*Microsomal [[Prostaglandin E synthase]] (PGES) converts cyclooxygenase (COX)-derived prostaglandin to PGE2. It is membrane-associated and belongs to the microsomal glutathione S-transferase family. PGES is preferentially linked with the inducible COX-2<ref>PMID:12432931</ref> . PGES is induced by proinflammatory stimuli and down-regulated by anti-inflammatory '''glucocorticoids'''<ref>PMID:16336776</ref>.
