Abstract
Acylcarnitines are important markers in metabolic studies of many diseases, including metabolic, cardiovascular, and neurological disorders. We reviewed analytical methods for analyzing acylcarnitines with respect to the available molecular structural information, the technical limitations of legacy methods, and the potential of new mass spectrometry-based techniques to provide new information on metabolite structure. We summarized the nomenclature of acylcarnitines based on historical common names and common abbreviations, and we propose the use of systematic abbreviations derived from the shorthand notation for lipid structures. The transition to systematic nomenclature will facilitate acylcarnitine annotation, reporting, and standardization in metabolomics. We have reviewed the metabolic origins of acylcarnitines important for the biological interpretation of human metabolomic profiles. We identified neglected isomers of acylcarnitines and summarized the metabolic pathways involved in the synthesis and degradation of acylcarnitines, including branched-chain lipids and amino acids. We reviewed the primary literature, mapped the metabolic transformations of acyl-CoAs to acylcarnitines, and created a freely available WikiPathway WP5423 to help researchers navigate the acylcarnitine field. The WikiPathway was curated, metabolites and metabolic reactions were annotated, and references were included. We also provide a table for conversion between common names and abbreviations and systematic abbreviations linked to the LIPID MAPS or Human Metabolome Database.

Abstract
Oxylipins are potent lipid mediators with increasing interest in clinical research. They are usually measured in systemic circulation and can provide a wealth of information regarding key biological processes such as inflammation, vascular tone, or blood coagulation. Although procedures still require harmonization to generate comparable oxylipin datasets, performing comprehensive profiling of circulating oxylipins in large studies is feasible and no longer restricted by technical barriers. However, it is essential to improve and facilitate the biological interpretation of complex oxylipin profiles to truly leverage their potential in clinical research. This requires regular updating of our knowledge about the metabolism and the mode of action of oxylipins, and consideration of all factors that may influence circulating oxylipin profiles independently of the studied disease or condition. This review aims to provide the readers with updated and necessary information regarding oxylipin metabolism, their different forms in systemic circulation, the current limitations in deducing oxylipin cellular effects from in vitro bioactivity studies, the biological and technical confounding factors needed to consider for a proper interpretation of oxylipin profiles.

Abstract
Oxylipins are potent biological mediators requiring strict control, but how they are removed en masse during infection and inflammation is unknown. Here we show that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) dynamically enhances oxylipin removal via mitochondrial β-oxidation. Specifically, genetic or pharmacological targeting of carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1 (CPT1), a mitochondrial importer of fatty acids, reveal that many oxylipins are removed by this protein during inflammation in vitro and in vivo. Using stable isotope-tracing lipidomics, we find secretion-reuptake recycling for 12-HETE and its intermediate metabolites. Meanwhile, oxylipin β-oxidation is uncoupled from oxidative phosphorylation, thus not contributing to energy generation. Testing for genetic control checkpoints, transcriptional interrogation of human neonatal sepsis finds upregulation of many genes involved in mitochondrial removal of long-chain fatty acyls, such as ACSL1,3,4, ACADVL, CPT1B, CPT2 and HADHB. Also, ACSL1/Acsl1 upregulation is consistently observed following the treatment of human/murine macrophages with LPS and IFN-γ. Last, dampening oxylipin levels by β-oxidation is suggested to impact on their regulation of leukocyte functions. In summary, we propose mitochondrial β-oxidation as a regulatory metabolic checkpoint for oxylipins during inflammation.

Abstract
Fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) represent a complex lipid class that contains both signaling mediators and structural components of lipid biofilms in humans. The majority of endogenous FAHFAs share a common chemical architecture, characterized by an estolide bond that links the hydroxy fatty acid (HFA) backbone and the fatty acid (FA). Two structurally and functionally distinct FAHFA superfamilies are recognized based on the position of the estolide bond: omega-FAHFAs and in-chain branched FAHFAs. The existing variety of possible HFAs and FAs combined with the position of the estolide bond generates a vast quantity of unique structures identified in FAHFA families. In this review, we discuss the anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory effects of branched FAHFAs and the role of omega-FAHFA-derived lipids as surfactants in the tear film lipid layer and dry eye disease. To emphasize potential pharmacological targets, we recapitulate the biosynthesis of the HFA backbone within the superfamilies together with the degradation pathways and the FAHFA regioisomer distribution in human and mouse adipose tissue. We propose a theoretical involvement of cytochrome P450 enzymes in the generation and degradation of saturated HFA backbones and present an overview of small-molecule inhibitors used in FAHFA research. The FAHFA lipid class is huge and largely unexplored. Besides the unknown biological effects of individual FAHFAs, also the enigmatic enzymatic machinery behind their synthesis could provide new therapeutic approaches for inflammatory metabolic or eye diseases. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of (FA)HFA synthesis at the molecular level should be the next step in FAHFA research.

