The Journal of Immunology MicroRNA-146a Negatively Regulates the Immunoregulatory Activity of Bone Marrow Stem Cells by Targeting Prostaglandin E2 Synthase-2 Mariola Matysiak, Maria Fortak-Michalska, Bozena_ Szymanska, Wojciech Orlowski, Anna Jurewicz, and Krzysztof Selmaj The molecular mechanisms that regulate the immune function of bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are not known. We have shown previously that freshly isolated BMSCs when induced to express neuronal stem cell markers lose immunoregulatory function when transferred into mice sensitized to develop experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. Re- cently, microRNAs (miRs) have been shown to be involved in the regulation of several immune responses in both innate and acquired immunity. We now show that among several differentially expressed miRs, miR-146a was strongly upregulated in Downloaded from neuronally differentiated when compared with miR-146a expression in freshly isolated BMSCs or control BMSCs cultured in parallel but in nondifferentiating medium. Inhibition of miR-146a with a selective antagomir restored the immunoregulatory activity of nBMSCs. We mapped miR-146a to its multiple predicted target mRNA transcripts and found that miR-146a was predicted to block PGE2 synthase (ptges-2). We then showed that Ptges-2 was directly targeted by miR-146a using a luciferase reporter assay. Furthermore, increased expression of miR-146a in BMSCs correlated with inhibition of PGE synthase-2 and inhibition of PGE2 release. Accordingly, inhibition of miR-146a restored synthesis of PGE2. These data support the conclusion that http://www.jimmunol.org/ miR-146a plays a critical role in the control of the immunoregulatory potential of BMSCs.

  • Coexpression of Microsomal Prostaglandin E Synthase With
    Coexpression of Microsomal Prostaglandin E Synthase with Cyclooxygenase-2 in Human Rheumatoid Synovial Cells FUMIAKI KOJIMA, HIROAKI NARABA, YASUHARU SASAKI, RENZO OKAMOTO, TOMIHISA KOSHINO, and SHINICHI KAWAI ABSTRACT. Objective. Recently, microsomal prostaglandin (PG) E synthase (mPGES) was cloned as a terminal enzyme catalyzing PGH2 to PGE2. We investigated mPGES as well as cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, catalyzing arachidonic acid to PGH2, in synovial cells from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The effect of dexamethasone on mPGES expression was also studied. Methods. Synovial cells were treated with interleukin 1ß (IL-1ß) and dexamethasone under various conditions, and expression of mPGES mRNA and protein was analyzed by Northern blot and Western blot, respectively. Conversions of arachidonic acid or PGH2 to PGE2 were measured by ELISA. Subcellular localization of mPGES and COX-2 was determined by immunofluorescent microscopic analysis. Results. mPGES mRNA and protein expression were significantly upregulated by IL-1ß in synovial cells. COX-2 mRNA and protein were also upregulated by IL-1ß, but with a different time course from that of mPGES. Conversion of PGH2 to PGE2 was increased by IL-1ß and was correlated with mPGES expression. Increased conversion of arachidonic acid to PGE2 was maintained when mPGES and COX-2 were coexpressed. Subcellular localization of mPGES and COX-2 overlapped in the perinuclear region in IL-1ß stimulated synovial cells. Dexamethasone inhibited mRNA and protein expression for mPGES and increased conversion of arachidonic acid to PGE2, but inhibition of mPGES was weaker compared with that of COX-2 in IL-1ß stimulated cells. Conclusion. The results suggest that abundant PGE2 production at inflammation sites such as rheumatoid synovia is caused by the coordinated upregulation of mPGES and COX-2.

  • Expression and Regulation of Microsomal Prostaglandin E Synthase
    Expression and Regulation of Microsomal Prostaglandin E Synthase-1 in Human Osteoarthritic Cartilage and Chondrocytes XINFANG LI, HASSAN AFIF, SARANETTE CHENG, JOHANNE MARTEL-PELLETIER, JEAN-PIERRE PELLETIER, PIERRE RANGER, and HASSAN FAHMI ABSTRACT. Objective. Elevated production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) plays an important role in the pathogen- esis of arthritis. Recently, an inducible microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) was identified. This enzyme is functionally coupled with cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and converts the COX product PGH2 to PGE2. We analyzed expression of mPGES-1 in human normal and osteoarthritic (OA) cartilage and determined the effect of different inflammatory agonists on the expression of mPGES-1 in OA chondrocytes. Methods. Expression of mPGES-1 mRNA and protein in cartilage was determined by quantitative real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry, respectively. OA chondrocytes were treated with different inflammatory agents, and mPGES-1 protein expression was evaluated by Western blot. Activation of the mPGES-1 promoter was assessed in transient trans- fection experiments. Results. Levels of mPGES-1 mRNA and protein were markedly elevated in OA versus normal car- tilage. Treatment of chondrocytes with interleukin 1ß (IL-1ß) induced expression of mPGES-1 pro- tein in a dose- and time-dependent manner. This appears to occur at the transcriptional level, as IL- 1ß induced expression of mPGES-1 mRNA and the activity of this gene promoter. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and IL-17 also upregulated expression of mPGES-1 protein and displayed a syn- ergistic effect with IL-1ß. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ ligands, 15-deoxy-∆12,14- prostaglandin J2 and troglitazone, inhibited IL-1ß-induced mPGES-1 protein expression, an effect that was reversed by exogenous PGE2.

