Signal transduction pathways (MAPKs, NF-κB, and C/EBP) regulating COX-2 expression in nasal fibroblasts from asthma patients with aspirin intolerance.

Signal transduction pathways (MAPKs, NF-κB, and C/EBP) regulating COX-2 expression in nasal fibroblasts from asthma patients with aspirin intolerance.

BACKGROUND: Recent studies have revealed that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression is down-regulated in aspirin-induced asthma (AIA). Various signal pathways (MAPKs, NF-κB and C/EBP) are involved in COX-2 regulation. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the regulation of COX-2 expression through MAP-kinase path...
