    Abstract Introduction: Prostaglandin E
    Areas covered: The article briefly describes prostanoid history and metabolism with a strong focus on the vascular effects of prostanoids. Recent advances in mPGES-1 inhibitor development and results from pre-clinical and clinical studies are presented. Prostanoid shunting after mPGES-1 inhibition is highlighted and particularly discussed in the context of cardiovascular diseases.
    Expert opinion: The newest research demonstrates that inhibition of mPGES-1 is a potent anti-inflammatory treatment strategy and beneficial and safer regarding cardiovascular side effects compared to NSAIDs. Inhibitors of mPGES-1 hold great potential to advance to the clinic and there are ongoing phase-II trials in endometriosis.

    Abstract High-throughput drug screening enables the discovery of new anticancer drugs. Although monolayer cell cultures are commonly used for screening, their limited complexity and translational efficiency require alternative models. Three-dimensional cell cultures, such as multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS), mimic tumor architecture and offer promising opportunities for drug discovery. In this study, we developed a neuroblastoma MCTS model for high-content drug screening. We also aimed to decipher the mechanisms underlying synergistic drug combinations in this disease model. Several agents from different therapeutic categories and with different mechanisms of action were tested alone or in combination with selective inhibition of prostaglandin E

    Abstract Background and purpose: Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is a major consequence of myocardial infarction (MI). The microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1)/PGE
    Experimental approach: Mice were subjected to left anterior descending coronary artery ligation, followed by intraperitoneal treatment with the mPGES-1 inhibitor compound III (CIII) or 118, celecoxib (cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor) or vehicle, once daily for 28 days. Urinary prostanoid metabolites were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.
    Key results: Chronic administration of CIII improved cardiac function in mice after MI compared with vehicle or celecoxib. CIII did not affect thrombogenesis or blood pressure. In addition, CIII reduced infarct area, augmented scar thickness, decreased collagen I/III ratio, decreased the expression of fibrosis-related genes and increased capillary density in the ischaemic area. Shunting to urinary metabolites of PGI
    Conclusion and implications: Inhibition of mPGES-1 prevented chronic adverse cardiac remodelling via an augmented PGI

    Abstract Background: The microvasculature is a target organ for the early manifestations of cardiovascular disease. Therefore, a better understanding of the prostaglandin system and characterising the effects of mPGES-1 inhibition and concomitant reduction of PGE
    Experimental approach: The effects of mPGES-1 inhibition on constriction and relaxation of resistance arteries (diameter: 100-400 μm) from patients with end stage kidney disease (ESKD) and controls (Non-ESKD) were studied using wire-myography in combination with immunological and mass-spectrometry based analyses.
    Key results: Inhibition of mPGES-1 in arteries from ESKD patients and Non-ESKD controls significantly reduced adrenergic vasoconstriction, which was unaffected by the COX-2 inhibitors NS-398 and Etoricoxib, or by the COX-1/COX-2 inhibitor Indomethacin tested in Non-ESKD controls. However, a significant increase of acetylcholine-induced dilatation was observed for mPGES-1 inhibition. In IL-1β treated arteries, inhibition of mPGES-1 significantly reduced PGE
    Conclusion: Our study demonstrates vasodilating effects following mPGES-1 inhibition in human microvasculature and suggests that several pathways besides shunting to PGI

    Abstract The activation and differentiation of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) are involved in tumor progression. Here, we show that the tumor-promoting lipid mediator prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) plays a paradoxical role in CAF activation and tumor progression. Restricting PGE2 signaling via knockout of microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) in PyMT mice or of the prostanoid E receptor 3 (EP3) in CAFs stunted mammary carcinoma growth associated with strong CAF proliferation. CAF proliferation upon EP3 inhibition required p38 MAPK signaling. Mechanistically, TGFβ-activated kinase-like protein (TAK1L), which was identified as a negative regulator of p38 MAPK activation, was decreased following ablation of mPGES-1 or EP3. In contrast with its effects on primary tumor growth, disruption of PGE2 signaling in CAFs induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in cancer organoids and promoted metastasis in mice. Moreover, TAK1L expression in CAFs was associated with decreased CAF activation, reduced metastasis, and prolonged survival in human breast cancer. These data characterize a new pathway of regulating inflammatory CAF activation, which affects breast cancer progression.
    Significance: The inflammatory lipid prostaglandin E2 suppresses cancer-associated fibroblast expansion and activation to limit primary mammary tumor growth while promoting metastasis.
