Therefore, their quantitative profiling has gained a lot of 17 attention during the last years notably in the active field of health biomarker discovery. Oxylipins 18 include hundreds of structurally and stereochemically distinct lipid species which today are most 19 commonly analyzed by (ultra) high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry based 20 ((U)HPLC-MS) methods. To maximize the utility of oxylipin profiling in clinical research, it is crucial to 21 understand and assess the factors contributing to the analytical and biological variability of oxylipin 22 profiles in humans. In this review, these factors and their impacts are summarized and discussed, 23 providing a framework for recommendations expected to enhance the interlaboratory comparability 24 and biological interpretation of oxylipin profiling in clinical research. 25 26 MANUSCRIPT 27 28 ACCEPTED 2 ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 29 1. Introduction. 30 Eicosanoids and other oxylipins represent a superfamily of signalling lipids generated from 31 arachidonic acid (AA) and related polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) through a complex network of 32 biochemical reactions involving over 50 unique and cell-specific enzymes (1). To regulate a wide array 33 of biological processes, PUFAs are converted to oxylipins via four maJor pathways (Figure 1): the 34 cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway producing prostanoids such as prostaglandins (PG) and 35 thromboxanes (Tx); the lipoxygenase (LOX) pathway producing hydroperoxy-PUFAs which are 36 rearranged into monohydroxy-PUFAs or further converted by LOX catalyzed reactions to leukotrienes 37 (LT) and numerous dihydroxy- and trihydroxy-PUFAs, including specialized pro-resolving mediators 38 (e.g. lipoxins, resolvins, protectins); the cytochrome P450 pathway (CYP), primarily producing ω-/ω-1 39 hydroxy- and epoxy-PUFAs, with the epoxides being further transformed to vicinal (i.e. adJacent or 40 1,2-)dihydroxy-PUFAs; and the nonenzymatic pathway producing various hydro(peroxy) PUFAs, 41 epoxy-PUFAs (2) as well as iso- and neuroprostanes (3, 4). In response to external stimuli 42 (e.g. bradykinin, thrombin, inflammatory insult), PUFAsMANUSCRIPT (5) and oxylipins (6) are released from 43 membrane phospholipids by phospholipases including phospholipase A2 (PLA2). Of note, hundreds 44 of structurally and strereochemically distinct oxylipins can be produced from AA and other PUFAs. 45 For instance, depending on the stimuli and the cell type, AA and EPA can be converted into PGE 2 and 46 PGE 3 respectiveley through the COX pathway or structurally distinct oxylipins (e.g. LTB 4 and LTB 5) via 47 the 5-LOX pathway (Figure 1 ). 48 The structural specificity of oxylipins leads to specificity in their biological activities, many of 49 which are still beingACCEPTED elucidated. Important to clinical research, they are notably involved in the 50 regulation of inflammation, thrombosis, endothelial function, vascular tone and insulin secretion, 51 each of these systems being either stimulated or inhibited by the different oxylipin types as 52 simplified in Figure 2 . Many oxylipins exert their biological effects by binding to cognate receptors, 53 which are members of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). However, for several oxylipins such as 3 ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 54 epoxy-PUFAs, the receptors characterized to date cannot explain all of the biological effects elicited 55 by these compounds (7). Other known routes of oxylipin elicited effects include directly influencing 56 the open-state probability of membrane ion channels including the calcium sensitive potassium 57 channels (K Ca ) and transient receptor potential channels (TRPs) (8-10), activation of intracellular 58 transcription factors such as PPARs (11, 12), and interference with intracellular signalling pathways 59 such as NF κB (13-15). 60 Oxylipins derived from omega-3 fatty acids can be either more or less potent than or antagonistic 61 to their omega-6-derived analogs (16), e.g epoxy-omega-3-PUFA are more potent antihypertensive 62 compounds than their arachidonic acid-derived counterparts (17). Even two oxylipins derived from 63 the same PUFA can be antogonists. For instance, TxA2 and PGI 2, both derived from the oxygenation 64 of AA through the COX-dependent metabolism, respectively activate or inhibit thrombosis. Such 65 regulatory cross talk among metabolic cascades is common (18-20). Finally, depending on the 66 receptor, the tissue or the dose, a single oxylipin can also have opposite effects. For example, PGE 2 67 can exert either pro- or anti-aggregatory effects dependingMANUSCRIPT on its dose or the type of EP receptor it 68 binds to (21). Similarly, PGE 2 mediates lung inflammation in human cells (22) whereas it inhibits 69 inflammatory signalling in murine peritoneal macrophages (23) . Moreover, while PGD 2 synthesis can 70 have both pro- and anti-inflammatory impacts, and is synthesized by two convergent gene products 71 (24), regulation of this system controls the onset and resolution of inflammation in some models 72 (25). 73 While oxylipins are found in all tissues, cells are highly selective as to the type of oxylipin they 74 synthesize. For instance,ACCEPTED TxA2 is mainly produced by platelets, while the endothelium is a maJor 75 source of PGI 2. Of note, TxA synthase is also expressed in lung and macrophages and significant levels 76 of PGI synthase is found in smooth muscle cells (26, 27). PGF 2α is mainly produced by uterus, PGE 2 is 77 the maJor oxylipin generated in kidney (5) and skin (28), and the hematopeietic form of PGD 78 synthases is highly expressed in immune and inflammatory cells, but also identified in brain and 4 ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 79 ovary (24, 29). Some LOXs also have preferential cell distribution with LOX-5 being mainly expressed 80 in leukocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells 12/15-LOX (ALOX15 ) has a broad tissue distribution 81 (30) but is notably abundant in eosinophils and bronchial epithelium, 15-LOX2 (ALOX15B ) is highly 82 expressed in the skin and prostate, while

