Lipoxin A4 (LXA4), an endogenous lipoxygenase-derived eicosanoid mediator, has potent dual pro-resolving and anti-inflammatory properties. Lipoxin A4 inhibits proliferation and inflammatory cytokine/chemokine production of human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) associated with the ERK1/2 and NF-kB pathways. Lipoxin A4 inhibits serum amyloid A (SAA)-mediated IL-8 release with an IC50 value of 25.74 nM.

Description

Lipoxin A4 (LXA4), an endogenous lipoxygenase-derived eicosanoid mediator, has potent dual pro-resolving and anti-inflammatory properties[1]. Lipoxin A4 inhibits proliferation and inflammatory cytokine/chemokine production of human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) associated with the ERK1/2 and NF-kB pathways[2]. Lipoxin A4 inhibits serum amyloid A (SAA)-mediated IL-8 release with an IC50 value of 25.74 nM[3].

In Vitro

Lipoxin A4 (LXA4) inhibits the expression of IL-6 and IL-8 in NHEKs[2].
Lipoxin A4 downregulates the expression of cyclin D1[2].
Lipoxin A4 also suppresses the ERK1/2 phosphorylation and NF-kB-p65 nuclear translocation of NHEKs[2].
LXA4 (100 nM; preincubation for 30 minutes)inhibits the proliferation of NHEKs with or without stimulating by LPS (10 μg/mL)[2].
LXA4 pretreatment (100? nM for 30?minutes) downregulates the LPS-induced secretion and expression of HMGB1 in keratinocytes[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Proliferation Assay[2]

Cell Line: Normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs)
Concentration: 100 nM
Incubation Time: 30 minutes
Result: A significant increase in proliferation of NHEKs after 7 days of stimulation with LPS (10 μg/mL) was seen. However, there was a significant decrease in the proliferation of NHEKs when pretreated with LXA4 for 30 min.

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: Normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs)
Concentration: 100 nM
Incubation Time: 30 minutes.
Result: HMGB1 protein levels in the cytoplasm of NHEKs were induced by LPS, which were decreased after preincubation with LXA4 but decreased in the nucleus after stimulation with LPS.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
