Arachidonoylcholine and Other Unsaturated Long-Chain Acylcholines Are Endogenous Modulators of the Acetylcholine Signaling System

Cholines acylated with unsaturated fatty acids are a recently discovered family of endogenous lipids. However, the data on the biological activity of acylcholines remain very limited. We hypothesized that acylcholines containing residues of arachidonic (AA-CHOL), oleic (Ol-CHOL), linoleic (Ln-CHOL),...

description Cholines acylated with unsaturated fatty acids are a recently discovered family of endogenous lipids. However, the data on the biological activity of acylcholines remain very limited. We hypothesized that acylcholines containing residues of arachidonic (AA-CHOL), oleic (Ol-CHOL), linoleic (Ln-CHOL), and docosahexaenoic (DHA-CHOL) acids act as modulators of the acetylcholine signaling system. In the radioligand binding assay, acylcholines showed inhibition in the micromolar range of both &#945;7 neuronal nAChR overexpressed in GH4C1 cells and muscle type nAChR from Torpedo<i> </i><i>californica</i>, as well as Lymnaea stagnalis acetylcholine binding protein. Functional response was checked in two cell lines endogenously expressing &#945;7 nAChR. In SH-SY5Y cells, these compounds did not induce Ca<sup>2+</sup> rise, but inhibited the acetylcholine-evoked Ca<sup>2+</sup> rise with IC<sub>50</sub> 9 to 12 &#956;M. In the A549 lung cancer cells, where &#945;7 nAChR activation stimulates proliferation, Ol-CHOL, Ln-CHOL, and AA-CHOL dose-dependently decreased cell viability by up to 45%. AA-CHOL inhibited human erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and horse serum butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) by a mixed type mechanism with <i>K</i><sub>i </sub>=<i> </i>16.7 &#177; 1.5 &#956;M and <i>&#945;K</i><sub>i </sub>=<i> </i>51.4 &#177; 4.1 &#956;M for AChE and <i>K</i><sub>i </sub>=<i> </i>70.5 &#177; 6.3 &#956;M and <i>&#945;K</i><sub>i </sub>=<i> </i>214 &#177; 17 &#956;M for BChE, being a weak substrate of the last enzyme only, agrees with molecular docking results. Thus, long-chain unsaturated acylcholines could be viewed as endogenous modulators of the acetylcholine signaling system.
