The effects of orally administered prostaglandin E2, 16,16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2 and U-46619, an analogue of the prostaglandin endoperoxide PGH2, on gastric secretory volume, acid and mucus were studied in the rat. All of the compounds significantly increased the volume of gastric secretion, mucus secretion, measured as N-acetylneuraminic acid and mucus synthesis measured as the incorporation of [3H]-glucosamine into mucosal glycoprotein; however, only PGE2 and 16,16-dimethyl PGE2 inhibited acid secretion. U-46619, 1.5 mg/kg provided significant protection against ethanol-induced gastric ulcers, an effect that has been previously shown for the other two compounds. These studies provide additional evidence that prostaglandin induced mucosal protection may be related to an effect on mucus and on stimulation of nonparietal cell gastric secretion. Further study of these parameters may be important in the development of antiulcer drugs for long term clinical use. 相似文献

In gastrointestinal research the in vitro release of prostaglandins from incubated or cultured biopsies is a widely used method to estimate prostaglandin synthesis. We therefore investigated the rate limiting mechanisms of PGE2 release in organ cultured gastric mucosa of the rabbit, determining PGE2 secretion from organ cultured mucosal biopsies by radioimmunoassay and prostaglandin synthesizing capacity by in vitro incubation of mucosal homogenate or microsomes with [14C]-arachidonic acid. Freshly taken biopsies secreted PGE2 at an initial high rate, that decreased during the following 4 hrs of culture. This PGE2 release was dose dependently reduced by inhibitors of the prostaglandin cyclooxygenase. 5mM acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) maximally suppressed PGE2 secretion to 7% of controls, and the inhibition by ASA was quantitatively similar at every given culture period. PGE2 release was markedly increased by carbenoxolone but was only slightly activated by extracellular calcium and the Ca(++)-ionophore A23187. However, Ca++/A23187 were unable to maintain PGE2 secretion at the initial rate. PGE2 secretion was undisturbed in calcium-free medium but was reduced to 50-60% of controls by excess EDTA. The intracellular calcium chelator 1,2-bis-(2-aminophenoxy)-ethane-N,N,N',N',-tetraacetic acid-acetoxymethyl ester (BAPTA-AM) similarly inhibited PGE2 release to 72% of controls. In contrast, PGE2 release was unaffected by the intracellular calcium antagonist 3,4,5-trimethylene-bis(4-formylpyridinium bromide) dioxime (TMB-8), the calmodulin antagonists N-(6-aminohexyl)-1-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) and calmidazolium (compound R24571) or various direct inhibitors of endogenous arachidonic acid release like tetracaine, bromophenacyl bromide, neomycin or low dose quinacrine, indicating that the reduction of PGE2 release by EDTA or BAPTA may be mediated by mechanisms different from substrate release. In contrast, an inhibition of PGE2 secretion by quinacrine at high concentrations (greater than or equal to 0.8 mM) was attributed to a direct inhibition of the prostaglandin cyclooxygenase, similar to ASA. Finally, the reduction of the prostaglandin synthesizing capacity by ASA was strongly correlated with the inhibition of PGE2 secretion, also at low concentrations and minor degrees of inhibition. From these data we conclude, that the activity of the prostaglandin cyclooxygenase is rate limiting for PGE2 secretion from organ cultured mucosal biopsies rather than arachidonic acid release by a phospholipase A2. This should be considered for interpretation of studies based on prostaglandin release from cultured mucosa. 相似文献

Bovine endometrium was obtained on day 16 of pregnancy (estrus = 0) and separated into epithelial and stromal cell populations. When confluent, the two cell populations were treated for 24 h with cytokines at 1, 10 and 100 ng/ml. Prostaglandin (PG) E2 was the major prostaglandin produced by both cell types. For control cultures, more PGE2 was secreted into medium by stromal cells than by epithelial cells, whereas secretion of PGF was similar for epithelial and stromal cells. Interleukin-1 beta had no effect on prostaglandin production by stromal cell cultures but increased epithelial production of PGE2 and, to a lesser extent, PGF. Conversely, granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor had no effect on epithelial cells but reduced secretion of PGE2 and PGF from stromal cells. There were no effects of interleukin-2 or tumor necrosis factor-alpha on prostaglandin secretion. Results indicate that certain cytokines can regulate endometrial prostaglandin secretion in a cell type-restricted manner. 相似文献

