Regulation of inflammation in cancer by eicosanoids

Abstract: Inflammation in the tumour microenvironment is now recognized as one of the hallmarks of cancer. Endogenously produced lipid autacoids, locally acting small molecule lipid mediators, play a central role in inflammation and tissue homeostasis, and have recently been implicated in cancer. A well-studied group of autacoid mediators that are the products of arachidonic acid metabolism include: the prostaglandins, leukotrienes, lipoxins and cytochrome P450 (CYP) derived bioactive products. These lipid mediators are… Show more

“…There is, however, another prominent enzymatic pathway for which arachidonic acid is the substrate: the cytochrome P450 (CYP) system (2). This eicosanoid pathway consists of two main branches: ω-hydroxylases, which convert arachidonic acid into hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids, and epoxygenases, which convert it to epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) (4,5). Although the COX-and LOX-derived eicosanoids have been intensely studied in tissue regeneration (6,7), the investigation of CYP-derived eicosanoids has primarily focused on inflammation and cardiovascular functions (3).…”

“…This marginal MCC deficiency ROS interactome suggests chronic activation of inflammatory and immune signalling responses. Chronic activated of pro-inflammatory signalling has been associated with compromised cellular membrane integrity and the development of cancer [69,73] Both the complete set of 1277 and the subset of 48 HuChrX associated differentially expressed transcript IDs indicated increased inflammatory signalling responses and impaired cellular maintenance and repair activity that could imply compromised membrane integrity (Figure 4a; Supplementary Table 6). It is important to note that persistent oxidative stress in addition to an already compromised membrane repair capacity could severely affect membrane integrity.…”

“…However, the induction of GGT suggests elevated levels of leukotriene D4 and the suppression of PTGES3 suggests elevated levels of prostacyclin which both have strong pro-inflammatory properties [93]. Imbalances in eicosanoid metabolism signalling have been detected in individuals with a weak tolerance to environmental factors and susceptibility to environmental stressors that often result in asthma [94][95][96][97], allergy, eczema [98][99][100], arthritis [81] as well as the development of cancer [73] and might also play a role in the development of non-specific symptoms of marginal MCC deficiency. Therefore, life-long monitoring of ROS levels of individuals with MCC deficiency along with the administration of anti-oxidants to prevent and manage deleterious secondary signalling responses may be beneficial as previously proposed (Figure 3) [55,56,60,64,65,101].…”

“…In contrast, COX-2 may be induced by a series of pro-inflammatory stimuli and its role in the progress of inflammation, fever and pain has been known [12]. Furthermore, COX-2 has been targeted in many cancers including: colon cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, gliomas, prostate cancer, esophageal carcinoma, pancreatic cancer, lung carcinoma, gastric carcinoma, ovarian cancer, Kaposi's sarcoma and melanoma [13].…”

“…[14,15]. 12-HETE is implicated in regulation of platelet aggregation, angiogenesis, as well as the progression of several human diseases like various cancers, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis [13,16,17]. Also, 12-HETE is known to take part in the metastatic cascade as a crucial intracellular signalling molecule which activates protein kinase C and mediates the biological functions of growth factors and cytokines.…”
