Consequences of altered eicosanoid patterns for nociceptive processing in mPGES-1-deficient mice [PDF]
, 2007 Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)-dependent prostaglandin (PG) E2 synthesis in the spinal cord plays a major role in the development of inflammatory hyperalgesia and allodynia. Microsomal PGE2 synthase-1 (mPGES-1) isomerizes COX-2-derived PGH2 to PGE2.

Effect of prostaglandin A1 in the induction of stress proteins in Aedes albopictus cells
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1998 Prostaglandins are natural fatty acid derivatives with diverse physiological effects, including immune function and the control of cell growth. While the action of prostaglandins in the induction of stress proteins in vertebrate cells is well documented,

Sigma-Class Glutathione Transferases (GSTσ): A New Target with Potential for Helminth Control
Tropical Medicine and Infectious DiseaseGlutathione transferases (GSTs EC 2.5.1.18) are critical components of phase II metabolism, instrumental in xenobiotics’ metabolism. Their primary function involves conjugating glutathione to both endogenous and exogenous toxic compounds, which increases

Interplay between the prostaglandin transporter OATP2A1 and prostaglandin E2-mediated cellular effects. [PDF]
, 2015 Prostaglandins such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) play a pivotal role in physiological and pathophysiological pathways in gastric mucosa. Little is known about the interrelation of the prostaglandin E (EP) receptors with the prostaglandin transporter ...
