Abstract:
In this study, we use primary embryonic fibroblasts derived from cyclooxygenase-deficient transgenic embryos to further investigate the role of the two cyclooxygenases, cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), in the process of neoplastic transformation. Cells with either, neither, or both of the cyclooxygenases were transformed by Ha-ras and/or SV40. Our results show that when a cyclooxygenase enzyme is present, the transformed cells have marked increases in COX-2 and/or COX-1 expression. Nevertheless, each type of cell, deficient in either or both cyclooxygenases, can be readil

Cyclooxygenase is known to be the ratelimiting enzyme in the production of prostaglandins. So far, in different bird species there have been found two isoforms of cyclooxygenases (COX), cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2). These isoforms along with prostaglandins are regarded to possess a determining influence on the success in female reproduction. Only in a few bird species the expression sites of cyclooxygenases have been investigated. In this study we report on the expression of COX-1 and COX-2 in the ovary of the quail (Coturnix japonica) using PCR, immunohistochemistry a

Prostaglandins are synthesized by the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), which is the target for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Recently a second form of COX was discovered (COX-2) that is induced by inflammatory stimuli. The identification of an inducible form of COX led to the hypothesis that COX-2 is responsible for inflammatory prostaglandins, whereas the constitutive COX-I produces physiologically important prostaglandins, e.g., in stomach and kidney. Selective COX- 2 inhibitors have been shown to be anti-inflammatory but do not cause ulcers in the stomach or intestines. It is a

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used in the treatment of arthritis and pain. However, their long-term use is limited by gastrointestinal (GI) side effects such as gastric ulcers. NSAIDs act by inhibiting an enzyme called cyclooxygenase. Cyclooxygenase (COX) catalyses the generation of prostaglandins from arachidonic acid. Two isoforms of the enzyme exist – COX-1 and COX-2 – both of which are targets for NSAIDs. Although they are associated with GI toxicity, NSAIDs have important antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory effects. The GI injury has been attributed to COX-1 in

Abstract:
Cyclooxygenase-3 (COX-3), a new acetaminophen-sensitive isoform of the COX family, has recently been cloned from canine tissues. Canine COX-3 apparently is identical to the full-length form of COX-1, with the exception that the COX-3 mRNA retains intron 1. Additionally, COX-3 mRNA expression is high in the brain. We investigated the expression of the putative rat COX-3 mRNA in primary cultures of neurons, astrocytes, endothelial cells, pericytes, and choroidal epithelial cells from the rat brain. Specific RT-PCR primers were designed to detect putative rat COX-3 mRNA, and the RT-PCR products w

Abstract Cyclooxygenase (COX)-derived prostaglandins are critical in female reproduction. Gene targeting studies show that ovulation, fertilization, implantation, and decidualization are defective in COX-2 deficient mice. We used genetic and pharmacologic approaches to perturb COX function and examine the differential and synergistic effects of inhibition of COX-1, COX-2, or of both isoforms on reproductive outcomes during early pregnancy in mice. The results demonstrate that simultaneous inhibition of COX-1 and COX-2 produces more severe effects on early pregnancy events than inhibition of ei

Thus we investigated healing and regulation of COX and NOS isoforms during ulcer healing in COX-1 and COX-2 deficiency and inhibition mouse models.

Accumulation of COX-2, but not COX-1, mRNA increased when cells were challenged with TNF (1 nM) or PMA (1 μM).

45 Background: In murine cancer models, the two IFN-γ inducible chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10, those bind to the common receptor CXCR3, recruit NK cells and tumor-suppressive lymphocytes into the tumor site and impair tumor growth and metastatic spread. In human breast cancer (BC), we and others have shown that high levels of CXCL9 mRNA correlate with favorable prognosis and the number of infiltrating lymphocytes. Raising the intratumoral level of CXCR3 ligands might therefore be a feasible way to enhance the infiltration by tumor-suppressive immune cells and to improve immune intervention in br

Squamous-cell carcinoma (SCC) is the second most common tumor in horses, and 40%-50% may occur in ocular and adnexal structures. Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 is an inducible enzyme responsible for the production of prostaglandins that control cell growth and the development and progression of cancer. Mechanisms responsible for the initial upregulation of COX-2 in neoplasia are unclear; prolonged sunlight exposure and mutations in the p53 gene may be possibilities. Because the etiopathogenesis of ocular SCC in horses may involve ultraviolet sunlight and p53 mutations, the purpose of this study was to

Arachidonic acid (ARA) is metabolized by cyclooxygenase (COX) and cytochrome P450 to produce proangiogenic metabolites. Specifically, epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) produced from the P450 pathway are angiogenic, inducing cancer tumor growth. A previous study showed that inhibiting soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) increased EET concentration and mildly promoted tumor growth. However, inhibiting both sEH and COX led to a dramatic decrease in tumor growth, suggesting that the contribution of EETs to angiogenesis and subsequent tumor growth may be attributed to downstream metabolites formed by CO