  • Inhibition of PTGS1 Promotes Osteogenic Differentiation Of
    Wang et al. Stem Cell Research & Therapy (2019) 10:57 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13287-019-1167-3 RESEARCH Open Access Inhibition of PTGS1 promotes osteogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells by suppressing NF-kB signaling Yuejun Wang1,2, Yunsong Liu1,2, Min Zhang1,2, Longwei Lv1,2, Xiao Zhang1,2, Ping Zhang1,2* and Yongsheng Zhou1,2* Abstract Background: Tissue inflammation is an important problem in the field of human adipose-derived stem cell (ASC)- based therapeutic bone regeneration. Many studies indicate that inflammatory cytokines are disadvantageous for osteogenic differentiation and bone formation. Therefore, overcoming inflammation would be greatly beneficial in promoting ASC-mediated bone regeneration. The present study aims to investigate the potential anti-inflammatory role of Prostaglandin G/H synthase 1 (PTGS1) during the osteogenic differentiation of ASCs. Methods: We performed TNFα treatment to investigate the response of PTGS1 to inflammation. Loss- and gain-of- function experiments were applied to investigate the function of PTGS1 in the osteogenic differentiation of ASCs ex vivo and in vivo. Western blot and confocal analyses were used to determine the molecular mechanism of PTGS1-regulated osteogenic differentiation. Results: Our work demonstrates that PTGS1 expression is significantly increased upon inflammatory cytokine treatment. Both ex vivo and in vivo studies indicate that PTGS1 is required for the osteogenic differentiation of ASCs. Mechanistically, we show that PTGS1 regulates osteogenesis of ASCs via modulating the NF-κB signaling pathway. Conclusions: Collectively, this work confirms that the PTGS1-NF-κB signaling pathway is a novel molecular target for ASC-mediated regenerative medicine. Keywords: PTGS1, NF-κB, Osteogenic differentiation, ASCs Background tissue.

    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-021-02488-1 OPEN In situ imaging reveals disparity between prostaglandin localization and abundance of prostaglandin synthases ✉ Kyle D. Duncan 1,5, Xiaofei Sun 2,3,5, Erin S. Baker 4, Sudhansu K. Dey 2,3 & Ingela Lanekoff 1 Prostaglandins are important lipids involved in mediating many physiological processes, such as allergic responses, inflammation, and pregnancy. However, technical limitations of in-situ prostaglandin detection in tissue have led researchers to infer prostaglandin tissue dis- tributions from localization of regulatory synthases, such as COX1 and COX2. Herein, we apply a novel mass spectrometry imaging method for direct in situ tissue localization of 1234567890():,; prostaglandins, and combine it with techniques for protein expression and RNA localization. We report that prostaglandin D2, its precursors, and downstream synthases co-localize with the highest expression of COX1, and not COX2. Further, we study tissue with a conditional deletion of transformation-related protein 53 where pregnancy success is low and confirm that PG levels are altered, although localization is conserved. Our studies reveal that the abundance of COX and prostaglandin D2 synthases in cellular regions does not mirror the regional abundance of prostaglandins. Thus, we deduce that prostaglandins tissue localization and abundance may not be inferred by COX or prostaglandin synthases in uterine tissue, and must be resolved by an in situ prostaglandin imaging. 1 Department of Chemistry-BMC, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden. 2 Division of Reproductive Sciences, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, OH 45229, USA. 3 College of Medicine, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45221, USA.

In this review, we focus on their influence on platelets, which are key elements in thrombosis and hemostasis. The function of platelets is influenced by mediators in the blood and the vascular wall. Activated platelets aggregate and release bioactive substances, thereby activating further neighbored platelets, which finally can lead to the formation of thrombi. Prostanoids regulate the function of blood platelets by both activating or inhibiting and so are involved in hemostasis. Each prostanoid has a unique activity profile and, thus, a specific profile of action. This article reviews the effects of the following prostanoids: prostaglandin-D2 (PGD2), prostaglandin-E1, -E2 and E3 (PGE1, PGE2, PGE3), prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α), prostacyclin (PGI2) and thromboxane-A2 (TXA2) on platelet activation and aggregation via their respective receptors. Keywords: prostacyclin; thromboxane; prostaglandin; platelets 1. Introduction Hemostasis is a complex process that requires the interplay of multiple physiological pathways. Cellular and molecular mechanisms interact to stop bleedings of injured blood vessels or to seal denuded sub-endothelium with localized clot formation (Figure1).

