Prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase expression in human thyroid epithelial cells.
KAT-50, an established human thyrocyte cell line, expresses constitutively high levels of prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase-2 (PGHS-2), the inflammatory cyclooxygenase. Here, we examine primary human thyrocytes. We find that they, too, express PGHS-2 mRNA and protein under control culture conditions. A substantial fraction of the basal prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) produced by these cells can...
متن کاملAberrant prostaglandin synthase 2 expression defines an antigen-presenting cell defect for insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
Prostaglandins (PGs) are lipid molecules that profoundly affect cellular processes including inflammation and immune response. Pathways contributing to PG output are highly regulated in antigen-presenting cells such as macrophages and monocytes, which produce large quantities of these molecules upon activation. In this report, we demonstrate aberrant constitutive expression of the normally indu...
متن کاملHematopoietic Prostaglandin D Synthase Suppresses Intestinal Adenomas in Apc Mice
Aspirin and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs prevent some cases of colon cancer by inhibiting prostaglandin (PG) synthesis. PGE2 promotes colon neoplasia, as shown by knockout mouse studies on enzymes and receptors in the PG cascade. A few experiments 20 to 30 years ago suggested that PGD2 may suppress tumors, but a role for biosynthetic enzymes for PGD2 in tumor development has not b...

متن کاملLipocalin-type prostaglandin d synthase in essential hypertension.
Lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase (L-PGDS) reportedly well predicts cardiovascular injuries in humans. However, little is known about the implications of L-PGDS in hypertension. In the present study, we investigated the alterations of serum and urinary L-PGDS in hypertensive patients with or without renal dysfunction. A total of 111 patients with hypertension (EHT; 65 with normoalbuminuri...
