5-Hydroxyeicosanoids selectively stimulate the human neutrophil 15- lipoxygenase to use endogenous substrate

چکیده
When human neutrophils, prelabeled with [3H]arachidonic acid, were incubated with 5S,15S-dihydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5,15-diHETE), a dose-dependent increase in the 15-lipoxygenase product [3H]-15-HETE was observed relative to untreated cells. Typically, a fivefold increase in [3H]-15-HETE formation was obtained upon exposure of these cells to 3 muM 5,15-diHETE. There was no appreciable enhancement of the 5-lipoxygenase metabolite [3H]-5-HETE. Product identities were confirmed by comparing retention times on straight- and reversed-phase HPLC with authentic standards, and RIA. Other 5-hydroxyeicosanoids, such as 5-HETE, 5-HETE methyl ester, and leukotriene B4(5S,12R-diHETE), were equally effective in stimulating the formation of [3H]-15-HETE, but exogenously added lipoxin A4, lipoxin B4, 15-HETE, and 12-HETE were much less potent, whereas stearic acid was ineffective. The diHETEs also showed a greater selectivity in activating the 15-lipoxygenase relative to the 5-lipoxygenase. A likely source of substrate for the 15- and 5-lipoxygenases is a pool of cell-associated but noncovalently bound arachidonic acid. In [3H]arachidonic acid-prelabeled neutrophils, the amount of free [3H]arachidonic acid ranged between 50 and 700 fmol/10(7) cells, whereas unlabeled neutrophils contained 100-2,200 pmol/10(7) cells of nonesterified arachidonic acid. The exogenously added hydroxyeicosanoids induce a 0.5-3% conversion of this substrate pool to product. These findings indicate that the 15-lipoxygenase in human neutrophils is a cryptic enzyme that needs to be stimulated in order to metabolize endogenous substrate. It is possible that 5-hydroxyeicosanoids may mimic an as yet unidentified physiological activator of the 15-lipoxygenase.

Activation of a 15-lipoxygenase/leukotriene pathway in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes by the anti-inflammatory agent ibuprofen.
Human peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) metabolized [14C]arachidonic acid predominantly by lipoxygenase pathways. The major products were 5-hydroxy-6,8,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) and 15-HETE. These and other lipoxygenase products, including their derived leukotrienes, have been implicated as mediators of inflammatory and allergic reactions. In human platelets, the n...

5-Lipoxygenase products, such as leukotrienes, are important stimuli for leukocyte-mediated tissue injury in acute inflammation. 15-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE) is an eicosanoid generated by a variety of cell types via the actions of 15-lipoxygenases and, in addition, cyclooxygenases and epoxygenases. 15-HETE levels are frequently elevated at sites of inflammation, and extracellular 1...

Polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) activation is pivotal in acute inflammation and injury from reperfusion. To elucidate components controlling PMNs in vivo, we prepared novel transgenic mice with the human leukotriene (LT) B4 receptor (BLTR) for functional characterization. Overexpression of BLTR in leukocytes dramatically increased PMN trafficking to skin microabscesses and lungs after ischem...
