Prostaglandin E2 (PGE) is a lipid mediator derived from the fatty acid arachidonic acid. As an essential inflammatory factor, PGE has a critical impact on immune regulation through the prostanoid E (EP) receptor pathway. T cells, including CD4 and CD8 T cell subsets, play crucial roles in the adaptive immune response. Previous studies have shown that PGE is involved in regulating CD4 T cell differentiation and inflammatory cytokine production via the EP receptor pathway, thereby affecting the development of diseases mediated by CD4 T cells. In this review, we summarize the signaling pathway of PGE and describe the relationship between PGE and T cell differentiation. Hence, this review may provide important evidence for immune therapies and may even promote the development of biomedicines.
前列腺素 E2(PGE)是一种源自脂肪酸花生四烯酸的脂类介质。作为一种重要的炎症因子,PGE 通过前列腺素 E(EP)受体途径对免疫调节具有关键影响。T 细胞,包括 CD4 和 CD8 T 细胞亚群,在适应性免疫反应中发挥着至关重要的作用。先前的研究表明,PGE 通过 EP 受体途径参与调节 CD4 T 细胞分化和炎症细胞因子的产生,从而影响由 CD4 T 细胞介导的疾病的发展。在这篇综述中,我们总结了 PGE 的信号通路,并描述了 PGE 与 T 细胞分化之间的关系。因此,这篇综述可能为免疫治疗提供重要依据,甚至可能促进生物医学的发展。
