AIM: We tested the hypothesis that 20-HETE production contributes to platelet derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB stimulated migration of VSMC in a cell culture model. METHODS: Studies were performed with A10 cells which are a rat vascular smooth muscle derived cell line. Migration was determined using a Boyden chamber chemotactic assay. RESULTS: Pre-treatment of cells with two doses of 20-HETE (100 and 500 nM) significantly increased PDGF-BB stimulated VSMC migration by 34-58% of control; whereas, prior incubation of cells with inhibitors of 20-HETE production, 17-ODYA (1-25 M) or HET0016 (100 nM), significantly decreased PDGF-BB stimulated migration by 40-90%. 20-HETE mediated increase in PDGF-BB migration was completely prevented by the 20-HETE antagonist, WIT-002. In order to determine what second messenger pathways are involved in the 20-HETE mediated stimulation of VSM migration, experiments were performed with specific inhibitors of tyrosine kinase (tyrphostin 25, 10 microM), mitogen-activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MEK, PD98059, 20 microM and U0126, 10 microM), protein kinase C (Myr-PKC, 50 microM), and phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) (wortmannin, 50 nM). Blockade of MEK and PI3K all abolished the increase in 20-HETE mediated migration. CONCLUSION: 20-HETE stimulates PDGF-mediated VSM migration acting through pathways that involve MEK and PI3K.  相似文献

Mouse peritoneal macrophages metabolize dihomogammalinolenic acid (20:3n-6) primarily to 15-hydroxy-8,11,13-eicosatrienoic acid (15-OH-20:3). Since the biological properties of this novel trienoic eicosanoid remain poorly defined, the effects of increasing concentrations of 15-OH-20:3 and its arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) derived analogue. 15-hydroxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE), on mouse macrophage 20:4n-6 metabolism were investigated. Resident peritoneal macrophages were prelabeled with [3H]-20:4n-6 and subsequently stimulated with zymosan in the presence of either 15-OH-20:3 or 15-HETE (1-30 microM). After 1 hr, the radiolabeled soluble metabolites were analyzed by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. 15-OH-20:3 inhibited zymosan-induced leukotriene C4 (IC50 = 2.4 microM) and 5-HETE (IC50 = 3.1 microM) synthesis. In contrast to the inhibition of macrophage 5-lipoxygenase, 15-OH-20:3 enhanced 12-HETE synthesis (5-30 microM) and had no measurable effect on cyclooxygenase metabolism (1-10 microM) i.e., 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha and prostaglandin E2 synthesis. Addition of exogenous 15-HETE produced similar effects. These results suggest that the manipulation of macrophage 15-OH-20:3n-6 levels may provide a measure of cellular control over 20:4n-6 metabolism, specifically, leukotriene production.  相似文献

The sensitivity of the 5-lipoxygenase to inhibition by 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA) is species- and/or tissue-dependent. Guinea pig peritoneal polymorphonuclear leukocytes prelabeled with [3H]arachidonic acid and stimulated with ionophore A23187 formed 5-hydroxy-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE), as well as several dihydroxy fatty acids, including 5(S),12(R)-dihydroxy-6,8,10-(cis/trans/trans)-14-(cis)-eicosatetraenoic acid. ETYA (40 microM) did not inhibit, but, rather, increased the incorporation of 3H label into 5-HETE. In contrast, ETYA markedly inhibited the formation of radiolabeled dihydroxy acid metabolites by the A23187-stimulated cells. Assay of products from polymorphonuclear leukocytes incubated with exogenous arachidonic acid plus A23187, by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography combined with ultraviolet absorption, showed a concentration-dependent inhibition of the formation of dihydroxy acid metabolite by ETYA (1-50 microM) and an increase in 5-HETE levels (maximum of 2- to 3-fold). The latter finding was verified by stable isotope dilution assay with deuterated 5-HETE as the internal standard. Another lipoxygenase inhibitor, nordihydroguaiaretic acid, potently inhibited the formation of both 5-HETE and dihydroxy acids, with an IC50 of 2 microM. The data suggest that ETYA can inhibit the enzymatic step whereby 5-hydroperoxy-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid is converted to leukotriene A4 in guinea pig polymorphonuclear leukocytes.  相似文献

