Abstract: | The following labeled compounds were isolated and identified after incubation of 1-14C]arachidonic acid with guinea pig lung homogenates: 12-hydroxy-5,8,10-heptadecatrienoic acid (HHT), the hemiacetal derivative of 8-(1-hydroxy-3-oxopropyl)-9,12-dihydroxy-5,10-heptadecadienoic acid (PHD), 12-hydroxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (HETE), PGE2, PGF2α, 11-hydroxy-5,8,12,14-eicosatetraenoic acid, and 15-hydroxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid (in order of decreasing yield). Perfused guinea pig lungs released PHD (654–2304 ng), HHT (192–387 ng), HETE (66–111 ng), PGE2 (15–93 ng), and PGF2α (93–171 ng) following injection of 30 μg of arachidonic acid. Thus guinea pig lung homogenates as well as intact guinea pig lung converted added arachidonic acid predominantly into PHD and HHT, metabolites of the prostaglandin endoperoxide PGG2, and to a lesser extent into the classical prostaglandins PGE2 and PGF2α. |
