Construction of COX-2 short hairpin RNA expression vector and its inhibitory effect on hepatic fibrosis

The aim of this study was to construct recombinant adenovirus vector carrying a short hairpin RNA (shRNA) that can exclusively target cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) gene expression and observe its inhibitory effect on hepatic fibrosis. We designed and synthesized three oligonucleotide sequences, and clone...
