Do stress responses promote leukemia progression? An animal study suggesting a role for epinephrine and prostaglandin-E2 through reduced NK activity. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 In leukemia patients, stress and anxiety were suggested to predict poorer prognosis. Oncological patients experience ample physiological and psychological stress, potentially leading to increased secretion of stress factors, including epinephrine ...

Prostaglandin synthesis in rat adrenocortical cells.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1979 The biosynthesis of prostaglandins by isolated rat adrenocortical cells has been studied by determinations of products formed during incubations with labeled arachidonic acid and by radioimmunoassays.

Contribution of PGE2 EP1 receptor in hemin-induced neurotoxicity
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2013 Although hemin-mediated neurotoxicity has been linked to the production of free radicals and glutamate excitotoxicity, the role of the prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-EP1 receptor remains unclear.

Hypothyroidism Affects Uterine Function via the Modulation of Prostaglandin Signaling
Animals, 2021 Thyroid hormones control the functions of almost all body systems. Reproductive dysfunctions, such as abnormal sexual development, infertility, or irregularities in the reproductive cycle, might be associated with thyroid disorders.

Prostaglandin E Synthase, a Terminal Enzyme for Prostaglandin E2 Biosynthesis [PDF]
BMB Reports, 2005 Biosynthesis of prostanoids is regulated by three sequential enzymatic steps, namely phospholipase A2 enzymes, cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, and various lineagespecific terminal prostanoid synthases. Prostaglandin E synthase (PGES), which isomerizes COX-derived PGH2 specifically to PGE2, occurs in multiple forms with distinct enzymatic properties ...

Insights into the prostanoid pathway in the ovary development of the penaeid shrimp Penaeus monodon. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The prostanoid pathway converts polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) into bioactive lipid mediators, including prostaglandins, thromboxanes and prostacyclins, all of which play vital roles in the immune and reproductive systems in most animal phyla.
