The Role of PPARgamma in the Cyclooxygenase Pathway in Lung Cancer. [PDF]
Decreased expression of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) and high levels of the proinflammatory enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) have been observed in many tumor types.

Cyclooxygenase in biology and disease [PDF]
Cyclooxygenase (COX), the key enzyme required for the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins was first identified over 20 years ago. Drugs, like aspirin, that inhibit cyclooxygenase activity have been available to the public for about 100 years.

Expression of Cyclooxygenase-1 and Cyclooxygenase-2 in normal and pathological human oral mucosa
Cyclooxigenase (COX) is the rate-limiting enzyme for the conversion of arachidonic acid (AA) to prostaglandins(PGs). Two isoforms of COX have been identified: COX-1 is constitutively expressed in many cells and is involved in cellhomeostasis ...

It has been demonstrated that lysolecithin (lysophosphatidyl choline, LPC) produces experimental cholecystitis in cats mediated by arachidonic acid metabolites. LPC is a cytolytic agent that has been postulated as a contributing factor in the development

Detection of non-melanoma skin cancer by in vivo fluorescence imaging with fluorocoxib A. [PDF]
Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is the most common form of cancer in the US and its incidence is increasing. The current standard of care is visual inspection by physicians and/or dermatologists, followed by skin biopsy and pathologic confirmation.

Expression of cyclooxygenase‐1 and cyclooxygenase‐2 in bronchial epithelium and nonsmall cell lung carcinoma [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUNDCyclooxygenase (Cox) is the main target enzyme for the nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs that have been shown to suppress carcinogenesis in both experimental models and epidemiologic studies.METHODSTo evaluate its utility as an intermediate biomarker in bronchial chemoprevention trials, the authors examined Cox 1 and Cox 2 ...

Role of Cyclooxygenase Pathway and Risk Associated with Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs Therapy in Cardiovascular Diseases [PDF]
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) inhibit the cyclooxygenase enzyme activity through differentmechanisms and prevent inflammation. But they all have different risks associated with them.

Our conclusion that “poor clinical outcomes of aspirin-treated patients is due in part to incomplete cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) inhibition, but is also due in part to COX-1–independent platelet hyperreactivity” is based on the independent association of ...
