چکیده

several studies have shown that decidual tissue produces soluble factors which can mediate a variety of immunosuppressive activities. in order to assess whether prostaglandin e2 (pge2) was present in supernatants produced by explant culture of 10 human specimens of first trimester decidua. the effect of the supernatants from the two different series (with and without indomethacin treatment) of explant culture incubated for 24, 48 and 72 hours on the suppression of pha-induced lymphoproliferation assay was investigated. the percentage of suppression was evaluated using student`s t-test. the immunosuppressive activity of decidual explant supernatants was significantly reduced in the presence of indomethacin only in 24 hour culture period. the present study suggests the production of pge2 by early pregnancy decidua does exist. whether this molecule is critical for survival of the feto-placental unit requires more investigations, including comparison with nonpregnant endometrium in different cycle phases and investigation of pathological pregnancy.

Regulation of immune responses by prostaglandin E2.

PGE(2), an essential homeostatic factor, is also a key mediator of immunopathology in chronic infections and cancer. The impact of PGE(2) reflects the balance between its cyclooxygenase 2-regulated synthesis and 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase-driven degradation and the pattern of expression of PGE(2) receptors. PGE(2) enhances its own production but suppresses acute inflammatory mediator...

Prostaglandin E2 is a major soluble factor produced by stromal cells for preventing inflammatory cytokine production from dendritic cells.

Dendritic cells (DCs) are specialized antigen-presenting cells that play pivotal roles in initiating immune responses. However, DC maturation is usually strongly restricted by the stromal microenvironment, especially in non-lymphoid tissues, such as skin and mucosa. Although suppression of DC maturation by stromal cells has been well documented, the molecular basis of this suppression has not b...
