Involvement of c-jun N-terminal kinase activation in 15-deoxy-delta12,14-prostaglandin J2-and prostaglandin A1-induced apoptosis in AGS gastric epithelial cells.

Abstract excerpt

Cyclopentenone prostaglandins (CyPGs), derivatives of arachidonic acid, have been suggested to exert growth-inhibitory activity through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-dependent and -independent mechanisms. Here we examined various eicosanoids for growth inhibition and found that the terminal derivative of prostaglandin (PG) J(2) metabolism, 15-deoxy-Delta(12,14)-PGJ(2) (15d-PGJ(2)), and PGA(1)...
