Abstract
Anterior uveitis (AU) is one of the common extraskeletal manifestations of spondyloarthritis (SpA). The course of AU in patients with SpA is characterized by frequent relapses. The article considers the question of local and systemic use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the treatment and prevention of SpA-associated uveitis exacerbations.

Abstract
Prostanoids are arachidonic acid metabolites and are generally accepted to play pivotal functions in amongst others inflammation, platelet aggregation, and vasoconstriction/relaxation. Inhibition of their production with, for instance, aspirin has been used for over a century to combat a large variety of pathophysiological processes, with great clinical success. Hence, the cellular changes induced by prostanoids have been subject to an intensive research effort and especially prostanoid-dependent signal transduction has been extensively studied. In this review, we discuss the impact of the five basic prostanoids, TxA(2), PGF(2alpha), PGE(2), PGI(2), and PGD(2), via their receptors on cellular physiology. These inflammatory lipids may stimulate serpentine plasma membrane-localized receptors, which in turn affect major signaling pathways, such as the MAP kinase pathway and the protein kinase A pathway, finally resulting in altered cellular physiology. In addition, prostanoids may activate the PPARgamma members of the steroid/thyroid family of nuclear hormone receptors, which act as transcription factors and may thus directly influence gene transcription. Finally, evidence exists that prostanoids act as second messengers downstream of mitogen receptor activation, mediating events, such as cytoskeletal changes, maybe via direct interaction with GTPase activating proteins. The final cellular reaction to prostaglandin stimulation will most likely depend on combined effects of the above-mentioned levels of interaction between prostaglandins and their cellular receptors.

Abstract
PURPOSE Increased PGE2 production by the iris and ciliary body regulate intraocular pressure (IOP) in vivo. Various cholinergic and adrenergic compounds are traditionally used as antiglaucoma drugs, and their effect on IOP reduction is antagonised by cyclooxygenase inhibitors, indicating a role for eicosanoids in their hypotensive activity. One of the most potent antiglaucoma drugs, PG2 alpha (Latanoprost), reduces IOP by increasing uveoscleral outflow and also increases PGE2 production by the iris and ciliary body in vivo. We investigated whether cholinergic and adrenergic antiglaucoma drugs induce the production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in vitro by: 1) the iris-ciliary body (ICB) of rabbits and, 2) irises of glaucoma patients. METHODS Pilocarpine 2%, epinephrine 1% and echothiophate iodide 0.125% were applied topically to both eyes of Albino rabbits. Control groups were treated with the corresponding vehicles, or untreated completely. Human iris specimens were obtained from nine untreated cataract eyes, and five eyes under antiglaucoma medication undergoing surgery. PGE2 were determined by a radioimmunoassay. RESULTS PGE2 production by the ICB of treated rabbits in vitro was twice that of vehicle-treated or untreated rabbit eyes (p<0.001, for either group). In vitro PGE2 production by treated glaucoma patients' irises was three times higher (p<0.001) than in cataract control patients. CONCLUSIONS The study found an increase in in vitro production of PGE2 by the irises of eyes treated with cholinergic and adrenergic antiglaucoma medications. This suggests a role for endogenous PG production in the hypotensive effect of both classes of drug.

Abstract
The signal transduction pathways initiated by Ca(2+)-mobilizing agonists, such as prostaglandin F(2alpha)(PGF(2alpha)) and carbachol (CCh), leading to activation of cytosolic phospholipase A(2)(cPLA(2)) and arachidonic acid (AA) release in a wide variety of tissues remain obscure. To further define the role of protein kinases in receptor mediated stimulation of cPLA(2)and consequently AA release we have investigated the role of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases and protein kinase C (PKC) in PGF(2alpha)- and CCh-induced cPLA(2)phosphorylation and AA release in cat iris sphincter smooth muscle (CISM) cells. The cells were prelabeled with [(3)H]AA for 24 hr and incubated in the absence or presence of the agonist for 5-10 min as indicated. MAP kinases activities and cPLA(2)phosphorylation were determined in immunoprecipitates obtained by using anti-p38 MAP kinase and anti-cPLA(2)antibodies. We found that: (a) PGF(2alpha)and CCh increased p38 MAP kinase activity by 197 and 215%, respectively, and increased p42/p44 MAP kinase activity by 200 and 125%, respectively. (b) SB202190, a p38 MAP kinase specific inhibitor, inhibited PGF(2alpha)- and CCh-induced cPLA(2)phosphorylation by 92 and 85%, respectively, and AA release by 62 and 78%, respectively. (c) PD98059, a p42/p44 MAP kinase inhibitor, inhibited CCh-induced cPLA(2)phosphorylation by 70% and AA release by 71%, but had no effect on that of PGF(2alpha). (d) Inhibition of PKC activity by RO 31-8220 inhibited both PGF(2alpha)- and CCh-stimulation of p38 MAP kinase, p42/p44 MAP kinases and cPLA(2)phosphorylation. We conclude from these results that in CISM cells PGF(2alpha)-induced cPLA(2)phosphorylation and AA release is mediated through p38 MAP kinase, but not through p42/p44 MAP kinases, whereas that of CCh is mediated through both p38 MAP kinase and p42/p44 MAP kinases. These effects of PGF(2alpha)and CCh are regulated by the MAP kinases in a PKC-dependent manner. Studies aimed at elucidating the role of protein kinases in the coupling mechanism between the activation of PGF(2alpha)and muscarinic receptors, and the stimulation of cPLA(2)and AA release in the smooth muscles of the iris-ciliary body will provide important information about the role of protein kinases signaling pathways in smooth muscle function, as well as about the mechanism of the intraocular pressure-lowering effects of PGF(2alpha)and its analog, latanoprost, in glaucoma therapy.

