prostanoid signaling pathway |
Definitions |
Prostanoids are eicosanoids derived from omega-3 or omega-6 fatty acids and represented by several families. One such source is the arachidonic acid metabolism via the cyclooxygenase mediated route. Several categories of prostanoids can be generated and signaling via several receptor types elicits a range of physiological responses. Historically, they are viewed as mediators of inflammation. |
