Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) was recently identified as being regulated by the induction of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in response to high fluid shear stress. Although the metabolic products of COX-2, including prostaglandin (PG)E2, 15-deoxy-Δ12,14-PGJ2 (15d-PGJ2), and PGF2α, have been reported to be effective in regulating the occurrence and development of OA by activating matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), the roles of PGF2α in OA are largely overlooked. Thus, we showed that high fluid shear stress induced the mRNA expression of MMP-12 via cyclic (c)AMP- and PGF2α-dependent signaling pathways. Specifically, we found that high fluid shear stress (20 dyn/cm2) significantly increased the expression of MMP-12 at 6 h ( > fivefold), which then slightly decreased until 48 h ( > threefold). In addition, shear stress enhanced the rapid synthesis of PGE2 and PGF2α, which generated synergistic effects on the expression of MMP-12 via EP2/EP3-, PGF2α receptor (FPR)-, cAMP- and insulin growth factor-2 (IGF-2)-dependent phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K)/protein kinase B (AKT), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)/c-Jun, and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB)-activating pathways. Prolonged shear stress induced the synthesis of 15d-PGJ2, which is responsible for suppressing the high levels of MMP-12 at 48 h. These in vitro observations were further validated by in vivo experiments to evaluate the mechanisms of MMP-12 upregulation during the onset of OA by high fluid shear stress. By delineating this signaling pathway, our data provide a targeted therapeutic basis for combating OA. Shear stress induces cartilage cells to produce hormone-like molecules that activate the expression of an enzyme implicated in the development of osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease. Pu Wang and colleagues from Northeastern University in Shenyang, China, exposed human cartilage cells to high fluid shear stress for up to 2 days. This frictional strain rapidly stimulated the production of a proinflammatory enzyme, COX-2, which in turn promoted the synthesis of two hormone-like substances, called prostaglandins. These prostaglandins, PGE2 and PGF2α, then induced expression of an osteoarthritis-associated enzyme called MMP-12 that destroys the supporting structure that surrounds cartilage cells. The researchers, working both in human cells and in mouse models, further delineated several intermediate signaling molecules in the pathway linking shear stress with MMP-12 activation, thereby revealing several new potential drug targets for combating osteoarthritis in patients.

Abstract
The mechanical overloading of cartilage is involved in the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA) by both biochemical and mechanical pathways. The application of fluid shear stress to chondrocytes recapitulates the earmarks of OA, as evidenced by the release of proinflammatory cytokines (PICs), matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and apoptotic factors. Dysregulations or mutations in these genes might directly cause OA in addition to determining the stage at which OA becomes apparent, the joint sites involved, and the severity of the disease and how rapidly it progresses. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. In this review, we propose that the dysregulation of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is associated with fluid shear stress-induced OA via its metabolic products at different stages of the disease. Indeed, high fluid shear stress rapidly induces the production of PICs and MMPs via COX-2-derived prostaglandin (PG)E2 at the early stage of OA. In contrast, prolonged shear exposure (>12 h) aggravates the condition by concurrently up-regulating the expression of proapoptotic genes and down-regulating the expression of antiapoptotic genes in a 15-deoxy-Δ (12,14)-prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2)-dependent manner at the late stage of disease. These observations may help to resolve long-standing questions in OA progression and provide insight for development of strategies to treat and combat OA.

