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 کاملContractions of human coronary vessels induced by Prostaglandin E2 are mediated via EP3 receptor and modulated by perivascular adipose tissue
Introduction: Most of the blood vessels are surrounded by perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) which could regulate vascular functions. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) released by PVAT could regulate vascular tone depending on which PGE2 receptors (EP) are expressed by the vessel (vasocontriction via EP1 / EP3, vasodilatation via EP2 / EP4 receptors). During vascular pathologies associated with inflammat...
متن کاملImportance of adipocyte cyclooxygenase-2 and prostaglandin E2-prostaglandin E receptor 3 signaling in the development of obesity-induced adipose tissue inflammation and insulin resistance.
We examined the involvement of adipocyte cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-prostaglandin E receptor (EP)3-mediated signaling during hypertrophy and hypoxia in the development of obesity-associated adipose tissue (AT) inflammation and insulin resistance. The experiments were conducted with high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese rats, db/db mice, human subjects, and 3T3-L1 and the h...
متن کاملProstaglandin E2 Exerts Multiple Regulatory Actions on Human Obese Adipose Tissue Remodeling, Inflammation, Adaptive Thermogenesis and Lipolysis
Obesity induces white adipose tissue (WAT) dysfunction characterized by unremitting inflammation and fibrosis, impaired adaptive thermogenesis and increased lipolysis. Prostaglandins (PGs) are powerful lipid mediators that influence the homeostasis of several organs and tissues. The aim of the current study was to explore the regulatory actions of PGs in human omental WAT collected from obese p...
متن کاملEffect of cimaterol on sheep adipose tissue lipid metabolism.
Effects of dietary cimaterol (5 mg/kg) on adipose tissue metabolism of wether lambs were studied. Lipogenesis, lipolysis, fatty acid composition and adipocyte size and number were measured. Cimaterol feeding increased lipogenesis; however, this effect was not statistically significant. Insulin (1,000 microU/ml) stimulated lipogenesis of adipose tissue from control sheep. However, this elevated ...
