Ku80 cooperates with CBP to promote COX-2 expression and tumor growth. [PDF]
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) plays an important role in lung cancer development and progression. Using streptavidin-agarose pulldown and proteomics assay, we identified and validated Ku80, a dimer of Ku participating in the repair of broken DNA double ...

Systematic study of constitutive cyclo-oxygenase-2 expression: role of NFκB and NFAT transcriptional pathways [PDF]
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an inducible enzyme that drives inflammation and is the therapeutic target for widely used nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

The role of selective cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors in medical practice has become controversial since evidence emerged that their use is associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction. Selective COX-2 inhibitors were seen as successor to non-selective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, in turn successors to aspirin.

Selective COX-2 inhibitors and risk of myocardial infarction [PDF]
Selective inhibitors of cyclooxygenase- 2 ( COX- 2, ` coxibs') are highly effective anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs that exert their action by preventing the formation of prostanoids.

Nimesulide Induced Histopathological Changes in the Vas Deferens of Mice [PDF]
Aim: Nimesulide, a preferential COX-2 inhibitor has 20 times more selectivity towards COX-2 than that of COX-1. COX-2 selective inhibitors cause frequent nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity following their usage.

Kaempferol Improves Breast Cancer-Related Depression through the COX-2/PGE2 Pathway
Background: Breast cancer-related depression (BCRD) is strongly associated with BC and increases recurrence and mortality. This study investigated the role of kaempferol in the pathogenesis of BCRD and its underlying mechanism.

The relationship between angiogenesis and cyclooxygenase-2 expression in prostate cancer [PDF]
<b>OBJECTIVE</b>: To test the hypothesis that angiogenesis in prostate cancer is associated with tumour invasion and metastasis, and that this is mediated through increased cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression.
