Metabolism of Unsaturated Fatty Acids & Eicosanoids

Eicosanoids Prostaglandins Thromboxanes Leukotrienes Lipoxins

Prostaglandins Inflammation Produce pain induce sleep involved in the regulation of blood coagulation Reproduction

Leukotrienes Muscle contractant Chemotactic properties Important in allergic reactions and inflammation

Double bonds can not be introduced beyond the Δ9 position Essential fatty acids Linoleic and α-linolenic acids arachidonic acid can be formed from linoleic acid Double bonds can not be introduced beyond the Δ9 position

Structure of some unsaturated fatty acids

Monounsaturated fatty Acids are synthesized by Δ9 desaturase system SYNTHESIS OF POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS DESATURASE ELONGASE The desaturation and chain elongation system is greatly diminished in the starving state

Essential fatty acids often in the 2 position of phospholipids structural integrity of the mitochondrial membrane

Conversion of linoleate to arachidonate

In essential fatty acid deficiency Nonessential polyenoic acids of the ω9 family replace the essential fatty acids in phospholipids The triene:tetraene ratio in plasma lipids Trans Fatty Acids Are Implicated in Various Disorders Trans fatty acids compete with essential fatty acids they are structurally similar to saturated fatty acids promotion of hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis

EICOSANOIDS FORMED FROM C20 POLYUNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS act as local hormones Functioning through G-protein-linked receptors C20 eicosanoic acids derived from Essential fatty acids Directly from dietary arachidonate and eicosapentaenoate by the Cyclooxygenase pathway PROSTANOID SYNTHESIS Lipoxygenase pathway

EICOSANOIDS Each cell type produces only one type of prostanoid

Essential Fatty Acids Physiologic Effects Prostaglandin Synthesis Membrane formation

Conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins and thromboxanes of series 2.

LEUKOTRIENES & LIPOXINS By LIPOXYGENASE PATHWAY The leukotrienes a family of conjugated trienes from eicosanoic acids Leukocytes, mastocytoma cells, platelets, and macrophages Lipoxins a family of conjugated tetraenes arising in leukocytes

Conversion of arachidonic acid to leukotrienes and lipoxins of series 4.

CLINICAL ASPECTS Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency Symptoms Skin Lesions & Impairment of Lipid Transport Abnormal Metabolism of Essential Fatty Acids Cystic fibrosis Cirrhosis and alcoholism Zellweger’s syndrome

Thromboxanes Prostacyclins (PGI2) Prostaglandins Vasoconstriction Contraction of smooth muscle Platelet aggregation Prostacyclins (PGI2) Inhibitors of platelet aggregation Prostaglandins increase cAMP in platelets, thyroid, corpus luteum,fetal bone, adenohypophysis, and lung Reduce cAMP in renal tubule cells and adipose tissue

Leukotrienes & Lipoxins Potent regulators of many disease processes Slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis (SRS-A) Mixture of leukotrienes C4, D4, and E4 Constrictor of the bronchial airway musculature together with leukotriene B4 also cause vascular permeability Attraction and activation of leukocytes Leukotrienes are vasoactive Lipoxins Vasoactive and immunoregulatory function

Higher animals have Δ4, Δ5, Δ6, and Δ9 desaturases but cannot insert new double bonds beyond the 9 position of fatty acids. Thus, the essential fatty acids linoleic (ω6) and α-linolenic (ω3) must be obtained from the diet.

Eicosanoids Derived from C20 (eicosanoic) fatty acids Comprise Synthesized from the essential fatty acids Comprise Prostaglandins Thromboxanes Leukotrienes Lipoxins Important groups of physiologically and pharmacologically active compounds.
