Abstract
We have evidence that 15-F₂-isoprostanes (15-F₂-IsoPs) regulate excitatory neurotransmitter release in ocular tissues. Although 5-F₂-IsoPs are abundantly produced in mammals, their pharmacological actions on neurotransmitter release remain unknown. In the present study, we compared the effect of the 5-F₂-IsoP epimer pair, 5-F(2t)-IsoP (C5-OH in β-position) and 5-epi-5-F(2t)-IsoP (C5-OH in α-position), on K⁺-evoked [³H]D-aspartate release in isolated bovine retina. We further examined the role of prostanoid receptors on the inhibitory action of 5-epi-5-F(2t)-IsoP on [³H]D-aspartate overflow. Isolated bovine retina were prepared for studies of K⁺-evoked release of [³H]D-aspartate using the superfusion method. 5-epi-5-F(2t)-IsoP (0.01 nM to 1 μM), attenuated K⁺-evoked [³H]D-aspartate release in a concentration-dependent manner, with the inhibitory effect of 26.9% (P < 0.001; IC₂₅ = 0.2 μM) being achieved at 1 μM concentration. Its 5-(S)-OH-epimer, 5-F(2t)-IsoP (0.1 nM-1 μM), exhibited an inhibitory biphasic action, yielding a maximal response of 35.7% (P < 0.001) at 10 nM concentration of the drug (IC₂₅ value of 3 nM). Although the prostanoid-receptor antagonists, AH 6809 (10 μM; EP₁₋₃/DP) and BAY-u3405 (10 μM; DP/Tx) exhibited no effect on 5-epi-5-F(2t)-IsoP (10 nM-1 μM)-mediated inhibition, SC-19220 (1 μM; EP₁) completely reversed 5-epi-5-F(2t)-IsoP (0.1 μM and 1 μM)-induced attenuation of K⁺-evoked [³H]D-aspartate release. Similarly, both SC-51322 (10 μM; EP₁ and AH 23848 (1 μM; EP₄) reversed the inhibitory action elicited by 5-epi-5-F(2t)-IsoP (0.1 μM) on the neurotransmitter release. We conclude that the 5-F₂-IsoP epimer pair, 5-F(2t)-IsoP and 5-epi-5-F(2t)-IsoP, attenuate K⁺-induced [³H]D-aspartate release in isolated bovine retina presumably via prostanoid receptor dependent mechanisms. The trans-orientation of the allylic hydroxyl group at position C5 accounts for the apparent biphasic response exhibited by 5-F(2t)-IsoP on excitatory neurotransmitter release.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of isoprostanes (IsoPs) on potassium (K+)-depolarization-evoked release of [3H]dopamine from isolated bovine retinae. Isolated retinae were preloaded with [3H]dopamine and then prepared for studies of [3H]dopamine release using the superfusion method. 8-iso(15R)PGF 2alpha, 8-isoPGE2, 8-isoPGE1 and 8-isoPGF 2alpha attenuated [3H]dopamine release from isolated bovine retinae. At a concentration of 1 microM, the rank order of activity displayed by IsoP agonists was: 8-iso(15R)PGF 2alpha > 8-isoPGE2 > 8-isoPGE1 > 8-isoPGF 2alpha. Inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) with flurbiprofen reversed the effects caused by 8-isoPGE2 (10 nM and 10 microM), 8-iso(15R)PGF 2alpha (1 microM) and 8-isoPGE1 (1 microM). Although the EP1/EP2 antagonist, AH 6809 (10 microM) had no significant effect on K+-induced [3H]dopamine release, it blocked the inhibitory effect of both 8-isoPGE1 (10 microM) and 8-isoPGE2 (10 microM). In conclusion, IsoPs attenuate K+-induced [3H]dopamine release in isolated bovine retinae, presumably via an indirect action on COX pathway leading to the production of prostanoids, which in turn, activates EP receptors.

