Anti-inflammatory Properties of Cytochrome P450 Epoxygenase-Derived Eicosanoids

Koichi Node, 1 Yuqing Huo, 2 Xiulu Ruan, 1 Baichun Yang, 3 Martin Spiecker, 1 Klaus Ley, 2 Darryl C. Zeldin, 3 James K. Liao 1*

The epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are products of cytochrome P450 epoxygenases that have vasodilatory properties similar to that of endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor. The cytochrome P450 isoform CYP2J2 was cloned and identified as a potential source of EETs in human endothelial cells. Physiological concentrations of EETs or overexpression of CYP2J2 decreased cytokine-induced endothelial cell adhesion molecule expression, and EETs prevented leukocyte adhesion to the vascular wall by a mechanism involving inhibition of transcription factor NF-kappa B and Ikappa B kinase. The inhibitory effects of EETs were independent of their membrane-hyperpolarizing effects, suggesting that these molecules play an important nonvasodilatory role in vascular inflammation.
