In Silico screening of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and their combined action on Prostaglandin H Synthase-1 [PDF]
The detailed kinetic model of Prostaglandin H Synthase-1 (PGHS-1) was applied to in silico screening of dose-dependencies for the different types of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as: reversible/irreversible, nonselective/selective ...

Prostaglandin E synthase is regulated in postnatal mouse testis
Prostaglandins have important roles in the male reproductive system. In this study, we report on the distribution and regulation of cPGES during postnatal development of mouse testis. The expression of cPGES was weak in testis 5 days after birth and increased through the 10th and 15th day.

Vasoconstrictor prostanoids [PDF]
In cardiovascular diseases and during aging, endothelial dysfunction is due in part to the release of endothelium-derived contracting factors that counteract the vasodilator effect of the nitric oxide.

To determine if changes in endometrial expression of the enzymes and receptors involved in prostaglandin (PG) synthesis and action might provide insights into the PGs involved in the initiation of decidualization, ovariectomized steroid-treated rats at ...

Elevated microsomal prostaglandin‐E synthase‐1 in Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
BackgroundThe proinflammatory prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) fluctuates over time in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the cerebral distribution and expression patterns of microsomal prostaglandin‐E synthase (mPGES)–1 have not been compared with those of normal human brains.MethodsMiddle frontal gyrus tissue from AD and ...

Prostaglandins induce early growth response 1 transcription factor mediated microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase up-regulation for colorectal cancer progression [PDF]
Cyclooxygenase2 (COX2) has been associated with cell growth, invasiveness, tumor progression and metastasis of colorectal carcinomas. However, the downstream prostaglandin (PG)-PG receptor pathway involved in these effects is poorly characterized.

Endothelial dysfunction: A strategic target in the treatment of hypertension? [PDF]
Endothelial dysfunction is a common feature of hypertension, and it results from the imbalanced release of endothelium-derived relaxing factors (EDRFs; in particular, nitric oxide) and endothelium-derived contracting factors (EDCFs; angiotensin II ...

Prostaglandin (PGE) 2 is the most common prostanoid and plays an important role in female reproduction. The aim of this study was to examine the expression and regulation of microsomal (m) PGE synthase (PGES)-1 and cytosolic (c) PGES in the mouse ovary ...

Inducible Prostaglandin E Synthase as a Pharmacological Target for Ischemic Stroke
As the inducible terminal enzyme for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis, microsomal PGE synthase-1 (mPGES-1) contributes to neuroinflammation and secondary brain injury after cerebral ischemia via producing excessive PGE2. However, a proof of concept that mPGES-1 is a therapeutic target for ischemic stroke has not been established by a pharmacological ...
