  14. Smooth muscle • Vascular: • vasocontrictors • TXA2  mitogen • PGF2 • Vasodilators • PGI2 • PGE2 • Gastrointestinal tract • Longitudinal muscle: PGE2, PGF2 • Circular muscle: PGF2, PGI2, relaxed by PGE2 • Airways: • Relaxed: PGD2, PGE1, PGE2, PGI2 • Contracted:PGF2, TXA2 Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  15. Platelets and Blood Cells • Aggregation: • Inhibtion:PGE1, PGI2 • Aggregator: TXA2 Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  16. Kidney • Major one: PGE2, PGI2 • GFR  (vasodilator effect) • Some effects of loop diuretics • TXA2: renal vasoconstrictor may play a role in renal function? ( inflammatory renal disease) Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  17. Reproductive Organs • Female reproductive organ • Male reproductive organ • Fertility? PGE, PGF • Penile erection: PGE: alprostadil Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  18. Central and Peripheral nervous system • Fever • Sleep • Neurotransmission • Inhibition of Norepinephrine release postganglionic sympathetic nerves Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  19. Neuroendocrine organs • PGE: • GH, prolactin, TSH,ACTH, FSH, LH  • LTC4, LTD4: • LHRH, LH Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  20. Bone metabolism • Increasing bone turnover • PGE2 ? Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  21. EYE • PGE, PGF • Increasing outflow of aqueous humor Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  22. Effect of Lipoxygenase & Cytochrome P450 derived Metabolites • Blood Cell and Inflammation • Chemoattractant: • Neutrophils: LTB4, lipoxin A • Eosinophils: LTC4, LTD4 • Heart and Smooth Muscle • Cardiovascular • Smooth Muscle Chemoattractant: 12(S)-HETE • Gastrointestinal: LTB4 • Airways:LTC4, LTD4 • Increased vascular permeability, mucus secretion • Renal system • Speculative? • Product of free radical attack: 8-epi-PGF2 Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  23. Inhibition of Eicosanoid synthesis • Corticosteroids • By producing annexins, lipocortins • Inhibiting phospholipase A2 • NSAIDs • Inhibition of COX activity • May increase the lipoxygenase activity? Ardabil University of Medical Sciences

  24. Clinical pharmacology of Eicosanoids Stable oral or long acting parenteral analogs Enzyme inhibitors and receptor antagonists Dual Cox and Lipoxygenase inhibitors Decreasing preexisting side effects Dietary manipulation Change the polyunsaturated fatty acid Ardabil University of Medical Sciences
