Autocrine prostaglandin E2 signaling promotes tumor cell survival and proliferation in childhood neuroblastoma. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) is an important mediator in tumor-promoting inflammation. High expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) has been detected in the embryonic childhood tumor neuroblastoma, and treatment with COX inhibitors ...

When Poor Exciton Dissociation Limits Photocurrents in Organic Solar Cells: Why Low Offset Non‐Fullerene Acceptor Blends Can't Be Efficient

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The energetic offset between the donor and the acceptor components in organic photoactive layers is central to the tradeoff between photovoltage and photocurrent losses. This Perspective covers the most important issues surrounding this topic in non‐fullerene acceptor blends, from the difficulty of accurately determining state energies and driving ...

PGE stimulates COX-2 expression via EP2/4 receptors and acts in synergy with IL-1β in human follicular dendritic cell-like cells

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inflammation, 2018
PGE 2 is the major lipid mediator of inflammation produced by multiple cell types including follicular dendritic cells (FDCs) of the lymphoid tissue. We have investigated the immunoregulatory function of PGE 2 and its production mechanism using FDC-like ...

Increase in intracellular PGE2 induces apoptosis in Bax-expressing colon cancer cell

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2011
Background NSAIDs exhibit protective properties towards some cancers, especially colon cancer. Yet, it is not clear how they play their protective role. PGE2 is generally shown as the only target of the NSAIDs anticancerous activity.
