Abstract: We previously reported that various gastric irritants induced both apoptosis and necrosis in cultured gastric mucosal cells. In a continuation of this work, the present study has examined the effects of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a cytoprotective factor for gastric mucosa in vivo, on gastric irritant-induced apoptosis and necrosis in vitro. PGE2 inhibited ethanol-induced apoptosis and increased cell viability in a dose-dependent manner in primary cultures of guinea pig gastric mucosal cells. PGE2 also inhibited … Show more

“…In this experiment, cells were first incubated with PGE 2 (preincubation step) and then with ethanol in the presence of the same concentration of PGE 2 (incubation step). We confirmed that PGE 2 must be present in both steps in order to inhibit efficiently the ethanolinduced apoptosis (data not shown), as described previously (15). This method of PGE 2 treatment was thus used in all subsequent experiments.…”

“…We also reported that PGE 2 suppressed the ethanolmediated activation of caspase-3 (15). We therefore examined here the effect of PGE 2 on the activation of various caspases, including caspase-3, where caspase activities were examined by the use of fluorogenic peptide substrates (Ac-DEVD-MCA (for caspase-3), Ac-IETD-MCA (for caspase-8), and Ac-LEHD-MCA (for caspase-9)).…”

“…In turn, PGs, and PGE 2 in particular, have cytoprotective effects on the gastric mucosa. 7,8,17,18) We previously reported that the primary culture of guinea pig gastric mucosal cells produced PGE 2 continuously even without stressors. 19) On this basis we considered whether or not the effect of indomethacin on hydrochloric acid-induced apoptosis such as that seen in Fig.…”

“…2,3) We have also previously shown that endogenous factors that protect the gastric mucosa from such irritants (heat shock proteins (HSPs) and prostaglandins (PGs)) or anti-ulcer drugs suppress apoptosis and necrosis in this cell model. [4][5][6][7][8][9] This suggests that this in vitro system is useful for understanding the mechanisms underlying irritant-induced gastric lesions in vivo.…”
