Comparative Analysis of Peritoneum and Tumor Eicosanoids and Pathways in Advanced Ovarian Cancer Ralph S Human Cancer Biology Comparative Analysis of Peritoneum and Tumor Eicosanoids and Pathways in Advanced Ovarian Cancer Ralph S. Freedman,1Ena Wang,5 SoniaVoiculescu,5 Rebecca Patenia,1Roland L. Bassett, Jr.,2 Michael Deavers,3 Francesco M. Marincola,5 PeiyingYang,4 and Robert A. Newman4 Abstract Purpose: To describe the eicosanoid profile and differentially expressed eicosanoid and arachidonic acid pathway genes in tissues from patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Experimental Design:We first employed electrospray tandem mass spectrometry to determine tissue-specific concentrations of the eicosanoids prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), the hydroxyeicosate- traenoic acids (12-HETE and 5-HETE), and leukotriene (LTB4), selected for tumor growth potential, and two other bioactive lipids (15-HETE and 13-HODE) with tumor cell proliferation interference potential. The cellular location of eicosanoid activity was identified by immunofluo- rescence antibody costaining and confocal microscopy. Differential analysis of eicosanoid and arachidonic pathway genes was done using a previously validated cDNA microarray platform. Tissues usedincluded EOC tumor, tumor-free malignant peritoneum (MP),and benignperitoneum (BP) from patients with benign pelvic disease. Results: (a) Eicosanoid products were detected in tumor, MP, and BP specimens. PGE2 levels were significantly elevated in tumors in an overall comparison with MP or BP (P < 0.001). Combined levels of PGE2, 12-HETE, 5-HETE, and LTB4 increased progressively from low to high concentrations in BP, MP, and tumors (P = 0.012). Neither 15-HETE nor 13-HODE showed a significant opposite trend toward levels found in BP. (b) Tissue specimens representing common EOC histotypes showed strong coexpressions of cyclooxygenases (COX-1) and prostaglandin E synthases (PGES-1) on tumor cells, whereas intratumoral or peritumoral MO/MA coexpressed COX-1and COX-2and PGES-1and PGES-2,respectively. ( c)cDNAmicroarrayanalysisofMP, BP, and tumor showed that a number of eicosanoid and arachidonic acid pathway genes were differentially expressed in MP and BP compared with tumor, except for CYP2J2, which was increased in tumors. Conclusions: Elevated levels of eicosanoid metabolites in tumors and differential expression of eicosanoid and arachidonic acid pathway genes in the peritoneum support the involvement of bioactive lipids in the inflammatory tumor environment of EOC. Eicosanoids is a collective term for oxygenated derivatives of Arachidonic acid liberated by PLA2 is metabolized by cyclo- different 20-carbon fatty acids such as leukotrienes and oxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes variously prostanoids (prostaglandins, prostacyclins, and thrombox- expressed in cells and tissues, and contribute to the production anes). These bioactive lipids have important functional roles of specific metabolites (1, 3, 4). These bioactive lipids or in regulating many physiologic processes and inflammatory eicosanoids then exert their biological effects in an autocrine or responses (1). Eicosanoid production is a tightly regulated paracrine manner by binding to specific G-coupled receptors process that depends on (a) the acylation and transfer of (5–8).

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.

Cytochrome P450 Enzymes in Oxygenation of Prostaglandin Endoperoxides and Arachidonic Acid: Cloning, Expression and Catalytic Properties of CYP4F8 and CYP4F21. Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from Faculty of Pharmacy 231 50 pp. Uppsala. ISBN 91-554-4784-8. Cytochrome P450 (P450 or CYP) is an enzyme system involved in the oxygenation of a wide range of endogenous compounds as well as foreign chemicals and drugs. This thesis describes investigations of P450-catalyzed oxygenation of prostaglandins, linoleic and arachidonic acids. The formation of bisallylic hydroxy metabolites of linoleic and arachidonic acids was studied with human recombinant P450s and with human liver microsomes. Several P450 enzymes catalyzed the formation of bisallylic hydroxy metabolites. Inhibition studies and stereochemical analysis of metabolites suggest that the enzyme CYP1A2 may contribute to the biosynthesis of bisallylic hydroxy fatty acid metabolites in adult human liver microsomes. 19R-Hydroxy-PGE and 20-hydroxy-PGE are major components of human and ovine semen, respectively. They are formed in the seminal vesicles, but the mechanism of their biosynthesis is unknown. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction using degenerate primers for mammalian CYP4 family genes, revealed expression of two novel P450 genes in human and ovine seminal vesicles.