Peritoneal macrophages (PM), obtained from 39 healthy women with normal laparoscopy findings, were stimulated with the ionophore A23187 or/and arachidonic acid (AA) both in adherence and in suspension. AA lipoxygenase metabolites were determined by reversed-phase HPLC. The major metabolites identified were 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE), leukotriene (LT)B4 and LTC4. The 20-hydroxy-LTB4, 20-carboxy-LTB4, and 15-HETE were not detected. Incubations of adherent PM with 2 microM A23187 induced the formation of LTB4, 110 +/- 19 pmol/10(6) cells, 5-HETE, 264 +/- 53 pmol/10(6) cells and LTC4, 192 +/- 37 pmol/10(6) cells. When incubated with 30 microM exogenous AA, adherent PM released similar amounts of 5-HETE (217 +/- 67 pmol/10(6) cells), but sevenfold less LTC4 (27 +/- 12 pmol/10(6) cells) (p less than 0.01). In these conditions LTB4 was not detectable. These results indicate that efficient LT synthesis in PM requires activation of the 5-lipoxygenase/LTA4 synthase, as demonstrated previously for blood phagocytes. When stimulated with ionophore, suspensions of Ficoll-Paque-purified PM produced the same lipoxygenase metabolites. The kinetics of accumulation of the 5-lipoxygenase/LTA4 synthase products in A23187-stimulated adherent cells varied for the various metabolites. LTB4 reached a plateau by 5 min, whereas LTC4 levels increased up to 60 min, the longest incubation time studied. Levels of 5-HETE were maximal at 5 min, and then slowly decreased with time. Thus, normal PM, in suspension or adherence, have the capacity to produce significant amounts of 5-HETE, LTB4, and LTC4. The profile of lipoxygenase products formed by the PM and the reactivity of this cell to AA and ionophore A23187 are similar to those of the human blood monocyte, but different from those of the human alveolar macrophage.  相似文献

The products derived from the metabolism of 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) by mouse peritoneal macrophages were characterized by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and GC-mass spectrometry. HPLC analysis demonstrated two predominant polar products and several minor ones. The proportion and amounts of these products were dependent on the concentration of 12-HETE, the number of macrophages incubated with the monohydroxy fatty acid, and the time of incubation. The products identified by GC-mass spectrometry suggested that 12-HETE had undergone beta-oxidation. The intermediates identified were: 3,12-dihydroxy-5,8,10,14, 20:4; 10-hydroxy-3,6,8,12, 18:4; 3,10-dihydroxy-6,8,12, 18:3; 8-hydroxy-4,6,10, 16:3; 6-hydroxy-4,8, 14:2; and 4-hydroxy, 12:1. The major products, as identified by HPLC and GC-mass spectrometry, were 8-hydroxy-4,6,10, 16:3 and 4-hydroxy, 12:1. A minor product, 10-hydroxy-6,8,12, 18:3 was postulated to arise from either the isomerization and reduction of 10-hydroxy-3,6,8,12, 18:4 or from chain elongation of 8-hydroxy-4,6,10, 16:3. Inhibiting cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase activities by ibuprofen and nordihydroguaiaretic acid, respectively, did not inhibit the formation of these products. 82% to 98% of 12-HETE was converted and released into the medium as products of beta-oxidation. The remainder was taken up into cellular lipids. beta-Oxidation of 12-HETE was decreased by only 12 and 21% after inhibiting mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation by 89 and 93% by 5 and 100 microM concentrations of the mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation inhibitor, methyl palmoxirate, respectively. It is thus postulated that the beta-oxidation of 12-HETE by mouse peritoneal macrophages occurs in peroxisomes.  相似文献

