Hormone regulation of thrombospondin-1 mRNA in porcine granulosa cells in vitro
2022, Animal Reproduction ScienceGrowth factor regulation of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (Ptgs2) expression in colonic mesenchymal stem cells
2010, Journal of Biological ChemistryCitation Excerpt :However, a variety of other growth factors are also likely to be capable of regulating Ptgs2 expression in this cell type. These factors include FGFs other than Fgf9 (54), epidermal growth factor (55, 56), and insulin-like growth factor (57, 58). These various growth factors may act via a number of signaling networks that have been implicated in the regulation of Ptgs2, many of which are involved in the induction of gene expression during the inflammatory response rather than in constitutive expression (59).
Dexamethasone inhibits basic fibroblast growth factor-stimulated gastric epithelial cell proliferation
2008, Biochemical PharmacologyCitation Excerpt :The concentration is around 10–400 ng/ml if one estimates that 1 mg biopsy gastric specimen is about equal to the weight of 0.001 ml water. The bFGF concentrations we used in this study were 10–50 ng/ml which is also similar to other in vitro studies [14,16], and are within the physiological concentration of gastric ulcerated mucosa in humans. The concentration of dexamethasone (10−8 and 10−6 M) we used in this study was also similar to the pharmacologic concentration found in plasma of patients treated with dexamethasone [26,27].
Cyclooxygenase-2 and Tumor Biology
2007, Advances in Clinical ChemistryCitation Excerpt :COX‐2 inhibition also suppresses αVβ3‐mediated Cdc42/Rac‐dependent migration and spreading of endothelial cells [49], while PGE2 promotes these activities [50]. Interestingly, VEGF and bFGF induce COX‐2 and subsequent prostaglandin production in endothelial cells [51]. Salcedo et al. showed that PGE2 mediates VEGF‐ and bFGF‐induced CXCR4‐dependent neovessel assembly in vivo [52].
