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.

  • A Mouse Mutation in the 12R-Lipoxygenase, Alox12b, Disrupts Formation of the Epidermal Permeability Barrier Jennifer L
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Elsevier - Publisher Connector ORIGINAL ARTICLE A Mouse Mutation in the 12R-Lipoxygenase, Alox12b, Disrupts Formation of the Epidermal Permeability Barrier Jennifer L. Moran1, Haiyan Qiu1, Annick Turbe-Doan1, Yujuan Yun1, William E. Boeglin2, Alan R. Brash2 and David R. Beier1 Nonbullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (NCIE) is a nonsyndromic form of autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis characterized by hyperkeratosis and a disruption in the epidermal permeability barrier. Identification of mutations in two lipoxygenases (LOXs), ALOX12B (12R-LOX) and ALOXE3 (eLOX3), and further functional studies implicate ALOX12B and ALOXE3 in the etiology of NCIE. Here, we report a mutation in Alox12b in the recessive ethylnitrosurea-induced mouse mutant, mummy (Alox12bmmy-Bei). mummy mutants have red, scaly skin and die perinatally. Histologically, mummy mutants display defects in the epidermis. We mapped mummy to a 1.9 Mb interval on Chr. 11 containing Alox12b (12R-LOX), Aloxe3 (eLOX3) and Alox15b (8-LOX). Sequencing of all three genes identified a nonsense mutation in the catalytic domain of Alox12b.We demonstrate that mummy mutants have a disrupted epidermal permeability barrier and that the nonsense mutation in mummy abolishes the enzyme activity of 12R-LOX. The mummy mutant provides a mouse model for LOX-mediated NCIE and is the first described mouse mutant affecting epidermal barrier formation identified by forward genetics.

  • Identification of a Novel Enzyme from E. Pacifica That Acts As an Eicosapentaenoic 8R-LOX and Docosahexaenoic 10R-LOX
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Identifcation of a novel enzyme from E. pacifca that acts as an eicosapentaenoic 8R‑LOX and docosahexaenoic 10R‑LOX Sayaka Yuki1,5, Aiko Uemura1, Mayuka Hakozaki1, Akira Yano1, Masato Abe2, Yoshihisa Misawa3, Naomichi Baba3 & Hidetoshi Yamada1,4,5* North Pacifc krill (Euphausia pacifca) contain 8R‑hydroxy‑eicosapentaenoic acid (8R‑HEPE), 8R‑hydroxy‑eicosatetraenoic acid (8R‑HETE) and 10R‑hydroxy‑docosahexaenoic acid (10R‑HDHA). These fndings indicate that E. pacifca must possess an R type lipoxygenase, although no such enzyme has been identifed in krill. We analyzed E. pacifca cDNA sequence using next generation sequencing and identifed two lipoxygenase genes (PK-LOX1 and 2). PK-LOX1 and PK-LOX2 encode proteins of 691 and 686 amino acids, respectively. Recombinant PK‑LOX1 was generated in Sf9 cells using a baculovirus expression system. PK‑LOX1 metabolizes eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) to 8R‑HEPE, arachidonic acid (ARA) to 8R‑HETE and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to 10R‑HDHA. Moreover, PK‑LOX1 had higher activity for EPA than ARA and DHA. In addition, PK‑LOX1 also metabolizes 17S‑HDHA to 10R,17S‑dihydroxy‑docosahexaenoic acid (10R,17S‑DiHDHA). PK‑LOX1 is a novel lipoxygenase that acts as an 8R‑lipoxygenase for EPA and 10R‑lipoxygenase for DHA and 17S‑HDHA. Our fndings show PK‑LOX1 facilitates the enzymatic production of hydroxy fatty acids, which are of value to the healthcare sector.

  • Regulation of Tissue Inflammation by 12-Lipoxygenases
    biomolecules Review Regulation of Tissue Inflammation by 12-Lipoxygenases Abhishek Kulkarni 1 , Jerry L. Nadler 2, Raghavendra G. Mirmira 1,* and Isabel Casimiro 1,* 1 Department of Medicine, The University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637, USA; [email protected] 2 Department of Medicine and Pharmacology, New York Medical College, Valhalla, NY 10595, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (R.G.M.); [email protected] (I.C.) Abstract: Lipoxygenases (LOXs) are lipid metabolizing enzymes that catalyze the di-oxygenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids to generate active eicosanoid products. 12-lipoxygenases (12-LOXs) primarily oxygenate the 12th carbon of its substrates. Many studies have demonstrated that 12-LOXs and their eicosanoid metabolite 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoate (12-HETE), have significant pathological implications in inflammatory diseases. Increased level of 12-LOX activity promotes stress (both oxidative and endoplasmic reticulum)-mediated inflammation, leading to damage in these tissues. 12-LOXs are also associated with enhanced cellular migration of immune cells—a characteristic of several metabolic and autoimmune disorders. Genetic depletion or pharmacological inhibition of the enzyme in animal models of various diseases has shown to be protective against disease development and/or progression in animal models in the setting of diabetes, pulmonary, cardiovascular, and metabolic disease, suggesting a translational potential of targeting the enzyme for the treatment of several disorders. In this article, we review the role of 12-LOXs in the pathogenesis of several diseases in which chronic inflammation plays an underlying role.

Recent studies have indicated functional roles of ALOX5, ALOX12, ALOX12B, and ALOX15 in the development of insulin resistance and islet β-cell dysfunc- tion. However, the impact of their genetic variants on type 2 diabetes (T2D) development in Asian patients remains unclear. In this study, 1,682 healthy controls and 788 patients with T2D were enrolled for genotyping those four ALOX genes by the TaqMan method. A total of eight Han Chinese-specific SNPs (two SNps for each gene) were selected for this study.
