摘要:: Detectable levels (greater than or equal to 0.2 pmol/10(6) cells) of one or more prostanoid species resultant to calcium ionophore A23187-induced biosynthesis from endogenous arachidonic acid were distributed in 28 cell lines derived from different histological classes of lung tumors as follows: large cell undifferentiated carcinoma (3 of 3 cell lines); adenosquamous carcinoma (1 of 2 cell lines); squamous cell carcinoma (0 of 2 cell lines); adenocarcinoma (9 of 10 cell lines); bronchioloalveolar cell carcinoma (2 of 2 cell lines); and small cell carcinoma (1 of 9 cell lines). Using the mean levels of 9 alpha,11 beta-prostaglandin F2, prostaglandin F2 alpha, prostaglandin D2, prostaglandin E2, thromboxane B2 and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha as an index of prostaglandin H (PGH) synthase activity, the distribution in cell lines representative of the different histological classes of human lung tumors exhibiting PGH synthase activity exceeding mean values greater than or equal to 2 pmol/10(6) cells was as follows: large cell undifferentiated carcinoma (3 of 3 cell lines), adenosquamous carcinoma (1 of 2 cell lines), adenocarcinoma (8 of 10) cell lines), bronchioloalveolar cell carcinoma (2 of 2 cell lines) and small cell carcinoma (0 of 9 cell lines). Three different prostanoid species accumulated to mean levels greater than or equal to 2 pmol/10(6) cells. Prostaglandin E2 levels exceeded 2 pmol/10(6) cells in 14 of the 16 cell lines in which this prostanoid accumulated to detectable levels. Cumulative levels of prostaglandin F2 alpha exceeded 2 pmol/10(6) cells in 9 of the 15 cell lines in which prostaglandin F2 alpha reached detectable levels. Detectable levels of thromboxane B2 were observed in five cell lines with thromboxane B2 accumulation exceeding 2 pmol/10(6) cells in two of the five cell lines. 9 alpha,11 beta-prostaglandin F2 and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha accumulated to detectable levels in the culture medium of one cell line, while prostaglandin D2 accumulation to detectable levels was observed in two cell lines. Stimulation of cultured human lung tumor cells exhibiting PGH synthase activity greater than or equal to 2 pmol/10(6) cells in the presence of 10(-5) M exogenous arachidonic acid resulted in a 2- to 4-fold increase in the accumulation of individual prostanoids, while the inclusion of a 10(-5) M exogenous concentration of arachidonic acid failed to stimulate detectable prostanoid production in human lung tumor cells in which PGH synthase activity was not previously expressed.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