Abstract
Francisella tularensis is a highly infectious bacterial pathogen, and is likely to have evolved strategies to evade and subvert the host immune response. In this study, we show that F. tularensis infection of macrophages alters T cell responses in vitro, by blocking T cell proliferation and promoting a Th2-like response. We demonstrate that a soluble mediator is responsible for this effect and identify it as PGE(2). Supernatants from F. tularensis-infected macrophages inhibited IL-2 secretion from both MHC class I and MHC class II-restricted T cell hybridomas, as well as enhanced a Th2-like response by inducing increased production of IL-5. Furthermore, the soluble mediator blocked proliferation of naive MHC class I-restricted T cells when stimulated with cognate tetramer. Indomethacin treatment partially restored T cell proliferation and lowered IL-5 production to wild-type levels. Macrophages produced PGE(2) when infected with F. tularensis, and treatment of infected macrophages with indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase-1/cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, blocked PGE(2) production. To further demonstrate that PGE(2) was responsible for skewing of T cell responses, we infected macrophages from membrane PGE synthase 1 knockout mice (mPGES1(-/-)) that cannot produce PGE(2). Supernatants from F. tularensis-infected membrane PGE synthase 1(-/-) macrophages did not inhibit T cell proliferation. Furthermore, treatment of T cells with PGE(2) recreated the effects seen with infected supernatant. From these data, we conclude that F. tularensis can alter host T cell responses by causing macrophages to produce PGE(2). This study defines a previously unknown mechanism used by F. tularensis to modulate adaptive immunity.

Abstract
The objective was to determine the effects of folic acid+glycine supplement on uterine metabolism of prostaglandin and mRNA expression of endometrial granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in nulliparous (NYL) and multiparous Yorkshire-Landrace (YL) sows, and in multiparous Meishan-Landrace sows (ML). In each of these three groups, sows were randomly assigned to two treatments: 15 ppm folic acid+0.6% glycine or no supplement. The dietary supplement was given from the estrus before mating to slaughter on Day 25 of pregnancy. At slaughter, endometrial tissue was collected to determine endometrial expression levels of GM-CSF mRNA, cyclooxygenase-1 (COX1) and -2 (COX2) and to evaluate in vitro endometrial secretion of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) secretion. Allantoic fluid samples were also collected to determine the concentration of PGE2, prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha), estradiol-17beta (E2), progesterone (P4), and transforming-growth factor-beta2 (TGF-beta2). The allantoic contents of PGF2alpha, E2 and P4, and endometrial in vitro secretion of PGE2 were not significantly influenced by the folic acid+glycine supplement. The folic acid+glycine supplement tended (P<0.07) to increase allantoic content of PGE2 and TGF-beta2 in all sows and increased (P<0.05) endometrial expression of COX2, especially in NYL sows. The endometrial expression of COX1 was decreased (P<0.05) by folic acid+glycine supplement, especially in multiparous YL sows. The allantoic contents of PGE2 and PGF2alpha were not significantly affected by sow type. However, NYL sows had higher (P<0.05) endometrial in vitro secretion of PGE2 and allantoic content of P4 than multiparous YL and ML sows. The allantoic content of E2 was also higher (P<0.05) in NYL sows than in multiparous ML sows only. The allantoic content of TGF-beta2 was lower (P<0.05) in multiparous ML than in multiparous YL only sows. Finally, in YL and NYL sows, folic acid+glycine supplement decreased (P<0.05) the endometrial expression of GM-CSF but not in ML sows. In summary, folic acid+glycine supplement altered endometrial expression of GM-CSF and uterine metabolism of prostaglandins during the post-attachment period of porcine embryos but some of these effects were manifest only in Meishan and nulliparous sows.

