Recent data suggest that -3 fatty acids may be
effective in epilepsy, cardiovascular disorders, arthritis, and
as mood stabilizers for bipolar disorder; however, the mechanism of
action of these compounds is unknown. Based on earlier studies
implicating -3 fatty acids as inhibitors of protein kinase C
activity in intact cells, we hypothesized that -3 fatty acids may
act through direct inhibition of second messenger-regulated kinases and
sought to determine whether the -3 double bond might uniquely confer
pharmacologic efficacy and potency for fatty acids of this type. In our
studies we observed that -3 fatty acids inhibited the in
vitro activities of cAMP-dependent protein kinase,
protein kinase C, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase
II, and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Our results
with a series of long-chain fatty acid structural homologs suggest an
important role for the -3 double bond in conferring inhibitory
efficacy. To assess whether -3 fatty acids were capable of
inhibiting protein kinases in living neurons, we evaluated their effect
on signal transduction pathways in the hippocampus. We found that -3
fatty acids could prevent serotonin receptor-induced MAPK activation in
hippocampal slice preparations. In addition, we evaluated the effect of
-3 fatty acids on hippocampal long-term potentiation, a form of
synaptic plasticity known to be dependent on protein kinase activation. We observed that -3 fatty acids blocked long-term
potentiation induction without inhibiting basal synaptic transmission.
Overall, our results from both in vitro and live
cell preparations suggest that inhibition of second messenger-regulated
protein kinases is one locus of action of -3 fatty acids.