Human monocytes in culture release small amounts of prostaglandin E (PGE) into the medium. Addition of Fc fragments of IgG to human monocyte monolayer cultures results in a marked increase in PGE release; Fab fragments, monomeric IgG, and human serum albumin have no effect. An IgG1 myeloma has no effect on PGE levels but addition of the heat aggreagted protein results in a marked increase of PGE secretion. Exposure of the cells to Con A, which binds to a specific monocyte plasma membrane receptor, also results in a large increase in PGE release. The magnitude of the increase in PGE secretion produced by exposure of the monocytes to these ligands greatly exceeds the stimulation observed after the addition of antigen-activated mononuclear cell supernatants, zymosan, Sephadex beads, or endotoxin, to monocyte cultures. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) accounts for approximately 70% of the total prostaglandins released by stimulated cells. After addition of Indomethacin to monocyte cultures, the stimulatory effects of the ligands on PGE release are inhibited. Addition of Con A to monocyte cultures results in an increased incorporation of [3H]-arachidonic acid into PGE2. These results suggest that this ligand stimulates synthesis as well as release of this prostaglandin. 相似文献

We examined and compared the in vitro effects of misoprostol (synthetic prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) analogue) on prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) secretion and EP3 receptor mRNA expression in the pregnant rat myometrium and cervix at 19 days gestation. Myometrial and cervical tissue samples were exposed to media with or without misoprostol (50 or 100 pg/ml) and incubated for 15 and 30 min, and 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h. Media and tissue samples were collected for quantification of PGE2 and mRNA expression of rEP3alpha and rEP3beta receptor, respectively. PGE2 secretion increased (P < or = 0.05) in the myometrium exposed to 50 and 100 pg/ml misoprostol. Cervical PGE2 secretion increased following exposure to the 100 pg/ml dose only. In the myometrium, 50 and 100 pg/ml misoprostol induced elevations in rEP3alpha and rEP3beta receptor mRNA expression. rEP3alpha and rEP3beta receptor mRNA expression in the cervix was not different from controls. These data demonstrate that the EP3 receptor is differentially expressed in the myometrium and cervix in response to misoprostol. This may account for the ability of misoprostol to stimulate the myometrium when administered for cervical ripening. 相似文献

Crypts of Lieberkühn were isolated from human colon, and differential interference contrast microscopy distinguished goblet and columnar cells. Activation with carbachol (CCh, 100 microM) or histamine (10 microM) released contents from goblet granules. Stimulation with prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2), 5 microM) or adenosine (10 microM) did not release goblet granules but caused the apical margin of columnar cells to recede. Goblet volume was lost during stimulation with CCh or histamine ( approximately 160 fl/cell), but not with PGE(2) or adenosine. Three-quarters of goblet cells were responsive to CCh but released only 30% of goblet volume. Half-time for goblet volume release was 3.7 min. PGE(2) stimulated a prolonged fluid secretion that attained a rate of approximately 350 pl/min. Columnar cells lost approximately 50% of apical volume during maximal PGE(2) stimulation, with a half-time of 3.3 min. In crypts from individuals with ulcerative colitis, goblet cells were hypersensitive to CCh for release of goblet volume. These results support separate regulation for mucus secretions from goblet cells and from columnar cells, with control mechanisms restricting total release of mucus stores. 相似文献

