FIGURE 4

Differential regulation of lipid mediator (LM) biosynthetic pathways in COPD patients with frequent exacerbations, compared with stable COPD patients. Analysis highlighting the relative regulation of mediators identified in figure 3 with VIP scores >1 and their biosynthetic pathways in stable COPD patients, compared with patients with exacerbations. Downregulation of ALOX5–ALOX15 pathways was observed in patients with frequent exacerbations, compared with stable COPD patients. There was general downregulation of the following LMs (lower abundance) in COPD patients with exacerbations (versus stable COPD patients): PGE₂, 15-epi-LXA₄, LXB₄, 5S, 15S-diHETE, 5S-12S-diHETE, RvE2, PDX, RvD1, RvD2, RvD3, RvD5 and 17R-RvD3, n3-RvD3. DHA: docosahexaenoic acid; n3-DPA: n3-docosapentaenoic acid; EPA: eicosapentaenoic acid; AA: arachidonic acid; LOX: lipoxygenase; COX: cyclooxygenase; CYP450: cytochromes P450; ALOX: arachidonate lipoxygenase; PG: prostaglandin; epi: epimer; LX: lipoxin; diHETE, dihydroxy-eicosatetraenoic acid; PDX: protecin DX (also referred to as 10S, 17S-dihydroxydocosahexaenoic acid (diHDHA)); Rv: resolvin.
