Aspirin, indomethacin and naproxen have been shown to inhibit the release of prostaglandins E and F (PGE and PGF) from the estradiol-stimulated uterus of progesterone-pretreated ovariectomized rats. Under the present experimental conditions indomethacin (1 mg/rat) was found to be a potent inhibitor of PGF and E biosynthesis, but the duration of action was less than 24 hours, after which a rebound above control levels was observed. The compounds were without effect on estradiol-stimulated increases in uterine wet weight. Δ′THC did not inhibit estradiol-stimulated PG biosynthesis but produced a significant rise (P<0.01) in PGE levels in uterine venous blood. A hypothesis is suggested to explain some of the pharmacological effects of Δ′THC. 相似文献

Prostaglandin E (PGE) and F (PGF) levels were measured in mouse uteri at various times after either trauma (hemostat crushing) or oil stimulation of the decidual cell reaction (DCR). The oil induced DCR led to an early increase (within 5 min) in both PGE and PGF levels. Both returned to baseline by 1 h after stimulation. A second peak in PGF levels was observed at 120 min after oil stimulation. This study demonstrates a distinct difference between the pattern of PGE and PGF changes in the uterus following oil stimulation of the DCR. Indomethacin pretreatment completely blocked the oil stimulated DCR as well as all prostaglandin increases following either stimulus. The trauma stimulated DCR was not completely blocked by indomethacin pretreatment.Pretreatment with tranylcypromine, an inhibitor of prostacyclin biosynthesis, did not block the prostaglandin E and F increases, but did block the oil stimulated DCR. These findings suggest that prostacyclin may be an early mediator of the DCR. 相似文献

Effects of indomethacin, prostaglandin E2, prostaglandin F2 alpha and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha on hatching of mouse blastocysts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present study has been performed to investigate how PGs would participate the hatching process. Effects of indomethacin, an antagonist to PGs biosynthesis, on the hatching of mouse blastocysts were examined in vitro. Furthermore, it was studied that prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) or 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha (6-keto-PGF1 alpha) were added to the culture media with indomethacin. The hatching was inhibited by indomethacin yet the inhibition was reversible. In the groups with indomethacin and PGE2, no improvement was seen in the inhibition of hatching and the inhibition was irreversible. In the groups with indomethacin and PGF2 alpha, inhibition of hatching was improved in comparison with the group with indomethacin. In the groups with indomethacin and 6-keto-PGF1 alpha, no improvement was seen. The above results indicated that PGF2 alpha possibly had an accelerating effect on hatching and a high concentration of PGE2 would exert cytotoxic effect on blastocysts. 相似文献

A vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) deficient diet stimulated prostaglandin biosynthesis in coagulating rat blood. Prostaglandins were extracted from serum, purified and bioassayed. The identity of prostaglandin E2 was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Withholding vitamin E from the diet caused a marked increase in PGE2 and a lesser increase in PGF2alpha production in serum. In rats maintained on diets containing different concentrations of vitamin E, serum concentrations of PGE2 and PGF2alpha were inversely related to serum concentrations of alpha-tocopherol. These data suggest that in vitro alpha-tocopherol inhibits the endogenous conversion of arachidonic acid into PGE2 and PGF2alpha. The possibility that alpha-tocopherol may inhibit the formation of endoperoxide intermediates of PGE2 and PGF2alpha biosynthesis and subsequent induction of platelet aggregation is discussed. 相似文献

The
antiinflammatory agents diclofenac, fenoprofen and aspirin were tested to determine how well they inhibit the pre-ovulatory elevation in prostaglandin (PG) production in rabbit follicles in comparison to indomethacin. In addition, the
antiinflammatory agent dexamethasone and the antipyretic agent acetaminophen were tested. The agents were administered 8 h after the ovulatory process was stimulated by hCG (50 I.U./kg). At 10 h after hCG (i.e., at the expected time of ovulation) control follicles had PGF and PGE levels of 370.0 and 582.6 pg/mg of follicle, respectively. Diclofenac inhibited PG production the most-reducing PGF and PGE to 22.8 and 53.6 pg/mg, respectively. Indomethacin reduced the PGF and PGE levels to 27.4 and 76.6 pg/mg, respectively. Fenoprofen was less effective, reducing the PGF and PGE to 77.8 and 222.4 pg/mg, respectively. Aspirin reduced the PGF and PGE to 123.4 and 174.6 pg/mg, respectively. Dexamethasone and acetaminophen did not inhibit PG production. Ovulation was completely inhibited by diclofenac and indomethacin, partially inhibited by fenoprofen, and unaffected by aspirin, acetaminophen, or dexamethasone. The results suggest that any potent
antiinflammatory agent can inhibit ovulation provided it adequately reduces PG production; whereas
antiinflammatory agents are ineffective. The anti-inflammatory agent must completely abolish the preovulatory elevation in PGs in mature follicles in order to totally inhibit ovultion. 相似文献

