Chlamydia pneumoniae decreases smooth muscle cell proliferation through induction of prostaglandin E2 synthesis.

Abstract

Chlamydia pneumoniae may modulate the proliferation of smooth muscle cells (SMC) in atherosclerotic plaques. Conditioned medium from C. pneumoniae-infected SMC decreased the proliferation of uninfected SMC. Treatment of infected cells with the cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor NS-398 [N-[2-(cyclohexyloxy)-4-nitrophenyl]-methanesulfonamide] suppressed the up-regulation of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and abolished the antimitogenic effect of conditioned medium, suggesting that C. pneumoniae can decrease SMC proliferation via stimulation of PGE(2) synthesis.
