that the lesser 5-LO metabolism by PBM than AM is not explained by lesser phospholipase or 5-LO activities, but rather a compartmentalization of the endogenous AA deacylated by phospholipase and the 5-LO enzyme in the PBM. The acquisition of the capacity to metabolize endogenous AA to large quantities of 5-LO products as mononuclear phagocytes differentiate in the lung may equip them with the ability to mount an inflammatory response in the alveolar space. 相似文献

Leukotrienes (LTs) are lipid messengers generated by leukocytes that drive inflammation and modulate neighboring cell function. The synthesis of LTs from arachidonic acid is initiated by the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO). We report for the first time that LT synthesis is inhibited by the direct action of protein kinase A (PKA) on 5-LO. The catalytic subunit of PKA directly phosphorylated 5-LO in vivo and in vitro and inhibited activity in intact cells and in vitro. Mutation of Ser-523 on human 5-LO prevented phosphorylation by PKA and restored LT synthesis. Treatment with PKA activators inhibited LTB(4) synthesis in 3T3 cells expressing wild type 5-LO but not in cells expressing the S523A mutant of 5-LO. The mechanism of inhibition of LTB(4) synthesis did not involve either reduced membrane association of activated 5-LO or redistribution of 5-LO from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Instead, PKA phosphorylation of recombinant 5-LO inhibited in vitro activity, as did co-transfection of cells with 5-LO plus the catalytic subunit of PKA. Also, substitution of Ser-523 with glutamic acid, mimicking phosphorylation, resulted in the total loss of 5-LO activity. These results indicate that PKA phosphorylates 5-LO on Ser-523, which inhibits the catalytic activity of 5-LO and reduces cellular LT generation. Thus, PKA activation, as can occur in response to adenosine, prostaglandin E(2), beta-adrenergic agonists, and other mediators, is a means of directly reducing 5-LO activity and LT synthesis that may be important in limiting inflammation and maintaining homeostasis. 相似文献

Fish thrombocytes are thought to be the evolutionary forerunners of mammalian platelets. Thrombocyte preparations made by conventional methods, such as density gradient centrifugation, contain other cell types such as neutrophilic granulocytes and lymphocytes that could interfere with subsequent experiments. In this study, rainbow trout thrombocytes were separated by density gradient centrifugation and further purified by magnetic cell sorting (MACS) using the thrombocyte specific monoclonal antibody, 30D8. Thrombocyte purity was assessed by reactivity to 30D8 using flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry. Following purification by density gradient centrifugation, thrombocytes were 66.9±9.2% (mean value±S.E.M., n=3) pure. Further purification by MACS significantly increased thrombocyte purity to 97.3±0.6%, whereas only 1.4% of the MACS ?ve fraction were identified as these cells. Incubation of thrombocytes isolated by density gradient alone with calcium ionophore, A23187, generated a range of eicosanoids derived from arachidonic or eicosapentaenoic acids, namely, leukotriene (LT)B4, LTB5, lipoxin (LX)A4, LXA5, 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) and 12-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid (12-HEPE). A similar eicosanoid generation profile was observed for cells in the MACS ?ve fraction; however, MACS +ve cells (thrombocytes) generated no 4 or 5 series LT or LX but did generate significant amounts of the 12-lipoxygenase (LO) products, 12-HETE and 12-HEPE. These results indicate that trout thrombocytes contain no demonstrable 5-LO activity and like their mammalian counterparts possess 12-LO activity. 相似文献

Expression of 5-lipoxygenase by human colorectal carcinoma Caco-2 cells during butyrate-induced cell differentiation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid, modulates proliferation and differentiation of normal and neoplastic colonocytes. We examined the expression of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and its metabolites in human colorectal carcinoma (Caco-2) cells, exposed to differentiation-inducing doses of butyrate. Treatment with butyrate significantly increased 5-lipoxygenase mRNA and protein in comparison to nontreated cells. Cyclooxygenases (COX)-1 and COX-2 mRNA were not significantly influenced by the treatment. However, 5-LO activity, low in nontreated cells, increased only minimally after butyrate, and its metabolic product (5-HETE) was detectable neither in control nor in treated cells. In contrast, 15-HETE (a product of 15-LO, which is also upregulated by butyrate) rose significantly. We conclude that, although being overexpressed by butyrate on mRNA and protein level, 5-LO remains inactive in differentiating Caco-2 cells. This is likely to be due either to some associated actions of butyrate, or to 5-LO-inhibition by 15-HETE, concomitantly induced by butyrate treatment. 相似文献