Functional fluxolipidomics of polyunsaturated fatty acids and oxygenated metabolites in the blood vessel compartment. Prog Lipid Res 2015; 60:41-9.

Abstract
Synthesis of bioactive oxygenated metabolites of polyunsaturated fatty acids and their degradation or transformation products are made through multiple enzyme processes. The kinetics of the enzymes responsible for the different steps are known to be quite diverse, although not precisely determined. The location of the metabolites biosynthesis is diverse as well. Also, the biological effects of the primary and secondary products, and their biological life span are often completely different. Consequently, phenotypes of cells in response to these bioactive lipid mediators must then depend on their concentrations at a given time. This demands a fluxolipidomics approach that can be defined as a mediator lipidomics, with all measurements done as a function of time and biological compartments. This review points out what is known, even qualitatively, in the blood vascular compartment for arachidonic acid metabolites and number of other metabolites from polyunsaturated fatty acids of nutritional value. The functional consequences are especially taken into consideration.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are cellular compartments primarily associated with lipid metabolism. Most cell types, including nervous system cells, harbor several hundred of these organelles. The importance of peroxisomes for central nervous system white matter is evidenced by a variety of human peroxisomal disorders with neurological impairment frequently involving the white matter. Moreover, the most frequent childhood white matter disease, X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, is a peroxisomal disorder. During the past decade advances in imaging techniques have enabled the identification of peroxisomes within the myelin sheath, especially close to nodes of Ranvier. Although the function of myelin peroxisomes is not solved yet on molecular level, recently acquired knowledge suggests a central role for these organelles in axo-glial metabolism. This review focuses on the biology of myelin peroxisomes as well as on the pathology of myelin and myelinated axons that is observed as a consequence of partial or complete peroxisomal dysfunction in the brain.

Abstract
Background: Peroxisomes are organelles in eukaryotic cells with multiple functions including the detoxification of reactive oxygen species, plasmalogen synthesis and β-oxidation of fatty acids. Recent evidence has implicated peroxisomal dysfunction in models of multiple sclerosis (MS) disease progression. Objectives: Our aims were to determine whether there are changes in peroxisomes in MS grey matter (GM) compared to control GM. Methods: We analysed cases of MS and control GM immunocytochemically to assess peroxisomal membrane protein (PMP70) and neuronal proteins. We examined the expression of ABCD3 (the gene that encodes PMP70) in MS and control GM. Analyses of very long chain fatty acid (VLCFA) levels in GM were performed. Results: PMP70 immunolabelling of neuronal somata was significantly lower in MS GM compared to control. Calibration of ABCD3 gene expression with reference to glyceraldehyde 3-phsophate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) revealed overall decreases in expression in MS compared to controls. Mean PMP70 counts in involved MS GM negatively correlated to disease duration. Elevations in C26:0 (hexacosanoic acid) were found in MS GM. Conclusions: Collectively, these observations provide evidence that there is an overall reduction in peroxisomal gene expression and peroxisomal proteins in GM neurons in MS. Changes in peroxisomal function may contribute to neuronal dysfunction and degeneration in MS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elevated urine 11-dehydro TXB(2), an indicator of persistent thromboxane generation in aspirin-treated patients, correlates with adverse cardiovascular outcome and has recently been identified as an independent risk factor for vein graft thrombosis after cardiac bypass surgery in the Reduction in Graft Occlusion Rates (RIGOR) study. The polyclonal antibody-based ELISA used to measure 11-dehydro TXB(2) in these previous studies is no longer clinically available and has been supplanted by a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared second-generation monoclonal antibody-based ELISA. OBJECTIVES To compare the laboratory and clinical performance of the first- and second-generation assays in a well-defined study population. METHODS 11-dehydro TXB(2) was quantified in 451 urine samples from 229 Reduction in Graft Occlusion Rates (RIGOR) subjects using both ELISA. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) and spiking studies were used to investigate discordant assay results. The association of 11-dehydro TXB(2) to clinical outcome was assessed for each assay using multivariate modeling. RESULTS Median 11-dehydro TXB(2) levels were higher by monoclonal antibody- compared with polyclonal antibody-based ELISA (856 vs. 399 pg mg(-1) creatinine, P < 0.000001), with the latter providing values similar to UPLC-MS/MS. This discrepancy was predominantly as a result of cross-reactivity of the monoclonal antibody with 11-dehydro-2,3-dinor TXB(2), a thromboxane metabolite present in a similar concentration but with a poor direct correlation with 11-dehydro TXB(2). In contrast to the first-generation ELISA, 11-dehydro TXB(2) measured by the monoclonal antibody-based ELISA failed to associate with the risk of vein graft occlusion. CONCLUSION Quantification of urine 11-dehydro TXB(2) by monoclonal antibody-based ELISA was confounded by interference from 11-dehydro-2,3-dinor TXB(2) which reduced the accuracy and clinical utility of this second-generation assay.

