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

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

Prostaglandins for preventing postpartum haemorrhage.
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 ...
