Abstract
Arachidonic acid 15-lipoxygenases (ALOX15) are lipid peroxidizing enzymes, which has previously been implicated in the maturational breakdown of intracellular organelles and plasma membrane remodeling during reticulocyte-erythrocyte transition. Conventional Alox15-/- mice are viable, develop normally but do not exhibit a major defective erythropoietic phenotype. To characterize the putative in vivo relevance of Alox15 for red blood cell development, we explored the impact of systemic inactivation of the Alox15 gene on mouse erythropoiesis. We found that Alox15-/- mice exhibited reduced erythrocyte counts, elevated reticulocyte counts and red cell hyperchromia. The structure of the plasma membrane of Alox15-/- erythrocytes is altered and a significant share of the red cells was present as echinocytes and/or acanthocytes. An increased share of the Alox15-/- erythrocytes cells were annexin V positive, which indicates a loss of plasma membrane asymmetry. Erythrocytes of Alox15-/- mice were more susceptible to osmotic hemolysis and exhibited a reduced ex vivo life span. When we transgenically expressed human ALOX15 in Alox15-/- mice under the control of the aP2 promoter the defective erythropoietic system was rescued and the impaired osmotic resistance was normalized. Together these data suggest the involvement Alox15 in the maturational remodeling of the plasma membrane during red cell development.

Abstract
Angiogenesis, disruption of the retinal barrier, leukocyte-adhesion and oedema are cardinal signs of proliferative retinopathies that are associated with vision loss. Therefore, identifying factors that regulate these vascular dysfunctions is critical to target pathological angiogenesis. Given the conflicting role of bioactive lipids reported in the current literature, the goal of this review is to provide the reader a clear road map of what has been accomplished so far in the field with specific focus on the role of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs)-derived metabolites in proliferative retinopathies. This necessarily entails a description of the different retina cells, blood retina barriers and the role of (PUFAs)-derived metabolites in diabetic retinopathy, retinopathy of prematurity and age-related macular degeneration as the most common types of proliferative retinopathies.

Abstract
The inducible metabolites in rice leaves treated with 1 mM jasmonic acid (JA) were analyzed using HPLC. We detected an increase in the levels of two compounds, 1 and 2. Based on the comparison with mass spectra and chromatographic behavior with authentic compounds, 1 and 2 were identified as 13-oxooctadeca-9,11-dienoic acid (13-KODE) and 9-oxooctadeca-10,12-dienoic acid (9-KODE), respectively, which have not been detected in rice to date. The accumulation of these compounds was also induced by an infection by Bipolaris oryzae. Treatment of rice leaves with KODEs induced the accumulation of defensive secondary metabolites, sakuranetin, naringenin, and serotonin, suggesting that KODEs may play a role in the elicitation of defense responses. The compounds that have an α, β-unsaturated carbonyl group similar to KODEs did not reproduce the response of accumulation of defensive secondary metabolites, suggesting that additional structural factors such as long hydrophobic carbon chain are needed to elicit defense responses.

