Abstract [en]

Leukotrienes (LT) are potent pro-inflammatory mediators formed from arachidonic acid (AA) in reactions catalyzed by 5-lipoxygenase and either leukotriene A4 hydrolase or leukotriene C4 synthase. 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP) is also required. We have previously reported expression of FLAP in the hematopoietic compartment of the fetal liver raising questions regarding the role of leukotrienes in hematopoietic regulation. Here we report evidence from in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry and qRT-PCR experiments that the complete LT biosynthesis machinery is abundantly expressed in hematopoietic cells of the fetal mouse liver from e11.5 until birth. FACS sorting of hematopoietic cells from e15.5 liver and adult bone marrow into different subpopulations followed by quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that expression was confined mainly to myeloid cells but also detected in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Analysis of FLAP knockout mice showed that a lack of this gene abolished LT and reduced 5(S)- hydroxyeicosa-6E,8Z,11Z,14Z-tetraenoic acid (HETE) production. Furthermore,  decreased relative numbers of B-lymphocytes and increased numbers of T-lymphocytes were observed in peripheral blood and increased numbers of common lymphoid progenitor cells were observed in BM. Taken together these findings suggest that production of LTs can occur in cells of the fetal and adult hematopoietic compartments and that deficiency of the FLAP gene (and leukotrienes) may affect lymphocyte maturation.

Abstract [en]

Leukotrienes (LTs) are biologically active arachidonic acid (AA) derivatives generated by the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway. They are produced by myeloid cells. 5-LO converts AA to LTA4 in cooperation with 5-LO activating protein (FLAP). LTA4 is converted to LTB4, by LTA4-hydrolase (LTA4H) or to LTC4 by LTC4-synthase (LTC4S). LTs act on cells through plasma membrane bound G-protein coupled receptors found on leukocytes, smooth muscle and endothelial cells. We report here protein-protein interactions of proteins involved in LTC4 synthesis. 5-LO interacts with cytosolic domains of the integral membrane proteins FLAP and LTC4S at the nuclear envelope, in addition LTC4S interacts with FLAP through its hydrophobic membrane spanning regions. We constructed an LTC4S promoter controlled GFP reporter vector, displaying cell specific expression and sensitivity to agents known to affect LTC4S expression. The vector was used to create transgenic mice expressing GFP as a reporter for LTC4S. Ontogenic mouse expression studies revealed that the complete LT biosynthesis machinery was present at e11.5 primarily in the hematopoietic cells colonizing the liver. Although mature myeloid cells were the main contributors, a substantial amount of FLAP message was also detected in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, indicating possible functions for FLAP in hematopoietic regulation. Functional analyses using FLAP knockout mice suggested fine-tuning roles for LTs during differentiation, primarily along the B-lymphocyte differentiation path.
