Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is a rate-limiting enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis with a potential role in promoting colon carcinogenesis, but the mechanism of COX-2 overexpression remains unknown. In ...

BAE: Bovine aortic endothelial; RHP: Recombinant human protein. NSAIDs variably inhibit prostaglandin H synthase (COX). COX-2 was cloned in 1991, and it was subsequently established that COX-1 does ...

Gastrointestinal dysmotility commonly follows thermal injuries, such as burns. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of electroacupuncture (EA) on burn-induced gastric dysmotility ...

UPSTREAM, DOWNSTREAM: Biochemical activity upstream of cyclooxygenase is better understood than reactions downstream of the enzyme. Cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and stroke represent disparate ...

Ferroptosis plays an essential role in chronic liver diseases, and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) affects liver fibrosis through multiple mechanisms. However, research on COX-2 regulation of ferroptosis in ...
