General description

Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) catalyzes the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin H2 in the first step in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and prostacyclins. COX-2 inhibition by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents has been shown to decrease angiogenesis and tumor growth, and promote apoptosis. COX-2 overexpression has been associated with increased microvascular density.

Cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme-dependent arachidonic acid metabolites occupy key positions in important physiologic processes such as immunity, reproduction, and vascular integrity. Large retrospective and prospective population-based studies have shown that the use of both nonselective, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and selective COX-2

Several studies indicate that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs including indomethacin, aspirin, sulindac, and piroxicam reduce the risk of colon cancer. Furthermore, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that inhibit the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme were shown to inhibit the development of colon cancer in animal

Prostaglandins play a critical role in tumor development and growth by regulating numerous biologic processes, including tumor angiogenesis, with clear prognostic and therapeutic implications. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic relevance of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) pathway activation