Abstract
Erythropoiesis occurs mostly in bone marrow and ends in blood stream. Mature red blood cells are generated from multipotent hematopoietic stem cells, through a complex maturation process involving several morphological changes to produce a highly functional specialized cells. In mammals, terminal steps involved expulsion of the nucleus from erythroblasts that leads to the formation of reticulocytes. In order to produce mature biconcave red blood cells, organelles and ribosomes are selectively eliminated from reticulocytes as well as the plasma membrane undergoes remodeling. The mechanisms involved in these last maturation steps are still under investigation. Enucleation involves dramatic chromatin condensation and establishment of the nuclear polarity, which is driven by a rearrangement of actin cytoskeleton and the clathrin-dependent generation of vacuoles at the nuclear-cytoplasmic junction. This process is favored by interaction between the erythroblasts and macrophages at the erythroblastic island. Mitochondria are eliminated by mitophagy. This is a macroautophagy pathway consisting in the engulfment of mitochondria into a double-membrane structure called autophagosome before degradation. Several mice knock-out models were developed to identify mitophagy-involved proteins during erythropoiesis, but whole mechanisms are not completely determined. Less is known concerning the clearance of other organelles, such as smooth and rough ER, Golgi apparatus and ribosomes. Understanding the modulators of organelles clearance in erythropoiesis may elucidate the pathogenesis of different dyserythropoietic diseases such as myelodysplastic syndrome, leukemia and anemia.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a gram-negative pathogen, which causes life-threatening infections in immunocompromized patients. These bacteria express a secreted lipoxygenase (PA-LOX), which oxygenates free arachidonic acid to 15S-hydro(pero)xyeicosatetraenoic acid. It binds phospholipids at its active site and physically interacts with lipid vesicles. When incubated with red blood cells membrane lipids are oxidized and hemolysis is induced but the structures of the oxygenated membrane lipids have not been determined. Using a lipidomic approach, we analyzed the formation of oxidized phospholipids generated during the in vitro incubation of recombinant PA-LOX with human erythrocytes and cultured human lung epithelial cells. Precursor scanning of lipid extracts prepared from these cells followed by multiple reaction monitoring and MS/MS analysis revealed a complex mixture of oxidation products. For human red blood cells this mixture comprised forty different phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine species carrying oxidized fatty acid residues, such as hydroxy-octadecadienoic acids, hydroxy- and keto-eicosatetraenoic acid, hydroxy-docosahexaenoic acid as well as oxygenated derivatives of less frequently occurring polyenoic fatty acids. Similar oxygenation products were also detected when cultured lung epithelial cells were employed but here the amounts of oxygenated lipids were smaller and under identical experimental conditions we did not detect major signs of cell lysis. However, live imaging indicated an impaired capacity for trypan blue exclusion and an augmented mitosis rate. Taken together these data indicate that PA-LOX can oxidize the membrane lipids of eukaryotic cells and that the functional consequences of this reaction strongly depend on the cell type.

Abstract
Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and arachidonic acid 15-lipoxygenase (ALOX15) are antagonizing enzymes in the metabolism of hydroperoxy lipids. In spermatoid cells and/or in the male reproductive system both enzymes are apparently expressed, and GPX4 serves as anti-oxidative enzyme but also as a structural protein. In this study we explored whether germ line inactivation of the Alox15 gene might rescue male subfertility induced by heterozygous expression of catalytically silent Gpx4. To address this question we employed Gpx4 knock-in mice expressing the Sec46Ala-Gpx4 mutant, in which the catalytic selenocysteine was replaced by a redox inactive alanine. Because homozygous Gpx4 knock-in mice (Sec46Ala-Gpx4+/+) are not viable we created heterozygous animals (Sec46Ala-Gpx4+/-) and crossed them with Alox15 knock-out mice (Alox15-/-). Male Sec46Ala-Gpx4+/- mice, but not their female littermates, were subfertile. Sperm extracted from the epididymal cauda showed strongly impaired motility characteristics and severe structural midpiece alterations (swollen mitochondria, intramitochondrial vacuoles, disordered mitochondrial capsule). Despite these structural alterations, they exhibited similar respiration characteristics than wild-type sperm. When Sec46Ala-Gpx4+/- mice were crossed with Alox15-deficient animals, the resulting males (Sec46Ala-Gpx4+/-+Alox15-/-) showed normalized fertility, and sperm motility was reimproved to wild-type levels. Taken together these data suggest that systemic inactivation of the Alox15 gene normalizes the reduced fertility of male Sec46Ala-Gpx4+/- mice by improving the motility of their sperm. If these data can be confirmed in humans, ALOX15 inhibitors might counteract male infertility related to GPX4 deficiency.

Secreted lipoxygenase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa exhibits biomembrane oxygenase activity and induces hemolysis in human red blood cells. Arch Biochem Biophys 2015; 584:116-24.