Evidence that increased 12-lipoxygenase expression impairs pancreatic beta cell function and viability 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Leukocyte type 12-lipoxygenase (12-LO) is an enzyme specifically expressed in the beta cells of the pancreas. 12-LO oxidizes fatty acids such as arachidonic acid and linoleic acids to their respective hydroperoxides. Increased concentration of lipid hydroperoxides causes oxidative stress and this could lead to cellular dysfunction. Increased expression of 12-LO in beta cells has been observed with use of inflammatory cytokines and during the prediabetic phase of beta cell dysfunction in the Zucker diabetic fatty rat model. Also mice deficient in 12-LO expression show a decreased incidence of immune-mediated diabetes. To further understand the role of 12-LO in beta cell metabolism, we over-expressed mouse leukocyte type 12-LO in INS-1 cells (transformed rat beta cell line) using an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector system. In 12-LO over-expressing cells, cell-associated 12-HETE levels increased approximately 5- and approximately 3-fold in the culture supernatant. In the cells over-expressing 12-LO, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) decreased by 25-30% one hour after exposure to high glucose (15mM). By 2h, GSIS decreased by 50-54% at high glucose levels. These data suggest that increased 12-LO products can reduce the synthesis, processing or secretion of insulin in beta cells. We next examined the effect of 12-LO over-expression on mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) by Western blot analyses using antibodies specific for different phospho-MAP kinases. Over-expression of 12-LO led to an activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase while it markedly reduced Erk1 and 2 phosphorylation (4-fold). Further, over-expression of 12-LO led to induction of apoptosis in beta cells as determined by DNA ladder assay. These results suggest that increased 12-LO plays a key role in altering beta cell metabolism. Thus, increased 12-LO expression can have a detrimental effect on pancreatic beta cell function and viability, suggesting that blockade of 12-LO activity or expression could provide a novel way to protect beta cells from inflammatory injury. 相似文献

BackgroundSubcellular distribution of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) to the perinuclear region and interaction with the 5-LO-activating protein (FLAP) are assumed as key steps in leukotriene biosynthesis and are prone to FLAP antagonists.MethodsFLAP and/or 5-LO were stably expressed in HEK293 cells, 5-LO products were analyzed by HPLC, and 5-LO and FLAP subcellular localization was visualized by immunofluorescence microscopy.Results5-LO and FLAP were stably expressed in HEK293 cells, and upon Ca2 +-ionophore A23187 stimulation exogenous AA was efficiently transformed into the 5-LO products 5-hydro(pero)xyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-H(p)ETE) and the trans-isomers of LTB4. A23187 stimulation caused 5-LO accumulation at the nuclear membrane only when FLAP was co-expressed. Unexpectedly, A23187 stimulation of HEK cells expressing 5-LO and FLAP without exogenous AA failed in 5-LO product synthesis. HEK cells liberated AA in response to A23187, and transfected HEK cells expressing 12-LO generated 12-HETE after A23187 challenge from endogenous AA. FLAP co-expression increased 5-LO product formation in A23187-stimulated cells at low AA concentrations. Only in cells expressing FLAP and 5-LO, the FLAP antagonist MK886 blocked FLAP-mediated increase in 5-LO product formation, and prevented 5-LO nuclear membrane translocation and co-localization with FLAP.ConclusionThe cellular biosynthesis of 5-LO products from endogenously derived substrate requires not only functional 5-LO/FLAP co-localization but also additional prerequisites which are dispensable when exogenous AA is supplied; identification of these determinants is challenging.General significanceWe present a cell model to study the role of FLAP as 5-LO interacting protein in LT biosynthesis in intact cells and for characterization of putative FLAP antagonists. 相似文献

We have shown that the 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LO) product 12S-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid increases monocyte adhesion to human endothelial cells (EC) in vitro. Recent studies have implicated 12/15-LO in mediating atherosclerosis in mice. We generated transgenic mice on a C57BL/6J (B6) background that modestly overexpressed the murine 12/15-LO gene (designated LOTG). LOTG mice had 2.5-fold elevations in levels of 12S-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid and a 2-fold increase in expression of 12/15-LO protein in vivo. These mice developed spontaneous aortic fatty streak lesions on a chow diet. Thus, we examined effects of 12/15-LO expression on early events leading to atherosclerosis in these mice. We found that, under basal unstimulated conditions, LOTG EC bound more monocytes than B6 control EC (18 +/- 2 versus 7 +/- 1 monocytes/field, respectively; p < 0.0001). Inhibition of 12/15-LO activity in LOTG EC using a 12/15-LO ribozyme completely blocked monocyte adhesion in LOTG mice. Thus, 12/15-LO activity is required for monocyte/EC adhesion in the vessel wall. Expression of ICAM-1 in aortic endothelia of LOTG mice was increased severalfold. VCAM-1 expression was not changed. In a series of blocking studies, antibodies to alpha(4) and beta(2) integrins in WEHI monocytes blocked monocyte adhesion to both LOTG and B6 control EC. Inhibition of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and connecting segment-1 fibronectin in EC significantly reduced adhesion of WEHI monocytes to LOTG EC. In summary, these data indicate that EC from LOTG mice are "pre-activated" to bind monocytes. Monocyte adhesion in LOTG mice is mediated through beta(2) integrin and ICAM-1 interactions as well as through VLA-4 and connecting segment-1 fibronectin/VCAM-1 interactions. Thus, 12/15-LO mediates monocyte/EC interactions in the vessel wall in atherogenesis at least in part through molecular regulation of expression of endothelial adhesion molecules. 相似文献

