20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid is a potent dilator of mouse basilar artery: role of cyclooxygenase.
    American journal of physiology. Heart and circulatory physiology, 2006, Volume: 291, Issue:5

    20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), an arachidonic acid (AA) metabolite synthesized by cytochrome P-450 omega-oxidases, is reported to produce vasoconstriction in the cerebral circulation. However, we find that like 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (14,15-EET), 20-HETE produces dilation of mouse basilar artery preconstricted with U-46619 in vitro. Indomethacin inhibited the vasodilation produced by 20-HETE but not by 14,15-EET, suggesting a cyclooxygenase (COX)-dependent mechanism. Metabolic studies indicated several mechanisms that may play a role in this process. Mouse brain endothelial cells (MBEC) converted 20-HETE to 20-OH-PGE(2), which was as potent as PGE(2) in dilating the basilar artery. 20-HETE also stimulated AA release and PGE(2) and 6-keto-PGF(1alpha) production in MBEC. Furthermore, the basilar artery converted 20-HETE to 20-COOH-AA, which also produced COX-dependent dilation of the basilar artery. 20-COOH-AA increased AA release and PGE(2) and 6-keto-PGF(1alpha) production by the MBEC, but to a lesser extent than 20-HETE. Whereas the conversion of 20-HETE to 20-OH-PGE(2) and production of endogenous prostaglandins probably are primarily responsible for vasodilation, the production of 20-COOH-AA also may contribute to this process.

The synthesis of 20-HETE in small porcine coronary arteries antagonizes EDHF-mediated relaxation.
    Cardiovascular research, 2005, Feb-01, Volume: 65, Issue:2

    Exogenous application of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) to small (300-500 microm) porcine coronary arteries elicits contraction by activating the Rho kinase and increasing the sensitivity of contractile proteins to Ca2+. Here, we determined whether 20-HETE is involved in the regulation of coronary artery tone as well as its role in the modulation of endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor (EDHF)-mediated responses.. Small porcine coronary arteries expressed cytochrome P450 (CYP) 4A, as demonstrated by Western blot analysis, and generated 20-HETE. Moreover, 20-HETE production was increased two- and threefold over basal levels in response to isometric stretch or the thromboxane analogue U46619, respectively, and was inhibited by the CYP 4A inhibitor N-methylsulfonyl-12,12-dibromododec-11-enamide (DDMS). In vascular reactivity studies, DDMS attenuated U46619-induced contractions and induced a concentration-dependent but endothelium-independent relaxation of precontracted arterial rings. Endogenously generated 20-HETE significantly inhibited the EDHF-mediated relaxation of coronary arteries, which was potentiated by the phospholipase A2 inhibitors AACOCF3 and ONO-RS-082, as well as by the omega-hydroxylase inhibitors 17-octadecynoic acid and DDMS. EDHF-mediated relaxation was not affected by either the nonselective epoxygenase inhibitors miconazole and clotrimazole or the CYP 2C inhibitor sulfaphenazole but was abolished by the Na-K-ATPase inhibitor, ouabain. Exogenous application of 20-HETE inhibited EDHF-mediated relaxations and caused a concomitant increase in the phosphorylation of protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha). This effect was reversed by the PKC inhibitor Ro-318220 and mimicked by the PKC activator phorbol-12 myristate 13-acetate.. These results indicate that vascular tone in small porcine coronary arteries is partly determined by the endogenous production of 20-HETE. In addition, 20-HETE functionally antagonizes EDHF-mediated relaxation via a PKCalpha-dependent mechanism, probably involving the inhibition of the Na-K-ATPase.

Vanilloid receptor TRPV1, sensory C-fibers, and vascular autoregulation: a novel mechanism involved in myogenic constriction.
    Circulation research, 2004, Nov-12, Volume: 95, Issue:10

    Myogenic constriction describes the innate ability of resistance arteries to constrict in response to elevations in intraluminal pressure and is a fundamental determinant of peripheral resistance and, hence, organ perfusion and systemic blood pressure. However, the receptor/cell-type that senses changes in pressure on the blood vessel wall and the pathway that couples this to constriction of vascular smooth muscle remain unclear. In this study, we show that elevation of intraluminal transmural pressure of mesenteric small arteries in vitro results in a myogenic response that is profoundly suppressed following ablation of sensory C-fiber activity (using in vitro capsaicin desensitization resulted in 72.8+/-10.3% inhibition, n=8; P<0.05). Activation of C-fiber nerve endings by pressure was attributable to stimulation of neuronal vanilloid receptor, TRPV1, because blockers of this channel, capsazepine (71.9+/-11.1% inhibition, n=9; P<0.001) and ruthenium red (46.1+/-11.7% inhibition, n=4; P<0.05), suppressed the myogenic constriction. In addition, this C-fiber dependency is likely related to neuropeptide substance P release and activity because blockade of tachykinin NK1 receptors (66.3+/-13.7% inhibition, n=6; P<0.001), and not NK2 receptors (n=4, NS), almost abolished the myogenic response. Previous studies support a role for 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) in myogenic constriction responses; herein, we show that 20-HETE-induced constriction of mesenteric resistance arteries is blocked by capsazepine. Together, these results suggest that elevation of intraluminal pressure is associated with generation of 20-HETE that, in turn, activates TRPV1 on C-fiber nerve endings resulting in depolarization of nerves and consequent vasoactive neuropeptide release. These findings identify a novel mechanism contributing to Bayliss' myogenic constriction and highlights an alternative pathway that may be targeted in the therapeutics of vascular disease, such as hypertension, where enhanced myogenic constriction plays a role in the pathogenesis.