Abstract
AIM To investigate whether the ocular hypotensive effect of alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH) is related to eicosanoids or cyclic AMP (cAMP). METHODS Intraocular pressure (IOP) readings were taken at a similar time on the day before and after a single dose of topical MSH. Changes in the levels of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and prostacyclin in incubated iris ciliary body (ICB) explants were measured by specific radioimmunoassay (RIA). Incubated ICB explants were exposed to MSH or adrenaline (epinephrine) for a week. In addition, cAMP levels in the medium were determined following short term incubation using RIA. RESULTS A significant dose related reduction in IOP was noted with topical MSH (mean (SD) maximal effect 4.5 (0.1) mm Hg (21%); p<0.001 v appropriate baseline) which persisted up to 6 hours (p=0.05). MSH treated ICB explants showed a 1.5-fold increase in PGE(2) and prostacyclin levels (p<0.001 for each parameter) while cAMP levels were increased twofold (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS A single application of MSH caused a sustained dose related ocular hypotensive effect with no side effects. An increase in eicosanoid and cAMP levels following ICB exposure to MSH indicated their involvement in MSH induced ocular hypotension. MSH and its analogues might have clinical relevance as antiglaucoma drugs with fewer side effects because of their antiallergic and anti-inflammatory properties.

Abstract
Prostaglandins (PGs) lower intraocular pressure by increasing uveoscleral outflow, presumably via a receptor-mediated mechanism coupled to a second messenger pathway in the ciliary muscle. In the present study, we examined the effect of prostanoids on cyclic AMP production in cultured human ciliary muscle cells. Cells were identified based on their expression of smooth muscle specific alpha-actin and monoclonal antibody against desmin. Cyclic AMP production in confluent cells incubated with buffer solution containing various concentrations of prostanoids was analyzed by radioimmunoassay. PGE2 caused a time-dependent increase in cyclic AMP concentrations which reached a maximum after 10 mins. With the exception of PGD2, all prostanoids produced a concentration-dependent increase in cyclic AMP levels with the following rank order of activity: PGE2 > 11-deoxy-PGE1 > 16,16-dimethyl PGE2 > sulprostone > PGF2alpha. PGE2-induced increase on cyclic AMP levels was unaffected by AH6809, an antagonist at both PGD2 (DP) and E2 (EP1) receptors. Flurbiprofen decreased basal cyclic AMP concentrations suggesting that intramurally-generated PGs stimulate the formation of the nucleotide in ciliary smooth muscle cells. PGE2-induced increases in cyclic AMP production was synergistic with those induced by the diterpene activator of adenylyl cyclase, forskolin. We conclude that prostanoids active at EP2-receptors can stimulate cyclic AMP production in cultured human ciliary muscle cells.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to examine the mechanism of the stimulatory effect of substance P (SP) on cyclic AMP (cAMP) accumulation in dog iris sphincter. We found that: (1) SP increased cAMP accumulation in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, the T1/2 and EC50 values being 1.2 min and 44 nM, respectively. SP has no effect on inositol trisphosphate and muscle contraction in this tissue. (2) SP-stimulated cAMP formation was inhibited by quinacrine, a non-specific phospholipase A2 inhibitor (IC50 = 9.5 microM), and by indomethacin (Indo), a cyclooxygenase inhibitor (IC50 = 3.5 nM), in a concentration-dependent manner, suggesting that SP induces cAMP accumulation via an Indo-sensitive pathway. (3) SP-induced arachidonic acid release and SP-induced prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) release were inhibited concentration dependently by quinacrine and Indo, with IC50 values of 11 microM and 0.8 nM, respectively. (4) PGE2 (1 microM) increased cAMP formation in the sphincter muscle by 94%, and, furthermore, the PG, but not SP, stimulated the activity of adenylyl cyclase in membrane fractions isolated from this tissue. (5) Indo (1 microM) blocked the relaxing effect of SP (1 microM) in iris sphincter precontracted with carbachol (1 microM). (6) The inhibitory effect of Indo on SP-induced cAMP accumulation was species specific. Increases in cAMP represent a mechanism by which extracellular SP can regulate smooth muscle function. Thus, we conclude from these studies that in dog iris sphincter SP-induced cAMP accumulation is mediated through PGs, and that in this cholinergically innervated muscle SP via cAMP could function, in part, to modulate the physiological responses to muscarinic receptor stimulation.