Eicosanoids and related fatty acid derivatives can be formed from arachidonic acid and other polyenoic fatty acids via the cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways generating a variety of pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins, leukotrienes, lipoxins, resolvins and others. The cytochrome P450 pathway leads to the formation of hydroxy fatty acids, such as 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid, and epoxy eicosanoids. Free radical reactions induced by reactive oxygen and/or nitrogen free radical species lead to oxygenated lipids such as isoprostanes or isolevuglandins which also exhibit pro-inflammatory activities. Eicosanoids and their metabolites play fundamental endocrine, autocrine and paracrine roles in both physiological and pathological signaling in various diseases. These molecules induce various unsaturated fatty acid dependent signaling pathways that influence crosstalk, alter cell–cell interactions, and result in a wide spectrum of cellular dysfunctions including those of the tissue microenvironment.

Essential for proper membrane fluidity, these lipidic building-blocks are also implicated in several cellular processes, including cell signaling. In fact, the beneficial effects of a proper omega-3 diet were clearly established in several clinical studies for a large array of pathological conditions including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, chronic inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

    Pediat. Res. 8: 93-102 (1974) Arachidonic acid ethanolamine phosphoglycerides brain lipids choline phosphoglycerides Some Chemical Aspects of Human Brain Development. II. Phosphoglyceride Fatty Acids MANUELAMARTINEZ, CARMEN CONDE, AND ANGELBALLABRIGA[~~~ Autonomous University, School of Medicine, Children's Hospital of the "Seguridad Social," Barcelona, Spain Extract The fatty acids of total phosphoglycerides (TPG), ethanolamine phosphoglycerides (EPG), and choline phosphoglycerides (CPG) were obtained by mild alkaline trans- methylation from lipid extracts of whole cerebrum and then analyzed by gas chroma- tography. A complete brain hemisphere from each of the 34 newborn infants reported previously was homogenized and its lipids extracted according to the procedure speci- fied in that report. As the gestational age of the children went up, a statistically significant increase of the n-3/n-6 ratio and, especially, of the 22:4(n-6)/22:5(n-6) index was observed. Other ratios, such as the n-6/n-9 and the 18:0/18: 1(n-9), were also studied in the fatty acid patterns of EPG and CPG. Both of them showed sig- nificant increases with the gestational age of the infants. The [22 :4(n-6) + 22 :5(n-6)]/ 20:4(n-6) index, an indicator of the elongation process of arachidonic acid, on the other hand, did not show appreciable changes with maturation in TPG during this period of life. When ethanolamine and choline phosphoglycerides were analyzed separately, however, the elongation of arachidonic acid did rise with the gestational age in the former whereas it decreased in the latter. As intrauterine maturation of the human brain progresses, changes in the polyun- saturated fatty acid patterns, contrary to those observed in undernourished animals, take place.

Wiley,† Billy R. Martin,† and Raj K. Razdan* Organix, Inc., 65 Cummings Park, Woburn, Massachusetts 01801 Received March 31, 1997X To examine the effect of changing the length and branching of the end pentyl chain (C5H11)of anandamide (AN), various analogs 1a-h and 2a-f were synthesized from either the known aldehyde ester 6a or from the alcohol 6b and tested for their pharmacological activity. A reproducible procedure was developed for the conversion of arachidonic acid to 6a or 6b in gram quantities (overall yield 15%). The appropriate tetraene esters 7 were prepared by carrying out a Wittig reaction, between 6a and the ylide generated from the phosphonium salt of the appropriate alkyl halide or between the ylide of 6d (prepared from 6a f 6b f 6c f 6d) and the appropriate alkyl aldehydes. They were then hydrolyzed to the corresponding acids and transformed into AN analogs 1 via their acid chlorides then treated with excess ethanolamine. R-Alkylation of esters 7 gave compounds 8 which were hydrolyzed to the corresponding acids. These acids via their acid chlorides and subsequent treatment with excess fluoroethylamine gave the target compounds 2. In this way analogs 1e and 2a-c were synthesized from 6d while all the remaining analogs were prepared from 6a. In order to assess the optimal length of the alkyl terminus, analogs 1a-d were prepared and showed moderately high affinities (18-55 nM).
