Prostaglandins Inhibit 5-Lipoxygenase-Activating Protein Expression and Leukotriene B4 Production from Dendritic Cells Via an IL-10-Dependent Mechanism

Abstract: PGs produced from arachidonic acid by the action of cyclooxygenase enzymes play a pivotal role in the regulation of both inflammatory and immune responses. Because leukotriene B4 (LTB4), a product of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway, can exert numerous immunoregulatory and proinflammatory activities, we examined the effects of PGs on LTB4 release from dendritic cells (DC) and from peritoneal macrophages. In concentration-dependent manner, PGE1 and PGE2 inhibited the production of LTB4 from DC, but not from perito… Show more

“…Although we have shown that enhanced PGE 2 production inhibits initial LTB 4 production, it is likely that 5-LOX activity is not completely inhibited in COX-2 overexpressers but that the mass ratio of products has heavily shifted toward prostaglandin signaling. We cannot rule out, however, other indirect effects that PGE 2 might have on LTB 4 production such as the inhibition of 5-LOX-activating protein (FLAP) via an IL-10-dependent mechanism as was seen in dendritic cells (12).…”

“…Eicosanoids interfere with each other's production both in vivo (23) or in vitro (38). Systemic OVA sensitization alone increased PGE 2 production in the lung, and LTRA treatment further enhanced it (Fig.…”

“…3C). Harizi et al (38) previously reported that LTB 4 does not affect COX expression and PGE 2 production from macrophages. In addition, in our in vivo experiments, the cells most responsible for PGE 2 production seem to be macrophages, because cells in BALF mainly consisted of alveolar macrophages (Table ⌱), and PGE synthase mainly exists in macrophages, at least in mice (39).…”

“…PGE 2 has been reported to have other actions, e.g. suppressing dendritic cell leukotriene B 4 secretion by an IL-10-dependent mechanism (22) . The enzyme pathways that metabolise arachidonic acid also metabolise n-3 PUFA such as EPA to 3-series PG and 5-series leukotrienes that possess biological activity, albeit less potent than arachidonic acid metabolites.…”