In primary cultures of rat hepatocytes, prostaglandin E2 and prostaglandin D2 (PGE2 and PGD2) inhibited the secretion of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-associated apoB, triacylglycerol, and cholesterol. These effects were concentration-dependent and remained apparent for at least 3 days of culture without an effect on the apoB/triacylglycerol ratio of the secreted VLDL. Prostaglandins had no effect on the overall synthesis of triacylglycerol but triacylglycerol accumulated within the cells, without intracellular accumulation of apoB. PGE2, when added to the medium together with glucagon, increased the inhibition of VLDL secretion, compared to that observed with glucagon alone. However, PGE2 did not increase the stimulatory effect of glucagon on ketogenesis. Unlike glucagon, the prostaglandins did not inhibit fatty acid synthesis nor did they stimulate ketogenesis or production of cAMP. Thus, of all the parameters of hepatic lipid metabolism studied, PGE2 and PGD2 selectively affected VLDL. Selective inhibition of VLDL secretion was also observed with the calcium antagonist verapamil. The divalent cation ionophore A23187 also inhibited VLDL release but, in contrast, also inhibited fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis. The results suggest that VLDL secretion is modulated at some optimal cell calcium concentration that may be mediated selectively by agents such as prostaglandins. 相似文献

Prostaglandin E receptor subtypes involved in stimulation of gastroduodenal bicarbonate secretion in rats and mice. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

We investigated prostaglandin E (EP) receptor subtypes responsible for the HCO3- stimulatory action of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in the gastroduodental mucosa, by examining the effects of various prostanoids with subtype specific EP receptor agonists in rats and those of PGE2 in knockout mice lacking EP1 or EP3 receptors. In rats, gastric HCO3- secretion was stimulated by i.v. administration of PGE2, 17-phenyl PGE2 the selective EP1 agonist as well as sulprostone the EP1 and EP3 agonist, but was not affected by other EP agonists such as butaprost the selective EP2 agonist, ONO-NT-012 the selective EP3 agonist or 11-deoxy PGE1 the EP3 and EP4 agonist. In contrast, the HCO3- secretion in rat duodenums was stimulated by PGE2, sulprostone, ONO-NT-012 as well as 11-deoxy PGE1 but not affected by either 17-phenyl PGE2 or butaprost. The HCO stimulatory effect of sulprostone in the stomach was significantly inhibited by ONO-AE-829, the selective EP1 antagonist. On the other hand, PGE2 applied topically to the mucosa for 10 min caused a dose-dependent increase of HCO3- secretion in both the stomach and duodenum of wild-type mice. The HCO3- stimulatory action of PGE2 in the stomach was also observed dose-dependently in knockout mice lacking EP3-receptors but was absent in EP1-receptor knockout mice, while the stimulatory effect in the duodenum was observed in EP1-receptor knockout mice, similar to wild-type animals, but not in knockout mice lacking EP3-receptors. These results indicate that PGE2 stimulates HCO3- secretion via different EP receptor subtypes in the stomach and duodenum; the former is mediated by EP1-receptors, while the latter mediated by EP3-receptors. 相似文献

Oral and subcutaneous administration of 16,16-dimethylprostaglandin E2 (16,16-dimethyl PGE2) resulted in an increase in the dry weight of the stomach and small intestine of the female rat. This weight response was rapid, controlled rather than continuously progressing, dose dependent and reversible. The dry weight of the colon also increased but this was not studied in detail. Two-day treatment with 16,16-dimethyl PGE2 caused an increase in the incorporation of 3H-thymidine into the duodenum, jejunum and colon suggesting an increase in cell number. Incorporation into the stomach and ileum was not changed. The number of goblet cells per crypt was increased by prostaglandin treatment in all parts of the small intestine. Since these are mucus producing cells, the small intestine may have increased in cell number and mucus production. Both anti-secretory and cytoprotective doses of 16,16-dimethyl PGE2 caused weight increases in the stomach and small intestine. However, the weight gain by itself was not sufficient to protect the stomach or small intestine from necrotic agents after the prostaglandin was discontinued. 相似文献

