The presence of prostaglandin E (PGE) in rheumatoid synovium was investigated by immunoelectron microscopy; horseradish peroxidase-conjugated antibodies were used to stain the PGE. PGE was stained mainly in cytoplasmic granules of macrophage-like cells of the rheumatoid synovium. These granules had
Objective. Microsomal prostaglandin E synthase 1 (mPGES-1) catalyzes the formation of PGE 2 from cyclooxygenase-derived PGH 2 . Microsomal PGES-1 is induced by proinflammatory cytokines and is strongly linked to conditions that result in high PGE 2 biosynthesis. PGE 2 contributes to the pathogenesis
