LC-MS/MS analysis of HXB3, 12-HETE, or 15-HETE formation from AA reveals multiple isozyme targets of 5-, 12- and 15-LOX inhibitors. 12, Alox12; 12b, Alox12b; 12e, Alox12e; e3, Aloxe3; 15, Alox15; 15b, Alox15b; conc, concentration. +, significant inhibition of either HXB3 or 12-HETE; ++, significant inhibition of both HXB3 and 12-HETE; −, no change;
, significant inhibition of eLOX3-mediated production of HXB3 observed at 100 μM NDGA. n = 4 wells/treatment.
P < 0.01,
P < 0.001 vs. vehicle (0.1% DMSO) plus AA.
