vascular smooth muscle cell | cells express both microsomal isoforms mPGES-1 and mPGES-2 and cytosolic isoform cPGES. Isoform mPGES-1 contributes most to total activity and is induced by interleukin IL-1beta, which in turn reduces the ability of cells to produce prostaglandin I2 | Homo sapiens | - |
