Essential Roles of PKA, iNOS, CD95/CD95L, and Terminal Caspases in Suppression of Eosinopoiesis by PGE2 and Other cAMP-Elevating Agents by Bianca de Luca, Pedro Xavier-Elsas, Mônica Barradas, Ricardo A. Luz, Túlio Queto, Carla Jones, Maria Augusta Arruda, Thiago Mattar Cunha, Fernando Queiroz Cunha, Maria Ignez Gaspar-Elsas

“…In mice, eosinopoiesis is suppressed in vitro by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and in vivo by diethylcarbamazine, through a proapoptotic mechanism sequentially requiring inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and the ligand for death receptor CD95 (CD95L). We examined the roles of iNOS, cAMP-mediated signaling, caspases, and CD95L/CD95 in suppression of eosinopoiesis by PGE2 and other agents signaling through cAMP. …”
