Cyclooxygenase-2 induces neoplastic transformation by inhibiting p53-dependent oncogene-induced senescence

Abstract Much in vivo evidence indicates that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is deeply involved in tumorigenesis. Although it has been proposed that COX-2-derived pro-inflammatory prostanoids mediate the tumorigenic activity of COX-2, the tumorigenic mechanisms of COX-2 are not yet fully understood. Here,...
