Regulation of arachidonic acid metabolites in macrophages
The lipids of mouse peritoneal macrophages contain high levels (25 mole percent) of esterified arachidonic acid (20:4). Following in vitro exposure to unopsonized zymosan, these cells synthesize and release oxygenated products of 20:4. Maximal levels of zymosan ingestion promote the release of 40-50% of the 20:4 content of cultures without loss of viabilitiy. Release of radiolabel from macropha...
متن کاملLipoxygenase metabolites of arachidonic acid modulate hematopoiesis.
Lipoxygenase (LPO) metabolites of arachidonic acid participate in the activation and/or proliferation of a variety of cell types. In this study, we examined the role of LPO metabolites in controlling myelopoiesis and erythropoiesis in vitro. Monocyte depleted cells (MDC) prepared from human whole blood or whole mononuclear cells from human bone marrow were cultured in methylcellulose in the pre...
متن کاملArachidonic acid metabolites regulate interleukin-1 production.
We have investigated the role of arachidonic acid metabolites in the regulation of interleukin-1 production by murine peritoneal macrophages. Indomethacin a potent inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis caused a dose-dependent augmentation of lipopolysaccharide induced interleukin production (up to 7-fold at 5 microM). In contrast, lipoxygenase inhibitors, nordihydroguarietic acid and nafazatrom ...
متن کاملMolecular evolution of enzymes involved in the arachidonic acid cascade
The metabolic pathway called the arachidonic acid cascade produces a wide range of eicosanoids, such as prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes with potent biological activities. Recombinant DNA techniques have made it possible to determine the nucleotide sequences of cDNAs and/or genomic structures for the enzymes involved in the pathway. Sequence comparison analyses of the accumulated s...