Abstract
Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) expresses a secreted lipoxygenase (LOX), which oxygenates free arachidonic acid predominantly to 15S-H(p)ETE. The enzyme is capable of binding phospholipids at its active site and physically interacts with model membranes. However, its membrane oxygenase activity has not been quantified. To address this question, we overexpressed PA-LOX as intracellular his-tag fusion protein in Escherichia coli, purified it to electrophoretic homogeneity and compared its biomembrane oxygenase activity with that of rabbit ALOX15. We found that both enzymes were capable of oxygenating mitochondrial membranes to specific oxygenation products and 13S-H(p)ODE and 15S-H(p)ETE esterified to phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were identified as major oxygenation products. When normalized to similar linoleic acid oxygenase activity, the rabbit enzyme exhibited a much more effective mitochondrial membrane oxygenase activity. In contrast, during long-term incubations (24 h) with red blood cells PA-LOX induced significant (50%) hemolysis whereas rabbit ALOX15 was more or less ineffective. These data indicate the principle capability of PA-LOX of oxygenating membrane bound phospholipids which is likely to alter the barrier function of the biomembranes. Although the membrane oxygenase activity was lower than the fatty acid oxygenase activity of PA-LOX red blood cell membrane oxygenation might be of biological relevance for P. aeruginosa septicemia.

Abstract
Lipoxygenases (LOX) form a family of lipid peroxidizing enzymes, which have been implicated in a number of physiological processes and in the pathogenesis of inflammatory, hyperproliferative and neurodegenerative diseases. They occur in two of the three domains of terrestrial life (bacteria, eucarya) and the human genome involves six functional LOX genes, which encode for six different LOX isoforms. One of these isoforms is ALOX15, which has first been described in rabbits in 1974 as enzyme capable of oxidizing membrane phospholipids during the maturational breakdown of mitochondria in immature red blood cells. During the following decades ALOX15 has extensively been characterized and its biological functions have been studied in a number of cellular in vitro systems as well as in various whole animal disease models. This review is aimed at summarizing the current knowledge on the protein-chemical, molecular biological and enzymatic properties of ALOX15 in various species (human, mouse, rabbit, rat) as well as its implication in cellular physiology and in the pathogenesis of various diseases.

Abstract
Autophagy is a process that leads to the degradation of unnecessary or dysfunctional cellular components and long-lived protein aggregates. Erythropoiesis is a branch of hematopoietic differentiation by which mature red blood cells (RBCs) are generated from multi-potential hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Autophagy plays a critical role in the elimination of mitochondria, ribosomes and other organelles during erythroid terminal differentiation. Here, the modulators of autophagy that regulate erythroid differentiation were summarized, including autophagy-related (Atg) genes, the B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) family member Bcl-2/adenovirus E1B 19 kDa interacting protein 3-like (Nix/Binp3L), transcription factors globin transcription factor 1 (GATA1) and forkhead box O3 (FoxO3), intermediary factor KRAB-associated protein1 (KAP1), and other modulators, such as focal adhesion kinase family-interacting protein of 200-kDa (FIP200), Ca2+ and 15-lipoxygenase. Understanding the modulators of autophagy in erythropoiesis will benefit the autophagy research field and facilitate the prevention and treatment of autophagy-related red blood cell disorders.

Abstract
Human and rabbit reticulocyte 15-lipoxygenase (15-lipoxygenase-1) and the leukocyte-type 12-lipoxygenases (12/15-lipoxygenases) of pig, beef, mouse and rat constitute a particular subfamily of mammalian lipoxygenases (reticulocyte-type lipoxygenases) with unique properties and functions. They catalyze enzymatic lipid peroxidation in complex biological structures via direct dioxygenation of phospholipids and cholesterol esters of biomembranes and plasma lipoproteins. Moreover, they are a source of free radicals initiating non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation and other oxidative processes. Expression and activity of reticulocyte-type lipoxygenases are highly regulated. Moreover, the susceptibility of intracellular membranes toward these lipoxygenases is controlled and may be increased together with lipoxygenase activity under conditions of oxidative stress. Thus, oxidative stress may favor a concerted package of lipoxygenase-mediated enzymatic and non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation and co-oxidative processes. Reaction of reticulocyte-type lipoxygenases with low-density lipoprotein renders the latter atherogenic and appears to be involved in the formation of atherosclerotic lesions.