Abstract
Prostacyclin (PGI(2)) is a member of the prostanoid group of eicosanoids that regulate homeostasis, hemostasis, smooth muscle function and inflammation. Prostanoids are derived from arachidonic acid by the sequential actions of phospholipase A(2), cyclooxygenase (COX), and specific prostaglandin (PG) synthases. There are two major COX enzymes, COX1 and COX2, that differ in structure, tissue distribution, subcellular localization, and function. COX1 is largely constitutively expressed, whereas COX2 is induced at sites of inflammation and vascular injury. PGI(2) is produced by endothelial cells and influences many cardiovascular processes. PGI(2) acts mainly on the prostacyclin (IP) receptor, but because of receptor homology, PGI(2) analogs such as iloprost may act on other prostanoid receptors with variable affinities. PGI(2)/IP interaction stimulates G protein-coupled increase in cAMP and protein kinase A, resulting in decreased [Ca(2+)](i), and could also cause inhibition of Rho kinase, leading to vascular smooth muscle relaxation. In addition, PGI(2) intracrine signaling may target nuclear peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors and regulate gene transcription. PGI(2) counteracts the vasoconstrictor and platelet aggregation effects of thromboxane A(2) (TXA(2)), and both prostanoids create an important balance in cardiovascular homeostasis. The PGI(2)/TXA(2) balance is particularly critical in the regulation of maternal and fetal vascular function during pregnancy and in the newborn. A decrease in PGI(2)/TXA(2) ratio in the maternal, fetal, and neonatal circulation may contribute to preeclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction, and persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), respectively. On the other hand, increased PGI(2) activity may contribute to patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and intraventricular hemorrhage in premature newborns. These observations have raised interest in the use of COX inhibitors and PGI(2) analogs in the management of pregnancy-associated and neonatal vascular disorders. The use of aspirin to decrease TXA(2) synthesis has shown little benefit in preeclampsia, whereas indomethacin and ibuprofen are used effectively to close PDA in the premature newborn. PGI(2) analogs have been used effectively in primary pulmonary hypertension in adults and have shown promise in PPHN. Careful examination of PGI(2) metabolism and the complex interplay with other prostanoids will help design specific modulators of the PGI(2)-dependent pathways for the management of pregnancy-related and neonatal vascular disorders.

Abstract
This short review takes into consideration the status of lipidomics as issued from almost a decade of development. Because of the huge number of molecular species analyzed, there is a trend in subdividing lipidomics according to subdomains, in particular relating to the function of molecules. It is also pointed out that lipid imaging without the use of exogenous probes will help making relationships between molecular structures and the topography of lipid assemblies, especially in cellular compartments. Finally, a fluxomics approach is proposed for lipid molecular species, both in terms of compartments and biochemical metabolism. The example of fluxolipidomics of essential fatty acids toward their enzyme-dependent oxygenated metabolites and further toward their degradation products is developed.

Abstract
Tissue availability of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) depends on dietary intake and metabolic turnover and has a major impact on human health. Strong associations between variants in the human genes fatty acid desaturase 1 (FADS1, encoding Delta-5 desaturase) and fatty acid desaturase 2 (FADS2, encoding Delta-6 desaturase) and blood levels of PUFAs and long-chain PUFAs (LC-PUFAs) have been reported. The most significant associations and the highest proportion of genetically explained variability (28%) were found for arachidonic acid (20:4n-6), the main precursor of eicosanoids. Subjects carrying the minor alleles of several single nucleotide polymorphisms had a lower prevalence of allergic rhinitis and atopic eczema. Therefore, blood levels of PUFAs and LC-PUFAs are influenced not only by diet, but to a large extent also by genetic variants common in a European population. These findings have been replicated in independent populations. Depending on genetic variants, requirements of dietary PUFA or LC-PUFA intakes to achieve comparable biological effects may differ. We recommend including analyses of FADS1 and FADS2 polymorphism in future cohort and intervention studies addressing biological effects of PUFAs and LC-PUFAs.

