Obesity is a health problem worldwide, and brown adipose tissue (BAT) is important for 38 energy expenditure. Here, we explored the role of leukotriene A4 hydrolase (LTA4H), a key 39 enzyme in the synthesis of the lipid mediator leukotriene B4 (LTB4), in diet-induced 40 obesity. LTA4H-deficient (LTA4H-KO) mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) showed a lean 41 phenotype, and bone-marrow transplantation studies revealed that LTA4H-deficiency in 42 non-hematopoietic cells was responsible for this lean phenotype. LTA4H-KO mice 43 exhibited greater energy expenditure, but similar food intake and fecal energy loss. LTA4H-44 KO BAT showed higher expression of thermogenesis-related genes. In addition, the plasma 45 thyroid-stimulating hormone and thyroid hormone concentrations, as well as HFD-induced 46 catecholamine secretion, were higher in LTA4H-KO mice. By contrast, LTB4 receptor 47 (BLT1)-deficient mice did not show a lean phenotype, implying that the phenotype of 48 LTA4H-KO mice is independent of the LTB4/BLT1 axis. These results indicate that LTA4H 49 mediates diet-induced obesity by reducing catecholamine and thyroid hormone secretion. 50 51
