    Abstract 12(S)-hydroxyheptadecatrienoic acid (12-HHT) is a bioactive fatty acid synthesized from arachidonic acid via the cyclooxygenase pathway and serves as an endogenous ligand for the low-affinity leukotriene B4 receptor 2 (BLT2). Although the 12-HHT/BLT2 axis contributes to the maintenance of epithelial homeostasis, 12-HHT metabolism under physiological conditions is unclear. In this study, 12-keto-heptadecatrienoic acid (12-KHT) and 10,11-dihydro-12-KHT (10,11dh-12-KHT) were detected as 12-HHT metabolites in the human megakaryocytic cell line MEG01s. We found that 12-KHT and 10,11dh-12-KHT are produced from 12-HHT by 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) and prostaglandin reductase 1 (PTGR1), key enzymes in the degradation of prostaglandins, respectively. The 15-PGDH inhibitor SW033291 completely suppressed the production of 12-KHT and 10,11dh-12-KHT in MEG01s cells, resulting in a 9-fold accumulation of 12-HHT. 12-KHT and 10,11dh-12-KHT were produced in mouse skin wounds, and the levels were significantly suppressed by SW033291. Surprisingly, the agonistic activities of 12-KHT and 10,11dh-12-KHT on BLT2 were comparable to that of 12-HHT. Taken together, 12-HHT is metabolized into 12-KHT by 15-PGDH, and then 10,11dh-12-KHT by PTGR1 without losing the agonistic activity.

    Abstract Acute lung injury is one of major complications associated with sepsis, responsible for morbidity and mortality. Patients who suffer from acute lung injury often require respiratory support under sedations, and it would be important to know the role of sedatives in lung injury. We examined volatile anesthetic isoflurane, which is commonly used in surgical setting, but also used as an alternative sedative in intensive care settings in European countries and Canada. We found that isoflurane exposure attenuated neutrophil recruitment to the lungs in mice suffering from experimental polymicrobial abdominal sepsis. We found that isoflurane attenuated one of major neutrophil chemoattractants LTB

    Abstract Acute lung injury is one of major complications associated with sepsis, responsible for morbidity and mortality. Patients who suffer from acute lung injury often require respiratory support under sedations, and it would be important to know the role of sedatives in lung injury. We examined volatile anesthetic isoflurane, which is commonly used in surgical setting, but also used as an alternative sedative in intensive care settings in European countries and Canada. We found that isoflurane exposure attenuated neutrophil recruitment to the lungs in mice suffering from experimental polymicrobial abdominal sepsis. We found that isoflurane attenuated one of major neutrophil chemoattractants LTB₄ mediated response via its receptor BLT1 in neutrophils. Furthermore, we have shown that isoflurane directly bound to BLT1 by a competition assay using newly developed labeled BLT1 antagonist, suggesting that isoflurane would be a BLT1 antagonist.

    Abstract Wound healing is an important process in the human body to protect against external threats. A dysregulation at any stage of the wound healing process may result in the development of various intractable ulcers or excessive scar formation. Numerous factors such as growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines are involved in this process and play vital roles in tissue repair. Moreover, recent studies have demonstrated that lipid mediators derived from membrane fatty acids are also involved in the process of wound healing. Among these lipid mediators, we focus on eicosanoids such as prostaglandins, thromboxane, leukotrienes, and specialized pro-resolving mediators, which are produced during wound healing processes and play versatile roles in the process. This review article highlights the roles of eicosanoids on skin wound healing, especially focusing on the biosynthetic pathways and biological functions, i.e., inflammation, proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, remodeling, and scarring.

    Abstract Since sepsis was defined three decades ago, it has been a target of intensive study. However, there is no specific sepsis treatment available, with its high mortality and morbidity. αDβ2 (CD11d/CD18) is one of the four β2 integrin members. Its role in sepsis has been limitedly studied. Using an experimental polymicrobial sepsis model, we found that the deficiency of αDβ2 was associated with less lung injury and better outcome, which was in sharp contrast to other β2 integrin member αLβ2 (CD11a/CD18), and αMβ2 (CD11b/CD18). This phenotype was supported by a reduction of bacterial loads in αDβ2 knockout mice. Further analysis showed that the deficiency of αDβ2 led to a reduction of neutrophil cell death as well as an increase in neutrophil phagocytosis in both murine and human systems. Our data showed a unique role of αDβ2 among the β2 integrin members, which would serve as a potential target to improve the outcome of sepsis.

    Abstract Crescent formation is the most important pathological finding that defines the prognosis of nephritis. Although neutrophils are known to play an important role in the progression of crescentic glomerulonephritis, such as anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated glomerulonephritis, the key chemoattractant for neutrophils in ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis has not been identified. Here, we demonstrate that a lipid chemoattractant, leukotriene B

    Abstract Background: There is limited evidence on the association between the clinical course of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and prostaglandin (PG) metabolites. This study aimed to determine the influence of PDA treatment on urinary PG metabolite excretion in very-low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants.
    Methods: Urine samples were collected from 25 VLBW infants at 1, 3, and 7 days of age. Infants were separated into two groups: a PDA-treated group that received a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX) inhibitor (n = 12) and a control group that did not receive a COX inhibitor during the first 7 days after birth (n = 13). Urinary PG metabolite tetranor prostaglandin E
    Results: Urinary t-PGEM excretion levels were not significantly different between the groups at 1, 3, and 7 days of age. Urinary t-PGDM excretion levels at 1 day of age were higher in PDA-treated infants than in control infants (median [interquartile range]: 5.5 [2.6, 12.2] versus 2.1 [1.0, 3.9] ng/mg creatinine; p = 0.017); however, among PDA-treated infants, the levels were significantly lower at 3 and 7 days than at 1 day of age (5.5 [2.6, 12.2] versus 3.4 [1.7, 4.5] and 4.0 [1.7, 5.3] ng/mg creatinine, respectively; p < 0.05). The urinary t-PGDM excretion level in the control group did not significantly differ among the time points.
    Conclusion: PDA and COX inhibitor administration affected PG metabolism in VLBW infants. Our results indicated that urinary t-PGDM excretion was significantly associated with PDA-treatment in preterm infants.
