Cysteinyl-leukotrienes and prostaglandin D2generated by the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and cyclooxygenase (COX) pathways, respectively, cause bronchoconstriction, leukocyte recruitment, and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthma. We characterized the cellular expression of 5-LO and COX enzymes using immunohistochemistry on bronchial biopsies from 12 allergic asthmatic patients before and during seasonal exposure to birch pollen. Bronchial responsiveness (p = 0.004) and symptoms (p < 0.005) increased and peak expiratory flow (PEF; p ⩽ 0.02) decreased in the pollen season. In-season biopsies had 2-fold more cells immunostaining for 5-LO (p = 0.02), 5-LO–activating protein (FLAP; p = 0.04), and leukotriene (LT)A4hydrolase (p = 0.05), and 4-fold more for the terminal enzyme for cysteinyl-leukotriene synthesis, LTC4synthase (p = 0.02). Immunostaining for COX-1, COX-2, and PGD2synthase was unchanged. Increased staining for LTC4synthase was due to increased eosinophils (p = 0.035) and an increased proportion of eosinophils expressing the enzyme (p = 0.047). Macrophages also increased (p = 0.019), but mast cells and T-lymphocyte subsets were unchanged. Inverse correlations between PEF and 5-LO+cell counts link increased expression of 5-LO pathway enzymes in eosinophils and macrophages within the bronchial mucosa to deterioration of lung function during seasonal allergen exposure.
