iNOS/PGE2-IN-1 is an iNOS/PGE2 inhibitor and a potent anti-inflammatory agent. iNOS/PGE2-IN-1 exhibits an inhibitory effect on LPS-induced NO production and has a low ulcerogenic potential.

HPGDS inhibitor 2 (GSK-2894631A) is a potent, selective hematopoietic prostaglandin D synthase (h-pgds) inhibitor, IC50 = 9.9 nm.

Epimagnolin B has anti-inflammatory activity, it can inhibit the production of NO and PGE(2) and the expression of respective enzyme iNOS and COX-2 through the suppression of I-kappaB-alpha degradation and nuclear translocation of p65 subunit of NF-kappaB. It also exhibits antiallergic effects without affecting the viability of bone marrow-derived mast cells.

Skullcapflavone I has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic potential, it can significantly inhibit LPS stimulated NO and PGE(2) release in J774A.1 macrophages and inhibit LPS induced IL-6 production in a concentration dependent manner. Skullcapflavone I se

1,2,3-Trilinoelaidoyl-rac-glycerol is a triacylglycerol that contains linoelaidic acid at the sn-1, sn-2, and sn-3 positions. Dietary administration of 1,2,3-trilinoelaidoyl-rac-glycerol (0.6-6.3% w/w) lowers serum levels of thromboxane B2 , prostaglandin F2 (PGF2), and PGE in rats.1 |1. Bruckner, G., Goswami, S., and Kinsella, J.E. Dietary trilinoelaidate: Effects on organ fatty acid composition, prostanoid biosynthesis and platelet function in rats. J. Nutr. 114(1), 58-67 (1984).

19(R)-Hydroxylated prostaglandins (PGs) are present at µg/ml concentrations in the semen of some mammalian species, notably primates, with the majority being from the PGE series and featuring a 15(S),19(R) hydroxyl stereochemistry. These compounds are also observed in marsupials' seminal plasma, where F-type 1 and 2-series compounds are predominant. The 15(R)-hydroxy epimer represents the inverse or unnatural isomer at C-15 for these 19-hydroxylated PGs. Although the biological function of 19(R)-hydroxylated PGs remains unclear, 19(R)-hydroxylation in the F-series leads to a notable reduction in receptor-mediated biological activity in certain assays.

AS1940477 is p38 MAPK inhibitor. AS1940477 inhibited the enzymatic activity of recombinant p38α and β isoforms but showed no effect against other 100 protein kinases including p38γ and δ isoforms. In human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, AS1940477 inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)- or phytohemagglutinin A (PHA)-induced production of proinflammatory cytokines, including TNFα, IL-1β, and IL-6 at low concentrations (LPS/TNFα, IC(50)=0.45n M; PHA/TNFα, IC(50)=0.40 nM). In addition, equivalent concentrations of AS1940477 that inhibited cytokine production also inhibited TNFα- and IL-1 β-induced production of IL-6, PGE(2), and MMP-3 in human synovial stromal cells. AS1940477 was also found to potently inhibit TNF production in whole blood (IC(50)=12 nM) and effectively inhibited TNFα production induced by systemically administered LPS in rats at less than 0.1mg/kg (ED(50)=0.053 mg/kg) with an anti-inflammatory effect lasting for 20h after oral administration. Overall, this stu......

Prostaglandin E2 Ethanolamide (PGE 2 -EA), an analog of PGE2, is enzymatically synthesized through COX-2 oxygenation of endocannabinoids. It has the potential to modulate the production of the proinflammatory cytokine TNF-α in human blood and monocytic cells [1] [2].

Sphondin has anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-proliferative activities, it possessed an inhibitory effect on IL-1beta-induced increase in the level of COX-2 protein and PGE(2) release in A549 cells.

Povafonidine (PGE-6201204) is a potent alpha-2 adrenoreceptor agonist. Povafonidine can constrict blood vessels and reduce mucosal congestion which can be used for nasal congestion research [1].

AF3442 is a potent and selective mPGES-1 inhibitor (microsomal prostaglandin (PG) E synthase-1). AF3442 caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of PGE(2) in human recombinant mPGES-1 with an IC(50) of 0.06microM. AF3442 is a selective mPGES-1 inhibitor which reduced monocyte PGE(2) generation also in the presence of plasma proteins. Pharmacological inhibition of mPGES-1 did not translate into redirection of PGH(2) metabolism towards other terminal PG synthases in monocytes. The functional relevance of this observation deserves to be investigated in vivo.

GW833972 is a CB2 Agonist. GW 833972A inhibited capsaicin-induced depolarization of the human and guinea-pig and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and hypertonic saline-induced depolarization of the guinea-pig isolated vagus nerve in vitro. GW 833972A also inhibited citric acid-induced cough but not plasma extravasation in the guinea-pig and this effect was blocked by a CB(2) receptor antagonist.

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is a naturally occurring hormone involved in a variety of physiological processes in the body, including smooth muscle contraction and relaxation, regulation of vasodilatation and constriction, regulation of blood pressure, and inflammatory regulation.
