| Abstract | 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) has been reported to promote mitogenicity in a variety of cell types, including renal epithelial cells. However, the signal transduction pathways activated by 20-HETE have not been fully defined. The present study evaluated the effects of 20-HETE and its more stable agonist analogs 20-hydroxyeicosa-5(Z),14(Z)-dienoic acid (5,14-20-HEDE) and N-[20-hydroxyeicosa-5(Z),14(Z)-dienoyl]glycine (5,14-20-HEDGE) on the Raf/MEK/ERK and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-Akt pathway in LLC-PK(1) renal epithelial cells. 20-HETE (20 microM) increased phosphorylation of Raf-1 (2.5 +/- 0.2-fold), MEK1/2 (6.3 +/- 1.6-fold), and ERK1/2 (5.8 +/- 0.3-fold) compared with vehicle-treated cells. Similarly, the 20-HETE analogs also strongly activated ERK1/2 in a Raf-1- and MEK1/2-dependent manner. Moreover, 5,14-20-HEDE increased Akt phosphorylation by 2.2 +/- 0.3-fold. 20-HETE and 5,14-20-HEDE also promoted activation (Y1086) of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR; Y1086) by 1.9 +/- 0.2- and 2.5 +/- 0.2-fold, respectively. These effects were completely blocked by the EGFR inhibitor EKB-569 (0.1 microM). Moreover, EKB-569 (0.1 microM), as well as a c-Src inhibitor, SKI-606 (0.05 microM), completely abolished the 20-HETE-mediated activation of the Raf/MEK/ERK and PI3K-Akt pathways. Blockade of PKC with bisindolylmaleimide I had no effect on 20-HETE-induced ERK1/2 activation. This study demonstrated that 20-HETE activated the Raf/MEK/ERK and Akt pathways in renal epithelial cells secondary to the activation of c-Src and EGFR. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