Stimulation of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) may result in the metabolism of phospholipids other than phosphoinositides to generate second-messenger intermediary metabolites. We investigated agonist-induced breakdown of 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-GPC), which constitutes almost half the diradyl-GPC fraction in human PMN (Mueller, H. W., O'Flaherty, J. T., Green, D. G., Samuel, M. P., and Wykle, R. L. (1984) J. Lipid Res. 25: 383-388), in cells prelabeled with 1-O-[3H] alkyl-2-acyl-GPC. We also utilized normal-phase high pressure liquid chromatography to quantitate the accumulation of diradylglycerols (1-O-alkyl-2-acylglycerols and diacylglycerols) in stimulated PMN. Phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol-, calcium ionophore A23187-, and f-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) stimulation of PMN resulted in a time- and concentration-dependent hydrolysis of 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acyl-GPC and the formation of 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acyl-phosphatidic acid (PA) and 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acylglycerol. In all cases formation of 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acyl-PA preceded that of 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acylglycerol. The times between addition of stimulus and appearance of 1-O-[3H] alkyl-2-acylglycerol varied for PMA (40 s at 1.6 microM), A23187 (5 min at 5 microM), and fMLP (30 sec at 1 microM). Preincubation of cells with 1 microgram/ml pertussis toxin (PT) inhibited the breakdown of 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acyl-GPC in cells stimulated with 1 microM fMLP, indicating a role for a PT-sensitive G protein with this stimulus. Quantitation of diglycerides as diradylglycerobenzoates in PMN stimulated with PMA (10 min), A23187 (10 min), or fMLP demonstrated marked accumulation of both 1-O-alkyl-2-acylglycerols and diacylglycerols. The highest increases over controls were observed for fMLP (33-fold for 1-O-alkyl-2-acylglycerols and 17-fold for diacylglycerols). In stimulated PMN prelabeled with 1-O-[3H]hexadecyl-2-acyl-GPC and 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-[32P]phosphocholine, the ratio of 3H to 32P in 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-PA compared to 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-GPC suggested the involvement of a phospholipase D in the hydrolysis of 1-O-[3H]-alkyl-2-acyl-GPC. Thus, stimulation of human PMN results in the hydrolysis of 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acyl-GPC to yield 1-O-[3H] alkyl-2-acyl-PA and 1-O-[3H]alkyl-2-acylglycerol possibly initiated by activation of a phospholipase D.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The mechanisms of stimulation of the inactive 5-lipoxygenase in mast/basophil PT-18 cells by microM 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE) was investigated. Treatment of PT-18 cells with pM 15-[3H]HETE at 4 degrees for 3 h resulted in the cell association of 10% of the ligand: two-thirds was incorporated into cellular lipids and a third was bound to specific 15-HETE cellular binding sites. Binding data analysis indicated a single class of 15-HETE binding sites with a Kd of 162 nM and a Bmax of 7.1 x 10(5) sites/cell. Unlabeled 15-HETE, 12-HETE, and 5,15-diHETE inhibited the binding of 15-[3H]HETE to cells, whereas LTB4 and PGF2 alpha were relatively ineffective. 2.4 microM 15-HETE (unlabeled) prevented 50% 15-[3H]HETE incorporation. Examination of the effects of 15-HETE methyl ester, 12-HETE, 5,15-diHETE, and pertussis toxin on both the 15-HETE-induced 5-lipoxygenase activation and 15-HETE cell association processes indicated a preponderant correlation of this activation process with specific 15-HETE binding rather than 15-HETE incorporation into phospholipids. In addition, 5,15-diHETE itself stimulated the inactive 5-lipoxygenase and eight times more [3H]diHETE was bound to cells than became incorporated into cellular lipids. The results support the involvement of low affinity 15-HETE receptors, rather than 15-HETE incorporation into cellular lipids, in the 15-HETE-induced stimulation of the 5-lipoxygenase in PT-18 cells.  相似文献

Both 1,2-diacyl- and 1-O-alkyl-2-acylglycerols are formed during stimulation of human neutrophils (PMN), and both can prime respiratory burst responses for stimulation by the chemotactic peptide, N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP); however, mechanisms of priming are unknown. Arachidonic acid (AA) release through phospholipase A2 activation and metabolism by 5-lipoxygenase are important activities of PMN during inflammation and could be involved in the process of primed stimulation. Therefore, we have examined the ability of diacyl- and alkylacylglycerols to act as priming agents for AA release and metabolism in human neutrophils. After prelabeling PMN phospholipids with [3H]AA, priming was tested by incubating human PMN with the diacylglycerol, 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG), or its alkylacyl analog, 1-O-delta 9-octadecenyl-2-acetylglycerol (EAG) before stimulating with fMLP. fMLP (1 microM), OAG (20 microM), or EAG (20 microM) individually caused little or no release of labeled AA. However, after priming PMN with the same concentrations of either OAG or EAG, stimulation with 1 microM fMLP caused rapid (peak after 1 min) release of 6-8% of [3H]AA from cellular phospholipids; total release was similar with either diglyceride. Priming cells with OAG also enhanced conversion of released AA to leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) upon subsequent fMLP stimulation, but AA metabolites were not increased in EAG-primed PMN. If fMLP was replaced with the calcium ionophore A23187 (which directly causes release of AA and production of LTB4 and 5-HETE), priming by both diglycerides again enhanced release of [3H]AA, but only OAG priming increased lipoxygenase activity. Indeed, EAG pretreatment markedly reduced LTB4 and 5-HETE production. Thus, both diglycerides prime release of AA from membrane phospholipids but have opposite actions on the subsequent metabolism of AA.  相似文献

