Induction of cyclooxygenase-2 causes an enhancement of writhing response in mice.
    European journal of pharmacology, 1998, Jul-03, Volume: 352, Issue:1

    Pretreatment of mice with lipopolysaccharide for 16 h enhanced the number of acetic acid-induced writhing reactions by 2 to 3-fold. In the peritoneal exudates at 10 min after acetic acid injection, 6-keto-prostaglandin F1alpha was detected as a major prostanoid, and this level increased by several-fold by the pretreatment with lipopolysaccharide. The writhing reaction and the prostaglandin formation were almost completely suppressed by indomethacin. However, the lipopolysaccharide-induced enhancement of writhing reaction and an increment of 6-keto-prostaglandin F1alpha level were diminished by the administration of cyclooxygenase-2-selective inhibitors, such as NS-398, nimesulide, or L-745337, to a level similar to the mice that did not receive lipopolysaccharide. Cyclooxygenase-2 protein in the exudates became detectable at 5-48 h after the lipopolysaccharide-pretreatment. These results suggest that the increased prostaglandin production by cyclooxygenase-2 could be responsible for enhancement of the acetic acid-induced writhing reaction by lipopolysaccharide pretreatment.
