Expression of E-prostanoid receptors in nasal polyp tissues of smoking and nonsmoking patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Different inflammatory reactions have been observed in the polyp tissues of nonsmokers and smokers with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). E-prostanoid (EP) receptors play a role in the inflammatory processes.

Expression of Prostaglandin E Receptors in Acquired Middle Ear Cholesteatoma [PDF]
Objectives To investigate the expression of prostaglandin E2 receptor subtypes, E-prostanoid (EP) 1–4 receptors, in acquired cholesteatoma and its possible role in the pathologic process of this disorder. Methods Specimens of human acquired cholesteatoma

Characterisation of bovine leukocyte Ig-like receptors [PDF]
Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are innate immune receptors involved in regulating both innate and adaptive immune functions. LILR show more interspecies conservation than the closely related Killer Ig-like receptors, and homologues have ...

EP receptor expression in human intestinal epithelium and localization relative to the stem cell zone of the crypts. [PDF]
There is substantial evidence for PGE2 affecting intestinal epithelial proliferation. PGE2 is also reported to be involved in the regulation of growth and differentiation in adult stem cells, both effects mediated by binding to EP-receptors. We have used

The role of EP-2 receptor expression in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia [PDF]
AbstractProstaglandin induced signalling is involved in different cancers. As previously described, the EP3 receptor expression decreases with increasing stage of cervical intraepithelial lesions (CIN). In addition, in cervical cancer EP3 is an independent prognosticator for overall survival and correlates with FIGO stages.

Targeting Prostaglandin E EP Receptors to Inhibit Metastasis [PDF]
Abstract It is well established that high cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression contributes to the aggressive behavior of breast and other malignancies. Due to concerns regarding the safety of long-term use of COX-2 inhibitors as well as a desire to seek more effective alternatives to prevent and treat metastatic disease, we tested the ...

mRNA Expression of VEGF and Its Receptors in Fallopian Tubes of Women with Ectopic Pregnancies [PDF]
Background Establishment of viable pregnancy requires embryo implantation and placentation. Ectopic pregnancy (EP) is a pregnancy complication which occurs when an embryo implants outside of the uterine cavity, most often in a fallopian tube.

The Coxib case: Are EP receptors really guilty? [PDF]
The effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) originate from the inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX), which converts arachidonic acid (AA) to prostaglandin H2 (PGH2). COX consists of two isoforms, called COX-1 and COX-2. Increasing drug selectivity for COX-2 is associated with higher CV risk.