Abstract
Physical damage and disease are known to lead to changes in the oxylipin signature of plants. We searched for oxylipins produced in response to both wounding and pathogenesis in Arabidopsis leaves. Linoleic acid 9- and 13-ketodienes (KODEs) were found to accumulate in wounded leaves as well as in leaves infected with the pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst). Quantification of the compounds showed that they accumulated to higher levels during the hypersensitive response to Pst avrRpm1 than during infection with a Pst strain lacking an avirulence gene. KODEs are Michael addition acceptors, containing a chemically reactive alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl group. When infiltrated into leaves, KODEs were found to induce expression of the GST1 gene, but vital staining indicated that these compounds also damaged plant cells. Several molecules typical of lipid oxidation, including malonaldehyde, also contain the alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl reactivity feature, and, when delivered in a volatile form, powerfully induced the expression of GST1. The results draw attention to the potential physiological importance of naturally occurring Michael addition acceptors in plants. In particular, these compounds could act directly, or indirectly via cell damage, as powerful gene activators and might also contribute to host cell death.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation of membrane phospholipids can proceed both enzymatically via the mammalian 15-lipoxygenase-1 or the NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase system and non-enzymatically. In some cells, such as reticulocytes, this process is biologically programmed, whereas in the majority of biological systems lipid peroxidation is a deleterious process that has to be repaired via a deacylation-reacylation cycle of phospholipid metabolism. Several reports in the literature pinpoint a stimulation by lipid peroxidation of the activity of secretory phospholipase A(2)s (mainly pancreatic and snake venom enzymes) which was originally interpreted as a repair function. However, recent experiments from our laboratory have demonstrated that in mixtures of lipoxygenated and native phospholipids the former are not preferably cleaved by either secretory or cytosolic phospholipase A(2)s. We propose that the platelet activating factor (PAF) acetylhydrolases of type II, which cleave preferentially peroxidised or lipoxygenated phospholipids, are competent for the phospholipid repair, irrespective of their role in PAF metabolism. A corresponding role of Ca(2+)-independent phospholipase A(2), which has been proposed to be involved in phospholipid remodelling in biomembranes, has not been addressed so far. Direct and indirect 15-lipoxygenation of phospholipids in biomembranes modulates cell signalling by several ways. The stimulation of phospholipase A(2)-mediated arachidonic acid release may constitute an alternative route of the arachidonic acid cascade. Thus, 15-lipoxygenase-mediated oxygenation of membrane phospholipids and its interaction with phospholipase A(2)s may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of diseases, such as bronchial asthma and atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Modern separation and identification methods enable detailed insight in lipid peroxidation (LPO) processes. The following deductions can be made: (1) Cell injury activates enzymes: lipoxygenases generate lipid hydroperoxides (LOOHs), proteases liberate Fe ions--these two processes are prerequisites to produce radicals. (2) Radicals attack any activated CH2-group of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) with about a similar probability. Since linoleic acid (LA) is the most abundant PUFA in mammals, its LPO products dominate. (3) LOOHs are easily reduced in biological surroundings to corresponding hydroxy acids (LOHs). LOHs derived from LA, hydroxyoctadecadienoic acids (HODEs), surmount other markers of LPO. HODEs are of high physiological relevance. (4) In some diseases characterized by inflammation or cell injury HODEs are present in low density lipoproteins (LDL) at 10-100 higher concentration, compared to LDL from healthy individuals.

Abstract
Reticulocyte-type 15-lipoxygenase is known to dioxygenate phospholipids without preceding action of phospholipases A2 (PLA2). Therefore we studied the reaction of the secretory PLA2s (sPLA2) from pancreas and snake venom, and of the human cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) with 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoyl phosphatidylcholine (PAPC) and their 15-lipoxygenated species (PAPC-OOH and PAPC-OH) either alone or as equimolar mixtures. These PLA2s cleaved PAPC-O(O)H with higher (sPLA2) or similar rates (cPLA2) as compared with native PAPC. In mixtures, however, PAPC proved to be the preferred, albeit not exclusive substrate for all three PLA2s. Thus, partial 15-lipoxygenation of phospholipids may also trigger liberation of arachidonic acid.

