13 )oõ/ Summary Natural polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) were synthesized and assessed as potential anti-inflammatory agents. B-oxa, B-thia and y-thia PUFA were found to inhibit T lymphocyte responses in vitro, assessed as lymphoproliferation as well as production of tumour necrosis factor-b (llnfp), interferon-y (IFNY) and interleúkin-2 (IL-2). Threee of these compounds were studied in detail and found to be more active than the inhibition seen with fish oil fatty acid 22:6n-3. Interestingly these compounds unlike 22:6n-3 were poor stimulators of the human neutrophil respiratory burst, an additional advantage in their use as anti-inflammatory agents. Examination of one of these three, p-oxa 2I:3n-3, in in vivo models of chronic and acute inflammation showed that the fatty acids was highly inhibitory in both types of inflammatory responses. Thus the B-oxa 27:3n-3 inhibited the footpad swelling induced by sheep red blood cell antigens in a delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) reaction as well as in the caffageenaninduced paw inflammation. This finding with DTH which is dependent on T lymphocytes is consistent with the ability of p-oxa 2l:3n-3 to inhibit Thl type cytokine production. While the reason for its effects on the caíageenan induced inflammation are less clea in this involves predominantly neutrophil infiltration, this reaction also has some T cell dependency. Studies on tissue distribution of the fatty acid, showed that B-oxa 2I:3n-3 was incorporated into membrane phospholipids of liver and blood cells. Preliminary toxicology studies also demonstrated that B- oxa2l:3n-3 was well tolerated by the animals as several chemical and biochemical parameters of liver and kidney function remained within the normal range. The mechanism of inhibition of T lymphocyte responses were in the main identified. The B-oxa 2l:3n-3 acted at a post receptor level affecting signals modules critical for lymphocyte
14 )0Õ/l activation and cytokine production. The fatty acid caused inhibition of pha-pma induced translocation of PKC-BI and PKC-e, but not PKC-cr, PKC-BII or pkc-o. This was further delineated to show inhibition of downstream ERK pathway activation but not the JNK or p3g pathways. This work has identified a new class of anti-inflammatory compounds which are based on PUFA. The action of the fatty acids is through the selective inhibition of the pkc-bl/e and ERK signalling module.
