Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to assess the prognostic significance and clinical correlations of cyclooxgenase-2 expression (COX) in a cohort of patients treated with radiation (RT) for post-mastectomy chest wall relapse (PMCWR). Between 1975 and 1999, 113 patients were treated for isolated PMCWR. All patients were treated with biopsy and/or excision of the CWR followed by RT. Median follow-up was 10 years. All clinical data including demographics, pathology, staging, receptor status, HER-2/neu status, and adjuvant therapy were entered into a computerized database. Paraffin-embedded CWR specim

Mehrere Studien haben gezeigt, daß die Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) eine bedeutende Rolle sowohl bei Entstehung als auch Progression maligner Tumoren spielt. COX-2-Inhibitoren werden bereits in klinischen Studien zur Krebstherapie getestet. COX-2 ist die induzierbare Isoform der Cyclooxygenase - dem Schlüsselenzym der Synthese von Prostaglandinen und anderen Eicosanoiden. Im Tier- und Zellkulturmodell konnten COX-Hemmer anti-Tumor-Effekte hervorrufen. Es ist jedoch unklar, ob diese Effekte durch Hemmung des COX-Enzyms oder durch COX-unabhängige Mechanismen vermittelt werden. Wir untersuchten

Abstract:
In comparison to other cancers, advanced prostate cancer is resistant to chemotherapy. There is a need to understand the mechanisms which are responsible for this resistance and find better treatments for this disease or methods to increase the efficacy of current treatments. Cancer cells often evade apoptosis. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an enzyme reported to be elevated in prostate cancer, and has oncogenic properties, including apoptosis attenuation. Because of this, COX-2 inhibition could be beneficial for both prevention and treatment of cancer. This study showed that COX-2 protein was no

Abstract:
Wernicke's encephalopathy is a neuropsychiatric disorder resulting from thiamine deficiency (TD) and is characterized by neuronal loss, astrocytic proliferation and microglial activation. Cyclooxygenases (COX) are enzymes which catalyze the first step in the synthesis of prostanoids. COX-1 is expressed constitutively and COX-2 is the inducible isoform. Groups of TD rats and pair-fed controls were killed at presymptomatic and symptomatic stages of encephalopathy. Cresyl violet and NeuN staining showed decreased numbers of neuronal cells in vulnerable regions (medial thalamus and inferior collic

[Truncated abstract] Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the major malignancy complicating chronic liver disease. New therapies for the prevention of HCC are required due to the limited success and high tumour recurrence rates of existing treatments. Emerging evidence suggests that HCC arise from the transformation of adult liver progenitor cells (LPCs), which have the capacity to differentiate into hepatocytes and biliary cells during liver regeneration. LPC activation precedes neoplasia in experimental hepatocarcinogenesis. LPCs share antigenic epitopes with HCCs, including α-fetoprotein (AFP)

Abstract:
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a chronic inflammatory disease with no available pharmacological treatment. AAA formation reduces the structural integrity of the vessel and increases the susceptibility to rupture. The inflammatory response within human aneurysmal tissue is characterized by increased expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Similarly, in a mouse model of the disease induced by chronic Angiotensin II (AngII) infusion, we have shown that COX-2 expression in the abdominal aortic smooth muscle layer increases early in the development of the disease.

Abstract Bone remodelling occurs in humans throughout life, therefore bone is continuously renewed to better respond to changes in weightbearing circumstances. Bone remodelling is extremely vulnerable during fracture healing and integration of prostheses into the surrounding bone. Bone remodelling is a complex system in which many growth factors, cytokines and enzymes, which are essential for the differentiation of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, are involved. Some widely used drugs can affect this sensitive system of remodellation in unexpected manner. Painkillers such as cyclooxygenase (COX) in

Hence, I have been part of two different projects, one studying multitarget compounds with balanced COXIB and TP receptor antagonist properties, and the other evaluating the potential role of a leukotriene (LT) antagonist drug such as montelukast in improving the CV outcome. In reference to the first project, new multitarget compounds were synthesized at the University of Turin, by substituting the carboxylic function of Lumiracoxib.

Celecoxib is a COX-2 selective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug which has been shown to inhibit growth and induce apoptosis in various cancer cell lines. Using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay and an apoptosis detection kit, we demonstrated that celecoxib was able to induce growth inhibition and apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner in 3 NPC cell lines: HK-1, Hone-1, and C666-1. Afterwards, a proteomic approach was used to study the underlying mechanisms involved in celecoxib-mediated effects on two COX-2 positive NPC cell lines (HK-1 and C666-1). Results s
