Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids function as selective, endogenous antagonists of native thromboxane receptors: identification of a novel mechanism of vasodilation Behm DJ; Ogbonna A; Wu C; Burns-Kurtis CL; Douglas SAJ Pharmacol Exp Ther 2009[Jan]; 328 (1): 231-9Epoxy- and dihydroxy-eicosatrienoic acids (EETs and DHETs) are vasoactive cytochrome P450 metabolites of arachidonic acid. Interestingly, however, the mechanism(s) by which EETs/DHETs mediate smooth muscle relaxation remains unclear. In contrast to previous reports, where dilation was purportedly large-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) (BK(Ca)) and/or transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 4 (TRPV4) channel-mediated, 14,15-EET-induced vasodilation [reversal of contractile tone established with the thromboxane receptor (TP) agonist 15-hydroxy-11 alpha,9 alpha-(epoxymethano)prosta-5,13-dienoic acid (U-46619)] was unaltered in BK(Ca) and TRPV4 knockout mouse isolated aortae compared with wild-type controls, indicating a significant BK(Ca)/TRPV4-resistant mechanism. Whereas all EET and DHET regioisomers reversed U-46619 contraction in rat aortae and mouse mesenteric resistance arteries, these eicosanoids failed to alter phenylephrine-induced contraction, suggesting that they mediated dilation via a "TP-selective" mechanism. Competitive TP antagonism was also observed in nonvascular tissue, including rat fundus and tertiary bronchus, indicating that the effect is not specific to blood vessels. Such effects were TP-selective because 14,15-EET failed to inhibit "non-TP" prostanoid receptor-mediated function in multiple cell/tissue-based assays (K(b) > 10 microM). In accordance, 14,15-EET inhibited specific [(3)H]7-(3-((2-((phenylamino)carbonyl)hydrazino)-methyl)-7-oxabicyclo(2.2.1)hept-2-yl)-5-heptenoic acid (SQ-29548) binding to human recombinant TP receptor, with a K(i) value of 3.2 microM, and it showed weaker affinity for non-TP prostanoid receptors, including DP, FP, EP(1-4), and IP receptors (K(i) values of 6.1, 5.3, 42.6, 19.7, 13.2, 20.2, and >25 microM, respectively) and no appreciable affinity (K(i) values >10 microM) for a diverse array of pharmacologically distinct receptors, including the leukotriene receptors Cys-LT(1/2) and BLT(1). As such, EETs/DHETs represent a unique class of "endogenous" G protein-coupled receptor competitive antagonists, inducing vasodilation via direct TP inhibition. Thus, EETs/DHETs represent novel autoregulatory agents, directly modulating the actions of cyclooxygenase-derived eicosanoids following arachidonic acid mobilization.|15-Hydroxy-11 alpha,9 alpha-(epoxymethano)prosta-5,13-dienoic Acid/pharmacology[MESH]|8,11,14-Eicosatrienoic Acid/analogs & derivatives/*pharmacology[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Aorta, Thoracic/drug effects/*physiology[MESH]|Arachidonic Acids/pharmacology[MESH]|Guinea Pigs[MESH]|Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acids/pharmacology[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Mice[MESH]|Mice, Knockout[MESH]|Rats[MESH]|Rats, Sprague-Dawley[MESH]|Receptors, Thromboxane/agonists/drug effects/physiology[MESH]|Splanchnic Circulation/drug effects/physiology[MESH]|TRPV Cation Channels/deficiency/genetics/physiology[MESH]|Trachea/drug effects/physiology[MESH]|Vascular Resistance/drug effects[MESH]|Vasoconstriction/drug effects/physiology[MESH]|Vasodilation/drug effects/*physiology[MESH] |