Abstract
To observe lipid peroxidation of additive-free submitochondrial particles, we incubated submitochondrial particles in the absence of exogenous irons and t-butyl hydroperoxide. After the incubation, the phospholipids were hydrolyzed by phopholipase A2, and the fatty acid constituents were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Contrary to a commonly accepted theory, lipid peroxidation in the submitochondrial particles did not need the addition of NADH. In the phospholipid constituent fatty acids of the oxidized submitochondrial particles, derivatives of hydroperoxides of linoleic acid such as keto, hydroxy, trihydroxy, and hydroxyepoxy compounds were generated. Lipid peroxidation in the submitochondrial particles was not inhibited by the addition of catalase, superoxide dismutase, hydroxyl radical scavengers, or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, but was inhibited by the addition of KCN, antimycin-A, NADH, ubiquinol, deferoxamine mesylate, ascorbic acid, and alpha-tocopherol. The cardiolipin-cytochrome c lipid peroxidation system could mimic the lipid peroxidation of the submitochondrial particles, in terms of linoleic acid products and the inhibitory patterns of radical scavengers and electron transfer chain inhibitors. Thus, lipid peroxidation in the submitochondrial particles seems to be due to phospholipid-hemoprotein lipid peroxidation systems such as the cardiolipin-cytochrome c system.

Abstract
AbstractMammalian 15-lipoxygenases, which have been implicated in the differentiation of hematopoietic cells are commonly regarded as cytosolic enzymes. Studying the interaction of the purified rabbit reticulocyte 15-lipoxygenase with various types of biomembranes, we found that the enzyme binds to biomembranes when calcium is present in the incubation mixture. Under these conditions, an oxidation of the membrane lipids was observed. The membrane binding was reversible and led to an increase in the fatty acid oxygenase activity of the enzyme. To find out whether such a membrane binding also occurs in vivo, we investigated the intracellular localization of the enzyme in stimulated and resting hematopoietic cells by immunoelectron microscopy, cell fractionation studies and activity assays. In rabbit reticulocytes, the 15-lipoxygenase was localized in the cytosol, but also bound to intracellular membranes. This membrane binding was also reversible and the detection of specific lipoxygenase products in the membrane lipids indicated the in vivo activity of the enzyme on endogenous substrates. Immunoelectron microscopy showed that in interleukin-4 –treated monocytes, the 15-lipoxygenase was localized in the cytosol, but also at the inner side of the plasma membrane and at the cytosolic side of intracellular vesicles. Here again, cell fractionation studies confirmed the in vivo membrane binding of the enzyme. In human eosinophils, which constitutively express the 15-lipoxygenase, the membrane bound share of the enzyme was augmented when the cells were stimulated with calcium ionophore. Only under these conditions, specific lipoxygenase products were detected in the membrane lipids. These data suggest that in hematopoietic cells the cytosolic 15-lipoxygenase translocates reversibly to the cellular membranes. This translocation, which increases the fatty acid oxygenase activity of the enzyme, is calcium-dependent, but may not require a special docking protein.

Abstract
Oxidative modification of LDL is believed to play a major role in atherogenesis. As major lipid peroxidation products oxygenated linoleic acid derivatives and oxysterols have been described in human atherosclerotic lesions. Here we report that human lesions contain isoprostanes as peroxidation products of arachidonic acid at a level of 27.1 +/- 21.2 pg/mg wet weight (n = 10), which corresponds to 75.9 +/- 59.3 pg/mg dry weight, n contrast, human umbilical veins (n = 10), which were used as nonatherosclerotic control vessels, contain much smaller amounts of isoprostanes (1.4 +/- 0.7 pg/mg wet weight, which corresponds to 11.7 +/- 6.2 pg/mg dry weight), and there are significant differences between the two types of vessels. As major products of linoleic acid oxidation, racemic hydroxy linoleate isomers were detected in the lesional ester lipids. In human lesions, the hydroxy linoleic acid/linoleic acid ratio was about 0.5%, a result indicating that 5 out of 1000 linoleate residues are present as hydroxylated derivatives. In umbilical veins, no hydroxy linoleic acid could be detected. These data show that human atherosclerotic lesions contain increased amounts of hydroxy linoleic acid isomers and isoprostanes when compared with nonatherosclerotic vessel wall and suggest a link between local lipid peroxidation and progression of atherosclerosis. For evaluation of the degree of lipid peroxidation, the determination of the hydroxy linoleic acid/linoleic acid ratio appears to be more suitable than the isoprostane content.

