- W2895988052 abstract "Asthma is associated with the overproduction of leukotrienes (LTs), including LTB4. Patients with severe asthma can be highly responsive to 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) inhibition, which blocks production of both the cysteinyl LTs and LTB4. Production of LTB4 has traditionally been ascribed to neutrophils, mononuclear phagocytes, and epithelial cells, and acts as a chemoattractant for inflammatory cells associated with asthma. The source of LTB4 is unclear, especially in eosinophilic asthma. We speculated that the benefit of 5-LO inhibition could be mediated in part by inhibition of eosinophil-derived LTB4. LTB4 concentrations were assayed in BAL fluid from patients with severe asthma characterized by isolated neutrophilic, eosinophilic, and paucigranulocytic inflammation. Expression of LTA4 hydrolase (LTA4H) by airway eosinophils was determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Subsequently, peripheral blood eosinophils were activated and secreted LTB4 was quantified by enzyme immunoassay. Blood eosinophil LTA4H expression was determined by flow cytometry, qPCR, and IHC. LTB4 concentrations were elevated in BAL fluid from patients with severe asthma, including those with isolated eosinophilic inflammation, and these eosinophils displayed LTA4H via IHC. LTA4H expression by blood eosinophils was confirmed by flow cytometry, IHC, and qPCR. Robust LTB4 production by blood eosinophils was observed in response to some, but not all, stimuli. We demonstrated that eosinophils express LTA4H transcripts and protein, and can be stimulated to secrete LTB4. We speculate that in many patients with asthma, eosinophil-derived LTB4 is increased, and this may contribute to the efficacy of 5-LO inhibition." @default.
