Intracellular prostaglandin E2 contributes to hypoxia-induced proximal tubular cell death

Abstract Proximal tubular cells (PTC) are particularly vulnerable to hypoxia-induced apoptosis, a relevant factor for kidney disease. We hypothesized here that PTC death under hypoxia is mediated by cyclo-oxygenase (COX-2)-dependent production of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which was confirmed in human...
