Abstract:
In these studies, prostaglandin H synthase activity was increased in stably Harvey-ras transfected C3H10T1/2 cells. The level of total prostaglandin H synthase protein was two-fold higher in stably Harvey-ras transfected C3H10T1/2 cells than in control cells with no difference in prostaglandin H synthase-2 level. Prostaglandin H synthase-1 mRNA level was two-fold higher in transfected than in control cells, while prostaglandin H synthase-2 was not significantly different. Thus, prostaglandin H synthase-1, but not prostaglandin H synthase-2, expression was increased in Harvey-ras transfected C3H10T1/2 cells.

Treatment for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: Prostacyclin Receptor Agonists
These agonists bind to the IPR receptor situated on the plasma membrane of the pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells. This binding triggers a cascade of reactions known as the GS-AC-cAMP-PKA pathway. This pathway results in the relaxation of smooth muscle...
