The impact of cyclooxygenase inhibitor use on urinary prostaglandin metabolites in preterm infants
2024, Pediatrics and NeonatologyProphylactic and early targeted treatment of patent ductus arteriosus
2018, Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal MedicineCitation Excerpt :Increasing oxygen tension causes ductal constriction and hypoxaemia relaxation [16]. This sensitivity to oxygen is greatest at term and diminishes within 24 h of birth [17]. In contrast, as the fetus approaches term, the duct becomes less sensitive to the dilating effects of prostaglandins [18–21] whereas the preterm infant demonstrates increased sensitivity even after initial constriction [22], and paradoxically, there is some evidence that oxygen metabolites may stimulate prostaglandin E2 production and ductus dilatation.
Comparative physiology of the ductus arteriosus among vertebrates
2018, Seminars in PerinatologyCitation Excerpt :PGE2 is a potent vasodilator of the mammalian ductus arteriosus. In preterm and term lambs and rabbits, PGE2 relaxes the ductus at concentrations as low as 10–11 to 10–10 M PGE2.29,30 There is an age dependency to PGE2 sensitivity in a number of mammalian species with the ductus becoming more sensitive closer to term.
In vitro oxygen exposure promotes maturation of the oxygen sensitive contraction in pre-term chicken ductus arteriosus
2015, Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology -Part A : Molecular and Integrative PhysiologyCitation Excerpt :The emu DA and the DA from less mature day 15 chicken embryos both relaxed in response to PGE2 (Dzialowski and Greyner, 2008; Ågren et al., 2009). The mammalian DA has a much stronger relaxation response to PGE2 when compared with the chicken DA (Clyman et al., 1978, 1980a, 1980b, 1999; Bouayad et al., 2001, 2002; Kajino et al., 2001; Waleh et al., 2004). These results suggest that regardless of O2 availability, the role of prostaglandins in maintaining ductal patency is less important in the chicken embryo than in the mammalian DA.