Inhibitors of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid reduce renal vasoconstrictor responsiveness.
    The Journal of pharmacology and experimental therapeutics, 2003, Volume: 307, Issue:1

    20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) is a cytochrome P450-derived constrictor eicosanoid produced by the preglomerular vasculature where it contributes to regulation of tone. Removal of the tonic inhibitory influence of nitric oxide (NO) has been reported to increase renal 20-HETE release. Because inhibition of NO synthesis enhances responses to vasoconstrictor agents, we examined a contribution for increased 20-HETE generation. In the rat kidney perfused with Krebs' buffer, responses to U46619 (9,11-dideoxy-9alpha,11alpha-methanoepoxy PGF2alpha), a thromboxane A2 mimetic, were compared before and after 50 microM L-nitroarginine (L-NA) to inhibit NO synthase. L-NA raised perfusion pressure (PP) from 79 +/- 3 to 190 +/- 7 mm Hg and enhanced constrictor responsiveness to U46619. U46619 (10, 30, 100, and 300 ng) increased PP by 7 +/- 1, 17 +/- 2, 50 +/- 7, and 67 +/- 7 mm Hg, respectively, before L-NA and 15 +/- 1, 37 +/- 7, 68 +/- 10, and 85 +/- 11 mm Hg, respectively, after L-NA, which did not increase 20-HETE efflux from the kidney. Nonetheless, an inhibitor of omega-hydroxylase, dibromododecencyl methylsulfonimide (DDMS), which reduced 20-HETE release, normalized the enhanced responsiveness to U46619. When PP was elevated with phenylephrine, vasoconstrictor responses to U46619 were similarly enhanced, an effect that was also prevented by DDMS. DDMS and an antagonist of 20-HETE, 20-HEDE [20-hydroxyeicosa-6(Z), 15(Z)-dienoic acid], also reduced vasoconstrictor responses to U46619 in the absence of elevation of PP. Because 20-HETE inhibits K+ channels, we examined the effects of K+ channel inhibitors on vasoconstrictor responses and showed that both tetraethylammonium (TEA) and charybdotoxin enhanced renal vasoconstrictor responses to U46619. However, the inhibitory effects of 20-HEDE on vasoconstrictor responses remained after treatment with TEA. These results support a role for 20-HETE vasoconstrictor responses but suggest an action independent of K+ channels.

20-HETE relaxes bovine coronary arteries through the release of prostacyclin.
    Hypertension (Dallas, Tex. : 1979), 1998, Volume: 31, Issue:1 Pt 2

    Neutrophils respond to ischemic injury by infiltrating the myocardium via the vascular wall. During this process, neutrophils are activated and release inflammatory mediators. Some of these mediators are metabolites of arachidonic acid. We have reported that neutrophils metabolize arachidonic acid to 20-HETE, a cytochrome P450 metabolite. We investigated the effects of 20-HETE on coronary vascular tone by examining 20-HETE-induced changes in isometric tension in bovine coronary artery rings precontracted with the thromboxane-mimetic, U46619. 20-HETE relaxed precontracted coronary rings in a concentration-dependent manner (EC50 of 3 x 10(-7) mol/L). Pretreatment with indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, shifted the concentration-response curve to the right (EC50 of 1 x 10(-6) mol/L); maximal relaxations were not affected. This suggested that 20-HETE-induced relaxations were, in part, dependent on the cyclooxygenase pathway. Relaxations to 20-HETE were not significantly changed in endothelium-denuded rings. To determine whether metabolism of 20-HETE to a vasoactive compound might explain the relaxations caused by 20-HETE, rings of coronary artery were incubated with [3H] 20-HETE. The incubation buffer was extracted and the [3H] products resolved on reverse-phase HPLC. Both denuded and intact arteries failed to metabolize [3H] 20-HETE. To investigate whether 20-HETE-induced relaxations were related to release of prostacyclin, we measured the release of 6-keto PGF1alpha, the stable metabolite of prostacyclin, from bovine coronary arteries. 20-HETE (1 x 10(-6) mol/L) stimulated an increase in 6-keto PGF1alpha in intact vessels (908 +/- 138 pg/mL versus 1402 +/- 157 pg/mL, basal versus stimulated). Thus, 20-HETE-induced relaxations are due, in part, to the stimulation of the release of the dilatory prostanoid, prostacyclin.