Bilateral perifusion devices were utilized to measure prostaglandin secretion towards luminal and myometrial sides of bovine endometria. Tissues were collected at Day 17 post-estrus from cyclic (n = 4), pregnant (n = 5) and bred but subsequently non-pregnant (n = 6) cows. Tissue from each cow was placed into two perifusion devices, perifused with Krebs-Ringer Bicarbonate solution (3 ml/10 min) for 2.5 h and fractions collected every 10 min. Oxytocin (1 IU/ml) was perifused during fractions 7-12 to the luminal side of one device and to the myometrial side of the other device. Regardless of status, prostaglandin secretion rates (PGF and PGE2) were higher (P less than 0.01) from the luminal side than the myometrial side. Secretion rates of PGF were lower (P less than 0.01) for endometria from pregnant cows than for endometria from cyclic or bred/non-pregnant cows, whereas secretion rates of PGE2 were not affected by pregnancy status. Regardless of the side of perifusion, secretion rates of PGF and PGE2 from endometria of cyclic and bred/non-pregnant cows were elevated (P less than 0.01) throughout the period of oxytocin treatment, whereas prostaglandin secretion by endometria from pregnant cows was not stimulated by oxytocin. Decreased secretion of PGF from endometria of pregnant cows suggests that the corpus luteum and pregnancy are maintained because of an inhibition of endometrial prostaglandin synthesis or an inability to respond to stimulators of prostaglandin synthesis (i.e. oxytocin). 相似文献

Prostaglandin E(2)-stimulated secretion of protein in the salivary glands of the lone star tick via a phosphoinositide signaling pathway 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Previous studies identified a prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) receptor in the salivary glands of partially fed female lone star ticks, Amblyomma americanum (L.). In the present studies, protein secretion from dispersed salivary gland acini was shown to be specific for PGE(2), as compared with PGF(2alpha) or the thromboxane analog U-46619, in accordance with their respective binding affinities for the PGE(2) receptor. Furthermore, the selective PGE(2) EP1 receptor agonist, 17-phenyl trinor PGE(2), was as effective as PGE(2) in stimulating secretion of anticoagulant protein. Calcium ionophore A-23187 (1 to 100 microM) stimulated secretion of anticoagulant protein in a dose-dependent manner but the voltage-gated Ca(2+)-channel blocker verapamil (1 to 1000 microM) and the receptor-mediated Ca(2+)-entry antagonist, SK&F 96365 (1 and 10 microM), and 5mM ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,NN', N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) had no appreciable effect on inhibiting PGE(2)-stimulated secretion of anticoagulant protein. PGE(2) (0.1 microM) and the non-hydrolyzable analog of guanosine triphosphate (GTP), GTPgammaS (10 microM), directly activated phospholipase C (PLC) in a membrane-enriched fraction of the salivary glands after PLC was first incubated with the PGE(2) EP1 receptor antagonist AH-6809, which presumably antagonized endogenous PGE(2) (0.3 microM) in the broken-cell-membrane-enriched fraction. TMB-8, an antagonist of intracellular inositol trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptors, inhibited PGE(2)-stimulated secretion. The results support the hypothesis that PGE(2) stimulates secretion of tick salivary gland protein via a phosphoinositide signaling pathway and mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+). 相似文献

Maternal heat stress in cattle may disrupt pregnancy by elevating uterine prostaglandin F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha)) secretion. The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of elevated temperature (42 degrees C) in vitro upon 1) prostaglandin secretion by endometrial tissue; 2) the actions of extracellular regulators of uterine PGF [conceptus secretory proteins (bCSPs) and platelet-activating factor, (PAF)]; 3) the activity of the cyclooxygenase-endoperoxidase enzyme complex (PG synthetase); and 4) the activity of the endometrial PG synthesis inhibitor present in the endometrium from pregnant cattle. Endometrial explants at Day 17 of the estrous cycle produced more PGF than PGE(2) while elevated temperature caused increased PGF secretion but did not affect PGE(2) secretion. Elevated temperature did not reduce the ability of bCSPs or PAF to suppress release of PGF. The heat shock-induced increase in PGF at Day 17 was not due to the direct effects on PG synthetase, because PGF production from a cell-free cotyledonary microsomal enzyme preparation was reduced at elevated temperature. The activity of the cytosolic inhibitor of cyclooxygenase present in the endometrium of Day-17 pregnant cows could be reduced but not eliminated at 42 degrees C. We conclude that in vitro heat stress induces PGF secretion from the bovine uterine endometrium at Day 17 after estrus. This increase is not accompanied by the loss of regulatory capacity of conceptus products or increased activity of PG synthetase. 相似文献

