Prostaglandin synthetase activity from human rheumatoid synovial tissue and its inhibition by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
Abstract
1. Prostaglandin synthetase activity was found in a microsomal fraction from human rheumatoid synovia. 2. The microsomes produced PGE2 and a small amount of PGF2 when incubated with arachidonic acid. 3. The pH optimum of the enzyme from this source was similar to that found with microsomal preparations from rabbit renal medullae and bovine seminal vesicles. 4. The enzyme was inhibited in vitro by the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs flurbiprofen, indomethacin and aspirin in the same rank order of potency as prostaglandin synthetase from other tissues.