Abstract
Eicosanoids have been implicated in a vast number of devastating inflammatory conditions, including arthritis, atherosclerosis, pain, and cancer. Currently, over a hundred different eicosanoids have been identified, with many having potent bioactive signaling capacity. These lipid metabolites are synthesized de novo by at least 50 unique enzymes, many of which have been cloned and characterized. Due to the extensive characterization of eicosanoid biosynthetic pathways, this field provides a unique framework for integrating genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics toward the investigation of disease pathology. To facilitate a concerted systems biology approach, this review outlines the proteins implicated in eicosanoid biosynthesis and signaling in human, mouse, and rat. Applications of the extensive genomic and lipidomic research to date illustrate the questions in eicosanoid signaling that could be uniquely addressed by a thorough analysis of the entire eicosanoid proteome.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Although multiple sclerosis is considered the prototype of a primary autoimmune disease in the central nervous system, there is emerging evidence that primary oligodendrocyte dysfunctions can suffice to trigger a secondary immune response in the nervous system. This short review focuses on the possible primary role of oligodendrocytes in axon loss and inflammatory demyelination. RECENT FINDINGS The analysis of natural and engineered mouse mutants has provided unexpected insight into oligodendrocyte function beyond that of axonal myelination for rapid impulse propagation. Specifically, mutations in some genes thought to be required for myelin assembly revealed an additional role of oligodendrocytes in supporting long-term axonal function and survival. Other mutations have been reported that cause both central nervous system demyelination and neuroinflammation, with pathological features known from human leukodystrophy patients. In human multiple sclerosis, demyelination leads invariably to axon loss, but the underling pathomechanisms may not be restricted to that of a primary immune-mediated disorder. SUMMARY Collectively, experimental and pathological findings point to a primary role of myelinating glia in long-term axonal support and suggest that defects of lipid metabolism in oligodendrocytes contribute to inflammatory myelin diseases.

Abstract
Krabbe disease is a neuroinflammatory disorder in which galactosylsphingosine (psychosine) accumulates in nervous tissue. To gain insight into whether the psychosine-induced effects in nervous tissue extend to peripheral organs, we investigated the expression of cytokines and their effects on peroxisomal structure/functions in twitcher mouse liver (animal model of Krabbe disease). Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated TNF-alpha and IL-6 expression, which was confirmed by mRNAs quantitation. Despite the presence of TNF-alpha, lipidomic analysis did not indicate a significant decrease in sphingomyelin or an increase in ceramide fractions. Ultrastructural analysis of catalase-dependent staining of liver sections showed reduced reactivity without significant changes in peroxisomal contents. This observation was confirmed by assaying catalase activity and quantitation of its mRNA, both of which were found significantly decreased in twitcher mouse liver. Western blot analysis demonstrated a generalized reduction of peroxisomal matrix and membrane proteins. These observations indicate that twitcher mouse pathobiology extends to the liver, where psychosine-induced TNF-alpha and IL-6 compromise peroxisomal structure and functions.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are pleiomorphic, metabolically plastic organelles. Their essentially oxidative function led to the adoption of the name 'peroxisome'. The dynamic and diverse nature of peroxisome metabolism has led to the realisation that peroxisomes are an important source of signalling molecules that can function to integrate cellular activity and multicellular development. In plants defence against predators and a hostile environment is of necessity a metabolic and developmental response--a plant has no place to hide. Mutant screens are implicating peroxisomes in disease resistance and signalling in response to light. Characterisation of mutants disrupted in peroxisomal beta-oxidation has led to a growing appreciation of the importance of this pathway in the production of jasmonic acid, conversion of indole butyric acid to indole acetic acid and possibly in the production of other signalling molecules. Likewise the role of peroxisomes in the production and detoxification of reactive oxygen, and possibly reactive nitrogen species and changes in redox status, suggests considerable scope for peroxisomes to contribute to perception and response to a wide range of biotic and abiotic stresses. Whereas the peroxisome is the sole site of beta-oxidation in plants, the production and detoxification of ROS in many cell compartments makes the specific contribution of the peroxisome much more difficult to establish. However progress in identifying peroxisome specific isoforms of enzymes associated with ROS metabolism should allow a more definitive assessment of these contributions in the future.

Abstract
Psychosine (galactosylsphingosine) accumulates in the brain of Krabbe disease (KD) patients as well as twitcher mice, a murine model of KD, resulting in loss of oligodendrocytes and myelin. This study documents progressive loss of peroxisomal proteins/functions and induction of expression of inflammatory cytokine TNF-alpha in twitcher brain. The observed decrease in peroxisomal proteins was accompanied by decreased level of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha), one of the transcription factors required for expression of peroxisomal protein genes. The role of psychosine in down-regulation of PPAR-alpha activity was further supported by decreased PPAR-alpha mediated PPRE transcriptional activity in cells transfected with PPAR-alpha and PPRE reporters. The psychosine-induced down-regulation of PPAR activity and cell death was attenuated by sPLA2 inhibitor. Therefore, this study provides the first evidence of peroxisomal abnormality in a lysosomal disorder, suggesting that such dysfunction of peroxisomes may play a role in the pathogenesis of Krabbe disease.

