Evaluation of Expression of EGFR, HER-2 and COX-2 in Colorectal Cancer
Background and objective: EGFR and HER-2 are two members of ERbB/HER family of Type I Transmembrane growth factor receptors. Cox2 is an enzyme responsible for the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins, which has a major role in angiogenesis and can modelate tumor growth. The aim of this study was to determine the level of expression of EGFR, HER-2 and Cox2 in colorectd cancer. Mater...
متن کاملCOX-1 and COX-2 products in the gut: therapeutic impact of COX-2 inhibitors.
Despite the considerable range of newly identified disease modifying approaches to the control of the inflammatory process reported over the past 10–20 years, only a few have yet gained widespread clinical acceptance. In contrast, the very recent advent of the class of anti-inflammatory agents termed COX-2 selective inhibitors is already having a significant impact on current clinical prescribi...
متن کاملPulmonary and Cardiorenal Cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), -2 (COX-2), and Microsomal Prostaglandin E Synthase-1 (mPGES-1) and -2 (mPGES-2) Expression in a Hypertension Model
Hypertensive mice that express the human renin and angiotensinogen genes are used as a model for human hypertension because they develop hypertension secondary to increased renin-angiotensin system activity. Our study investigated the cellular localization and distribution of COX-1, COX-2, mPGES-1, and mPGES-2 in organ tissues from a mouse model of human hypertension. Male (n = 15) and female (...
متن کاملSelective inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 reverses inflammation and expression of COX-2 and interleukin 6 in rat adjuvant arthritis.
Prostaglandins formed by the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes are important mediators of inflammation in arthritis. The contribution of the inducible COX-2 enzyme to inflammation in rat adjuvant arthritis was evaluated by characterization of COX-2 expression in normal and arthritic paws and by pharmacological inhibition of COX-2 activity. The injection of adjuvant induced a marked edema of the hind...
متن کاملTime course of COX-1 and COX-2 expression during ischemia-reperfusion in rat skeletal muscle.
The aim of this study was to assess cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 expression in skeletal muscle after an ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to unilateral hindlimb ischemia for 2 h and then euthanized after 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 10, 24, and 72 h of reperfusion. The COX protein and mRNA were assessed in control and injured gastrocnemius muscle. Muscle damage was indir...
