| 1 | beta-Adrenoceptors, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in tumor tissues were also increased by nicotine. | Nicotine | prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | Activation of beta-adrenoceptors and the subsequent stimulation of COX-2, PGE(2), and VEGF expression is perhaps an important mechanism in the tumorigenic action of nicotine on colon tumor growth. | Nicotine | prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 | Homo sapiens |
