1 TNF-alpha modulates hepatic Na+-K+ ATPase activity via PGE2 and EP2 receptors. Dinoprostone tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens
2 This effect disappeared in presence of indomethacin, an inhibitor of COX enzymes, and PGE2 injected to the animals imitated the effect of TNF-alpha. Dinoprostone tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens
3 It was concluded that TNF-alpha induces in hepatocytes, PGE2 production which in turn reduces the activity and protein expression of the Na(+)-K(+) ATPase by activating EP2 receptors. Dinoprostone tumor necrosis factor Homo sapiens