Abstract
Ischemic proliferative retinopathy develops in various retinal disorders, including retinal vein occlusion, diabetic retinopathy and retinopathy of prematurity. Ischemic retinopathy remains a common cause of visual impairment and blindness in the industrialized world due to relatively ineffective treatment. Oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) is an established model of retinopathy of prematurity associated with vascular cell injury culminating in microvascular degeneration, which precedes an abnormal neovascularization. The retina is a tissue particularly rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids and the ischemic retina becomes highly sensitive to lipid peroxidation initiated by oxygenated free radicals. Consequently, the retina constitutes an excellent model for testing the functional consequences of membrane lipid peroxidation. Retinal tissue responds to physiological and pathophysiological stimuli by the activation of phospholipases and the consequent release from membrane phospholipids of biologically active metabolites. Activation of phospholipase A(2) is the first step in the synthesis of two important classes of lipid second messengers, the eicosanoids and a membrane-derived phospholipid mediator platelet-activating factor (PAF). These lipid mediators accumulate in the retina in response to injury and a physiologic role of these metabolites in retinal vasculature remains for the most part to be determined; albeit proposed roles have been suggested for some. The eicosanoids, in particular the prostanoids, thromboxane (TXA2) and PAF are abundantly generated following an oxidant stress and contribute to neurovascular injury. TXA2 and PAF play an important role in the retinal microvacular degeneration of OIR by directly inducing endothelial cell death and potentially could contribute to the pathogenesis of ischemic retinopathies. Despite these advances there are still a number of important questions that remain to be answered before we can confidently target pathological signals. This review focuses on mechanisms that precede the development of neovascularization, most notably regarding the role of lipid mediators that partake in microvascular degeneration.

Abstract
The effect of 8-isoprostanes on potassium (K+)-depolarization-evoked release of [3H]D-aspartate from bovine isolated retinae was investigated. Isolated bovine retinae were prepared for studies of K(+)-evoked release of [3H]D-aspartate using the Superfusion Method. Low concentrations of 8-isoPGF(2alpha) (1-100 nM) inhibited whereas higher concentrations of this 8-isoprostane (100 nM-30 microM) enhanced K(+)-induced [3H]D-aspartate overflow. The excitatory effect of 8-isoPGF(2alpha) was mimicked by thromboxane receptor agonist, U-46619 and blocked by thromboxane receptor antagonist, SQ 29,548 (10 microM). Pretreatment of tissues with the cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor, flurbiprofen unmasked an inhibitory effect of high concentrations of 8-isoPGF(2alpha) (1-30 microM) on [3H]D-aspartate release that was attenuated by AH 6809 (10 microM). In conclusion, 8-isoPGF(2alpha) exhibits a dual regulatory effect on K(+)-induced [3H]D-aspartate release in isolated bovine retinae. The inhibitory action caused by 8-isoPGF(2alpha) is due to the activation of EP1/EP2 receptors while the excitatory effects are due to the activation of thromboxane receptors.

Abstract
Isoprostanes are widely recognized as useful markers of membrane lipid peroxidation. It seems to be less well appreciated, however, that they also elicit important biological responses, even though this was first shown at the same time that they were introduced as markers of oxidative stress. The past several years have seen the list of cells/tissues which are sensitive to isoprostanes grow considerably: in fact, as we summarize here, there is now evidence that essentially every cell type in the lung responds in some pathologically relevant way to isoprostanes. In this sense, they might well be considered as not just markers of oxidative stress and inflammation, but also as a novel group of inflammatory mediators. Moreover, in addition to their pathological effects, we summarize here the evidence which has led us to hypothesize that isoprostanes could play an important role in vascular smooth muscle physiology as "endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factors."

Abstract
The effect of hyperlipemia associated with diabetes on the contractility of resistance arteries to prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) was investigated employing 4 weeks simultaneously hyperlipemic-diabetic (HD), hyperlipemic (H), diabetic (D) and normal hamsters (controls, C). The isometric force produced by explanted arteries in the presence of 10(-8) to 10(-5) M PGF2alpha was recorded by the myograph technique. The results showed that compared with controls, the contractile response to 10(-5) M PGF2alpha was approx. 2 fold increased in HD group, and approx. 1.75 and 1.62-fold enhanced in H and D groups, respectively. Activation of protein kinase C with 10(-6) M phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate increased the contractility to PGF2alpha in all groups and particularly in HD hamsters (approx. 10.16-fold). Inhibition of cyclooxygenase by indomethacin increased approx. 1.81-fold the arterial contractility to PGF2alpha in C group, whereas in H, D and HD hamsters had no effect. Blockage of Ca(2+)-activated K(+)-channels with 10(-3) M tetraethylammonium augmented the contraction to PGF2alpha approx. 6.43-fold in C group, and at significantly lower levels in H, D and HD groups, i.e. approx. 3.84, 3.72 and 3.33-fold, respectively. The results validate two conclusions: (i) simultaneous insult of hyperlipemia-hyperglycemia is associated with the highest contractility of the resistance arteries to PGF2alpha; the highest circulating glucose and cholesterol levels, and the enhancement in the protein kinase C pathway underlay the augmented contractility; (ii) no matter the pathology induced (hyperlipemia, diabetes or both simultaneously) a common dysfunctional response to PGF2alpha was installed; this consists in a reduced effect of cyclooxygenase inhibition, and a altered activity of Ca(2+) dependent K(+) channels.

