InflammationLipoxygenaseArachidonic AcidsProstaglandinsEpoprostenolThromboxane A2Prostaglandins and leukotrienes are derivatives of unsaturated fatty acids acting as mediators of inflammation. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs accounts for their anti-inflammatory effects in ...
Inflammation, pain, pyrexia, prostaglandins, and antiprostaglandins EW Jones - 《Journal of Equine Medicine & Surgery》 被引量: 8发表: 1977年 Prostaglandins, inflammation, and preterm labor According to the current view, the fetal membranes and the amniotic fluid are central in transmission of ...
Research performed during the last decade has given us insight into how the brain monitors the presence of a peripheral inflammation and the mechanisms underlying the brain-mediated acute-phase reactions. Here we give a brief review on this subject, with focus on the role of prostaglandin E 2 ...
2025 This stops the production of prostaglandins—hormone-like substances that are needed to produce inflammation and pain. Dan Perry, Newsweek, 31 Jan. 2025 Your body produces higher levels of the hormone prostaglandins during menstruation, which contributes to back pain and other period pain, like...
These results suggest that prostaglandins may play a direct role in internal ocular inflammation but that in the conjunctiva, prostaglandins may serve to amplify the inflammatory responses produced by other vasoactive amines (histamine in the present study). It is suggested that drugs which inhibit ...
Any of a group of potent hormonelike substances that are produced in various mammalian tissues, are derived from arachidonic acid, and mediate a wide range of physiological functions, such as control of blood pressure, contraction of smooth muscle, and modulation of inflammation. ...

Prostaglandins are important modulators of inflammation and of humoral and cellular immune responses. In order to evaluate a possible mechanism for the regulation of immune responses we have studied the effects of prostaglandins on the expression of I-region-associated (Ia) antigens by macrophages. ...
(cardiovascular) homeostasis as well as to the pathogenesis of several conditions, such as thrombotic disorders, Bartter’s syndrome, asthma, and inflammation. This review will focus on the impact of AA products on mechanisms of blood pressure regulation, such as renal function and vascular tone. ...
In vitro study of inflammatory potential and toxicity profile of latanoprost, travoprost, and bimatoprost in conjunctiva-derived epithelial cells. Conjunctiva-derived epithelial cells were used to investigate, in vitro, the expression of various inflammation-associated markers known to be overexpresse... ...