The prostaglandin (PG) content of several tissues and fluids from 6 day pregnant rabbits was evaluated following treatment with indomethacin or vehicle . PGE and PGF were measured by radioimmunoassay. More complete depletion of PGE and PGF was accomplished by 3 injections of indomethacin (s.c.) given during the 18 h before sacrifice at a dose of 10 mg indomethacin per kg body weight than was accomplished by 1 injection of the same amount of indomethacin (i.v.) 1.5 h before sacrifice. Levels of PGF were more easily depressed by indomethacin than were those of PGE. PG levels in the kidney and blastocysts were depressed to a greater extent by indomethacin than were those in the uterus, uterine fluid or peritoneal fluid. Evaluation of the effect of indomethacin on a particular physiological function should be interpreted with caution unless the extent of PG depletion in that tissue is also measured. 相似文献

A study was performed in order to investigate the participation of prostaglandins (PGs) during implantation. The effects of indomethacin on mouse blastocyst attachment and trophoblastic outgrowth were examined in vitro. Studies were also carried out on cultures supplemented with PGE2 and/or PGF2 alpha along with indomethacin. (1) Blastocyst attachment and trophoblastic outgrowth were inhibited by indomethacin dose-dependency. (2) In the cultures supplemented with indomethacin and PGE2 or PGF2 alpha, respectively, the inhibitory effects of indomethacin were reduced. (3) In the cultures supplemented with all three substances with treatment (1) and (2), inhibition of indomethacin was partially reversed, but still lower than control group without indomethacin. The above results indicate that both PGE2 and PGF2 alpha have a promoting effect on implantation, and PGF2 alpha was more effective than PGE2. 相似文献

The role of prostaglandins (PGs) in liver injury induced by D-galactosamine was investigated in the rat. The contents of PGD2 and PGF2 alpha in the liver were significantly increased from 3 h and 24 h after the D-galactosamine administration, respectively, but that of PGE2 was not significantly changed. Administration of 16,16-dimethyl PGE2, a long acting derivative of PGE2, or indomethacin, but not 16,16-dimethyl PGF2 alpha, a long acting derivative of PGF2 alpha, significantly depressed the increase in the serum transaminase activities induced by D-galactosamine. The protective effect of indomethacin was not disturbed by the 16, 16-dimethyl PGF2 alpha administration. These results indicate that PGE2 has a cytoprotective effect against the D-galactosamine induced liver injury and suggest that the protective effect of indomethacin is ascribable to its suppression of synthesis of PGs other than PGE2 or PGF2 alpha, e.g., PGD2. 相似文献

Human plasma has been reported to inhibit the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandin (PG) E2 and PGF2 alpha. In the present study the plasma inhibitory activity was determined in three groups (16 each) of plasma obtained from normal healthy volunteers, treated asthmatics and untreated asthmatic patients. The result showed that plasma from all three groups were equally effective in inhibiting the biosynthesis of PGE2. Plasma of normal volunteers and treated asthmatics also inhibited PGF2 alpha biosynthesis. In contrast the plasma obtained from untreated asthmatics was considerably less active in inhibiting the biosynthesis of PGF2 alpha than plasma from the other two groups. 相似文献