Abstract
The liver has been central to our understanding of the physiology and biology of the F2-isoprostanes. The discovery of F2-IsoPs and the initial demonstration that they could be used to localize oxidative stress was first demonstrated in a rat model of oxidative liver injury (carbon tetrachloride), and the first demonstration that plasma concentrations are increased in a human disease was in patients with liver failure and the hepatorenal syndrome [J. Clin. Invest. 90 (6) (1992b) 2502; J. Lipid Mediat. 6 (1/3) (1993) 417]. This article will cover the measurement of F2-IsoPs as markers of lipid peroxidation in vivo in liver disease, and review their biological activity as mediators of disease.

Abstract
Isoprostanes are produced during peroxidation of membrane lipids by free radicals and reactive oxygen species. Initially, they were recognized as being valuable markers of oxidative stress, and in the past 10 years, dozens of disease states and experimental conditions with diverse etiologies have been shown to be associated with marked increases in urinary, plasma, and tissue levels of isoprostanes. However, they are not just mere markers; they evoke important biological responses on virtually every cell type found within the lung, and these responses exhibit compound-, tissue-, and species-related variations. In fact, the isoprostanes may mediate many of the features of the disease states for which they are used as indicators. In this review, I describe the chemistry, metabolism, and pharmacology of isoprostanes, with a particular emphasis on pulmonary cell types, and the possible roles of isoprostanes in pulmonary pathophysiology.

Abstract
Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS-MS) was applied to the quantitative analysis of urinary 8-epi-prostaglandin F(2alpha) (8-epi-PGF(2alpha)) level. 8-Epi-PGF(2alpha) and its internal standard, [(2)H(4)]-8-epi-PGF(2alpha), were extracted from urine by using a solid phase extraction cartridge and loaded to LC/MS-MS in selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mode. The standard curve showed good linearity in the range of 40 pg to 10 ng (r = 0. 997). The accuracy of the added 8-epi-PGF(2alpha) ranged from 96.8 to 104.9% with a mean +/- SD of 99.5+/-2.5%. The average level +/- SD of urinary 8-epi-PGF(2alpha) in 13 healthy volunteers (five women and eight men, 31+/-7.4 years old) was 429.4+/-149.6 pg/mg creatinine. The level of seven patients with noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus (two women and five men, 40+/-13.6 years old), 630.9+/-275.6 pg/mg creatinine, was statistically higher than that of healthy volunteers (P<0.05). This finding suggested that diabetics are in a highly oxidative condition. This simple and rapid LC/MS-MS method can be used to elucidate the pathophysiological feature of diabetes or for monitoring the curative effect.

Abstract
Isoprostanes F(2) are biologically active prostaglandin F(2)-like compounds formed by free radical-catalyzed oxidation of arachidonic acid (C20:4). Here, we show that a series of dinor isoprostanes F(1), which we term phytoprostanes F(1) (PPF(1)s), are formed by nonenzymatic oxidation of linolenate (C18:3) in plants. Identification and quantification of PPF(1)s were achieved by a negative ion chemical ionization gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method using oxygen 18-labeled PPF(1)s as internal standards. PPF(1)s were found in leaves, flowers, and roots of taxonomically distinct plant species at concentrations ranging from 43 to 1380 ng/g of dry weight. In addition, esterified PPF(1)s were found at 10- to 150-fold higher concentrations. During the drying and storage of various plant organs, endogenous PPF(1) levels increased dramatically by 15- to 263-fold. Because the structurally related prostaglandin F(2alpha) and isoprostanes F(2) exert potent biological activities (i.e., broncho- and vasoconstriction) in the nanomolar range, PPF(1)s could potentially exert similar biological activities. Notably, fresh birch pollen, which can easily be inhaled, contains exceedingly high concentrations (32,440 ng/g) of free PPF(1)s.
