Release of prostaglandins E and F in an algogenic reaction and its inhibition.

TLDR
An examination of cells collected by washing the peritoneum revealed a large decrease between 15 and 30 min after injection of the irritant, which suggested that the prostaglandins could be produced by neutrophil polynuclear cells but also by destruction of macrophages.

Pomegranate as a cosmeceutical source: pomegranate fractions promote proliferation and procollagen synthesis and inhibit matrix metalloproteinase-1 production in human skin cells.

TL;DR: Heuristic potential of pomegranate fractions for facilitating skin repair in a polar manner is suggested, namely aqueous extracts (especially of pembrokeshire peel) promoting regeneration of dermis, and pome Granatum seed oil promotes regeneration of epidermis.

Prostaglandins, aspirin-like drugs and analgesia.

TL;DR: Compared the pain producing activity of fatty acid hydroperoxides with that of high concentrations of acetylcholine, bradykinin, histamine and PGE1 on intradermal injection in man, the intensity of the pain induced was greater than that induced by the other agonists but for all except P GE1 the pain was transitory.

Macrophages synthesise and release prostaglandins in response to inflammatory stimuli

TL;DR: It is shown that macrophages whose phospholipid components were labelled with3H-arachidonic acid also synthesise and release 3H-prostaglandins (PGs) in response to inflammatory stimuli, consistent with the findings that human Macrophages on intrauterine devices and guinea pig macrophage responding to lymphokines release PGs.

Prostaglandin E production by human blood monocytes and mouse peritoneal macrophages.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that the blood monocyte and tissue macrophage represent an important source of prostaglandin E, a function shared by both normal and neoplastic mononuclear phagocytes.
