| Research Abstract |
We previously found that DIF, synthesized by Dictyostelium discoideum, inhibited the expression of microsomal PGES-1 (mPGES-1).In this study, we tried to identify a new inhibitor of mPGES-1 by natural products library screening and found that niclosamide was more effective than DIF-1. Subsequently, we examined the changes of the gene expression profile induced by DIF-1, DIF-3 and niclosamide using DNA microarray chips. There were several genes affected by all these three compounds, whereas none of them did not seem to be related with inflammation