Isolated pancreatic islets of the rat were either prelabeled with [3H]arachidonic acid, or were incubated over the short term with the concomitant addition of radiolabeled arachidonic acid and a stimulatory concentration of glucose (17mM) for prostaglandin (PG) analysis. In prelabeled islets, radiolabel in 6-keto-PGF1 alpha, PGE2, and 15-keto-13,14-dihydro-PGF2 alpha increased in response to a 5 min glucose (17mM) challenge. In islets not prelabeled with arachidonic acid, label incorporation in 6-keto-PGF1 alpha increased, whereas label in PGE2 decreased during a 5 min glucose stimulation; after 30-45 min of glucose stimulation labeled PGE levels increased compared to control (2.8mM glucose) levels. Enhanced labelling of PGF2 alpha was not detected in glucose-stimulated islets prelabeled or not. Isotope dilution with endogenous arachidonic acid probably occurs early in the stimulus response in islets not prelabeled. D-Galactose (17mM) or 2-deoxyglucose (17mM) did not alter PG production. Indomethacin inhibited islet PG turnover and potentiated glucose-stimulated insulin release. Islets also converted the endoperoxide [3H]PGH2 to 6-keto-PGF1 alpha, PGF2 alpha, PGE2 and PGD2, in a time-dependent manner and in proportions similar to arachidonic acid-derived PGs. In dispersed islet cells, the calcium ionophore ionomycin, but not glucose, enhanced the production of labeled PGs from arachidonic acid. Insulin release paralleled PG production in dispersed cells, however, indomethacin did not inhibit ionomycin-stimulated insulin release, suggesting that PG synthesis was not required for secretion. In confirmation of islet PGI2 turnover indicated by 6-keto-PGF1 alpha production, islet cell PGI2-like products inhibited platelet aggregation induced by ADP. These results suggest that biosynthesis of specific PGs early in the glucose secretion response may play a modulatory role in islet hormone secretion, and that different pools of cellular arachidonic acid may contribute to PG biosynthesis in the microenvironment of the islet. 相似文献

Aspirin and indomethacin, inhibitors of prostaglandin biosynthesis, were utilized to determine the role of prostaglandins (PGs) in ovarian weight gain in rats following unilateral ovariectomy or treatment with PMSG. After unilateral ovariectomy, the compensatory ovarian hypertrophy was 185-0% compared with 139-8% and 97-5% in rats treated with indomethacin and aspirin, respectively. The adrenal weights in rats treated with aspirin were also reduced significantly. Administration of PGE2 or PGF2alpha with aspirin reversed the effect of aspirin on the adrenals but had no effect on the ovarian weight. Indomethacin and aspirin treatment of animals injected with PMSG also reduced the ovarian weight gain. If 100 mug PGE2 were given twice daily, this effect was reversed in both groups but thrice daily administration had no effect on rats receiving aspirin. In PMSG-treated rats, 100 mug PGF2alpha twice daily did not reverse the effect of indomethacin and aspirin, and actually enhanced the effect of aspirin. 相似文献

The effect of endotoxin (Salmonella enteritidis-Boivin) on ovum transport in the rabbit was examined. A dose of 10 μg/kg intravenously (iv) given 24 h after an injection of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) to induce ovulation caused expulsion of 87% of ova from the oviduct within 24 h. The ED50 and 95% probability limits were 3.1 (2.38–4.03) μg/kg. A dose of 20 μg/kg given at 24 h after hCG exerted its effect on ovum transport within 4 h. Concurrent treatment with indomethacin completely prevented the effect of endotoxin on ovum transport. Endotoxin caused an increase of prostaglandin-like material (PG) E, measured by radioimmunoassay, in uterine vein blood within 35 min and PGE levels continued to rise until 3 h after endotoxin and remained elevated until 8–9 ½ h. PGF in uterine vein blood was not elevated until 90 min after endotoxin and then increased more rapidly than PGE during the next 2.5 h: it was still elevated at 8–9 ½ h. The ratio of PGF:PGE in uterine vein blood decreased from 3:1 in 24 h control samples to 1:1 at 1 h after endotoxin, and then increased rapidly exceeding 5:1 at 2 h. In animals given both indomethacin and endotoxin PG levels in uterine vein blood declined. Phenoxybenzamine partially prevented the effect of endotoxin on ovum transport and in animals so treated PGE levels in uterine vein blood increased similarly to those in animals receiving endotoxin alone, but PGF values, while elevated, were suppressed compared to those in endotoxin animals and the PGF:PGE ratio never exceeded 2:1. It is concluded that endotoxin induces accelerated ovum transport by causing an initial relaxation of the oviductal isthmic musculature due to PGE dominance followed by stimulation of oviductal circular musculature due to PGF dominance. 相似文献

