The Action of Reproductive Fluids and Contained Steroids, Prostaglandins, and Zn2+ on CatSper Ca2+ Channels in Human Sperm

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
The sperm-specific Ca2+ channel CatSper registers chemical cues that assist human sperm to fertilize the egg. Prime examples are progesterone and prostaglandin E1 that activate CatSper without involving classical nuclear and G protein-coupled receptors ...

Metformin attenuates high-fat diet induced metabolic syndrome related osteoarthritis through inhibition of prostaglandins

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
High-fat diet induces bone marrow inflammation and osteoarthritis phenotype in knee joint, but the underlying mechanisms is unknown. Here, we report that high-fat diet induces aberrant bone formation and cartilage degeneration in knee joint ...

The calcium-sensing receptor modulates the prostaglandin E2 pathway in intestinal inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: The prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) pathway is one of the main mediators of intestinal inflammation. As activation of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) induces expression of inflammatory markers in the colon, we assessed the impact of the CaSR on

Effect of prostaglandin analogues on central corneal thickness in patients with glaucoma: A systematic review and meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
The objective of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of prostaglandin analogues (PGA) on central corneal thickness (CCT) in patients with glaucoma. Key electronic databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving the CCT

Mixed messages: modulation of inflammation and immune responses by prostaglandins and thromboxanes.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2001
Virtually every organism has evolved mechanisms by which, upon stimulation, lipids are released from plasma membranes and metabolized into mediators capable of changing cellular physiology.

Exosomes account for vesicle-mediated transcellular transport of activatable phospholipases and prostaglandins[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
Exosomes are bioactive vesicles released from multivesicular bodies (MVB) by intact cells and participate in intercellular signaling. We investigated the presence of lipid-related proteins and bioactive lipids in RBL-2H3 exosomes.

Prostaglandins for preventing postpartum haemorrhage.

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2012
BACKGROUND Prostaglandins have mainly been used for postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) when other measures fail. Misoprostol, a new and inexpensive prostaglandin E1 analogue, has been suggested as an alternative for routine management of the third stage of ...

Celecoxib Improves Host Defense through Prostaglandin Inhibition during Histoplasma capsulatum Infection

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2013
Prostaglandins act as mediators of inflammation and, similar to cytokines, function as immune modulators during innate and adaptive immune responses. Therefore, using a pharmacological inhibitor, celecoxib, we investigated the role of prostaglandins in ...