Receptor-mediated cyclic GMP formation in N1E-115 murine neuroblastoma cells appears to involve oxidative metabolism of arachidonic acid. Evidence in support of this includes the blockade of this response by lipoxygenase inhibitors, e.g., eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA) or other metabolic perturbants, e.g., methylene blue. It was recently discovered that the lipoxygenase products 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic (15-HETE) acid and 12-HETE, like ETYA, were inhibitors of M1 muscarinic receptor-mediated cyclic GMP formation. In the present report, the effects of monoHETEs are explored in more detail, particularly with regard to the function of the muscarinic receptor. Like 12-HETE and 15-HETE (IC50 = 13 and 11 microM, respectively), 5-HETE inhibited the cyclic GMP response to the muscarinic receptor (IC50 = 10 microM). All three of these monoHETEs were shown also to be inhibitors of the cyclic GMP responses to receptors stimulated by carbachol, histamine, thrombin, neurotensin, and bradykinin. 15-HETE was shown to inhibit the muscarinic receptor-mediated response in a complex manner (apparent noncompetitive and uncompetitive components; IC50 = 18 and 2 microM, respectively). 15-HETE did not inhibit either the M1 muscarinic receptor-stimulated release of [3H]inositol phosphates from cellular phospholipids or the M2 muscarinic receptor-mediated inhibition of hormone (prostaglandin E1)-induced AMP formation. It seemed possible that the monoHETEs could enter into biochemical pathways for arachidonate in N1E-115 cells. [3H]Arachidonate and the three [3H]-monoHETEs all rapidly labeled the membrane lipids of intact N1E-115 cells, with each [3H]eicosanoid producing a unique labeling profile. [3H]15-HETE labeling was noteworthy in that 85% of the label found in the phospholipids was in phosphatidylinositol (PI;t1/2 to steady state = 3 min). Exogenous 15-HETE inhibited the labeling of PI by [3H]arachidonate (IC50 = 28 microM) and elevated unesterified [3H]arachidonate levels. Thus, the mechanism of blockade of receptor-mediated cyclic GMP responses by monoHETEs is likely to be more complex than the simple inhibition of cytosolic mechanisms, e.g., generation of a putative second messenger by lipoxygenase, and may involve also alterations of membrane function accompanying the redistributions of esterified arachidonate.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to delineate the mode of action of 20-hydroxy-eicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) in airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells. ASM metabolizes arachidonic acid by various enzymatic pathways, including the cytochrome P-450 (CYP-450) omega-hydroxylase, which leads to the production of 20-HETE, a bronchoconstrictive eicosanoid. The present study demonstrated that 20-HETE induced concentration-dependent tonic responses in ASM, whereas transient responses were recorded in Ca2+-free solution, suggesting an intracellular Ca2+ release process. 20-HETE inotropic responses were abolished by 36 microM 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate or 1 microM thapsigargin but were insensitive to 10 microM ryanodine, indicating that inositol triphosphate receptors likely control the release of intracellular Ca2+. Sustained tension, which required Ca2+ entry, was partially blocked by 1 microM nifedipine (an L-type) and 100 microM Gd3+ (a nonselective cationic channel blocker). Moreover, in the absence of selective 20-HETE receptor antagonists, 20-HETE tonic responses were inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner (0.1-10 microM) by capsazepine, a well-characterized vanilloid receptor antagonist. Capsazepine was also observed to reverse cumulative responses to 20-HETE and capsaicin, a TRPV1 agonist. In addition, capsazepine pretreatment largely modified the sustained inotropic responses to 20-HETE, suggesting that 20-HETE cross-reacted with TRPV1 receptors with a low affinity (microM) or that its specific receptor was inhibited by the vanilloid antagonist. Data obtained using RHC-80267, ONO-RS-082, and eicosatetraynoic acid, respective inhibitors of diacylglycerol-lipase, phospholipase A2, and CYP-450 omega-hydroxylase, reveal that intracellular arachidonic acid production and its 20-HETE metabolite may be responsible for the activation of nonselective cationic channels and tonic responses.  相似文献

