Hypercholesterolemia enhances 15-lipoxygenase-mediated vasorelaxation and acetylcholine-induced hypotension.
OBJECTIVE Arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites from 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LO-1), trihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (THETA), and hydroxyepoxyeicosatrienoic acid (HEETA) relax arteries. We studied 15-LO-1 expression, THETA and HEETA synthesis, and their effect on arterial relaxations and blood pressure in hypercholesterolemic nonatherosclerotic rabbits. METHODS AND RESULTS Immunoblots, RTPCR analysis,...
متن کاملEndothelial 15-lipoxygenase-1 overexpression increases acetylcholine-induced hypotension and vasorelaxation in rabbits.
Arachidonic acid is metabolized by the 15-lipoxygenase-1 pathway to the vasodilatory eicosanoids hydroxy-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid and trihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid. We determined the in vitro and in vivo effects of the 15-lipoxygenase-1 metabolites in rabbits infected with adenovirus containing cDNA for human 15-lipoxygenase-1 (Ad-15-LO-1). Forty hours after intravenous adenoviral injection, 15...
متن کاملReticulocyte 15-lipoxygenase-I is important in acetylcholine-induced endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in rabbit aorta.
OBJECTIVE Aortic 15-lipoxygenase (15-LO) metabolizes arachidonic acid (AA) to 15-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid, which is then converted to the vasodilators 15-hydroxy-11,12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid and 11,12,15-trihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid. These metabolites contribute to endothelium-dependent relaxations of rabbit aorta to AA and acetylcholine. We investigated the identity of rabbit aortic...
متن کاملChronic hypoxia enhances 15-lipoxygenase-mediated vasorelaxation in rabbit arteries.
15-Lipoxygenase (15-LO-1) metabolizes arachidonic acid (AA) to 11,12,15-trihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids (THETAs) and 15-hydroxy-11,12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (HEETA) that dilate rabbit arteries. Increased endothelial 15-LO-1 expression enhances arterial relaxations to agonists. We tested the effect of hypoxia on 15-LO-1 expression, THETA and HEETA synthesis, and relaxations in rabbit arteries....
متن کامل15-Lipoxygenase metabolites contribute to age-related reduction in acetylcholine-induced hypotension in rabbits.
Arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites from the 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LO-1) pathway, trihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids (THETAs) and hydroxy-epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (HEETAs), are endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factors (EDHFs) and relax rabbit arteries. Rabbit vascular 15-LO-1 expression, THETA and HEETA synthesis, and nitric oxide and prostaglandin-independent relaxations to acetylcholine (ACh) a...
