Arg-Vasotocin Directly Activates Isotocin Receptors and Induces COX2 Expression in Ovoviviparous Guppies

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Oxytocin (OT) is a crucial regulator of reproductive behaviors, including parturition in mammals. Arg-vasopressin (AVP) is a nonapeptide homologous to Arg-vasotocin (AVT) in teleosts that has comparable affinity for the OT receptor. In the present study,

Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin B regulates prostaglandin E-2 synthesis, growth, and migration in nasal tissue fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background. Superantigens and eicosanoids are important amplifiers and regulators of inflammation in airway diseases. We therefore studied the possible influence of Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin B ( SEB) on the cyclooxygenase ( COX) pathway and basic

Methyl Salicylate Lactoside Protects Neurons Ameliorating Cognitive Disorder Through Inhibiting Amyloid Beta-Induced Neuroinflammatory Response in Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2018
Neuroinflammatory reactions mediated by microglia and astrocytes have been shown to play a key role in early progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Increased evidences have demonstrated that neurons exacerbate local inflammatory reactions by producing ...

Different Chemical Structures and Physiological/Pathological Roles of Cyclooxygenases

open access: yesRambam Maimonides Medical Journal, 2021
This review describes cyclooxygenase (COX), which synthesizes prostanoids that play an important role in living things. The authors conducted a national and international literature review on the subject.

Common promoter variant in cyclooxygenase-2 represses gene expression: evidence of role in acute-phase inflammatory response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Objective: Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 is a key regulatory enzyme in the synthesis of prostanoids associated with trauma and inflammation. We investigated the COX-2 gene for functional variants that may influence susceptibility to disease.

POTENSI KOMBINASI EKSTRAK AKAR SIDAGURI (Sida rhombifolia L.) DAN GETAH JARAK (Jatropha curcas L.) SEBAGAI BAHAN DEVITALISASI

open access: yesODONTO: Dental Journal, 2019
Background: Arsenic paste was used to devitalize dental pulp in some problems before surgical, but it has been proven to have many hazardous effects. So, other alternative drugs are needed that are equally effective but safer. Jatropha (Jatropha curcas L.

Effect of Cyclooxygenase(COX)-1 and COX-2 inhibition on furosemide-induced renal responses and isoform immunolocalization in the healthy cat kidney [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: The role of cyclooxygenase(COX)-1 and COX-2 in the saluretic and renin-angiotensin responses to loop diuretics in the cat is unknown. We propose in vivo characterisation of isoform roles in a furosemide model by administering non-steroidal ...