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) omega-oxidases convert arachidonic acid (AA) to 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), a lipid mediator that modulates vascular tone. We observed that a microsomal preparation containing recombinant human CYP4F3B, which converts AA to 20-HETE, converted eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) to 20-OH-EPA. Likewise, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) was converted to 22-OH-DHA, indicating that human CYP4F3B also can oxidize 22-carbon omega-3 fatty acids. Consistent with these findings, addition of 0.5-5 microM EPA, DHA or omega-3 docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) to incubations containing 0.5 microM [3H]AA inhibited [3H]20-HETE production by 15-65%. [3H]20-OH-EPA was rapidly taken up by COS-7 cells, and almost all of the incorporated radioactivity remained as unmodified 20-OH-EPA. The 20-OH-EPA stimulated luciferase activity in COS-7 cells that express peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha, indicating that this EPA metabolite may function as a lipid mediator. These findings suggest that some functional effects of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation may be due to inhibition of 20-HETE formation or the conversion of EPA to the corresponding omega-oxidized product.  相似文献

20-carboxy-arachidonic acid (20-COOH-AA) is a metabolite of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), an eicosanoid produced from arachidonic acid by cytochrome P450 (CYP) omega-oxidases. Alcohol dehydrogenases convert 20-HETE to 20-COOH-AA, and we now find that a microsomal preparation containing recombinant human CYP4F3B converts arachidonic acid to 20-HETE and 20-COOH-AA. Studies with transfected COS-7 cell expression systems indicate that 20-COOH-AA activates peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor (PPAR) alpha and PPARgamma. 20-COOH-AA was twice as potent as either 20-HETE or ciglitazone in stimulating PPARgamma-mediated luciferase expression. While 20-COOH-AA also was more potent than 20-HETE in increasing PPARalpha-mediated luciferase expression, the increase was only half as much as that produced by Wy-14643. 20-COOH-AA did not increase PPARalpha or PPARgamma expression in the transfected cells. Radiolabeled 20-COOH-AA was detected intracellularly when the COS-7 cells were incubated with either [3H]20-COOH-AA or [3H]20-HETE, and binding studies indicated that [3H]20-COOH-AA bound to the isolated ligand binding domains of PPARalpha (Kd=0.87+/-0.12 microM) and PPARgamma (Kd=1.7+/-0.5 microM). These findings suggest that 20-COOH-AA, a relatively stable metabolite of 20-HETE, might function as an endogenous dual activator of PPARalpha and PPARgamma.  相似文献

Neutrophils which ingest particles (serum-treated zymosan, monosodium urate crystals) or are exposed to calcium ionophore A23187 generate leukotriene B4 (LTB4). Earlier work has shown that cells exposed to colchicine before exposure to monosodium urate crystals produce less LTB4; the formation of 5-HETE is unaffected. To determine whether inhibition by colchicine of LTB4 generation was stimulus-specific and was mediated by microtubule integrity, the effects of colchicine (10 microM, 60 min) on the release of lipoxygenase products from neutrophils exposed to ionophore A23187 (10 microM, 5 min) were examined. In the presence of exogenous arachidonic acid (100 microM, 15 min), colchicine decreased LTB4 to 48% +/- 11.7 of control and 5-HETE to 60.5% +/- 5.7 of control (mean +/- SEM); 15-HETE was also decreased to 61% +/- 10.3 of control. In the absence of exogenous arachidonate, LTB4 was decreased to 22.2% +/- 11.7 of control and 5-HETE to 13% +/- 4.8 of control. Lumicolchicine did not significantly affect formation of 5-HETE or LTB4. However, vinblastine sulfate (20 microM, 60 min), another microtubule-disruptive agent, decreased the formation of both 5-lipoxygenase products. The effects of colchicine and vinblastine were not due to impairment of cell viability because the release of cytoplasmic lactic dehydrogenase was unaffected. Ultrastructural analysis of centriolar microtubules showed that decrements in microtubule numbers of colchicine- and vinblastine-treated cells paralleled decrements in 5-lipoxygenase products. These pharmacologic manipulations suggested that functional microtubules might be required for optimal lipoxygenase activity. Consequently, we prepared neutrophil-derived cytoplasts, devoid of an intact microtubule system. No significant decreases in the 5- or 15-lipoxygenase products were found when cytoplasts were exposed to colchicine in the presence of exogenous arachidonate and A23187. The data show that colchicine inhibits the formation of lipoxygenase products from neutrophils stimulated with A23187, most likely via its effect on microtubules, the integrity of which appears necessary for full expression of 5- and 15-lipoxygenases.  相似文献