  • Inhibition of Cytochrome P450 2C8-Mediated Drug Metabolism by the Flavonoid Diosmetin

Diosmetin and hesperetin inhibited 6¡-hydroxy- paclitaxel production in a concentration-dependent manner, diosmetin being about 16-fold more potent than hesperetin (mean IC50 values 4.25 « 0.02 and 68.5 « 3.3 µM for diosmetin and hesperetin, respectively). Due to the low inhibitory potency of hesperetin, we characterized the mechanism of diosmetin-induced inhibition only. This flavonoid proved to be a reversible, dead-end, full inhibitor of CYP2C8, its mean inhibition constant (Ki)being3.13« 0.11 µM. Kinetic analysis showed that diosmetin caused mixed-type inhibition, since it significantly decreased the Vmax (maximum velocity) and increased the Km value (substrate concentration yielding 50% of Vmax) of the reaction. The results of kinetic analyses were consistent with those of molecular docking simulation, which showed that the putative binding site of diosmetin coincided with the CYP2C8 substrate binding site. The demonstration that diosmetin inhibits CYP2C8 at concentrations similar to those observed after in vivo administration (in the low micromolar range) is of potential clinical relevance, since it may cause pharmacokinetic interactions with co- administered drugs metabolized by this CYP.

However, they are increas- ingly associated with a wide variety of other, sometimes surprising, cell functions. Oxysterols have also been implicated in several diseases such as metabolic syndrome. Oxysterols can be sulfated, and the sulfated oxysterols act in different directions: they decrease lipid biosynthesis, suppress inflammatory responses, and promote cell survival. Our recent reports have shown that oxysterol and oxysterol sulfates are paired epigenetic regulators, agonists, and antagonists of DNA methyl- transferases, indicating that their function of global regulation is through epigenetic modification. In this review, we explore our latest research of 25-hydroxycholesterol and 25-hydroxycholesterol 3-sulfate in a novel regulatory mechanism and evaluate the current evidence for these roles.

The metabolism of omega fatty acids has been implicated in tumour growth and metastasis. Methods: This study has characterised the expression of omega fatty acid metabolising enzymes CYP4A11, CYP4F11, CYP4V2 and CYP4Z1 using monoclonal antibodies we have developed. Immunohistochemistry was performed on a tissue microarray containing 650 primary colorectal cancers, 285 lymph node metastasis and 50 normal colonic mucosa. Results: The differential expression of CYP4A11 and CYP4F11 showed a strong association with survival in both the whole patient cohort (HR=1.203, 95% CI=1.092-1.324, χ2=14.968, p=0.001) and in mismatch repair proficient tumours (HR=1.276, 95% CI=1.095-1.488, χ2=9.988, p=0.007). Multivariate analysis revealed that the differential expression of CYP4A11 and CYP4F11 was independently prognostic in both the whole patient cohort (p = 0.019) and in mismatch repair proficient tumours (p=0.046). Conclusions: A significant and independent association has been identified between overall survival and the differential expression of CYP4A11 and CYP4F11 in the whole patient cohort and in mismatch repair proficient tumours.

Identification of Novel CYP2E1 Inhibitor to Investigate Cellular and Exosomal CYP2E1-Mediated Toxicity Abstract Cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1)-mediated hepatic and extra-hepatic toxicity is of significant clinical importance. Diallyl sulfide (DAS) has been shown to prevent xenobiotics such as alcohol- (ALC/ETH), acetaminophen- (APAP) induced toxicity and disease (e.g. HIV-1) pathogenesis. DAS imparts its beneficial effect by inhibiting CYP2E1-mediated metabolism of xenobiotics, especially at high concentration. However, DAS also causes toxicity at relatively high dosages and with long exposure times. The objective of the first project was to find potent ASD analogs which can replace DAS as a research tool or as potential adjuvant therapy in CYP2E1-mediated pathologies.

