The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) on the expression of the prostaglandin (PG) E(2) EP1 receptor subtype and PGE(2) production in amnion WISH cells (AWC). AWC cultures were incubated with

Objective: To visualize histochemically the prostaglandin EP1 receptor in human amnion cells and to study the effect of inflammatory cytokines, which are known to stimulate the EP1 receptor, on localization. Methods: Immortalized amnion cells, grown

Recent studies have demonstrated a strong correlation between infection and preterm labor. Preterm delivery is also associated with high levels of cytokines and prostaglandins in amniotic fluid. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect

PROBLEM: Although prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ) is believed to modulate biochemical and immunological events leading to parturition, the role of prostaglandin E receptors during labor has not been investigated. METHOD OF STUDY: Amnion WISH cells were in

Summary Fatty acids and their derivatives are involved in events associated with reproduction in invertebrates. The purpose of this study was to investigate the presence and variation in amount of selected fatty acids during vitellogenesis in the cra

Infection is a major cause of preterm labor. Amniotic fluid from women in preterm labor associated with intrauterine infection contains increased concentrations of cytokines. The mechanism underlying this association may be a cytokine-mediated stimul

Prostaglandins are oxygenated fatty acid derivatives of arachidonic acid involved in a number of vertebrate and invertebrate reproductive processes. While the role of prostaglandins in vertebrate reproduction has been well established, their function

Objective: To evaluate the modulatory effects of interleukin (IL)-1β and prostaglandin (PG)E2 on the PGE2 receptor subtype EP1 in amnion cell cultures. Methods: Amnion cell cultures were incubated in increasing concentrations of (IL)-1β or PGE2. Cu

Objective: We sought to determine a possible role for interleukin-4 in the control of umbilical cord blood flow by evaluating its effect on cyclooxygenase-2 production of a vasoactive prostaglandin. Study Design: Human umbilical vein endothelial cell

Prostaglandins production rises dramatically during term and preterm labor. The source of this production is thought to be the fetal membranes and maternal decidua. The enzyme responsible for the conversion of arachidonic acid to the prostaglandins a
