RESUMO
12/15-Lipoxygenase (LOX) activity is elevated in vascular diseases associated with impaired nitric oxide (⋅NO) bioactivity, such as hypertension and atherosclerosis. In this study, primary porcine monocytes expressing 12/15-LOX, rat A10 smooth muscle cells transfected with murine 12/15-LOX, and purified porcine 12/15-LOX all consumed ⋅NO in the presence of lipid substrate. Suppression of LOX diene conjugation by ⋅NO was also found, although the lipid product profile was unchanged. ⋅NO consumption by porcine monocytes was inhibited by the LOX inhibitor, eicosatetraynoic acid. Rates of arachidonate (AA)- or linoleate (LA)-dependent ⋅NO depletion by porcine monocytes (2.68 ± 0.03 nmol ⋅ min−1 ⋅ 106 cells−1 and 1.5 ± 0.25 nmol ⋅ min−1 ⋅ 106 cells−1, respectively) were several-fold greater than rates of ⋅NO generation by cytokine-activated macrophages (0.1–0.2 nmol ⋅ min−1 ⋅ 106 cells−1) and LA-dependent ⋅NO consumption by primary porcine monocytes inhibited ⋅NO activation of soluble guanylate cyclase. These data indicate that catalytic ⋅NO consumption by 12/15-LOX modulates monocyte ⋅NO signaling and suggest that LOXs may contribute to vascular dysfunction not only by the bioactivity of their lipid products, but also by serving as catalytic sinks for ⋅NO in the vasculature.
