Identification of Cells Expressing Cyclooxygenase-2 in Response to Interleukin-1β in Rat Aortae
Localization of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in rat aortae was investigated. In endothelium-intact aortic strips stimulated with interleukin-1 β (IL-1 β ), COX-2 was detected in adventitial fibroblasts and macrophages but not in tunica media. IL-1 β−induced COX-2 expression was also detected in medial s...
