Research Abstract

A purpose of this study was to clarify the physiological and pathological functions of a G-protein coupled receptor called G2A, and was to investigate the basic aspects of G2A signaling to establish new diagnosis / therapy. G2A is a receptor which ligands are oxidative flee fatty acids such as 9-HODE and 11-HETE derived from linoleic acid or arachidonic acid, respectively. It was reported that G2Awas induced by various DNA damage stimulation and its stimulation causes arrest of cell cycle. However, the physiological function of G2Awas unidentified.
As skin is routinely and pathologically exposed to many oxidative stresses such as UV radiation, chemical agents, and inflammation that might induce both G2A expression and production of G2A ligands, we examined G2A fraction in human keratinocytes. G2A was expressed in human epidermis and normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEK). 9-HODE evoked intracellular calcium mobilization, and secretion of cytokines including IL-6, IL-8, and GM-CSF in NHEK cells. These responses became prominent in HaCaT cells, an immortalized human keratinocyte cell line, by overexpression of G2A. 9-HODE further inhibited proliferation of NHEK cells by suppressing DNA synthesis and arresting the cell cycle in the G0/1-phase, and down-regulation of G2A expression by small interfering RNA caused suppression of 9-HODE-induced effects on proliferation of NHEK cells 13-HODE, much weaker ligand of G2A, did not show any effects on either cytokine secretion and proliferation in NHEK cells. On the other hand, UVB and hydrogen peroxide induced G2A expression and caused oxidation of linoleate to produce 9-HODE in HaCaT cells.
These results suggest that 9-HODE-G2A signaling plays proinflammatory roles in skin under oxidative conditions.
