“In contrast, a glucocorticoid such as dexamethasone reduced significantly [3H]arachidonic acid release and arachidonate metabolism induced in both cells.”

“Further analyses revealed that although Dex did not affect cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) expression, it markedly reduced the extent of arachidonic acid (AA) release mediated by peroxynitrite-dependent stimulation of cPLA(2).”
“ Dexamethasone inhibited mRNA and protein expression for mPGES and increased conversion of arachidonic acid to PGE2, but inhibition of mPGES was weaker compared with that of COX-2 in IL-1beta stimulated cells.”
“Pretreatment of cells with dexamethasone (50 nM) for 21 h increased the PGE2 output 6- to 7-fold in 2-h incubations only in the presence of arachidonic acid.”

“In the presence of arachidonic (10(-5) mol/L) or linoleic acids (10(-4) mol/L) in serum-free medium, the addition of dexamethasone (10(-8) mol/L) or cortisol (10(-7) mol/L) suppressed but did not inhibit completely prostacyclin production.”
