Prostaglandins and nitric oxide (NO) are among the numerous substances released by activated microglial cells, the brain resident macrophages, and they mediate several important microglial functions. We have previously shown that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible NO synthase (iNOS), the two key

Retinoic acid (RA) is a well-known antiinflammatory agent. In this study, we show that RA has a dual effect on cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in inflammatory activated microglia, the resident brain macrophages. After treatment of microglia with LPS or thrombin, COX-2 expression was induced in t
