PG - 259-64 AB - The effect of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BOOH) on the formation of thromboxane (TX) B2, 12-hydroxy-5,8,10-heptadecatrienoic acid (HHT) and 12-hydroxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE) from exogenous arachidonic acid (AA) in washed rabbit platelets was examined. t-BOOH enhanced TXB2 and HHT formation at concentrations of 8 microM and below, and at 50 microM it inhibited the formation, suggesting that platelet cyclooxygenase activity can be enhanced or inhibited by t-BOOH depending on the concentration. t-BOOH inhibited 12-HETE production in a dose-dependent manner. When the platelets were incubated with 12-hydroperoxy-5,8,10,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (12-HPETE) instead of AA, t-BOOH failed to inhibit the conversion of 12-HPETE to 12-HETE, indicating that the inhibition of 12-HETE formation by t-BOOH occurs at the lipoxygenase step. Studies utilizing indomethacin (a selective cyclooxygenase inhibitor) and desferrioxamine (an iron-chelating agent) revealed that the inhibitory effect of t-BOOH on the lipoxygenase is not mediated through the activation of the cyclooxygenase and that this effect of t-BOOH is due to the hydroperoxy moiety. These results suggest that hydroperoxides play an important role in the control of platelet cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase activities.
