Popis: Although it is now recognized that low levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are required for the mitogenic response, mitogen-induced signalling pathways that regulate ROS generation in non-phagocytic cells remain largely uncharacterized. Using a real-time assay for measuring hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) formation, we analysed H(2)O(2) release in human HaCaT keratinocytes in response to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a mitogen for keratinocytes. LPA rapidly increased H(2)O(2) release in HaCaT cells. Unlike LPA-induced mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activation, LPA-stimulated H(2)O(2) release was independent of the tyrosine kinase activity of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor. Calcium chelators, phospholipase A(2) inhibitors, and lipoxygenase inhibitors effectively blocked LPA-stimulated H(2)O(2) release, whereas cyclooxygenase inhibitors were without effect. Addition of 5-lipoxygenase products 5-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HPETE) and leukotriene B(4), but not 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) and leukotriene C(4), restored LPA-stimulated H(2)O(2) release in cells treated with the lipoxygenase inhibitors nordihydroguaiaretic acid and Zileuton. These results suggest that the lipoxygenase products 5-HPETE and leukotriene B(4) are required for LPA-stimulated H(2)O(2) release in HaCaT cells.
