Endocannabinoids appear to be involved in a variety of physiological processes. Lipoxygenase activity has been known to be affected by unsaturated fatty acids or phenolic compounds. In this study, we examined whether endocannabinoids containing both N-acyl group and phenolic group can affect the activity of soybean lipoxygenase (LOX)-1, similar to mammalian 15-lipoxygenase in physicochemical properties. First, N-arachidonoyl dopamine and N-oleoyl dopamine were found to inhibit soybean LOX-1-catalyzed oxygenation of linoleic acid in a non-competitive manner with a Ki value of 3.7 ¦ÌM and 6.2 ¦ÌM, respectively. Meanwhile, other endocannabinoids failed to show a remarkable inhibition of soybean LOX-1. Separately, N-arachidonoyl dopamine and N-arachidonoyl serotonin were observed to inactivate soybean LOX-1 with Kin value of 27 ¦ÌM and 24 ¦ÌM, respectively, and k3 value of 0.12 min?1 and 0.35 min?1, respectively. Furthermore, such an inactivation was enhanced by ascorbic acid, but suppressed by 13(S)-hydroperoxy-9,11-octadecadienoic acid. Taken together, it is proposed that endocannabinoids containing polyunsaturated acyl moiety and phenolic group may be efficient for the inhibition as well as inactivation of 15-lipoxygenase.
