Regulation of connective tissue growth factor expression by prostaglandin E2.
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) stimulates α1(I) collagen mRNA synthesis in human lung fibroblasts through a mechanism that is partially sensitive to cycloheximide and that may involve synthesis of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). Northern blot analyses indicate that TGF-β stimulates time- and dose-dependent increases in CTGF mRNA. In TGF-β-stimulated fibroblasts, maximal levels of ...
متن کاملProstaglandin E2 in Soluble Factor-Mediated Immune Suppression by First Trimester Decidual Cells
Several studies have shown that decidual tissue produces soluble factors which can mediate a variety of immunosuppressive activities. In order to assess whether prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) was present in supernatants produced by explant culture of 10 human specimens of first trimester decidua. The effect of the supernatants from the two different series (with and without indomethacin treatment) ...
متن کاملIdentification of prostaglandin E2 receptor subtype 2 as a receptor activated by OxPAPC.
Oxidized 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine (OxPAPC), which has been shown to accumulate in atherosclerotic lesions and other sites of chronic inflammation, activates endothelial cells (EC) to bind monocytes by activation of endothelial beta1 integrin and subsequent deposition of fibronectin on the apical surface. Our previous studies suggest this function of OxPAPC is me...
متن کاملRegulation of immune responses by prostaglandin E2.
PGE(2), an essential homeostatic factor, is also a key mediator of immunopathology in chronic infections and cancer. The impact of PGE(2) reflects the balance between its cyclooxygenase 2-regulated synthesis and 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase-driven degradation and the pattern of expression of PGE(2) receptors. PGE(2) enhances its own production but suppresses acute inflammatory mediator...
متن کاملRegulation of macrophage tumor necrosis factor production by prostaglandin E2.
We have studied the role of prostaglandin E2 on the modulation of tumor necrosis factor by immunologically elicited and lipopolysaccharide treated murine macrophages. Indomethacin, a potent inhibitor of prostaglandin E2 production, caused a dose dependent augmentation of lipopolysaccharide induced tumor necrosis factor production (2-3 fold at 10(-7) molar). Tumor necrosis factor was released in...