Abstract
The purified 15-lipoxygenase from rabbit reticulocytes is capable of oxidizing NADH in the presence of linoleic acid and oxygen. This co-oxidation proceeds at a rate that amounts to approx. 7% of linoleic acid oxygenation rates. Although NADH inhibits the lipoxygenase reaction with linoleic acid as substrate (46% inhibition at 0.2 mM NADH), the reaction specificity of the enzyme was not altered since (13S)-hydroperoxy-(9Z,11E)-octadecadienoic acid was identified as the major reaction product. NADH oxidation was inhibited by NAD+ (uncompetitive with respect to linoleate and mixed/competitive with respect to NADH), and NADPH or NMNH could substitute for NADH with slightly different apparent Km values. NADH oxidation was enhanced at lower oxygen tension, but was completely prevented under anaerobic conditions. Computer-assisted modelling of 15-lipoxygenase/NADH interaction and sequence alignments of mammalian lipoxygenases with NADH-dependent enzymes suggested that there is no specific binding of the coenzyme at the putative fatty acid-binding site of lipoxygenases. These results suggest that NAD(P)H might be oxidized by a radical intermediate formed during the dioxygenase cycle of the lipoxygenase reaction but that NADH oxidation might not proceed at the active site of the enzyme. The mechanism and possible biological consequences of 15-lipoxygenase-catalysed NAD(P)H oxidation are discussed.

Abstract
At early stages of germination, a special lipoxygenase is expressed in cotyledons of cucumber and several other plants. This enzyme is localized at the lipid storage organelles and oxygenates their storage triacylglycerols. We have isolated this lipid body lipoxygenase from cucumber seedlings and found that it is capable of oxygenating in vitro di- and trilinolein to the corresponding mono-, di-, and trihydroperoxy derivatives. To investigate the in vivo activity of this enzyme during germination, lipid bodies were isolated from cucumber seedlings at different stages of germination, and the triacylglycerols were analyzed for oxygenated derivatives by a combination of high pressure liquid chromatography, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. We identified as major oxygenation products triacylglycerols that contained one, two, or three 13S-hydroperoxy-9(Z),11(E)-octadecadienoic acid residues. During germination, the amount of oxygenated lipids increased strongly, reaching a maximum after 72 h and declining afterward. The highly specific pattern of hydroperoxy lipids formed suggested the involvement of the lipid body lipoxygenase in their biosynthesis. These data suggest that this lipoxygenase may play an important role during the germination process of cucumber and other plants and support our previous hypothesis that the specific oxygenation of the storage lipids may initiate their mobilization as a carbon and energy source for the growing seedling.

Abstract
The germination process of oilseed plants is characterized by a mobilization of the storage lipids which constitute the major carbon source for the growing seedling. Despite the physiological importance of the lipid mobilization, the mechanism of this process is not well understood. Recently, it was found that a specific linoleate 13-lipoxygenase is induced during the stage of lipid mobilization in various oilseed plants and that this enzyme is translocated to the membranes of the lipid storage organelles, the so called lipid bodies. Lipoxygenase expression was paralleled by the occurrence of enantiospecific hydro(pero)xy polyenoic fatty acid derivatives in the storage lipids suggesting the in vivo action of the enzyme. Furthermore, it was reported that oxygenated polyenoic fatty acids, in particular as 13(S)-hydro(pero)xy-9(Z),11(E)-octadecanoic acid [13(S)-H(P)ODE], are cleaved preferentially from the storage lipids when compared with their non-oxygenated linoleate residues. These findings may suggest that 13(S)-H(P)ODE may constitute the endogenous substrate for beta-oxidation during lipid mobilization of oilseed plants.

Abstract
Infarcted porcine heart tissue and surrounding tissue were investigated for the content of plasmalogens and oxidatively derived corresponding alpha-hydroxyaldehydes as well as for products of lipid peroxidation, e.g. malondialdehyde, glyoxal, 2-hydroxyheptanal and oxygenated fatty acids. Oxidation products of unsaturated fatty acids and plasmalogens were accumulated in infarcted tissue compared to the surrounding one. Their amounts increased with time of ischemia. In addition leukotoxins (9, 10-epoxy-12-octadecenoic acid and 12,13-epoxy-9-octadecenoic acid) as well as other epoxides of unsaturated fatty acids were identified. These compounds are absent in healthy heart tissue. Some of the monohydroxy fatty acids, found in comparable high yield, can not be derived from LPO processes. They are obviously generated from epoxides. Their distribution pattern indicates that they originate by an enzymic rather than by an autocatalytic process. We assume that the enzymes are activated by cell injury due to infarction. Linoleic acid seems to be an as equally well-suited substrate for enzymic attack as arachidonic acid.

