Analysis of Gene Expression in Human Dermal Fibroblasts Treated with Senescence-Modulating COX Inhibitors [PDF]
We have previously reported that NS-398, a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)–selective inhibitor, inhibited replicative cellular senescence in human dermal fibroblasts and skin aging in hairless mice. In contrast, celecoxib, another COX-2–selective inhibitor, and

Cyclooxygenase-2/prostaglandin E2 pathway orchestrates the replication of infectious bronchitis virus in chicken tracheal explants. [PDF]
In this study, we investigated the localized pathogenesis of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) in chicken tracheal organ cultures (TOCs), focusing on the role of inducible cyclooxygenase (COX-2).

Cyclooxygenase-2 Expression in Bladder Cancer and Patient Prognosis: Results from a Large Clinical Cohort and Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Aberrant overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2) is observed in urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (UCB). Studies evaluating COX2 as a prognostic marker in UCB report contradictory results.

Evaluation of cyclooxygenase 2- gene expression in benign and malignant ascites [PDF]
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the mRNA expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) in ascites caused by various diseases. Moreover, it was attempted to investigate its usefulness in the differential diagnosis between malignant and benign ascites.

Delayed treatment with nimesulide reduces measures of oxidative stress following global ischemic brain injury in gerbils [PDF]
Metabolism of arachidonic acid by cyclooxygenase is one of the primary sources of reactive oxygen species in the ischemic brain. Neuronal overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 has recently been shown to contribute to neurodegeneration following ischemic ...
