Prostaglandins and prostaglandin receptor antagonism in migraine [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Headache and Pain, 2013
Human models of headache may contribute to understanding of prostaglandins' role in migraine pathogenesis. The current thesis investigated the migraine triggering effect of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in migraine patients without aura, the efficacy of a novel EP4 receptor antagonist, BGC20-1531, in prevention of PGE2-induced headache and the ability of ...

Anionic lipids activate group IVA cytosolic phospholipase A2 via distinct and separate mechanisms

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
Previously, ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] were demonstrated to be potent and specific activators of group IVA cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2α). In this study, we hypothesized that these anionic lipids

Prostaglandins in human milk

open access: yes, 1980
Prostaglandins E and F have been shown to be present in breast milk in over 100 times the concentrations found in adult plasma. The ratio of the concentration of the principal circulating metabolite of prostaglandin F (13,14-dihydro-15-ketoprostaglandin ...

IDENTIFICATION OF NOVEL CYTOTOXIC PROSTAGLANDIN METABOLITES PRODUCED IN ARACHIDONOYL ETHANOLAMIDE-TREATED TUMOREGENIC KERATINOCYTES

open access: yes, 2012
Arachidonoyl ethanolamide (AEA) induces apoptosis in mouse tumorigenic keratinocytes (JWF-2 cells). Our previous data show that AEA is metabolized by COX-2 to pro-apoptotic J-series prostaglandins.

Prostaglandins and the kidney

open access: yes, 1977
This review provides a summary and assessment of research involving renal prostaglandins. Arachidonic acid released from phospholipids is converted by prostaglandin cycle-oxygenase in the kidney to PGE2, PGF2α, PGD2, and, possibly, to PGI2, and ...

Exogenous and Endogenous Hydrogen Sulfide Protects Gastric Mucosa against the Formation and Time-Dependent Development of Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Acute Lesions Progressing into Deeper Ulcerations

open access: yesMolecules, 2017
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous mediator, synthesized from l-cysteine by cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE), cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) or 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3-MST).
