Methods A candidate-gene approach tested the association between 5 genes (28 single nucleotide polymorphisms) and Aβ load measured in vivo by the global [18F]florbetapir PET standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) in 338 Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative participants. Significant results were then tested using plasma Aβ and CSF Aβ and Aβ/phosphorylated tau (Aβ/p-tau) ratio in the same cohort. The significant association was also generalized to postmortem Aβ load measurement in the Rush Religious Orders Study/Memory and Aging Project cohorts. In addition, global cognition was used as a phenotype in the analysis in both cohorts. Results Analysis of Aβ PET identified a variant in the CYP2C19 gene (rs4388808; p = 0.0006), in which carriers of the minor allele (MA) had a lower global SUVR. A voxel-wise analysis revealed that the variant is associated with a lower Aβ load in the frontal, inferior temporal, and posterior cingulate cortices.

  • Renal Cytochrome P450 Ω-Hydroxylase and Epoxygenase Activity Are Differentially Modified by Nitric Oxide and Sodium Chloride
    Renal cytochrome P450 ω-hydroxylase and epoxygenase activity are differentially modified by nitric oxide and sodium chloride A.O. Oyekan, … , J. Quilley, J.C. McGiff J Clin Invest. 1999;104(8):1131-1137. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI6786. Article Renal function is perturbed by inhibition of nitric oxide synthase (NOS). To probe the basis of this effect, we characterized the effects of nitric oxide (NO), a known suppressor of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, on metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA), the expression of ω-hydroxylase, and the efflux of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) from the isolated kidney. The capacity to convert [14C]AA to HETEs and epoxides (EETs) was greater in cortical microsomes than in medullary microsomes. Sodium nitroprusside (10–100 μM), an NO donor, inhibited renal microsomal conversion of [14C]AA to HETEs and EETs in a dose-dependent manner. 8-bromo cGMP (100 μM), the cell-permeable analogue of cGMP, did not affect conversion of [14C]AA. Inhibition of NOS with Nω-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester (L-NAME) significantly increased conversion of [14C]AA to HETE and greatly increased the expression of ω-hydroxylase protein, but this treatment had only a modest effect on epoxygenase activity. L-NAME induced a 4-fold increase in renal efflux of 20- HETE, as did L-nitroarginine. Oral treatment with 2% sodium chloride (NaCl) for 7 days increased renal epoxygenase activity, both in the cortex and the medulla. In contrast, cortical ω-hydroxylase activity was reduced by treatment with 2% NaCl. Coadministration of L-NAME and 2% NaCl decreased conversion of [14C]AA to HETEs without affecting epoxygenase activity.

Building upon current knowledge, we hypothesized that epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and related CYP450 epoxygenases may have differential roles in breast cancer signaling, and better understanding of which may uncover potential directions for molecular stratification and personalized therapy for TNBC patients. Methods: We analyzed the oxylipin metabolome of paired tumors and adjacent normal mammary tissues from patients with pathologically confirmed breast cancer (N = 62). We used multivariate statistical analysis to identify important metabolite contributors and to determine the predictive power of tumor tissue metabolite clustering. In vitro functional assays using a panel of breast cancer cell lines were carried out to further confirm the crucial roles of endogenous and exogenous EETs in the metastasis transformation of TNBC cells. Deregulation of associated downstream signaling networks associated with EETs/CYPs was established using transcriptomics datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Molecular Taxonomy of Breast Cancer International Consortium (METABRIC). Comparative TNBC proteomics using the same tissue specimens subjected to oxylipin metabolomics analysis was used as validation set.

  • Interaction of Epoxyeicosatrienoic Acids and Adipocyte Fatty Acid-Binding Protein in the Modulation of Cardiomyocyte Contractility
    International Journal of Obesity (2015) 39, 755–761 © 2015 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0307-0565/15 www.nature.com/ijo ORIGINAL ARTICLE Interaction of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids and adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein in the modulation of cardiomyocyte contractility V Lamounier-Zepter1, C Look1, W-H Schunck2, I Schlottmann1, C Woischwill1, SR Bornstein1,AXu3 and I Morano2 BACKGROUND: Adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (FABP4) is a member of a highly conserved family of cytosolic proteins that bind with high affinity to hydrophobic ligands, such as saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acids and eicosanoids. Recent evidence has supported a novel role for FABP4 in linking obesity with metabolic and cardiovascular disorders. In this context, we identified FABP4 as a main bioactive factor released from human adipose tissue that directly suppresses heart contraction in vitro. As FABP4 is known to be a transport protein, it cannot be excluded that lipid ligands are involved in the cardiodepressant effect as well, acting in an additional and/or synergistic way. OBJECTIVE: We investigated a possible involvement of lipid ligands in the negative inotropic effect of adipocyte factors in vitro. RESULTS: We verified that blocking the CYP epoxygenase pathway in adipocytes attenuates the inhibitory effect of adipocyte- conditioned medium (AM) on isolated adult rat cardiomyocytes, thus suggesting the participation of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) in the cardiodepressant activity. Analysis of AM for EETs revealed the presence of 5,6-, 8,9-, 11,12- and 14,15-EET, whereas 5,6- EET represented about 45% of the total EET concentration in AM. Incubation of isolated cardiomyocytes with EETs in similar concentrations as found in AM showed that 5,6-EET directly suppresses cardiomyocyte contractility.