Abstract
The effects of oxotremorine-M (oxo-M), a muscarinic agonist, on cyclic AMP (cAMP) accumulation in slices of the rat peripheral lung were investigated. Oxo-M stimulated cAMP accumulation in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 value of 4.2 microM and a maximal effect of 2.4 +/- 0.39-fold over basal. In the presence of forskolin (25 microM), the maximal effect of oxo-M was increased to 14.1 +/- 4.0-fold over basal. Forskolin alone caused a 5.9 +/- 2.2-fold increase in cAMP relative to basal; therefore, the combination of both drugs was more than additive. The effects of oxo-M on cAMP accumulation were unaffected by tetrodotoxin, indicating that the action of oxo-M was not mediated by neuronal release of neurotransmitters. Oxo-M had a small inhibitory effect on cAMP in a homogenate preparation, indicating that the stimulatory response to oxo-M in slices of the lung is not due to direct stimulation of adenylyl cyclase. Characterization of the oxo-M potentiation of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation using different muscarinic antagonists yielded calculated pKB values that agreed with binding affinities for the M3 subtype. Oxo-M elicited phosphoinositide hydrolysis in the lung, and the nature of the antagonism of this response was also consistent with that expected for an M3-mediated response. cAMP accumulation in the presence of oxo-M (100 microM), forskolin (12 microM), or both drugs combined was inhibited by indomethacin (1 microM). These results demonstrate that the M3 receptor stimulates cAMP accumulation and phosphoinositide hydrolysis in the rat peripheral lung, and the mechanism for cAMP stimulation may involve arachidonic acid metabolites.

Abstract
The purpose of this work is to investigate the effect of prostaglandins (PGs) on the contraction of ciliary muscle cells. It has been proposed that PGs induce relaxation of ciliary muscle and facilitate uveoscleral outflow, and reduce intraocular pressure (IOP). The ocular response to PGs is complicated because the relative contributions of uveoscleral flow and the conventional outflow to lowering IOP and the type of PG receptors associated with ciliary muscle may vary depending on animal species. In order to obtain insights into prostaglandin receptors of ciliary muscle, ciliary muscle cells from porcine eye were grown in culture and characterized immunocytochemically with antibodies against smooth muscle-alpha-actin and PGE2 receptor subtypes. As in ciliary muscle tissues, positive immunostaining for alpha-actin and EP2 and EP3 subtypes was observed in cultured cells. Time-dependent contraction of cultured cells induced by 10(-4) M carbachol was recorded by taking sequential photographs and analyzed. Using this assay method, the effect of prostaglandins E2 and F2 alpha to inhibit the carbachol-induced contraction was studied. PGE2 showed potent inhibition of cell contraction; 10(-7) approximately 10(-8) M PGE2 inhibited 50% of full contraction in 15 min. PGF2 alpha at 10(-4) M neither caused cell contraction by itself nor blocked carbachol-induced contraction. The EP2 agonist 11-deoxy-16, 16-dimethyl PGE2 at 10(-4) M inhibited cell contraction but the EP3 agonist sulprostone had no effect. Dibutyryl cAMP at 3 x 10(-5) M inhibited contraction by 50%. In the presence of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), less than 10(-7) M dibutyryl cAMP caused 50% inhibition. In support of the cAMP effect, the addition of 10(-4) M PGE2 to cultured cells in the presence of indomethacin and IBMX was shown to cause an 80% increase in intracellular cAMP concentration compared with the basal (i.e. unstimulated) level of cAMP. Stimulation of cells with 10(-4) M PGF2 alpha caused no increase in cellular cAMP. These results indicate that PGE2 receptor EP2 subtype, but not PGF2 alpha receptor, is involved in the inhibition (hence relaxation by inference) of carbachol-induced porcine ciliary muscle cell contraction. It awaits further studies to determine whether cultured ciliary muscle cells of other species respond similarly to different PGs.
