An observational study comparing two regimens of PGE2 gel for pre-induction cervical ripening at term [PDF]

New Indian Journal of OBGYN
Objectives: The objective of this study was to compare the outcome in between two groups, one group receiving a 6 hourly repeat regimen (maximum 2 such) and another group receiving a 12 hourly repeat regimen of prostaglandin E 2 gel (maximum 2 such ...

Expression of mRNA for phospholipase A(2), cyclooxygenases, and lipoxygenases in cultured human umbilical vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells and in biopsies from umbilical arteries and veins [PDF]

, 1998
Arachidonic acid (AA) is released by phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and then converted into vasoactive and inflammatory eicosanoids by cyclooxygenases (COX) and lipoxygenases (LOX).

GOT1 Inhibition Induces Extracellular Matrix Remodeling in Pancreatic Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using tumor tissue engineering, we recreated pancreatic cancer and found that inhibiting glutamic‐oxaloacetic transaminase 1 (GOT1) induces extracellular matrix remodeling and secretome rewiring, as well as promotes cell death. ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer cells rely on glutamine to sustain their survival in the stiff and poorly vascularized tumor ...

Caspase‐3/GSDME‐Mediated Trophoblast Pyroptosis and Reciprocal Macrophage Polarization Contribute to Inflammation in Early‐Onset Preeclampsia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In trophoblast cells, T/S (TNFα + SM164) activated caspase‐3, which cleaved GSDME to switch apoptosis to pyroptosis, causing cell swelling, membrane rupture, and release of LDH, HMGB1, IL‐1β and IL‐18. These cytokines induced pro‐inflammatory macrophage polarization, which in turn reinforced pyroptotic signaling in trophoblasts, amplifying systemic ...

Upregulation of Cyclooxygenase-2/Prostaglandin E (COX-2/PGE) Pathway Member Multiple Drug Resistance-Associated Protein 4 (MRP4) and Downregulation of Prostaglandin Transporter (PGT) and 15-Prostaglandin Dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Breast Cancer: Basic and Clinical Research, 2016
Elevated levels of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ) are indicators of a poor prognosis in breast cancer. Using several independent publicly available breast cancer gene expression databases, we investigated other members of the PGE

Baboon-to-human liver transplantation [PDF]

, 1993
Our ability to control both the cellular and humoral components of xenograft rejection in laboratory experiments, together with an organ shortage that has placed limits on clinical transplantation services, prompted us to undertake a liver ...

Gut Bacterium Lysinibacillus Sphaericus Exacerbates Aspirin‐induced Intestinal Injury by Production of Carboxylesterase EstB

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic overview illustrating the detrimental role of gut microbiota in aspirin‐induced intestinal injury. L. sphaericus and its secreted carboxylesterase EstB are identified as key drivers that catalyze aspirin hydrolysis into salicylic acid, thereby exacerbating intestinal injury. Inhibition of EstB by the dietary compound flavanomarein effectively

Variation of inflammatory dynamics and mediators in primiparous cows after intramammary challenge with Escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2011
The objective of the current study was to investigate (i) the outcome of experimentally induced Escherichia coli mastitis in primiparous cows during early lactation in relation with production of eicosanoids and inflammatory indicators, and (ii) the ...

Mechanisms of Aristolochic Acid Resistance in Specialist Butterflies and Evolutionary Insights for Potential Protective Pathways

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study provides an extreme example of insect adaptation to highly toxic defenses of host plants, and investigates the complex strategies to resist carcinogenic aristolochic acids, including physical isolation, metabolic detoxification, and DNA repair.