The gastric mucosa is frequently exposed to different exogenous and endogenous ulcerative agents. Alcoholism is one of the risk factors for the development of mucosal damage in the stomach. This study aimed to assess if a probiotic strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) is capable of protecting the gastric mucosa from acute damage induced by intragastric administration of ethanol. Pre-treatment of rats with LGG at 10(9) cfu/ml twice daily for three consecutive days markedly reduced ethanol-induced mucosal lesion area by 45%. LGG pre-treatment also significantly increased the basal mucosal prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) level. In addition, LGG attenuated the suppressive actions of ethanol on mucus-secreting layer and transmucosal resistance and reduced cellular apoptosis in the gastric mucosa. It is suggested that the protective action of LGG on ethanol-induced gastric mucosal lesions is likely attributed to the up-regulation of PGE(2), which could stimulate the mucus secretion and increase the transmucosal resistance in the gastric mucosa. All these would protect mucosal cells from apoptosis in the stomach. 相似文献

By day-90, the placenta secretes half of the circulating progesterone and 85% of the circulating estradiol-17beta [Weems YS, Vincent D, Tanaka Y, et al.

Ovariectomy (OVX) or prostaglandin (PG) F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha)) does not abort intact or OVX 90-day pregnant ewes and PGF(2alpha) regresses the corpus luteum, but does not affect placental progesterone secretion in vivo [Weems YS, Vincent D, Tanaka Y, et al. Effects of prostaglandin F(2alpha) on sources of progesterone and pregnancy in intact, ovariectomized, and hysterectomized 90-100 day pregnant ewes. Prostaglandins 1992;43:203-22]. Luteal progesterone secretion in vitro at day-90 of pregnancy in ewes is regulated by PGE(1)and/or PGE(2), not by ovine luteinizing hormone (LH; 3). Concentrations of PGE in uterine or ovarian venous plasma averaged 6 ng/ml at 90-100 days of pregnancy in ewes [Weems YS, Vincent DL, Tanaka Y, Nusser K, Ledgerwood KS, Weems CW.

Prostaglandins Other Lipid Mediators 1999;58:167-78]. In addition, treatment of 90 day ovine diced placental slices with androstenedione in vitro increased placental estradiol-17beta, but treatment with PGF(2alpha)in vitro did not decrease placental progesterone secretion, which indicates that ovine placenta progesterone secretion is resistant to the luteolytic action of PGF(2alpha) [Weems YS, Bridges PJ, LeaMaster BR, Sasser RG, Vincent DL, Weems CW.

Pregnant ewes OVX on day 83 of pregnancy and placental slices cultured in vitro secretes 2-3-fold more estradiol-17beta, PSPB, PGE, and progesterone than placental slices from 90 day intact pregnant ewes, but placental PGF(2alpha) secretion by placental slices from intact or OVX ewes did not change [Denamur R, Kann G, Short R V. How does the corpus luteum of the sheep know that there is an embryo in the uterus? In: Pierrepont G, editor. Endocrinology of pregnancy and parturition, vol. 2. Cardiff, Wales, UK: Alpha Omega Pub Co.; 1973. p. 4-38]. The objective of these experiments was to determine what regulates ovine placental progesterone and estradiol-17beta secretion at day-90 of pregnancy, since the hypophysis [Casida LE, Warwick J. The necessity of the corpus luteum for maintenance of pregnancy in the ewe. J Anim Sci 1945;4:34-9] or ovaries [Weems CW, Weems YS, Randel RD. Prostaglandins and reproduction in female farm animals. Vet J 2006;171:206-28] are not necessary after day-55 to maintain pregnancy. In Experiment 1, diced placental slices from day-90 intact or OVX pregnant ewes that were ovariectomized or laparotomized and ovaries were not removed on day 83 were collected on day-90 and incubated in vitro in M-199 with Vehicle, ovine luteinizing hormone (oLH), ovine follicle stimulating hormone (oFSH), ovine placental lactogen (oPL), PGE(l), PGE(2), PGD(2), PGI(2), insulin-like growth factor (IGF) 1 or 2 (IGF(l); IGF(2)), leukotriene C(4) (LTC(4)), platelet activating factor (PAF) 16 or 18 (PAF-16; PAF-18) at doses of 0, 1, 10, or 100ng/ml for 4h. In Experiment 2, placental slices from day-90 intact and OVX (intact or OVX laporotomized 7 days earlier) pregnant ewes were incubated in vitro with vehicle, INDO, Meclofenamate (MECLO), PGE(l), PGE(2), INDO+PGE(1), MECLO+PGE(l), INDO+PGE(2), or MECLO+PGE(2) for 4h. Media were analyzed for progesterone, estradiol-17beta, PGE, or PGF(2alpha) by RIA. Hormone data in media were analyzed in Experiment 1 by a 2x3x13 and in Experiment 2 by a 2x9 Factorial Design for ANOVA. In Experiment 1, placental progesterone, PGE, or estradiol-17beta secretion were increased (P< or =0.05) two-fold by OVX. Progesterone was not increased (P> or =0.05) by any treatment other than OVX and only FSH increased (P< or =0.05) estradiol-17beta secretion by placental slices in both OVX and intact ewes 90-day pregnant ewes. In Experiment 2, INDO or MECLO decreased (P< or =0.05) placental progesterone secretion by 88% but did not decrease (P> or =0.05) placental estradiol-17beta secretion from intact or OVX ewes. PGE(l) or PGE(2) increased (P< or =0.05) progesterone secretion only in ewes treated with INDO or MECLO. It is concluded that FSH probably regulates day-90 ovine placental estradiol-17beta secretion, while PGE(l) or PGE(2) regulates day-90 placental progesterone secretion. 相似文献

Interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), frequently co-participants in inflammatory states, are two well recognized inhibitors of glucose-induced insulin secretion. Previous reports have concluded that the inhibitory effects of these two autacoids on pancreatic beta cell function are not related because indomethacin, a potent prostaglandin synthesis inhibitor, does not prevent IL-1beta effects. However, indomethacin is not a specific cyclooxygenase inhibitor, and its other pharmacologic effects are likely to inhibit insulin secretion independently. Since we recently observed that IL-1beta induces cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) gene expression and PGE(2) synthesis in islet beta cells, we have reassessed the possibility that PGE(2) mediates IL-1beta effects on beta function. By using two cell lines (HIT-T15 and betaHC13) as well as Wistar rat isolated pancreatic islets, we examined the ability of two COX-2-specific antagonists, NS-398 and SC-236, to prevent IL-1beta inhibition of insulin secretion. Both drugs prevented IL-1beta from inducing PGE(2) synthesis and inhibiting insulin secretion; adding back exogenous PGE(2) re-established inhibition of insulin secretion in the presence of IL-1beta. We also found that EP3, the PGE(2) receptor subtype whose post-receptor effect is to decrease adenylyl cyclase activity and, thereby, insulin secretion, is the dominant mRNA subtype expressed. We conclude that endogenous PGE(2) mediates the inhibitory effects of exogenous IL-1beta on beta cell function. 相似文献

Uterine endometrium collected from pseudopregnant (PP) and cyclic gilts on day (D) 15 after estrus were perifused in vitro with 10 ug/ml of porcine conceptus secretory proteins (pCSP) or serum proteins (SP) in Krebs ringer bicarbonate (KRB) buffer. In Experiment 1, samples were collected from luminal and myometrial surfaces of endometrium and concentrations of prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF) determined by radioimmunoassay (RIA). Secretion of PGF by endometrium from cyclic gilts was stimulated (P less than .05) by pCSP. In Experiment 2, endometrium from D 14 cyclic and PP gilts was perifused and concentrations of PGF and prostaglandin E2 (PGE) in perfusate were determined by RIA. Across both statuses, luminal surface secretion of PGF was stimulated (P less than .05) by pCSP. Treatment with pCSP decreased secretion of PGE from myometrial surface of endometrium from cyclic gilts and increased (P less than .01) secretion of PGE from the myometrial surface of endometrium from PP gilts. In Experiment 3, pCSP were separated into acidic and basic fractions by anion exchange chromatography and each fraction was perifused separately over the luminal surface of endometrium from cyclic and PP gilts. Perifusion with acidic pCSP suppressed secretion of PGF by endometrium from cyclic or PP gilts; while basic pCSP did not influence secretion of PGF. These results demonstrated that products secreted by Day 15 pig conceptuses stimulate release of PGF and PGE from porcine uterine endometrium. 相似文献

