The controlled release of arachidonic acid from a cell or a tissue. [GOC:ai]
Arachidonic acid (AA) secretion is a complex biological process that involves the release of AA from membrane phospholipids. This process is critical for the production of various signaling molecules, including prostaglandins, thromboxanes, leukotrienes, and lipoxins, which play diverse roles in inflammation, pain, and immune responses.
The process begins with the activation of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes, which are responsible for hydrolyzing the sn-2 position of membrane phospholipids, specifically phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and phosphatidylcholine (PC). These phospholipids contain AA esterified to their sn-2 position.
Upon activation, PLA2 enzymes cleave the ester bond, releasing free AA from the membrane. Several factors can trigger PLA2 activation, including:
- **Calcium influx:** Increased intracellular calcium levels activate Ca2+-dependent PLA2 enzymes, such as cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2).
- **Signaling pathways:** Activation of various signaling pathways, such as the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and the protein kinase C (PKC) pathway, can also stimulate PLA2 activity.
- **Mechanical stimuli:** Physical stimuli, such as stretching or pressure, can activate PLA2 enzymes.
- **Inflammatory mediators:** Pro-inflammatory mediators, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-1 (IL-1), can induce PLA2 activation.
Once released from the membrane, AA is rapidly metabolized by cyclooxygenases (COX), lipoxygenases (LOX), and cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. COX enzymes produce prostaglandins and thromboxanes, LOX enzymes generate leukotrienes and lipoxins, and CYP enzymes synthesize various AA metabolites.
The production of these signaling molecules has diverse physiological effects. For example:
- Prostaglandins play a role in inflammation, pain, and fever.
- Thromboxanes promote platelet aggregation and vasoconstriction.
- Leukotrienes contribute to inflammation, bronchoconstriction, and chemotaxis.
- Lipoxins have anti-inflammatory properties and promote wound healing.
The regulation of AA secretion is tightly controlled to ensure proper cellular function and to prevent excessive inflammation. Several mechanisms contribute to the regulation of AA secretion, including:
- **PLA2 inhibitors:** Specific inhibitors of PLA2 enzymes, such as glucocorticoids and lipocortins, can block the release of AA.
- **Phospholipid remodeling:** Cells can alter the composition of their membrane phospholipids to reduce the availability of AA for release.
- **Feedback inhibition:** The products of AA metabolism can inhibit PLA2 activity, creating a negative feedback loop.
In summary, AA secretion is a crucial process that involves the release of AA from membrane phospholipids by PLA2 enzymes. This process is tightly regulated and plays a critical role in the production of various signaling molecules that mediate inflammation, pain, and other physiological processes.'