Abstract
Hydroperoxides of unsaturated fatty acids (LOOHs) are generated by homogenisation of liver tissue, but not if the liver is boiled before homogenisation. This observation indicates that the LOOHs are produced in an enzymatic reaction. This assumption is corroborated by an analysis of the reduction products of LOOHs by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). A main part of LOOHs is derived from linoleic acid and not from arachidonic acid. Massive cell damage occurs by myocardial infarction or other severe injuries; these events were found to be connected with generation of LOOHs. We suspect--considering the above outlined experiment--that the LOOH production is also mainly caused in these cases by activation of enzymes and not--as postulated--by an autocatalytic process. Increased amounts of LOOHs are found in many chronic diseases, e.g. in rheuma, atherosclerosis or psoriasis, obviously caused by a gradual damage of cells. Thus, the common root of an increased LOOH level might be cell injury.

Abstract
The etiolated germination process of oilseed plants is characterized by the mobilization of storage lipids, which serve as a major carbon source for the seedling. We found that during early stages of germination in cucumber, a lipoxygenase (linoleate: oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.13.11.12) form is induced that is capable of oxygenating the esterified fatty acids located in the lipid-storage organelles, the so-called lipid bodies. Large amounts of esterified (13S)-hydroxy-(9Z,11E)-octadecadienoic acid were detected in the lipid bodies, whereas only traces of other oxygenated fatty acid isomers were found. This specific product pattern confirms the in vivo action of this lipoxygenase form during germination. Lipid fractionation studies of lipid bodies indicated the presence of lipoxygenase products both in the storage triacylglycerols and, to a higher extent, in the phospholipids surrounding the lipid stores as a monolayer. The degree of oxygenation of the storage lipids increased drastically during the time course of germination. We show that oxygenated fatty acids are preferentially cleaved from the lipid bodies and are subsequently released into the cytoplasm. We suggest that they may serve as substrate for beta-oxidation. These data suggest that during the etiolated germination, a lipoxygenase initiates the mobilization of storage lipids. The possible mechanisms of this implication are discussed.

Abstract
In order to know whether or not vitamin E acts as an effective antioxidant in lipoxygenase-dependent peroxidation of phospholipids, the effect of vitamin E and vitamin E analogues, 2,2,5,7,8-pentamethyl-6-hydroxychroman (PMC) and 6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylic acid (Trolox C), was investigated in enzymatic lipid peroxidation of bile salt micelles of pig liver phosphatidylcholine (PC) using soybean lipoxygenase. 15-Hydroperoxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid was exclusively produced by the reaction with the PC molecular species containing arachidonic acid moiety, indicating that the hydroperoxidation of pig liver PC entirely progresses through the enzymatic reaction. PMC suppressed the accumulation of PC-hydroperoxides (PC-OOH) more efficiently than either d-alpha-tocopherol (alpha-Toc) or Trolox C, and 50% inhibition concentration by PMC was close to that of quercetin, a known lipoxygenase inhibitor from natural origin. The antioxidant activity of PMC was also superior to that of either alpha-Toc or Trolox C in ferrous ion-induced nonenzymatic oxidation of PC micelles in the presence of a trace amount of PC-OOH, although the radical-scavenging activities of these compounds in solution were similar or comparable to one another. In conclusion, PMC is more effective than alpha-Toc as an inhibitor of lipoxygenase reaction with phospholipids and of autoxidation in phospholipids. The phytyl chain of alpha-Toc seems to be unfavorable for exerting an inhibitory effect on lipoxygenase reaction with phospholipid-bile salt micelles.