  • Prostaglandin Signaling Regulates Nephron Segment Patterning Of
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Prostaglandin signaling regulates nephron segment patterning of renal progenitors during zebrafish kidney development Shahram Jevin Poureetezadi1,2, Christina N Cheng1,2, Joseph M Chambers1,2, Bridgette E Drummond1,2, Rebecca A Wingert1,2* 1Department of Biological Sciences, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, United States; 2Center for Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine, Center for Zebrafish Research, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, United States Abstract Kidney formation involves patterning events that induce renal progenitors to form nephrons with an intricate composition of multiple segments. Here, we performed a chemical genetic screen using zebrafish and discovered that prostaglandins, lipid mediators involved in many physiological functions, influenced pronephros segmentation. Modulating levels of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) or PGB2 restricted distal segment formation and expanded a proximal segment lineage. Perturbation of prostaglandin synthesis by manipulating Cox1 or Cox2 activity altered distal segment formation and was rescued by exogenous PGE2. Disruption of the PGE2 receptors Ptger2a and Ptger4a similarly affected the distal segments. Further, changes in Cox activity or irx3b sim1a PGE2 levels affected expression of the transcription factors and that mitigate pronephros segment patterning. These findings show for the first time that PGE2 is a regulator of nephron formation in the zebrafish embryonic kidney, thus revealing that prostaglandin signaling may have implications for renal birth defects and other diseases.

PGE 2 has physiological as well as pathophysiological functions and is known to be a key mediator of inflammatory responses. Formation of PGE 2 is dependent upon the activities of three specific enzymes involved in the AA cascade; phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2), cyclooxygenase (COX) and PGE synthase (PGEs). Although the research within this field has been intense for decades, the regulatory mechanisms concerning the PGE 2 synthesising enzymes are not completely established. PGE 2 was investigated in human monocytes with or without lipopolysaccharide (LPS) pre-treatment followed by stimulation with calcium ionophore, opsonised zymosan or phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Cytosolic PLA 2α (cPLA 2α) was shown to be pivotal for the mobilization of AA and subsequent formation of PGE 2. Although COX-1 was constitutively expressed, monocytes required expression of COX-2 protein in order to convert the mobilized AA into PGH 2. The conversion of PGH 2 to the final product PGE 2 was to a large extent due to the action of microsomal PGEs-1 (mPGEs-1).

  • Prostaglandin Transporter OATP2A1/SLCO2A1 Is Essential for Body Temperature Regulation During Fever
    5584 • The Journal of Neuroscience, June 13, 2018 • 38(24):5584–5595 Neurobiology of Disease Prostaglandin Transporter OATP2A1/SLCO2A1 Is Essential for Body Temperature Regulation during Fever Yoshinobu Nakamura,1 XTakeo Nakanishi,1 Hiroaki Shimada,1,2 Junya Shimizu,1 Rika Aotani,1 Shio Maruyama,1 Kei Higuchi,3 Takashi Okura,3 Yoshiharu Deguchi,3 and Ikumi Tamai1 1Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Institute of Medical, Pharmaceutical, and Health Sciences, Kanazawa University, Kanazawa 920-1192, Japan, 2Faculty of Pharmacy, Kindai University, Osaka 577-8502, Japan, and 3Faculty of Pharma-Sciences, Teikyo University, Tokyo 173-8605, Japan Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2 ) in the hypothalamus is a principal mediator of the febrile response. However, the role of organic anion trans- porting polypeptide 2A1 (OATP2A1/SLCO2A1), a prostaglandin transporter, in facilitating this response is unknown. Here, we investi- gated the effect of Slco2a1 deficiency on the body core temperature (Tc) and on the PGE2 concentration in hypothalamus interstitial fluid ␮ Ϫ/Ϫ (Cisf ) and CSF (Ccsf ) of lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 100 g/kg, i.p.)-treated mice of both sexes. Slco2a1 mice did not develop a febrile ϩ/ϩ Ϫ/Ϫ Ϫ/Ϫ response. Ccsf was increased in Slco2a1 and Slco2a1 mice, and Ccsf of Slco2a1 mice was well maintained at 5 h after LPS ϩ/ϩ injection (1160 pg/ml) compared with Slco2a1 mice (316 pg/ml). A microdialysis study revealed that Cisf peaked at 2 h after LPS ϩ/ϩ Ϫ/Ϫ injection in Slco2a1 mice (841 pg/ml), whereas the increase in Cisf was negligible in Slco2a1 mice. The PGE2 plasma concentration in Slco2a1 Ϫ/Ϫ mice (201 pg/ml) was significantly higher than that in Slco2a1 ϩ/ϩ mice (54 pg/ml) at 1 h after LPS injection, whereas the two groups showed similar PGE2 concentrations in the hypothalamus.
