Return to overview

PGE2 is an incredibly bioactive compound, which upon binding with the receptors, an immune cellular response is triggered. For example in the binding of PGE2 to EP2 and EP4, dendritic cell (DC) migration and maturation is activated (Legler, Krause et al. 2006, van Helden, Krooshoop et al. 2006). This event results in the activation of Th2 cells, which produce cytokines that in turn stimulates further inflammatory species (McIlroy, Caron et al. 2006, Theiner, Gessner et al. 2006). Furthermore binding of PGE2 to EP4 stimulates infiltration of macrophages from the bloodstream.

PGE2 is synthesised from PGH2 via the prostaglandin E synthase (PGES) enzyme. This influential species is produced by almost all cutaneous cell types and as a consequence is in high concentrations in the skin (Ziboh 1992, Cho, Park et al. 2005, Gledhill, Rhodes et al. 2010). In addition to affecting DCs, the species acts as a chemoattractant for keratinocyte cells (Parekh, Sandulache et al. 2009) and in normal and inflamed epithelial cells PGE2 possess an inhibitory effect on the release of leukotrienes (Shaf96).
