Curcumin regulates prostaglandin (PG) synthesis in a variety of cells. PGE2 and PGI2 are generated from arachidonic acid (AA) by cyclooxygenases 1 and 2 (COX-1 and COX-2) and the synthase (PGES and PGI2S) pathways. This study evaluates the in vitro effect of curcumin on the expression of COX-1, COX-2, PGI2S and microsomal PGES-1 (mPGES-1), and the production of PGE2 and PGI2 in human coronary artery...
