Upregulation of Cyclooxygenase-2/Prostaglandin E (COX-2/PGE) Pathway Member Multiple Drug Resistance-Associated Protein 4 (MRP4) and Downregulation of Prostaglandin Transporter (PGT) and 15-Prostaglandin Dehydrogenase (15-PGDH) in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Elevated levels of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ) are indicators of a poor prognosis in breast cancer.
