Prostaglandin E2 Mediates IL-1β-Related Fibroblast Mitogenic Effects in Acute Lung Injury through Differential Utilization of Prostanoid Receptors

Abstract: The fibroproliferative response to acute lung injury (ALI) results in severe, persistent respiratory dysfunction. We have reported that IL-1β is elevated in pulmonary edema fluid in those with ALI and mediates an autocrine-acting, fibroblast mitogenic pathway. In this study, we examine the role of IL-1β-mediated induction of cyclooxygenase-2 and PGE2, and evaluate the significance of individual E prostanoid (EP) receptors in mediating the fibroproliferative effects of IL-1β in ALI. Blocking studies on human lu… Show more

“…The implication of this pathway elucidates other possible avenues for dioxin-mediated lung dysfunction-in particular, the possibility that IL-1b, a strong COX-2 activator, as well as marker of TCDD oxidative stress (19,20), acts as a conduit between AhR and COX-2 activation. This mechanism is supported by a recent study that proposes that acute lung injury via IL-1b results from the activation of prostenoids, such as prostaglandin E2 (21), which activate mucin secretion.…”

“…Indeed, the EP 3 receptor mediates contraction of human pulmonary artery (Maddox et al, 1985;Haye-Legrand et al, 1987;Norel et al, 1991;Qian et al, 1994;Walch et al, 1999) and may modulate relaxant IP receptor function (Jones et al, 1997;Chan and Jones, 2004). In addition, EP 3 receptor signaling is profibrotic (White et al, 2008;Bozyk and Moore, 2011;Harding and LaPointe, 2011) and may limit the beneficial effects of treprostinil in PAH.…”

“…LPS-stimulated LTB 4 from primary human monocytes/macrophages (U937 macrophages did not secrete LTB 4 ) was only weakly inhibited by the ginger extract. The double inhibition of prostanoid secretion and IL-1b by ginger phenylpropanoids is interesting because IL-1b is known to reinforce PGE 2 synthesis (70), which plays multiple roles in inflammatory processes (71,72).…”