Abstract
Peroxisomes perform a range of different functions, dependent upon organism, tissue type, developmental stage or environmental conditions, many of which are connected with lipid metabolism. This review summarises recent research on ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters of the peroxisomal membrane (ABC subfamily D) and their roles in plants, fungi and animals. Analysis of mutants has revealed that peroxisomal ABC transporters play key roles in specific metabolic and developmental functions in different organisms. A common function is import of substrates for beta-oxidation but much remains to be determined concerning transport substrates and mechanisms which appear to differ significantly between phyla.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are ubiquitous subcellular organelles and abnormality in their biogenesis and specific gene defects leads to fatal demyelinating disorders. We report that neuroinflammatory disease in brain of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) rats decreased the peroxisomal functions. Degradation of very long chain fatty acids decreased by 47% and resulted in its accumulation (C26:0, 40%). Decreased activity (66% of control) of dihydroxyacetonephosphate acyltransferase (DHAP-AT), first enzyme in plasmalogens biosynthesis, resulted in decreased levels of plasmalogens (16-30%). Catalase activity, a peroxisomal enzyme, was also reduced (37%). Gene microarray analysis of EAE spinal cord showed significant decrease in transcripts encoding peroxisomal proteins including catalase (folds 3.2; p<0.001) and DHAP-AT (folds 2.6; p<0.001). These changes were confirmed by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis, suggesting that decrease of peroxisomal functions in the central nervous system will have negative consequences for myelin integrity and repair because these lipids are major constituents of myelin. However, lovastatin (a cholesterol lowering and anti-inflammatory drug) administered during EAE induction provided protection against loss/down-regulation of peroxisomal functions. Attenuation of induction of neuroinflammatory mediators by statins in cultured brain cells [J. Clin. Invest. 100 (1997) 2671-2679], and in central nervous system of EAE animals and thus the EAE disease [J. Neurosci. Res. 66 (2001) 155-162] and the studies described here indicate that inflammatory mediators have a marked negative effect on peroxisomal functions and thus on myelin assembly and that these effects can be prevented by treatment with statins. These observations are of importance because statins are presently being tested as therapeutic agents against a number of neuroinflammatory demyelinating diseases.

Abstract
Prostanoids, i.e. prostaglandins and thromboxane, regulate liver-specific functions both in homeostasis and during defense reactions. For example, prostanoids are released from Kupffer cells, the resident liver macrophages, in response to the inflammatory mediator anaphylatoxin C5a, and mediate an enhanced glucose output from hepatocytes as energy supply. In perfused rat livers, the thromboxane receptor antagonist daltroban enhanced C5a-induced prostanoid overflow and reduced glucose output. It was the aim of this study to elucidate whether daltroban interfered with prostanoid release from Kupffer cells or prostanoid clearance by hepatocytes, and/or whether it directly influenced prostanoid-dependent glucose metabolism in these cells. In perfused rat livers, daltroban enhanced prostaglandin (PG)D(2) overflow not only after infusion of C5a (15-fold), but also after PGD(2) (10-fold). Neither daltroban nor another receptor antagonist, ifetroban, or the thromboxane synthase inhibitor furegrelate enhanced prostanoid release from Kupffer cells. In contrast, all inhibitors reduced clearance, i.e. uptake and degradation, of PGD(2) by hepatocytes: within 5 min uptake of 1 nmol/L PGD(2) was reduced from 43+/-5 fmol (controls) to 22+/-6 fmol (daltroban), 24+/-6 fmol (ifetroban) and 21+/-6 fmol (furegrelate). PGD(2) in the medium was reduced to 39+/-7% in the controls, but remained at 93+/-9%, 93+/-11% and 60+/-3% in the presence of the inhibitors. PGD(2)-dependent glucose output in the perfused liver or activation of glycogen phosphorylase in isolated hepatocytes remained unaffected by daltroban. These data clearly demonstrate that the thromboxane-inhibitors reduced PGD(2) clearance by hepatocytes, presumably by inhibition of prostanoid transport into the cells. In contrast, they did not interfere with PGD(2)-dependent glucose metabolism, suggesting an independent mechanism for the inhibition of glucose output from the liver.

Abstract
Acyl-CoA thioesterases are a group of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free fatty acid and coenzyme A (CoASH), providing the potential to regulate intracellular levels of acyl-CoAs, free fatty acids and CoASH. These enzymes are localized in almost all cellular compartments such as endoplasmic reticulum, cytosol, mitochondria and peroxisomes. Acyl-CoA thioesterases are highly regulated by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), and other nutritional factors, which has led to the conclusion that they are involved in lipid metabolism. Although the physiological functions for these enzymes are not yet fully understood, recent cloning and more in-depth characterization of acyl-CoA thioesterases has assisted in discussion of putative functions for specific enzymes. Here we review the acyl-CoA thioesterases characterized to date and also address the diverse putative functions for these enzymes, such as in ligand supply for nuclear receptors, and regulation and termination of fatty acid oxidation in mitochondria and peroxisomes.