Abstract
A number of lines of evidence suggests that chronic inflammation contributes to the process of carcinogenesis. In this article, this theme is explored with particular emphasis on the involvement of inflammation in the development of lung cancer. A number of molecular pathways activated in chronic inflammation may contribute to lung carcinogenesis. The challenge is to conceptualize a cohesive picture of this complex biology that allows for effective pharmaceutical intervention. Initial therapeutic efforts involve strategies to block single pathways, such as with cyclooxygenase (COX) activity. However, the more that is learned about the consequences of COX activity, the more evident are the relationships of this enzyme to other classes of regulatory molecules such as the potent nuclear factor-kB. In light of this emerging picture, more global intervention strategies, such as with drug combinations, may be essential for success. Further basic study is essential to sort out possible molecular relationships and to permit elucidation of the most critical regulatory circuits. Given the complexity of these molecular interactions, well-designed clinical trials that specifically evaluate the precise effects of particular antiinflammatory drugs on lung carcinogenesis will also be critical to sort out the complexity and to validate successful approaches to arresting lung carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Nonselective cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition during allergic sensitization with ovalbumin in a murine model leads to an increase in the Type 2 cytokines interleukin-5 (IL-5) and IL-13; however, the effect of selective COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitors on these cytokines is unknown. We found that COX-1 protein was constitutively expressed in lung tissue. Expression of COX-1 protein did not increase with ovalbumin sensitization, but expression of COX-2 protein did. Ovalbumin-sensitized mice treated with either selective COX-1 inhibitor SC58560 (OVA-COX-1 inhibitor) or selective COX-2 inhibitor SC58236 (OVA-COX-2 inhibitor) had significantly greater airway hyperresponsiveness (p < 0.05) and higher levels of IL-13 (p < 0.05) in lung supernatants than did untreated mice that were ovalbumin sensitized (OVA). Lung mRNA levels for the chemokine receptors CCR1 through CCR5 (expressed on eosinophils, basophils, lymphocytes, and dendritic cells) were increased in the OVA-COX-2 inhibitor and OVA-indomethacin groups. We conclude that in the BALB/c mouse, COX inhibition with either a COX-1 or COX-2 inhibitor during allergen sensitization augments production of IL-13 and increases airway hyperresponsiveness.

Abstract
The immunomodulatory role of arachidonic acid metabolites in allergic sensitization is undefined. Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), a product of arachidonic acid metabolism through the cyclooxygenase pathway, has been reported to favor Type 2-like cytokine secretion profiles in murine and human CD4(+) T cells by inhibiting the production of Type 1-associated cytokines. On the basis of these in vitro data, we hypothesized that indomethacin, a nonselective cyclooxygenase inhibitor, would diminish allergen-induced production of Type 2 cytokines in mice, and protect against airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) to methacholine. We found that ovalbumin-sensitized mice that were treated with indomethacin (OVA-indomethacin mice) had significantly greater AHR (p < 0.05) and higher levels of IL-5 (176 +/- 52 versus 66 +/- 4 pg/ml) and IL-13 (1,226 +/- 279 versus 475 +/- 65 pg/ml) in lung supernatants than mice sensitized with ovalbumin alone (OVA mice), while levels of IL-4 and serum IgE were not different. Lung mRNA expression of the C-C chemokine MCP-1 was increased in OVA-indomethacin mice, while there was no difference between the two groups in lung mRNA expression of eotaxin, MIP-1alpha, MIP-1beta, or MIP-2. Histologic examination revealed greater pulmonary interstitial eosinophilia in OVA-indomethacin mice as well. Contrary to our expectations, we conclude that in the BALB/c mouse, cyclooxygenase inhibition during allergen sensitization increases AHR, production of IL-5 and IL-13, and interstitial eosinophilia.

Abstract
The effects of Prostaglandin (PG) E2 treatment of human T lymphocytes on polyamine metabolism were investigated. PGE2 is known to inhibit lymphocyte proliferation, while polyamines play an important role in several biochemical processes leading to increased cell growth. Preincubation of T lymphocytes with PGE2 (10(-6) M) for 10 min was able to increase ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity and putrescine as well as spermine levels, while spermidine concentration was drastically reduced. After 30 and 60 min of treatment, a decrease in ODC activity and putrescine concentration was observed. On the contrary, the initial inhibition of spermine-N1-acetyltransferase (SAT) activity was followed by a progressive increase of this catabolic enzyme. These changes were related to modifications of cAMP concentrations. Our data may help clarify the mechanisms underlying the biphasic effect of PGE2, which ultimately leads to inhibition of cell proliferation.

