The cyclopentenone prostaglandins (cyPGs) prostaglandin A1 (PGA1) and 15-deoxy-12,14-prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2) have been reported to exhibit antiinflammatory activity in activated monocytes/macrophages. However, the effects of these two cyPGs on the expression of cytokine genes may differ. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of action of PGA1 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced expression of interleukin (IL)-10 mRNA in mouse peritoneal macrophages. 15d-PGJ2 inhibited expression of LPSinduced IL-10, whereas PGA1 increased LPS-induced IL-10 expression. This synergistic effect of PGA1 on LPS-induced IL-10 expression reached a maximum as early as 2 h after simultaneous PGA1 and LPS treatment (PGA1/LPS), and did not require new protein synthesis. The synergistic effect of PGA1 was inhibited by GW9662, a specific peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) antagonist, and Bay-11-7082, a NF-kappaB inhibitor. The extracellular signalregulated kinases (ERK) inhibitor PD98059 increased the expression of PGA1/LPS-induced IL-10 mRNA, rather than inhibiting the IL-10 expression. Moreover, PGA1 inhibited LPS-induced ERK phosphorylation. The synergistic effect of PGA1 on LPS-induced IL-10 mRNA and protein production was inhibited by p38 inhibitor PD169316, and PGA1 increased LPS-induced p38 phosphorylation. In the case of stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (SAPK/JNK), the SAPK/JNK inhibitor SP600125 did not inhibit IL-10 mRNA synthesis but inhibited the production of IL-10 protein remarkably. These results suggest that the synergistic effect of PGA1 on LPS-induced IL-10 expression is NF-kappaB-dependent and mediated by mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases, p38, and SAPK/ JNK signaling pathways, and also associated with the PPARgamma pathway. Our data may provide more insight into the diverse mechanisms of PGA1 effects on the expression of cytokine genes.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008070	Lipopolysaccharides	Lipid-containing polysaccharides which are endotoxins and important group-specific antigens. They are often derived from the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria and induce immunoglobulin secretion. The lipopolysaccharide molecule consists of three parts: LIPID A, core polysaccharide, and O-specific chains (O ANTIGENS). When derived from Escherichia coli, lipopolysaccharides serve as polyclonal B-cell mitogens commonly used in laboratory immunology. (From Dorland, 28th ed)	Lipopolysaccharide,Lipoglycans
D008810	Mice, Inbred C57BL	One of the first INBRED MOUSE STRAINS to be sequenced. This strain is commonly used as genetic background for transgenic mouse models. Refractory to many tumors, this strain is also preferred model for studying role of genetic variations in development of diseases.

D011454	Prostaglandins A	(13E,15S)-15-Hydroxy-9-oxoprosta-10,13-dien-1-oic acid (PGA(1)); (5Z,13E,15S)-15-hydroxy-9-oxoprosta-5,10,13-trien-1-oic acid (PGA(2)); (5Z,13E,15S,17Z)-15-hydroxy-9-oxoprosta-5,10,13,17-tetraen-1-oic acid (PGA(3)). A group of naturally occurring secondary prostaglandins derived from PGE; PGA(1) and PGA(2) as well as their 19-hydroxy derivatives are found in many organs and tissues.	PGA

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012333	RNA, Messenger	RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