20-Carboxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-COOH-AA) is a bioactive metabolite of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), an eicosanoid that produces vasoconstriction in the cerebral circulation. We found that smooth muscle (MSMC) and endothelial (MEC) cultures obtained from mouse brain microvessels convert [3H]20-HETE to 20-COOH-AA, indicating that the cerebral vasculature can produce this metabolite. The [3H]20-COOH-AA accumulated primarily in the culture medium, together with additional radiolabeled metabolites identified as the chain-shortened dicarboxylic acids 18-COOH-18:4, 18-COOH-18:3, and 16-COOH-16:3. N-Heptylformamide, a potent inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), decreased the conversion of [3H]20-HETE to 20-COOH-AA by the MSMC and MEC and also by isolated mouse brain microvessels. Purified mouse and human ADH4, human ADH3, and horse liver ADH1 efficiently oxidized 20-HETE, and ADH4 and ADH3 were detected in MSMC and MEC by Western blotting. N-Heptylformamide inhibited the oxidation of 20-HETE by mouse and human ADH4 but not by ADH3. These results demonstrated that cerebral microvessels convert 20-HETE to 20-COOH-AA and that ADH catalyzes the reaction. Although ADH4 and ADH3 are expressed in MSMC and MEC, the inhibition produced by N-heptylformamide suggests that ADH4 is primarily responsible for 20-COOH-AA formation in the cerebral microvasculature.  相似文献

We have investigated the role of endothelial cells in the metabolism of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), a vasoactive mediator synthesized from arachidonic acid by cytochrome P450 omega-oxidases. Porcine coronary artery endothelial cells (PCEC) incorporated 20-[(3)H]HETE primarily into the sn-2 position of phospholipids through a coenzyme A-dependent process. The incorporation was reduced by equimolar amounts of arachidonic, eicosapentaenoic or 8,9-epoxyeicosatrienoic acids, but some uptake persisted even when a 10-fold excess of arachidonic acid was available. The retention of 20-[(3)H]HETE increased substantially when methyl arachidonoyl fluorophosphonate, but not bromoenol lactone, was added, suggesting that a Ca(2+)-dependent cytosolic phospholipase A(2) released the 20-HETE contained in PCEC phospholipids. Addition of calcium ionophore A23187 produced a rapid release of 20-[(3)H]HETE from the PCEC, a finding that also is consistent with a Ca(2+)-dependent mobilization process. PCEC also converted 20-[(3)H]HETE to 20-carboxy-arachidonic acid (20-COOH-AA) and 18-, 16-, and 14-carbon beta-oxidation products. 20-COOH-AA produced vasodilation in porcine coronary arterioles, but 20-HETE was inactive. These results suggest that the incorporation of 20-HETE and its subsequent conversion to 20-COOH-AA in the endothelium may be important in modulating coronary vascular function.  相似文献

Glucose (16.7 mM)-induced insulin secretion from isolated pancreatic islets of rats was inhibited by nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), 1-phenyl-3-pyrazolidinone (phenidone), 3-amino-1-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2-pyrazoline (BW755C), 2,3,5-trimethyl-6-(12-hydroxy-5,10-dodecadiynyl)-1,4-benzoquinone (AA861), and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT). Indomethacin and aspirin, however, failed to inhibit the glucose-induced insulin secretion but rather tended to enhance it. The glucose-induced insulin secretion was inhibited by 15-hydroxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE) (50 microM), 15-hydroperoxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-HPETE) (100 microM), and 12-hydroxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) (100 microM), but not by 5-hydroxy-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) (100 microM). Exogenous 5-HETE (10 microM) induced significant insulin secretion in a low glucose (3.3 mM) medium. Racemic 5-HETE also showed insulinotropic effect in a concentration-dependent manner with the concentrations 20 microM or above, whereas 12-HETE, 15-HETE, 15-HPETE, 5,12-dihydroxy-6,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, 5-hydroxy-6-glutathionyl-7,9,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, 5-hydroxy-6-cysteinylglycinyl-7,9,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, prostaglandin E2, and prostaglandin F2 alpha failed to induce insulin secretion. Although significant insulin release was observed with arachidonic acid (greater than or equal to 100 microM), reduce cell viability was evident at 200 microM. When the 10,000 X g supernatant of isolated pancreatic islet homogenate was incubated with [3H]arachidonic acid at 37 degrees C in the presence of GSH and Ca2+, and the labeled metabolites then extracted with ethyl acetate and subjected to reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography, several radioactive peaks, coeluted with authentic 15-, 12-, and 5-HETE, were observed. The radioactive peaks were completely suppressed by the addition of either NDGA, BW755C, or phenidone into the medium. The results support our contention i.e. the involvement of lipoxygenase product(s) in the secretory mechanism of insulin, and further suggest that 5-lipoxygenase system may play a role.  相似文献