Abstract
The role of the cAMP pathway as an immunomodulatory system has been an area of intensive research. Pharmacological elevation of the cAMP pathway inhibits T lymphocyte proliferation and production of Th1-type cytokines. The effects of cAMP are thought to be mediated via activation of the intracellular receptor, protein kinase A (PKA). We investigated the inhibitory effects of cAMP elevation on human lymphocyte proliferation and function by utilising a range of selective inhibitors of PKA. Elevation of cAMP activity by dbcAMP, Sp-cAMPS and forskolin induced significant decreases of Con A stimulated PBMC proliferation. Co-incubation with the selective PKA inhibitors HA1004, KT5720 and Rp-cAMPS showed these antiproliferative effects to persist, despite measurable PKA activity being inhibited to that of untreated cells or less. IL-2 production was also inhibited by dbcAMP in the presence of HA1004 and Rp-cAMPS. It has been demonstrated that the inhibitory effects of pharmacological elevations in cAMP on human T cell proliferation and IL-2 production do not require PKA activity. These observations indicate that control of lymphocyte proliferation and functional status by cAMP proceeds through PKA-independent events. Identification of the underlying mechanisms behind these effects would increase our understanding of the cAMP cascade and may provide a potentially novel target for immunomodulation.

Abstract
High levels of histamine can be found in the airways of asthma patients. This study describes the effects of histamine on anti-CD3-induced production of IL-4, IL-5, and IFN-gamma by T cell clones from subjects with allergic asthma and healthy subjects. T cell clones were obtained from bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and blood. The number of clones tested, and the percentage of clones in which histamine inhibited or enhanced cytokine production by more than 25%, were as follows: IL-4, 47, 8.5%, and 4.3%; IL-5, 43, 14%, and 30%; and IFN-gamma, 52, 40%, and 15%. Inhibition of IL-5 and IFN-gamma production was reversed by IL-2. The enhancement of IFN-gamma production was associated with an enhancement of both IL-2 production and proliferation. In 21% of the clones a combined effect consisting of inhibition of IFN-gamma production and enhancement of IL-5 production was found. This response was reversed by H2-receptor antagonists and was significantly associated with a histamine-induced increase in intracellular levels of cAMP. The role of cAMP in mediating the histamine effects was supported by the observations that the beta2-agonist salbutamol had effects similar to histamine and that high concentrations of PGE2 mimicked the inhibitory effects of histamine. Clones from BAL fluid and blood showed similar responses, as did clones from patients with asthma and from control subjects. The enhancement of IFN-gamma production by histamine, however, was found only in clones from healthy subjects. The results warrant further investigations on the role of cAMP in the regulation of cytokine production.

Abstract
PGE2 treatment of mononuclear cells from patients with different types of neoplasias was unable to decrease either the number of plaque-forming cells or the expression of CD71 and CD25 in PWM-driven cultures. In contrast, in previous studies, PGE2 inhibited these parameters in cultured mononuclear cells from normal volunteers. Surgical treatment of cancer patients did not modify the lymphocyte sensitivity to PGE2 after 1 week, but at 2 and 6 months after therapeutical treatment, the inhibition values of the parameters studied were almost similar or very similar to those of normal lymphocytes. The reduction of PGE2 sensitivity in cancer patients was related to the increase of PGE2 levels and, probably, to a PGE2 receptor saturation. A restoration of PGE2-induced inhibition some months after therapy could be due to the decrease in PGE2 levels and to receptor unsaturation.

Abstract
Suppressed granulocyte and macrophage growth after burn infection or endotoxicosis appears to be mediated by macrophage-derived products. In this study, we found that after burn, burn plus infection, or endotoxicosis, peritoneal-elicited macrophages or bone marrow cells released increased amounts of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and inhibited growth of granulocyte-macrophage progenitor cells (GM-CFC). PGE2, when added in culture, inhibited in vitro GM-CFC growth in a dose-dependent manner. Pretreatment of bone marrow cells with either dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate or Forskolin in vitro mimicked the PGE2 inhibition, further aggravated the inhibition induced by burn, burn plus infection, or endotoxicosis, and was not blocked by co-culture with indomethacin. Pretreatment of bone marrow cells with SQ22536, an adenylate cyclase inhibitor, significantly restored the suppressed GM-CFC growth found after burn, burn plus infection, or endotoxicosis. Alterations in myeloid production after burn infection appear to be related in part to the level of intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate for the GM-CFC and are responsive to PGE2.
