Prostanoid receptors in GtoPdb v.2023.1

Prostanoid receptors (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Prostanoid Receptors [701]) are activated by the endogenous ligands prostaglandins PGD2, PGE1, PGE2 , PGF2α, PGH2, prostacyclin [PGI2] and thromboxane A2. Differences and similarities between human and rodent prostanoid receptor orthologues, and their specific roles in pathophysiologic conditions are reviewed in [452]. Measurement of the potency of PGI2 and thromboxane A2 is hampered by their instability in physiological salt solution; they are often replaced by cicaprost and U46619, respectively, in receptor characterization studies

Is There Any Interaction Between Sex and Renal Function Change During Hospital Stay in Patients Hospitalized With Acute Heart Failure?

Background: Renal dysfunction is a strong predictor of outcomes in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). However. less is known about how sex may influence the prognostic import of renal function in AHF. Methods and Results: In a post hoc analysis of the ASCEND-HF trial including 5377 patients with AHF (33% female), patients were categorized into 3 groups based on the changes in renal function during their hospital stay. Worsening. stable, and improving renal functions were defined as a >= 20% decrease, a = 20% increase in the estimated glomentlar filtration rate, respectively. The primary outcome was the composite of 30-day all-cause mortality or HF rehospitalization. The median baseline and discharge estimated glomerular filtration rate were 58.4 and 56.9 mL/min/l.73 m(2), respectively. Worsening, stable, and improving renal function was observed in 31.9%, 63.2, and 4.9% of patients. respectively. Worsening renal function was associated with adverse outcomes at 30 days (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.47, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.22-1.76). This association existed in both males and females (aHR 1.42 and aHR 1.56, respectively, both P < .01). There was an interaction between renal function changes and sex (P = .025), because improving renal function was associated with better outcomes in men(aHR 0.29, 95% CI 0.13 0.66) as compared with women (aHR 1.18, 95% CI 0.59 2.35). There was no interaction between the ejection fraction and renal function in association with subsequent outcomes. Conclusions: Irrespective of sex, worsening renal function was associated with poorer outcomes at 30 days in patients with AHF. More studies are warranted to further delineate the possible sex differences in this setting