Abstract
Peroxisomes function in beta-oxidation of very long and long-chain fatty acids, dicarboxylic fatty acids, bile acid intermediates, prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxanes, pristanic acid, and xenobiotic carboxylic acids. These lipids are mainly chain-shortened for excretion as the carboxylic acids or transported to mitochondria for further metabolism. Several of these carboxylic acids are slowly oxidized and may therefore sequester coenzyme A (CoASH). To prevent CoASH sequestration and to facilitate excretion of chain-shortened carboxylic acids, acyl-CoA thioesterases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs to the free acid and CoASH, may play important roles. Here we have cloned and characterized a peroxisomal acyl-CoA thioesterase from mouse, named PTE-2 (peroxisomal acyl-CoA thioesterase 2). PTE-2 is ubiquitously expressed and induced at mRNA level by treatment with the peroxisome proliferator WY-14,643 and fasting. Induction seen by these treatments was dependent on the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha. Recombinant PTE-2 showed a broad chain length specificity with acyl-CoAs from short- and medium-, to long-chain acyl-CoAs, and other substrates including trihydroxycoprostanoyl-CoA, hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA, and branched chain acyl-CoAs, all of which are present in peroxisomes. Highest activities were found with the CoA esters of primary bile acids choloyl-CoA and chenodeoxycholoyl-CoA as substrates. PTE-2 activity is inhibited by free CoASH, suggesting that intraperoxisomal free CoASH levels regulate the activity of this enzyme. The acyl-CoA specificity of recombinant PTE-2 closely resembles that of purified mouse liver peroxisomes, suggesting that PTE-2 is the major acyl-CoA thioesterase in peroxisomes. Addition of recombinant PTE-2 to incubations containing isolated mouse liver peroxisomes strongly inhibited bile acid-CoA:amino acid N-acyltransferase activity, suggesting that this thioesterase can interfere with CoASH-dependent pathways. We propose that PTE-2 functions as a key regulator of peroxisomal lipid metabolism.

Abstract
Primary cultures of bovine aortic endothelial cells were used at confluency to evaluate the effect of eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acids on the expression of both the constitutive and inducible isoforms of PGH synthase (PGHS), PGHS-1 and PGHS-2, respectively. After a 22 h period enrichment of cell lipid stores with each fatty acid, the expression of PGH synthase isoforms was measured by western blotting. EPA and DHA, but not oleate, significantly decreased the immunoreactive PGHS-1 and to a similar extent the corresponding mRNA, as measured by northern blotting. Studies on mRNA stability failed to show any difference between DHA-enriched and control cells, indicating that the decreased expression observed was likely from transcriptional origin. Under the enrichment conditions, EPA and DHA, but not oleate, moderately but significantly induced an oxidative stress as judged by malondialdehyde formation. Interestingly, hydrogen peroxide was able to mimic the effect of EPA and DHA in decreasing the expression of PGHS-1. On the other hand, the PMA-induced PGHS-2 expression could be potentiated by cell pre-enrichment with DHA, whereas hydrogen peroxide alone could induce such an expression. We conclude that the long chain n-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA may differently affect the expression of PGH synthase isoforms, possibly via an oxidative stress.

Abstract
Despite the fact that prostaglandins (PGs) have low intrinsic permeabilities across the plasma membrane, they must cross it twice: first upon release from the cytosol into the blood, and again upon cellular uptake prior to oxidation. Until recently, there were no cloned carriers that transported PGs. PGT is a broadly-expressed, 12-membrane-spanning domain integral membrane protein. When heterologously expressed in HeLa cells or Xenopus oocytes, it catalyzes the rapid, specific, and high-affinity uptake of PGE2, PGF2 alpha, PGD2, 8-iso-PGF2 alpha, and thromboxane B2. Functional studies indicate that PGT transports its substrate as the charged anion. The PGT substrate specificity and inhibitor profile match remarkably well with earlier in situ studies on the metabolic clearance of PGs by rat lung. Because PGT expression is especially high in this tissue, it is likely that PGT mediates the membrane step in PG clearance by the pulmonary circulation. Evidence is presented that PGT may play additional roles in other tissues and that there may be additional PG transporters yet to be identified molecularly.

Abstract
12-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) is one of the major metabolites formed from arachidonic acid in platelets. We have recently shown that the in vitro metabolism of 12-HETE by human leukocytes, with and without stimulation, is effectively inhibited by the addition of physiological concentrations of albumin, probably by sequestration of the compound. In the present paper, we have studied the in vivo metabolism of 12-HETE in the rabbit, using either [1-14C]- or [14C(U)]12-HETE. Distribution of radioactivity was followed in urine, plasma, and bile, as well as in a number of tissues. In most of the tissues examined, the hydrophilic radioactivity constituted more than 50% of the total radioactivity after 20 min. When the lipophilic fraction was analyzed, around 15% of the radioactivity was shown to be unesterified 12-HETE, and only a very minor part could be detected as metabolites. The dominating lipophilic compound in the circulation after i.v. administration of radiolabeled 12-HETE was at all time points (1-60 min.) the parent compound, as analyzed by HPTLC and HPLC. A comparison of the plasma metabolite profiles obtained when [1-14C]- and [14C(U)]12-HETE were used displayed almost identical patterns, thus indicating that beta-oxidized metabolites either were not formed or were rapidly removed from the circulation. The appearance of large amounts of water-soluble radioactivity with time supported the latter conclusion. Several minor metabolites were seen that chromatographed in the dihydroxy acid region as judged by HPLC and TLC. The major one of these compounds represented about 10% of the lipophilic plasma radioactivity after 60 min., while unmetabolized 12-HETE at this stage still represented about 30%. The metabolite had a polarity similar to 12,20-dihydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid; however, when chromatographed together, these two compounds separated, indicating a different structure of the metabolite. Our findings are in agreement with in vitro data concerning the protective effect of albumin on the metabolism of 12-HETE and is the first extensive metabolic study of 12-HETE in vivo covering all metabolic possibilities involving the carbon skeleton.

