Abstract:
Prostamides are lipid mediators biosynthesised via COX-2 from anandamide (arahidonylethanolamide). The aim of this study was to determine the possible toxicity of prostamides after their peroxidation on RAW264.7 macrophage murine cell line. In the presence of 10μM H2O2 and the studied prostamides, in RAW 264.7 macrophage murine
line an oxidative stress occurred, demonstrated by the increase of malondialdehyde (MDA) and protein oxidation levels in a time dependent manner.
