Oxylipins are oxygenated derivatives of polyunsaturated fatty acids, generated by COX, LOX and CYP enzymes, that regulate various aspects of endothelial cell physiology. Although 15-LOX and its products are positively associated with atherosclerosis, the relevant mechanisms have not been explored. The current study examined the effects of PD146176 (PD), a putative 15-LOX inhibitor, on EA.hy926 endothelial cell functions in the growing and confluent states. The effects of PD on endothelial cell oxylipin production (profiled by LC/MS/MS), cell viability, proliferation, eNOS activity, ICAM-1 and VE-cadherin levels were assessed. The contribution of signaling pathways relevant to endothelial function (p38 MAPK, Akt, PPARα) were also investigated. PD treatment for 30 min did not block formation of individual 15-LOX oxylipins, but 20 μM PD stimulated the accumulation of total LOX and COX products, while reducing several individual CYP products generated by epoxygenase. At 20 μM, the accumulated total oxylipins were primarily LOX-derived (86%) followed by COX (12%) and CYP (2%). PD altered cell functions by upregulating p38 MAPK and PPARα and downregulating Akt in a dose-dependent fashion. These observations suggest a link between PD-induced changes in oxylipins and altered endothelial cell functions via specific signaling pathways. In conclusion, the results of this study imply that PD does not function as a 15-LOX inhibitor in EA.hy926 endothelial cells, and instead inhibits CYP epoxygenase. These findings suggest that the cellular function changes induced by PD may be contingent upon its ability to modulate total oxylipin production, particularly by the LOX and CYP families.
