Inflamm-aging and arachadonic acid metabolite differences with stage of tendon disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The contribution of inflammation to the pathogenesis of tendinopathy and high prevalence of re-injury is not well established, although recent evidence suggests involvement of prostaglandins.

Biochemical warfare on the reef: the role of glutathione transferases in consumer tolerance of dietary prostaglandins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 BACKGROUND: Despite the profound variation among marine consumers in tolerance for allelochemically-rich foods, few studies have examined the biochemical adaptations underlying diet choice. Here we examine the role of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) in

Roles of peroxinectin in PGE2-mediated cellular immunity in Spodoptera exigua. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Prostaglandins (PGs) mediate insect immune responses to infections and invasions. Although the presence of PGs has been confirmed in several insect species, their biosynthesis in insects remains a conundrum because orthologs of the mammalian ...

Preparation of Prostaglandin F from Prostaglandin E. Prostaglandins and Related Factors. 6. [PDF]
Acta Chemica Scandinavica, 1962 Reduction of prostaglandin E (PGE) with sodium borohydride yielded 2 compounds 1 of which is identical with PGF isolated from the prostate of sheep and the other of which had different physical and biological properties but the same elementary composition. The former was designated PGF1 and the latter PGF2.

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.

Aspirin treatment of mice infected with Trypanosoma cruzi and implications for the pathogenesis of Chagas disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Chagas disease, caused by infection with Trypanosoma cruzi, is an important cause of cardiovascular disease. It is increasingly clear that parasite-derived prostaglandins potently modulate host response and disease progression.

A Blend of F Prostaglandins Functions as an Attractive Sex Pheromone in Silver Carp
Fishes, 2019 A series of laboratory experiments tested the hypothesis that the Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), an invasive river carp from China, employs a prostaglandin F2α-derived sex pheromone that is attractive and species-specific.

Prostanoid Signaling in Cancers: Expression and Regulation Patterns of Enzymes and Receptors
Biology, 2022 Cancer-associated disturbance of prostanoid signaling provides an aberrant accumulation of prostanoids. This signaling consists of 19 target genes, encoding metabolic enzymes and G-protein-coupled receptors, and prostanoids (prostacyclin, thromboxane ...