Abstract
1. After the oral administration of 5 mg/kg S-1452 to rat, the plasma levels of (+)-S-145 were similar between the male and female, but there were sex differences in the profiles of its beta-oxidized and hydroxylated metabolites in plasma. 2. beta-Oxidation of (+)-S-145 determined in vitro was slightly higher in the female than in the male, and agreed with the plasma levels of the beta-oxidized metabolites. 3. 5-Hydroxylation activities of (+)-S-145 and beta-oxidized metabolites by rat liver microsomes were significantly higher in the male than in the female, but marked sex differences were not observed in 6-hydroxylation activities. These results revealed that differences in monooxygenase activities directly account for the sex differences in the plasma level of 5-hydroxylated metabolites, and that the peroxisomal beta-oxidation enzyme system also affected the plasma level of 6-hydroxylated metabolites. 4. Biliary excretion was higher in the male than in the female, and quantitative identification of metabolites in bile indicated that this was based on the prominent excretion of taurine conjugates in the male rat. This conclusion was supported by the fact that taurine conjugation activity was higher in male liver homogenates than in the female.

Abstract
12-HETE, the major lipoxygenase end-product of platelets and macrophages, may be released in contact of bronchial epithelium in inflammatory diseases of the lung. We have studied the outcome of 12-HETE in presence of human bronchial epithelial cells (HBEC). When HBEC were incubated with [3H]12-HETE for 30 minutes, 27.5% of total radioactivity was found in HBEC and 72.5% in supernatants. Unesterified 12-HETE accounted for 22.4% of total radioactivity, 4.5% being recovered in phospholipids, preferentially in phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine. No incorporation in neutral lipids was detected. 72.9% of the incubated radioactivity was recovered in un identified metabolites. As 12-HETE has been shown to modulate the expression and production of various proteins, the consequence of the 12-HETE uptake on the release of GM-CSF and IL8 by HBEC was assessed. HBEC from control subjects were cultured for 24 hours with 12-HETE (10(-9) to 10(-7)M) in the presence or absence of TNF alpha. Detectable amounts of both cytokines were released in the supernatant in basal conditions at 24hr, and TNF alpha increased significantly the release of GM-CSF. 12-HETE at 10(-7)M weakly but significantly decreased the TNF-induced release of GM-CSF from HBEC. Thus the uptake of 12-HETE could affect the epithelial cell function in some situations.

Abstract
Urine extracts from children diagnosed with generalized peroxisomal disorders were screened by continuous flow-negative ion fast atom bombardment-mass spectrometry. In 45 of 60 children with generalized peroxisomal disorders, we observed one or more intense ions (m/z 489, 505, 461, and others) that are infrequently found in children with cholestatic liver disease or normal children. Compounds giving rise to these ions were isolated using reverse phase and anion exchange chromatography. After appropriate derivatization and/or methanolysis the compounds were analyzed using capillary gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The major compounds were found to be 12,13-dihydroxy-9-octadecenoic acid and 9,10-dihydroxy-12-octadecenoic acid, with one of the hydroxyl groups in glycosidic linkage with glucuronic acid. Minor compounds were glucuronic acid conjugates of 9,10-dihydroxy-octadecanoic acid, and 12,13-dihydroxy-6,9-, 15,16-dihydroxy-9,12-, and 9, 10-dihydroxy-12,15-octadecadienoic acids. A series of hexadecanoic, hexadecenoic, and hexadecadienoic acid glucuronides which appear to be beta-oxidation products of the C18 fatty acids were also observed, with the major species being 10, 11-dihydroxy-7-hexadecenoic acid glucuronide. In all, 16 C16 and C18 dihydroxy fatty acids were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. A series of at least 11 trihydroxy fatty acids was also observed but not fully characterized. Measurement of these compounds may prove to be useful in the diagnosis of some peroxisomal disorders.

