Biochem/physiol Actions

Metabolite of arachidonic acid via the 15-lipoxygenase pathway that may be involved in pulmonary anti-inflammatory responses through the inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase. 15(S)-HETE suppresses the incorporation of thymidine and biosynthesis of prostaglandin E2 in tumor cell cultures. Treatment of colon cancer cells with 15(S)-HETE inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis, which was preceded by an increase in TGF-beta-inducible early gene (TIEG) and a decrease in Bcl-2.

15(S)-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15[S]-HETE) is a 15-lipoxygenase (15-LO) metabolite that may play an important role in different pulmonary diseases. 15-HETE is synthesized by different epithelial cells and may be subsequently incorporated into cellular phospholipids. We studied the role of interleukin-4 (IL-4)

We evaluated the levels of 15(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid [15(S)-HETE] and the expression of 15-lipoxygenase (15-LO) mRNA in induced sputum obtained from 10 control and 15 chronic bronchitis subjects. 15(S)-HETE was evaluated by reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography separation followed by specific

The polarization of macrophages is critical to inflammation and tissue repair, with unbalanced macrophage polarization associated with critical dysfunctions of the immune system. Cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) is a hydroxylase mainly controlled by the inflammation-limiting aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), which

We have found that 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE) induced by hypoxia was an important mediator in the regulation of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension, including the pulmonary vasoconstriction and remodeling. However, the underlying mechanisms of the remodeling induced by 15-HETE are poorly understood.
