Abstract
Our results suggest that PGE2 induces biphasic regulation of COX-2 through renin-dependent PRR activation via EP1 and EP4 receptors. PRR-mediated increases in COX-2 expression may enhance PGE2 synthesis in CD cells serving as a buffer mechanism in conditions of activated renin-angiotensin system.
