The 5-LOX/COX-2 cross-over metabolite, hemiketal E <sub>2</sub> , enhances VEGFR2 activation and promotes angiogenesis
2022-05-13
Abstract excerpt
Consecutive oxygenation of arachidonic acid by 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) yields the hemiketal (HK) eicosanoids, HKE 2 and HKD 2 . HKs stimulate angiogenesis by inducing endothelial cell tubulogenesis in culture; however, how this process is regulated has not been determined. Here, we identify vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) as a mediator of HKE 2 -induced angioge...
