Propriétés anti-inflammatoires des oxylipines dérivées du DHA

Flash Posters : Axe 2National audienceWhereas the anti-inflammatory properties and mechanisms of action of long chain. 3 PUFAs have been abundantly investigated, research gaps remain regarding the respective contribution and mechanisms of action of their oxygenated metabolites collectively known as oxylipins. A dose-dependent and comparative study was conducted using human primary macrophages. The aim was to compare the anti-inflammatory activity of two types of DHA- derived oxylipins including protectins (NPD1 and PDX), formed through lipoxygenase pathway and the neuroprostanes (14-A4t- and 4-F4t-NeuroP) formed through free-radical mediated oxygenation and suspected to be new anti-inflammatory mediators. Considering the potential ability of these lipid mediators to bind PPARs and knowing the central role of PPARs in the regulation of macrophage inflammatory response, transactivation assays was performed to compare the ability of protectins and neuroprostanes to activate PPARs. All molecules significantly reduced LPS-stimulated expression of cytokines but not at the same doses. Notably, NPD1 showed the most effect at 0.1 µM (IL-6:-14.9%, p<0.05 and TNF-α:-26.7%, p<0.05) while the other oxylipins had greater effects at 10 µM, with the strongest result obtained with the cyclopentenone neuroprostane 14-A4t-NeuroP (IL-6:-49.8%, p<0.001 and TNF-α:-40.8%, p
