Published in 2021 at "ESC Heart Failure"

DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.13269

Abstract: Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is involved in the development of cardiac hypertrophy. However, whether PGE2 regulates the chronic kidney disease‐associated cardiac hypertrophy and the tentative mechanism remains to be elucidated. read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Glia"

DOI: 10.1002/glia.23276

Abstract: Brain inflammation is a critical factor involved in neurodegeneration. Recently, the prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) downstream members were suggested to modulate neuroinflammatory responses accompanying neurodegenerative diseases. In this study, we investigated the protective effects of prostaglandin… read more here.

DOI: 10.2174/1389450117666151209122826

Abstract: BACKGROUND Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), a subtype of stroke, brings high morbidity and mortality to human beings. Multiple studies indicated that neuroinflammation, excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, cytotoxicity resulted from the degradation products of blood clot play vital… read more here.