Abstract manganese lipoxygenase (Mn-LO) oxygenates 18:3n-3 and 18:2n-6 to bis-allylic 11S-hydroperoxy fatty acids, which are converted to 13R-hydroperoxy fatty acids. Other unsaturated C(16)-C(22) fatty acids, except 17:3n-3, are poor substrates, possibly because of ineffective enzyme activation (Mn(II)-->Mn(III)) by the produced hydroperoxides. Our aim was to determine whether unsaturated C(16)-C(22) fatty acids were oxidized by Mn(III)-LO. Mn(III)-LO oxidized C(16), C(19), C(20), and C(22) n-3 and n-6 fatty acids. The carbon chain length influenced the position of hydrogen abstraction (n-8, n-5) and oxygen insertion at the terminal or the penultimate 1Z,4Z-pentadienes. Dilinoleoyl-glycerophosphatidylcholine was oxidized by Mn-LO, in agreement with a "tail-first" model. 16:3n-3 was oxidized at the bis-allylic n-5 carbon and at positions n-3, n-7, and n-6. Long fatty acids, 19:3n-3, 20:3n-3, 20:4n-6, 22:5n-3, and 22:5n-6, were oxidized mainly at the n-6 and the bis-allylic n-8 positions (in ratios of approximately 3:2). The bis-allylic hydroperoxides accumulated with one exception, 13-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (13-HPETE). Mn(III)-LO oxidized 20:4n-6 to 15R-HPETE ( approximately 60%) and 13-HPETE ( approximately 37%) and converted 13-HPETE to 15R-HPETE. Mn(III)-LO G316A oxygenated mainly 16:3n-3 at positions n-7 and n-6, 19:3n-3 at n-10, n-8, and n-6, and 20:3n-3 at n-10 and n-8. We conclude that Mn-LO likely binds fatty acids tail-first and oxygenates many C(16), C(18), C(20), and C(22) fatty acids to significant amounts of bis-allylic hydroperoxides. 相似文献

The importance of hydroperoxide activation for the detection and assay of mammalian 5-lipoxygenase 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Sulfhydryl reagents such as dithiothreitol stabilized human leukocyte 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) during purification. During enzyme assay, however, these reagents led to irreproducible or unexpectedly low activity. This inconsistency in the assay was eliminated by inclusion of hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acids (1-5 microM) during the reaction which effected a 10-20-fold stimulation of 5-LO activity. Structural studies indicated that an intact hydroperoxy function, and a long-chain fatty acyl moiety were required for 5-LO stimulation. These data suggest that human leukocyte 5-LO is activated by hydroperoxy fatty acids, and that this results in a requirement for exogenous hydroperoxide in the presence of sulfhydryl reagents. 相似文献

Eicosanoid biosynthesis was examined with a human megakaryocytic cell line (Dami). Megakaryocytes incubated with [1-14C]arachidonic acid and either ionophore A23187 or thrombin generated both thromboxane and 12-hydroxyheptadecatrienoic acid (HHTrE). Exposure to phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) for 1 through 9 days induced differentiation and revealed an increase in the conversion of [1-14C]arachidonate to cyclooxygenase- and lipoxygenase (LO)-derived products. The LO-derived product was identified as 12S-HETE by its physical characteristics including GC/MS and chiral column SP-HPLC. PMA-treated Dami cells did not generate 5-HETE, leukotrienes or lipoxins from exogenous arachidonic acid while they did convert leukotriene A4 (LTA4) to lipoxin A4, lipoxin B4 and their respective all-trans isomers. In addition, COS-M6 cells transfected with a human 12-lipoxygenase cDNA and incubated with either arachidonic acid or LTA4 generated 12-HETE and lipoxins, respectively. The lipoxin profile generated by transfected COS-M6 cells incubated with LTA4 was similar to that generated by the PMA-treated Dami cells. Results indicate that human megakaryocytes can transform arachidonate and LTA4 to bioactive eicosanoids and that the 12-lipoxygenase appears upon further differentiation of these cells. In addition, they indicate that the 12-LO of human megakaryocytes and the 12-LO expressed by transfected COS cells can generate both lipoxins A4 and B4. Together they suggest that the human 12-LO can serve as a model of LX-synthetase activity with LTA4. 相似文献

Monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 plays a key role in atherosclerosis and inflammation associated with visceral adiposity by inducing mononuclear cell migration. Evidence shows that mouse peritoneal macrophages (MPM) express a 12-lipoxygenase (12/15-LO) that has been clearly linked to accelerated atherosclerosis in mouse models and increased monocyte endothelial interactions in both rodent and human cells. However, the role of 12/15-LO products in regulating MCP-1 expression in macrophages has not been clarified. In this study, we tested the role of 12/15-LO products using MPM and the mouse macrophage cell line, J774A.1 cells. We found that 12(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid [12(S)-HETE] increased MCP-1 mRNA and protein expression in J774A.1 cells and MPM. In contrast, 12(R)-HETE, a lipid not derived from 12/15-LO, did not affect MCP-1 expression. 15(S)-HETE also increased MCP-1 mRNA expression, but the effect was less compared with 12(S)-HETE. MCP-1 mRNA expression was upregulated in a macrophage cell line stably overexpressing 12/15-LO (Plox-86 cells) and in MPM isolated from a 12/15-LO transgenic mouse. In addition, the expression of MCP-1 was downregulated in MPM isolated from 12/15-LO knockout mice. 12(S)-HETE-induced MCP-1 mRNA expression was attenuated by specific inhibitors of protein kinase C (PKC) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38). 12(S)-HETE also directly activated NADPH oxidase activity. Two NADPH oxidase inhibitors, apocynin and diphenyleneiodonium chloride, blocked 12(S)-HETE-induced MCP-1 mRNA. Apocynin attenuated 12(S)-HETE-induced MCP-1 protein secretion. These data show that 12(S)-HETE increases MCP-1 expression by inducing PKC, p38, and NADPH oxidase activity. These results suggest a potentially important mechanism linking 12/15-LO activation to MCP-1 expression that induces inflammatory cell infiltration. 相似文献

AimsOur previous studies have established a role for 12/15-lipoxygenase (LO) in mediating the inflammatory response in diabetic retinopathy (DR). However, the extent at which the local or systemic induction of 12/15-LO activity involved is unclear. Thus, the current study aimed to characterize the relative contribution of retinal endothelial versus monocytic/macrophagic 12/15-LO to inflammatory responses in DR.Materials & methodsWe first generated a clustered heat map for circulating bioactive lipid metabolites in the plasma of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice using liquid chromatography coupled with mass-spectrometry (LC–MS) to evaluate changes in circulating 12/15-LO activity. This was followed by comparing the in vitro mouse endothelium-leukocytes interaction between leukocytes isolated from 12/15-LO knockout (KO) versus those isolated from wild type (WT) mice using the myeloperoxidase (MPO) assay. Finally, we examined the effects of knocking down or inhibiting endothelial 12/15-LO on diabetes-induced endothelial cell activation and ICAM-1 expression.ResultsAnalysis of plasma bioactive lipids' heat map revealed that the activity of circulating 12/15-LO was not altered by diabetes as evident by no significant changes in the plasma levels of major metabolites derived from 12/15-lipoxygenation of different PUFAs, including linoleic acid (13-HODE), arachidonic acid (12- and 15- HETEs), eicosapentaenoic acid (12- and 15- HEPEs), or docosahexaenoic acid (17-HDoHE). Moreover, leukocytes from 12/15-LO KO mice displayed a similar increase in adhesion to high glucose (HG)-activated endothelial cells as do leukocytes from WT mice. Furthermore, abundant proteins of 12-LO and 15-LO were detected in human retinal endothelial cells (HRECs), while it was undetected (15-LO) or hardly detectable (12-LO) in human monocyte-like U937 cells. Inhibition or knock down of endothelial 12/15-LO in HRECs blocked HG-induced expression of ICAM-1, a well-known identified important molecule for leukocyte adhesion in DR.ConclusionOur data support that endothelial, rather than monocytic/macrophagic, 12/15-LO has a critical role in hyperglycemia-induced ICAM-1 expression, leukocyte adhesion, and subsequent local retinal barrier dysfunction. This may facilitate the development of more precisely targeted treatment strategies for DR. 相似文献