Abstract
Monocyte recruitment and adherence are important events in inflammatory and vascular diseases. Here, we evaluated the actions of lipoxin A4 (LXA4) and LXB4, a series of lipoxygenase products from arachidonic acid generated by cell-cell interactions, on human monocytes. LXA4 and LXB4 (10(-7) M) each increased monocyte migration in chamber chemotaxis assays and, in migration under agarose, exhibited chemotactic indices similar to those of the chemotactic peptide formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine at 10(-10)-10(-8) M and to the chemokine macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP-1 alpha) at 10(-8)-10(-7) M with a rank order of potency: Monocyte chemotactic protein-1 alpha > LXA4 approximately LXB4 approximately MIP-1 alpha. Lipoxins also stimulated monocyte adherence to laminin. In addition, human monocytes rapidly transformed LXA4 and LXB4 to several metabolites. LXB4 (> 80%) was converted within 30 s to new products, in a trend similar to that of LXA4. The novel monocyte-derived LXB4 products were identified as 5-oxo-6,7-dihydro-LXB4 and 6,7-dihydro-LXB4, indicating a role for site-selective dehydrogenation and reduction. Unlike monocytes, intact polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) did not metabolize LXA4 in significant quantities, and only approximately 12% of exogenous LXB4 was omega-oxidized to 20-OH-LXB4 and 20-COOH-LXB4 by PMN. To determine if lipoxin conversion altered bioactivity, we evaluated the actions of these metabolites on monocytes. Each of the novel products of LXA4 and LXB4 from monocytes, namely oxo- and dihydrolipoxins, were essentially inactive in stimulating monocyte adherence. In contrast, the omega-oxidation products of LXB4 isolated from PMN were equipotent with LXB4 for monocyte adherence. Dehydrogenation of LXA4 in monocytes appears to be carried out by a 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase, which is present in human monocytes as determined by reverse transcription PCR and Western blots. Together, these results provide the first evidence that LXA4 and LXB4 are both potent stimulants for migration and adherence of human monocytes. Moreover, they underscore the importance of the major route of lipoxin metabolism in leukocytes, namely, the rapid dehydrogenation and inactivation carried out by monocytes.

Abstract
The intermediate metabolic events which degrade hydroxy polyunsaturated fatty acids is largely unknown. Such molecules are common products of lipid peroxidation and lipoxygenase catalyzed oxidation of arachidonic acid. Metabolism of two 5,12-dihydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids, 6-trans-LTB4 (leukotriene B4), and 6-trans-12-epi-LTB4 was studied in HepG2 cells (a human-derived hepatoma cell line). Extensive metabolism was observed with a major metabolite identified as 4-hydroxy-6-dodecenoic acid for both epimers. Incubation of 6-trans-LTB4 epimers at shorter times revealed the formation of intermediate metabolites, including 6-hydroxy-4,8-tetradecadienoic acid and 8-hydroxy-4,6,10-hexadecatrienoic acid suggesting beta-oxidation as the major pathway leading to the formation of the common terminal metabolite. Two additional metabolites were structurally elucidated as 5-oxo-6,7-dihydro-LTB4 and 6,7-dihydro-LTB4 which have not been previously described. Formation of 5-oxo-6,7-dihydro-LTB4 and 6,7-dihydro-LTB4 were also observed during metabolism of 6-trans-12-epi-LTB4 in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Of particular interest is the metabolism of these compounds by beta-oxidation from the carboxyl terminus, a process which is not observed with leukotriene B4 or leukotriene C4. Identification of these metabolites suggested the operation of the 5-hydroxyeicosanoid dehydrogenase pathway followed by a delta 6-reductase metabolic pathway which has not been previously described. This pathway of beta-oxidation may limit the activity of various 5,12-diHETEs including nonenzymatic hydrolysis products of LTA4 and also the recently described B4-isoleukotrienes.

Abstract
We have previously reported that human lymphoid cells, such as peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes (PBML) and the T-cell leukemia line Jurcat, synthesize p-acetamidobenzoic acid from p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and a two carbon fragment from arachidonic acid (AA), conceivably derived from beta-oxidation. Here we demonstrate that AA is a preferred substrate in this acetylation reaction over other common fatty acids such as palmitic (PA), oleic, linoleic or linolenic. This was unexpected because AA is not considered as a fuel fatty acid. In Jurcat cells, AA is also preferred as a substrate for beta-oxidation over PA. In contrast, in PBML, PA was clearly preferred as substrate for beta-oxidation over AA, in accordance with previous observations. The difference between Jurcat cells and PBML was not dependent on culture conditions, because phytohemagglutinin and interleukin-2 activated PBML, kept in culture, showed the same PA preference as freshly prepared non-activated PBML. Furthermore, we observed differences between Jurcat cells and PBML in their relative content of fatty acids and in the incorporation of PA and AA into triacylglycerols and phospholipids. Taken together, our results show differences in beta-oxidation between Jurcat cells and PBML, and suggest the involvement of peroxisomal, besides mitochondrial, beta-oxidation, in the acetylation of PABA with fatty acids as acetyl donors.
