Inhibition of COX-2, mPGES-1 and CYP4A by isoliquiritigenin blocks the angiogenic Akt signaling in glioma through ceRNA effect of miR-194-5p and lncRNA NEAT1.
The Effect of Biotinylated PAMAM G3 Dendrimers Conjugated with COX-2 Inhibitor (celecoxib) and PPARγ Agonist (Fmoc-L-Leucine) on Human Normal Fibroblasts, Immortalized Keratinocytes and Glioma Cells in Vitro.
Expression of p-Akt and COX-2 in gastric adenocarcinomas and adenovirus mediated Akt1 and COX-2 ShRNA suppresses SGC-7901 gastric adenocarcinoma and U251 glioma cell growth in vitro and in vivo.
A CD133(+)-enriched U87 glioma cell population, isolated from parental U87 cells with magnetic cell sorting technology, also grew as neurospheres and showed enhanced COX-2 expression.
Furthermore, our data show that pharmacological concentrations of celecoxib may interfere with the proapoptotic action of R(+)-MA and anandamide, suggesting that cotreatment with COX-2 inhibitors could diminish glioma regression induced by these compounds.
