medicine both hematopoietic- and lipocalin-type prostaglandin-D synthase are present in cartilage from healthy donors as well as from patients with osteoarthritits. Level of lipocalin-type prostaglandin-D synthase is more than 20fold higher than hematopoietic-type enzyme. Levels of lipocalin-type prostaglandin-D synthase mRNA and protein are increased in cartilage from aptients with osteoarthritis. Treatment of chondrocytes with IL-1beta upregulates lipocalin-type prostaglandin-D synthase mRNA and protein expressions as well as prostaglandin D2 production in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The upregulation of lipocalin-type prostaglandin-D synthase by IL-1beta is blocked by the translational inhibitor cycloheximide. Specific inhibitors of the MAPK p38 and c-jun N-terminal kinase and of the NF-kappaB and Notch signalling pathways suppress IL-1beta-induced upregulation of lipocalin-type prostaglandin-D synthase expression. An inhibitor of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase ERK/MAPK demonstrates no significant influence. Prostaglandin D2 prevents IL-1beta-induced upregulation of lipocalin-type prostaglandin-D synthase expression Homo sapiens
