ABSTRACT Prostaglandins (PGs) have been implicated as possible modulators of the immune response and various inflammatory processes1–4. Various cell components of the immune system are
sources of PGs, and mitogen or antigen stimulation of human or murine lymphocytes leads to their enhanced release5–8. They are also released from various human and animal tumours9,10. Thus,
as cells of the immune system are both sensitive to and sources of PGs, these factors may be important as physiological immune regulators. For example, PGs of the E series are capable of
inhibiting many effector functions9–15. They have also been shown to inhibit the development of the humoral response16,17. Although they inhibit the proliferative response to mitogens18,19,
little is known about their effects on the development of the cell-mediated immune response to antigens. The data summarized here implicate PGs, thromboxane A2 (TXA2) and prostacyclin (PGI2)
in the regulation of cellular immune responses at the inductive phase. Some of these data have been reported in abstract form20. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a
