Effects of enriched environment on COX-2, leptin and eicosanoids in a mouse model of breast cancer.

Effects of enriched environment on COX-2, leptin and eicosanoids in a mouse model of breast cancer.

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and adipokines have been implicated in breast cancer. This study investigated a possible link between COX-2 and adipokines in the development of mammary tumors. A model of environmental enrichment (EE), known to reduce tumor growth was used for a syngeneic murine model of ma...