Treatment with PGF2alpha plus estradiol-17beta aborts 90-day pregnant ewes, whereas PGF2alpha or estradiol-17beta alone does not abort ewes. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate whether tamoxifen, an estrogen receptor antagonist, estradiol-17beta, prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha), indomethacin, or some of their interactions affected ovine uterine/placental secretion of PGF2alpha, estradiol-17beta or prostaglandins E (PGE), because a single treatment with PGF2alpha and estradiol-17beta given every 6 h aborts 90-day pregnant ewes. Concentrations of PGF2alpha in uterine venous blood were increased (P < or = 0.05) by estradiol-17beta, PGF2alpha + estradiol-17beta, and PGF2alpha + tamoxifen, and decreased (P < or = 0.05) by indomethacin or PGF2alpha + indomethacin at 72 h when compared to the 0 h samples. Concentrations of PGE in uterine venous blood were decreased (P < or = 0.05) by indomethacin and PGF2alpha + indomethacin and increased (P < or = 0.05) by PGF2alpha + estradiol-17beta at 72 h when compared to the 0 h samples. Concentrations of PGF2alpha in inferior vena cava blood at 6 h were increased (P < or = 0.05) by PGF2alpha either alone or in combination with indomethacin, tamoxifen, or estradiol-17beta, which is due to the PGF2alpha injected. Concentrations of PGF2alpha in inferior vena cava blood in PGF2alpha + estradiol-17beta-treated 88- to 90-day pregnant ewes increased (P < or = 0.05) linearly over the 72-h sampling period and averaged 4.0 + 0.4 ng/ml. Concentrations of PGF2alpha in inferior vena cava blood of control, PGF2alpha, tamoxifen, PGF2alpha + indomethacin, PGF2alpha + tamoxifen, and estradiol-17beta-treated ewes did not differ (P > or = 0.05) and averaged 0.4 + 0.04 ng/ml. Profiles of PGE in inferior vena cava blood of 88- to 90-day pregnant ewes treated with vehicle, PGF2alpha, estradiol-17beta, tamoxifen, tamoxifen + PGF2alpha, or estradiol-17beta + PGF2alpha did not differ (P > or = 0.05). Concentrations of PGE in inferior vena cava blood of 88- to 90-day pregnant ewes treated with indomethacin or PGF2alpha + indomethacin were lower (P < or = 0.05) than in control ewes. Concentrations of estradiol-17beta in jugular venous plasma of PGF2alpha + estradiol-17beta-treated 88- to 90-day pregnant ewes increased linearly and differed (P < or = 0.05) from controls. Profiles of estradiol-17beta in jugular venous plasma of PGF2alpha, indomethacin, tamoxifen, and PGF2alpha + tamoxifen and PGF2alpha + indomethacin, estradiol-17beta, and controls did not differ (P > or = 0.05). It is concluded that treatment with a single injection of PGF2alpha and estradiol-17beta given every 6 h causes a linear increase in PGF2alpha and estradiol-17beta. 相似文献

Production of prostaglandins (PGs) and expression of their receptors have been demonstrated in bovine corpus luteum (CL). The aim of the present study was to determine whether PGE2 and PGF2alpha have roles in bovine luteal steroidogenic cell (LSC) apoptosis. Cultured bovine LSCs obtained at the midluteal stage (Days 8-12 of the cycle) were treated for 24 h with PGE2 (0.001-1 microM) and PGF2alpha (0.001-1 microM). Prostaglandin E2 (1 microM) and PGF2alpha (1 microM) significantly stimulated progesterone (P4) production and reduced the levels of cell death in the cells cultured with or without tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF)/interferon gamma (IFNG), in the presence and absence of FAS ligand (P < 0.05). Furthermore, DNA fragmentation induced by TNF/IFNG was observed to be suppressed by PGE2 and PGF2alpha. Prostaglandin E2 and PGF2alpha also attenuated mRNA expression of caspase 3 and caspase 8, as well as caspase 3 activity (P < 0.05) in TNF/IFNG-treated cells. FAS mRNA and protein expression were decreased only by PGF2alpha (P < 0.05). A specific P4 receptor antagonist (onapristone) attenuated the apoptosis-inhibitory effects of PGE2 and PGF2alpha in the absence of TNF/IFNG (P < 0.05). A PG synthesis inhibitor (indomethacin) reduced cell viability in PGE2- and PGF2alpha-treated cells (P < 0.05). A specific inhibitor of cyclooxygenase (PTGS), PTGS2 (NS-398), also reduced cell viability, whereas an inhibitor of PTGS1 (FR122047) did not affect it. The overall results suggest that PGE2 and PGF2alpha locally play luteoprotective roles in bovine CL by suppressing apoptosis of LSCs. 相似文献