Abstract
The lipophilic antioxidant 3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxytoluene (BHT) and the structurally-related antiatherogenic drug probucol stimulate the oxygenation of mitochondrial membranes and erythrocyte ghosts by the rabbit 15-lipoxygenase as indicated by an increase in oxygen consumption as well as by an enhanced loss of polyenoic fatty acids and by the formation of specific lipoxygenase products in the membrane phospholipids. The oxygenation of linoleic acid, phospholipids and human low-density lipoproteins was not stimulated. With mitochondrial membranes, BHT causes a quenching of the 1-anilino-8-naphthalene sulfonate fluorescence. Thus, it is suggested that the stimulation of membrane oxygenation may be due to structural changes in the membranes leading to a better susceptibility of the polyenoic fatty acid residues towards lipoxygenase attack. Owing to this unexpected effect of the antioxidants, which is not related to their radical-scavenger capacity, care should be taken in interpreting experimental data on effects of BHT and probucol.

Abstract
The reticulocyte 15-lipoxygenase (linoleate:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.13.11.12) is implicated in oxidative damage to reticulocyte mitochondria before their elimination by degradation during maturation to the erythrocyte. A proportion of the 15-lipoxygenase sediments with the mitochondrial-rich stromal fraction of density-gradient-fractionated rabbit reticulocytes suggesting a physical association with mitochondria before their elimination. Ca2+ promotes binding of reticulocyte 15-lipoxygenase to isolated rat liver and reticulocyte mitochondria and 15-lipoxygenase-mediated lipid peroxidation of mitochondrial lipids and free linoleic acid. Association of reticulocyte 15-lipoxygenase with isolated mitochondria is not simply a consequence of Ca(2+)-induced swelling, but implies that Ca2+ mediates translocation of soluble lipoxygenase to mitochondrial membranes. Therefore, Ca2+ may have an important physiological role in the regulation of 15-lipoxygenase-mediated targeting of reticulocyte mitochondria for degradation.

Abstract
When arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase purified from porcine leukocytes was incubated aerobically with 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, the phospholipid reacted at up to 30% of the rate of a free fatty acid substrate; the esterified arachidonic acid was oxygenated predominantly to the (12S)-12-hydroperoxy product. The porcine leukocyte enzyme was also capable of metabolizing phosphatidylcholine containing esterified (15S)-15-hydroperoxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid; oxygenation occurred predominantly at the 14R position. Reaction with mitochondrial and endoplasmic membranes of rat liver produced esterified (12S)-12-hydroperoxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid and (13S)-13-hydroperoxy-9,11-octadecadienoic acid as major oxygenation products. Thus, porcine leukocyte 12-lipoxygenase is capable of oxygenating not only free polyenoic fatty acids but also more complex substrates such as phospholipids and biomembranes. In contrast, the human platelet 12-lipoxygenase is almost inactive with these esterified polyenoic fatty acids. In regard to the function of these enzymes, the leukocyte-type of 12-lipoxygenase has similar catalytic activities to the mammalian 15-lipoxygenase and its physiological function may include the structural modification of membrane lipids.

Abstract
Arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase (arachidonate:oxygen 15-oxidoreductase, EC 1.13.11.33) is a lipid-peroxidating enzyme that is implicated in oxidizing low density lipoprotein to its atherogenic form. Monocyte/macrophage 15-lipoxygenase is present in human atherosclerotic lesions. To pursue a basis for induction of the enzyme, which is not present in blood monocytes, the ability of relevant cytokines to regulate its expression was investigated. Interleukin 4 (IL-4), among 16 factors tested, specifically induced 15-lipoxygenase mRNA and protein in cultured human monocytes. Interferon gamma and hydrocortisone inhibited this induction. High-performance liquid chromatography analysis of lipid extracts from IL-4-treated monocytes detected 15-lipoxygenase products esterified to the cellular membrane lipids, indicating enzymatic action on endogenous substrates. Stimulation of IL-4-treated monocytes with calcium ionophore or opsonized zymosan A enhanced the formation of 15-lipoxygenase products. These data identify IL-4 and interferon gamma as physiological regulators of lipoxygenase expression and suggest an important link between 15-lipoxygenase function and the immune/inflammatory response in atherosclerosis as well as other diseases.

Abstract
In contrast to the well-studied role of 5-lipoxygenase in the arachidonic acid cascade that occurs in inflammatory cells, the biological role of the related 15-lipoxygenases in the metabolism of free polyenoic fatty acids is far from clear. However, the activity of 15-lipoxygenases with more complex substrates may play a crucial role in the differentiation and maturation of certain cell types and in the oxidative modification of lipoproteins in the early stages of atherosclerosis.