The production of prostaglandins by phagocytic cells of the thymic reticulum in culture (P-TR) was studied by using high pressure liquid chromatography and radioimmunoassay. Radioimmunologic determinations showed that thromboxane B2 (TXB2), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha (6 keto-PGF1 alpha) were the major compounds released into the culture medium, whereas prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) was only a minor component. Indomethacin and dexamethasone exerted a similar pattern of differential inhibition of the secretion of prostanoids. PGE2 and 6-keto PGF1 alpha productions were markedly decreased by these anti-inflammatory drugs, whereas those of TXB2 and PGF2 alpha were not or were only slightly affected. Experiments performed with an antiglucocorticoid compound (RU 38486) showed that the steroid-induced inhibition of prostanoid secretion is a classical receptor-mediated action. These results demonstrated that phagocytic cells of the thymic reticulum, which resemble the thymic interdigitating cells, produce several types of prostaglandins. Because it has been described that P-TR regulate thymocyte proliferation in vitro via the secretion of both interleukin 1 and PGE2, these results suggest that anti-inflammatory agents may be able to modulate the thymic microenvironment and, consequently, thymocyte proliferation. 相似文献

To determine the physiological significance of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) in the regulation of endometrial prostaglandin (PG) release in cattle, we investigated the effects of TNFalpha on the secretion of PGE2 and PGF2alpha by bovine endometrium during the estrous cycle. Bovine uteri were classified into six stages (estrus: Day 0, early luteal 1: Days 2 to 3, early luteal 11: Days 5 to 6, mid-luteal: Days 8 to 12, late luteal: Days 15 to 17 and follicular: Days 19 to 21). After 1 h of pre-incubation, endometrial tissues (20 to 30 mg) were exposed to 0 or 0.6 nM TNFalpha for 4 h. The PGE2 concentrations in the medium were higher in the luteal stages than in the follicular stage and in estrus. In contrast, PGF2alpha concentrations were higher in the follicular stage and in estrus than in the luteal stages. The ratio of the basal concentrations of PGE2 and PGF2alpha (PGE2/PGF2alpha ratio) was higher in the luteal stages than in the follicular stage and in estrus. Although TNFalpha stimulated both PGE2 and PGF2alpha secretion during the entire period of the estrous cycle, the level of stimulation of TNFalpha on PGE2 output by the bovine endometrium does not show the same cyclical changes as that shown on PGF2alpha output. The stimulation of TNFalpha resulted in a decrease in the PGE2/PGF2alpha ratio only in the late luteal stage. Furthermore, TNFalpha stimulated PGE2 secretion in stromal, but not epithelial cells. The overall results suggest that TNFalpha is a potent regulator of endometrial PGE2 secretion as well as PGF2alpha secretion during the entire period of estrous cycle, and that TNFalpha plays different roles in the regulation of secretory function of bovine endometrium at different phases of the estrous cycle. 相似文献

The present study was carried out to evaluate the in vitro brain release of prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), androgens, and 17 beta-estradiol in male and female crested newt, Triturus carnifex, during three different periods of the annual sexual cycle; in addition, the effects of mammalian gonadotropin-releasing hormone (mGnRH), PGF2 alpha, and PGE2 on prostaglandins and steroids release by the brain were evaluated during the same periods. In brain incubations of both sexes, PGF2 alpha and estradiol were higher during postreproduction, while PGE2 and androgens were higher during reproduction. In both sexes, mGnRH increased PGF2 alpha and estradiol during postreproduction, and PGE2 during reproduction; PGF2 alpha increased estradiol secretion during postreproduction. Only in the male, did both mGnRH and PGE2 increase androgens during reproduction. It could be suggested that in Triturus carnifex, the regulation of the reproductive activity in the central nervous system (CNS) depends on the relationships among mGnRH, prostaglandins and steroids. In particular, PGF2 alpha and PGE2 seem to play different roles in the CNS of the newt: PGF2 alpha is involved in the postreproductive processes, through estradiol secretion, while PGE2 in the reproductive ones (through androgens secretion?). 相似文献