  • Warfarin Sensitivity (CYP2C8, CYP2C9
    Patient Report |FINAL Section 79-1 of New York State Civil Rights Law requires informed consent be obtained from patients (or their legal guardians) prior to pursuing genetic testing. These forms must be kept on file by the ordering physician. Consent forms for genetic testing are available at www.aruplab.com. Incidental findings are not reported unless clinically significant but are available upon request. A Neg result indicates that no variants were detected. All variant alleles are defined based on consensus nomenclature and suggest reduced function of the associated protein(s). CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 are associated with inactivation of warfarin through metabolism. Variant alleles suggest reduced rates of warfarin metabolism, a prolonged time required to achieve steady-state concentrations, and a reduced dose requirement. CYP4F2 is associated with vitamin K recycling. Variant alleles suggest an increased dose requirement. VKORC1 is the therapeutic target for warfarin. Variant alleles suggest increased warfarin sensitivity and a reduced dose requirement. Dosing calculators such as that available through www.WarfarinDosing.org are available to predict loading and therapeutic/maintenance doses. This result has been reviewed and approved by , Ph.D. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Warfarin Sensitivity (CYP2C8, CYP2C9 , CYP4F2, VKORC1) Genotyping CHARACTERISTICS: Warfarin sensitivity can lead to a life-threatening overdose event such as excessive bleeding. Genetic variation is recognized to explain a large proportion of variability in warfarin dose requirements. This test may predict individual warfarin sensitivity and non-standard dose requirements. The cytochrome P450 (CYP) isozymes 2C8 and 2C9 are involved in the metabolism of many drugs. Variants in the genes that code for CYP2C8 and CYP2C9 may influence pharmacokinetics of substrates such as warfarin, and may predict or explain non-standard dose requirements, therapeutic failure or adverse reactions.

  • Characterization of Human Glutathione-Dependent Microsomal Prostaglandin E Synthase-1
    Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics, Division of Chemistry II, Karolinska Institutet, 171 77 Stockholm, Sweden Characterization of human glutathione-dependent microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 Staffan Thorén Stockholm 2003 ABSTRACT Prostaglandins (PGs) are lipid mediators, which act as local hormones. PGs are formed in most cells and are synthesized de novo from membrane-released arachidonic acid (AA) upon cell activation. Prostaglandin H synthase (PGHS) –1 or 2, also referred to as COX-1 and COX-2, metabolize AA to PGH2, which is subsequently converted in a cell-specific manner by downstream enzymes to biologically active prostanoids, i.e. PGE2, PGD2, PGF2α, PGI2 or TXA2. PGHS-1 is constitutively expressed in many cells and is mainly involved in housekeeping functions, such as vascular homeostasis, whereas PGHS-2 can be induced by proinflammatory cytokines at sites of inflammation. Prostaglandin E synthase (PGES) specifically catalyzes the conversion of PGH2 to PGE2, which is a biologically potent prostaglandin involved in several pathological conditions; including pain, fever, inflammation and possibly some forms of cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. mPGES-1 was initially identified as a homologue to microsomal glutathione transferase-1 (MGST1) with 37% identity on the amino acid sequence level and referred to as MGST1-like 1 (MGST1- L1). Based on the properties of MGST1-L1, regarding size, amino acid sequence, hydropathy and membrane localization, the protein was identified as a member of the MAPEG-superfamily (membrane- associated proteins in eicosanoid and glutathione metabolism). The superfamily consists of 16-18 kDa, integral membrane proteins with typical hydropathy profiles and diverse functions. The MAPEG family comprises six human members, which in addition to mPGES-1 are; 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP), leukotriene C4 synthase (LTC4S), MGST1, MGST2 and MGST3.

Current methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) is yet to ensure 100% successful treatment as the optimum dosage has yet to be determined. Overdose leads to death while lower dose causes the opioid withdrawal effect. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in cytochrome P450s (CYPs), the methadone metabolizers, have been showen to be the main factor for the interindividual variability of methadone clinical effects. In this study, we investigated the effect of SNPs in three major methadone metabolizers ∗ ∗ ∗ (CYP2B6, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4) on methadone binding affinity. Results showed that CYP2B6 11, CYP2B6 12, CYP2B6 18,and ∗ CYP3A4 12 have significantly higher binding affinity to R-methadone compared to wild type.

Overuse of medications, especially in patients with chronic diseases, carries major health risks. One common consequence of polypharmacy is the increased emergence of adverse drug events, mainly from drug–drug interactions. The majority of currently available drugs are metabolized by CYP450 enzymes. Interactions due to shared CYP450-mediated metabolic pathways for two or more drugs are frequent, especially through reversible or irreversible CYP450 inhibition. The magnitude of these interactions depends on several factors, including varying affinity and concentration of substrates, time delay between the administration of the drugs, and mechanisms of CYP450 inhibition. Various types of CYP450 inhibition (competitive, non-competitive, mechanism-based) have been observed clinically, and interactions of these types require a distinct clinical management strategy. This review focuses on mechanism-based inhibition, which occurs when a substrate forms a reactive intermediate, creating a stable enzyme–intermediate complex that irreversibly reduces enzyme activity.
