COX-1/PGE2/EP4 alleviates mucosal injury by upregulating β-arr1-mediated Akt signaling in colitis
Abstract COX-1/PGE2 is an important protective mediator in ulcerative colitis (UC). β-arrestin1 (β-arr1), which acts as a scaffold protein, is involved in PGE2-mediated signaling pathways. However, the interaction between PGE2 and β-arr1 in maintaining mucosal barrier integrity remains unexplored. I...
