1 Further studies revealed down-regulation of MDR-1 by celecoxib and a decline in p-Akt levels. Celecoxib ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
2 In conclusion, the present study indicates over-expression of COX-2 and MDR-1 in IR-K562 cells and celecoxib, a COX-2 specific inhibitor, induces apoptosis by inhibiting COX-2 and down-regulating MDR-1 expression through Akt/p-Akt signaling pathway. Celecoxib ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 1 Homo sapiens
