Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a biological mediator for connective tissue cells and plays a critical role in a wide variety of physiological and pathological processes. We here investigated the effect of PDGF on arachidonic acid release and prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ) synthesis in human gi

## Abstract Heme oxygenase (HO)‐1 is a cytoprotective molecule that is induced during the response to injury. An increase in HO‐1 is an acute indicator of inflammation, and early induction of HO‐1 has been suggested to correlate with severity of injury. While a great deal is known about the inducti
## Abstract ## Objective To elucidate the mechanism of basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystal–induced prostaglandin E~2~ (PGE~2~) production in human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs), to identify the signaling pathway involved in the induction of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX‐2) messenger RNA (mRNA) by BCP crys
## Abstract The leptomeninges play a central role in the antiinflammatory response through the glia–neuron interaction during systemic inflammation. In the present study, we examined the possible production of two potent antiinflammatory mediators, prostaglandin E~2~ (PGE~2~) and transforming growt
Oncostatin M (OSM), a cytokine of the interleukin-6 family, is expressed in rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, multiple myeloma, and other inflammatory and neoplastic conditions. Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), an eicosanoid also associated with inflammation and cancer, has recently been shown t
