General description

COX-2 (Cyclooxygenase-2) is an inducible enzyme. It is involved in the response of cells to growth factors, tumor promoters, and cytokines that induce its expression. Given its role in synthesizing prostaglandins, COX-2 is therefore of interest in studying immune response regulation. COX-2 is induced by a wide variety of stimuli and was initially identified as immediate-early growth response gene. In addition, COX-2 expression markedly increased in 85-90% of human colorectal adenocarcinoma whereas COX-1 levels remain unchanged.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide corresponding to C-terminus of rat COX-2.

Cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) has been shown to promote cancer initiation and progression through pleiotropic functions including induction of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) via its predominant product prostaglandin E2 that binds to the cognate receptor EP2. Hence, pharmacological inhibition at the level of