To determine whether lung injury causes increased plasma prostaglandin (PG) levels, 35 rabbits received oleic acid and 35 served as controls. Half of each group also received 4 ml/kg of Intralipid over one hour and at least five in each subgroup received indomethacin 7.5 mg/kg. Arterial and venous plasma concentrations of PGE2, 6-keto-PGF1 alpha, and PGF2 alpha-M were measured. Venous PGE2 was significantly higher in the oleic acid-injured than in the normal lung group, 1560 +/- 270 (Mean +/- SEM) versus 880 +/- 140 pg/ml (p less than .05). Plasma levels were reduced by 50% with indomethacin, but PGE2 levels remained significantly higher than in the normal lung group, 850 +/- 180 versus 480 +/- 60 for arterial (p less than .05) and 820 +/- 140 versus 480 +/- 80 for venous (p less than .05), respectively. PGF2 alpha-M levels were significantly higher in the lung injury group, 240 +/- 50 versus 50 +/- 40 pg/ml for arterial (p less than .05) and 220 +/- 50 versus 95 +/- 40 for venous (p less than .05), respectively. These lung injury-related increases in PGE2 and PGF2 alpha-M appear related both to increased pulmonary production and to decreased pulmonary clearance. With Intralipid infusion, however, arterial PGE2 increased by 500 +/- 260 pg/ml compared to baseline (p less than .05) with no change in venous PGE2, indicating in this instance that the increase in arterial PGE2 levels is related to increased pulmonary production. 相似文献

Several studies suggest that heat stress affects placental functions including uteroplacental circulation, subsequently leading to pregnancy failure and birth weight reduction. To clarify the involvement of endothelin and placental prostaglandin (PG) systems in the uteroplacental circulation during heat stress, we examined the effects of i.v. administration of the endothelin receptor antagonist bosentan and the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin on uteroplacental blood flow and on placental PGE2 and PGF2alpha levels and their 13,14-dyhydro-15-keto-metabolites (PGEM and PGFM, respectively) in heat-exposed or non-heat-exposed pregnant rats. The administration of bosentan or indomethacin did not change uteroplacental blood flow in non-heat-exposed pregnant rats. In contrast, heat reduced uteroplacental blood flow in pregnant rats, but the reduction was reversed by the administration of bosentan or indomethacin before heat exposure. Heat did not change placental PGE2 or PGEM levels, but in pregnant rats it increased placental PGF2alpha and PGFM levels, which were reversed by bosentan or indomethacin. Our results suggest that the activation of placental endothelin receptor and PGF2alpha systems are involved in the uteroplacental circulatory disturbances produced by heat. PGF2alpha systems activated by heat may be involved in the vasoconstricting effects of endothelin-A and -B receptors during heat exposure. 相似文献

P-815 mastocytoma cells increase the level of pyruvate kinase (PK) expression in response to chloroform-methanol extracts of conditioned media, butyrate, and dibutyryl cyclic AMP (but2cAMP) plus theophylline. The butyrate effect is indomethacin sensitive, suggesting a prostaglandin (PG) is the active signaling factor. Moreover, the chloroform-methanol extracts contain PGE2 and PGF2 alpha and additions of the latter enhance PK activity. PGE2 alone has little or no effect but acts synergistically with PGF2 alpha. These data show that PGF2 alpha can regulate PK levels. On the other hand, other factors may also be active, since the endogeneous and the but2cAMP plus theophylline effects are indomethacin insensitive. Most of the factors that increase PK activity also inhibit cellular growth; however, regulation of PK expression can be uncoupled from growth inhibition. 相似文献
