Human mast cells take up and hydrolyze anandamide under the control of 5‐lipoxygenase and do not express cannabinoid receptors
[摘要] Human mast cells (HMC-1) take up anandamide (arachidonoyl-ethanolamide, AEA) with a saturable process (K m=200±20 nM, V max=25±3 pmol min−1 mg protein−1), enhanced two-fold over control by nitric oxide-donors. Internalized AEA was hydrolyzed by a fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), whose activity became measurable only in the presence of 5-lipoxygenase, but not cyclooxygenase, inhibitors. FAAH (K m=5.0±0.5 μM, V max=160±15 pmol min−1 mg protein−1) was competitively inhibited by palmitoylethanolamide. HMC-1 cells did not display a functional cannabinoid receptor on their surface and neither AEA nor palmitoylethanolamide affected tryptase release from these cells.
