1 Celecoxib acts in a cyclooxygenase-2-independent manner and in synergy with emodin to suppress rat cholangiocarcinoma growth in vitro through a mechanism involving enhanced Akt inactivation and increased activation of caspases-9 and -3. Celecoxib prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 Rattus norvegicus
2 Celecoxib, a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, markedly decreased prostaglandin (PG) levels overproduced by these respective neoplastically transformed liver cell types but was without effect in inhibiting PG production by untransformed WB-F344 cells that do not express detectable cyclooxygenase-2 protein. Celecoxib prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 Rattus norvegicus
3 Celecoxib, a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, markedly decreased prostaglandin (PG) levels overproduced by these respective neoplastically transformed liver cell types but was without effect in inhibiting PG production by untransformed WB-F344 cells that do not express detectable cyclooxygenase-2 protein.
