Abstract:
1 The blocker of endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, 2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone (BHQ) was shown to inhibit formation of prostaglandin E2 and prostacyclin in the osteoblast-like cell lines, MC3T3-E1 and ROS 17/2.8, respectively, in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 of 0.5-1 microM. Inhibition was observed with various stimuli (arachidonic acid, bradykinin, melittin and calcium ionophore, A23187). 2 This effect was also observed in human platelets, where BHQ dose-dependently blocked thromboxane biosynthesis and formation of 12-hydroxy-heptadecatrienoic acid after stimulation with arachidonic acid, but not formation of 12-hydroxy-eicosatetraenoic acid. 3 Inhibition of prostaglandin E2 formation in MC3T3-E1 cells was not observed with thapsigargin after stimulation with arachidonic acid, A23187 or melittin, whereas bradykinin-induced prostaglandin E2 biosynthesis was blocked. 4 Taken together, the results suggest a direct inhibitory action of BHQ on the cyclo-oxygenase in these three cell systems.
