In this paper we studied the omega -oxidation of docosanoic acid (C22:0) in rat liver microsomes. C22:0 and 22-hydroxy-docosanoic acid (omega -hydroxy-C22:0) were used as substrates and the reaction products were analyzed by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. In the presence of NADPH, omega -oxidation of C22:0 did not only produce the hydroxylated product, omega -hydroxy-C22:0, but also the dicarboxylic acid of C22:0 (C22:0-DCA). When rat liver microsomes were incubated with omega -hydroxy-C22:0 either in the presence of NAD+ or NADPH, C22:0-DCA was formed readily. Formation of C22:0-DCA either from C22:0 or omega -hydroxy-C22:0 with NADPH as cofactor was inhibited strongly by miconazole and disulfiram, whereas no inhibition was found with NAD+ as cofactor. Furthermore, omega -oxidation of C22:0 was reduced significantly when molecular oxygen was depleted. The high sensitivity towards the more specific P450 inhibitors ketoconazole and 17-octadecynoic acid suggests that hydroxylation of C22:0 and omega -hydroxy-C22:0 may be catalyzed by one or more cytochrome P450 hydroxylases belonging to the CYP4A and/ or 4F subfamily. This study demonstrates that C22:0 is a substrate for the omega -oxidation system in rat liver microsomes and that the product of the first hydroxylation step, omega -hydroxy-C22:0, may undergo further oxidation via two distinct pathways driven by NAD+ or NADPH, respectively.
