Gene Information

human ... PTGS2(5743)

General description

Prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), also known as cyclooxygenase, is the key enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis, and acts both as a dioxygenase and as a peroxidase. There are two isozymes of PTGS: a constitutive PTGS1 and an inducible PTGS2, which differ in their regulation of expression and tissue distribution. This gene encodes the inducible isozyme. It is regulated by specific stimulatory events, suggesting that it is responsible for the prostanoid biosynthesis involved in inflammation and mitogenesis. (provided by RefSeq)

Several studies have recently indicated the prognostic or predictive role of several biomarkers in colorectal cancer. We sought to investigate the prognostic value of prostaglandin synthase 2 (PTGS2), cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2), thymidylate synthetase (TYMS), thymidine phosphorylase (TYMP), dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPYD)

Glitazones have anti-inflammatory properties by interfering with the transcription of proinflammatory genes, such as cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, and with ROS production, which are increased in hypertension. This study analyzed whether pioglitazone modulates COX-2 expression in hypertension by interfering with ROS and

Microsomal prostaglandin E synthase 1 (mPGES-1) is the terminal regulator of PGE₂ synthesis. The expression of mPGES-1 is increased by stimulating inflammatory factors in various human cancers. However, whether hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection affects mPGES-1 and its molecular mechanism

Microparticles are produced by vesiculation of the cell plasma membrane and serve as vectors of cell-to-cell communication. Co-culture experiments have shown that hypoxia-inducible factor-α (HIF-α)-regulated-genes are up-regulated in human renal proximal tubular HK-2 cells by endothelial cell factors which might

All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) has been used for the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia. It remains unclear, however, whether ATRA affects cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2; an enzyme involved in prostaglandin production), PGE2, and thromboxane A2 (TXA2) (metabolic products of COX-2) by a
