Inhibition of acid secretion in isolated canine parietal cells by prostaglandins. 1982

M L Skoglund, and A S Nies, and J G Gerber

Isolated canine parietal cells were used to evaluate inhibition of acid secretion by both endogenously synthesized and exogenously added prostaglandins (PGs). Uptake of [14C]aminopyrine by the parietal cells was used as an index of acid secretion. The effect of increasing endogenous PG synthesis was determined by incubating arachidonic acid with histamine-stimulated parietal cells. Arachidonic acid (10(-6) and 10(-5) M) was a potent inhibitor of histamine-stimulated acid secretion. This effect of arachidonic acid was totally abolished when the cells were pretreated with 100 microM indomethacin. The effect of exogenous, preformed PGs on histamine-stimulated acid secretion was evaluated by adding PGE2, PGI2, PGF2 alpha or PGD2 to parietal cells. PGE2 was the most potent inhibitor of acid secretion, with a 50% inhibition of maximal acid secretion (ID50) at 7.5 X 10(-8) M. PGI2 and PGF2 alpha also inhibited acid secretion, but at higher concentrations. The ID50 for PGI2 and PGF2 alpha was 10(-5) M. PGD2 was inactive at inhibiting acid secretion. We conclude that both endogenous and exogenous PGs inhibit acid secretion directly at the parietal cells and that PGE2 is most likely the PG produced locally to modulate parietal cell acid secretion.

D011453	Prostaglandins	A group of compounds derived from unsaturated 20-carbon fatty acids, primarily arachidonic acid, via the cyclooxygenase pathway. They are extremely potent mediators of a diverse group of physiological processes.	Prostaglandin,Prostanoid,Prostanoids
D011457	Prostaglandins D	Physiologically active prostaglandins found in many tissues and organs. They show pressor activity, are mediators of inflammation, and have potential antithrombotic effects.	PGD
D011458	Prostaglandins E	(11 alpha,13E,15S)-11,15-Dihydroxy-9-oxoprost-13-en-1-oic acid (PGE(1)); (5Z,11 alpha,13E,15S)-11,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprosta-5,13-dien-1-oic acid (PGE(2)); and (5Z,11 alpha,13E,15S,17Z)-11,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprosta-5,13,17-trien-1-oic acid (PGE(3)). Three of the six naturally occurring prostaglandins. They are considered primary in that no one is derived from another in living organisms. Originally isolated from sheep seminal fluid and vesicles, they are found in many organs and tissues and play a major role in mediating various physiological activities.	PGE
D011460	Prostaglandins F	(9 alpha,11 alpha,13E,15S)-9,11,15-Trihydroxyprost-13-en-1-oic acid (PGF(1 alpha)); (5Z,9 alpha,11,alpha,13E,15S)-9,11,15-trihydroxyprosta-5,13-dien-1-oic acid (PGF(2 alpha)); (5Z,9 alpha,11 alpha,13E,15S,17Z)-9,11,15-trihydroxyprosta-5,13,17-trien-1-oic acid (PGF(3 alpha)). A family of prostaglandins that includes three of the six naturally occurring prostaglandins. All naturally occurring PGF have an alpha configuration at the 9-carbon position. They stimulate uterine and bronchial smooth muscle and are often used as oxytocics.	PGF
D011464	Epoprostenol	A prostaglandin that is a powerful vasodilator and inhibits platelet aggregation. It is biosynthesized enzymatically from PROSTAGLANDIN ENDOPEROXIDES in human vascular tissue. The sodium salt has been also used to treat primary pulmonary hypertension (HYPERTENSION, PULMONARY).