When human neutrophils, previously labeled in their phospholipids with [14C]arachidonate, were stimulated with the Ca2+-ionophore, A23187, plus Ca2+ in the presence of [3H]acetate, these cells released [14C]arachidonate from membrane phospholipids, produced 5-hydroxy-6,8,11,14-[14C]eicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) and 14C-labeled 5S,12R-dihydroxy-6-cis,8,10-trans, 14-cis-eicosatetraenoic acid ([14C]leukotriene B4), and incorporated [3H]acetate into platelet-activating factor (PAF, 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine). Ionophore A23187-induced formation of these radiolabeled products was greatly augmented by submicromolar concentrations of exogenous 5-hydroperoxy-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-HPETE), 5-HETE, and leukotriene B4. In the absence of ionophore A23187, these arachidonic acid metabolites were virtually ineffective. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) and several other lipoxygenase/cyclooxygenase inhibitors (butylated hydroxyanisole, 3-amino-1-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2-pyrazoline and 1-phenyl-2-pyrazolidinone) caused parallel inhibition of [14C]arachidonate release and [3H]PAF formation in a dose-dependent manner. Specific cyclooxygenase inhibitors, such as indomethacin and naproxen, did not inhibit but rather slightly augmented the formation of these products. Furthermore, addition of 5-HPETE, 5-HETE, or leukotriene B4 (but not 8-HETE or 15-HETE) to neutrophils caused substantial relief of NDGA inhibition of [3H]PAF formation and [14C]arachidonate release. As opposed to [3H]acetate incorporation into PAF, [3H]lyso-PAF incorporation into PAF by activated neutrophils was little affected by NDGA. In addition, NDGA had no effect on lyso-PAF:acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase as measured in neutrophil homogenate preparations. It is concluded that in activated human neutrophils 5-lipoxygenase products can modulate PAF formation by enhancing the expression of phospholipase A2.  相似文献

The effects of various lipoxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid (AA) were investigated on the growth of freshly isolated human bone marrow mononuclear cells and marrow stromal cell cultures. LTB4, LXA4, LXB4, 12-HETE and 15-HETE (1 microM) decreased [3H]-thymidine incorporation on marrow stromal cell cultures without affecting cell number. Only 12-HETE showed a dose-response effect on [3H]-thymidine incorporation. While LTB4 (1 microM) decreased thymidine incorporation on marrow mononuclear cells, LTC4, LXA4, LXB4, 12-HETE and 15-HETE had no effect. The lipoxygenase inhibitor NDGA had no effect on both cell types suggesting no role of endogenous lipoxygenase metabolites on cell growth. These results suggest no important role of lipoxygenase metabolites of AA on the proliferation of human marrow mononuclear cells and marrow stromal cell cultures.  相似文献

In the present study, we show that the eicosanoid compound, 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), an important arachidonic acid metabolite, activates mouse TRPC6 in a stable, overexpressing HEK293 cell line, Hek-t6.11. Application of 20-HETE rapidly induced an inward, non-selective current in whole-cell recordings, which was inhibited by N-methyl-d-glucamine, 1.8 mm Ca2+, and 100 microM Gd3+ but remained unaffected by flufenamate and indomethacin. The current-voltage relationship obtained at low concentrations of 20-HETE (1-10 microM) demonstrated slight inward rectification, whereas the highest concentration of 20-HETE tested (30 microM) showed outward rectification, as shown previously for these channels using 100 microM 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol. Dose-response curves indicate that 20-HETE activated TRPC6 channels with an EC50 = 0.8 microM. Single channel analysis using inside-out patches revealed that 20-HETE increased open probability of mouse TRPC6 channels approximately 3-fold, and this was in a membrane-delimited fashion. Interestingly, 20-HETE did not provoke changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations. Thus, we have identified an arachidonic acid metabolite, 20-HETE, as a novel activator for a TRP family member, TRPC6.  相似文献
