Summary |
PTGES2 is responsible for nearly half of the increment in NO production by alveolar macrophages in response to LPS stimulation. The enhancing effect of PTGES2 on NO production is mediated through the ligation of PTGER2 and acting via PKA to induce cAMP production. In addition PTGES2 induces expression of cytokines IL10 and IL6, while inhibiting TNFA. (Demonstrated in rat models)

Summary |
The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane-associated prostaglandin E synthase, which catalyzes the conversion of prostaglandin H2 to prostaglandin E2. This protein also has been shown to activate the transcription regulated by a gamma-interferon-activated transcription element (GATE). Multiple transcript variants have been found for this gene.
