    Notes: Abstract We investigated the importance of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) release in interleukin-1 (IL-1)-induced inhibition of aggrecan synthesis by chondrocytes. Keratan sulfate (KS) production was measured in parallel with PGE2 release in chondrocytes. IL-1 inhibited KS production and stimulated PGE2 release. In the presence of PGE2, there was a dosedependent decrease in baseline KS production. Indomethacin and dexamethasone partially blocked the IL-1-induced PGE2 release while KS production recovered. Our results suggest that IL-1 inhibits KS production, in part, by stimulating the release of PGE2.
