Prostaglandin production by intact isolated gastric parietal cells. 1980

M L Skoglund, and J G Gerber, and R C Murphy, and A S Nies

An enriched population of isolated gastric parietal cells was obtained from canine gastric mucosa. Parietal cells incubated with [14C]arachidonic acid produced radiolabelled PGF2 alpha, PGE2, PGD2 and 6-keto PGF1 alpha (acid hydrolysis product of PGI2). The prostaglandin synthesis was inhibited by indomethacin. Prostaglandin production, as measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry demonstrated that PGF2 alpha was produced in the highest quantity followed by PGE2 and 6-keto PGF 1 alpha. This demonstrates that isolated prietal cells are capable of producing prostaglandins. Since prostaglandins have a potent effect on gastric acid secretion, local prostaglandin synthesis could modulate parietal cell function.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007213 Indomethacin A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that inhibits CYCLOOXYGENASE, which is necessary for the formation of PROSTAGLANDINS and other AUTACOIDS. It also inhibits the motility of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES. Amuno,Indocid,Indocin,Indomet 140,Indometacin,Indomethacin Hydrochloride,Metindol,Osmosin
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
D004285 Dogs The domestic dog, Canis familiaris, comprising about 400 breeds, of the carnivore family CANIDAE. They are worldwide in distribution and live in association with people. (Walker's Mammals of the World, 5th ed, p1065) Canis familiaris,Dog
D005753 Gastric Mucosa Lining of the STOMACH, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. The surface cells produce MUCUS that protects the stomach from attack by digestive acid and enzymes. When the epithelium invaginates into the LAMINA PROPRIA at various region of the stomach (CARDIA; GASTRIC FUNDUS; and PYLORUS), different tubular gastric glands are formed. These glands consist of cells that secrete mucus, enzymes, HYDROCHLORIC ACID, or hormones.

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.
