Activation of thromboxane receptor α induces expression of cyclooxygenase-2 through multiple signaling pathways in A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cells

Abstract: Human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells stably transfected with TPα (A549-TPα) were used to study agonist I-BOP-induced expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and the related mechanisms of induced expression. I-BOP, a TP agonist, induced a time and dose dependent expression of COX-2 in A549-TPα cells as revealed by Western blot and by the synthesis of PGE 2 and TXB 2 which was totally inhibited by COX-2 inhibitors. The signaling pathways of I-BOP-induced COX-2 expression were elucidated by using various inhibitor… Show more

“…There are an increasing number of publications describing the potential role of TxA 2 and its related molecules in promoting progression of lung cancer (Ermert et al, 2003;Wei et al, 2007;Leung et al, 2009;Li and Tai, 2009). Unfortunately, the possible role of TxA 2 in smoking-associated lung cancer has received limited attention.…”

“…CREB is one such transcription factor (Sakamoto and Frank, 2009), and it is constitutively activated in both NSCLC and SCLC cells (Ma et al, 2007;Aggarwal et al, 2008). Additionally, CREB has been shown to be activated by NNK, TxA 2 or TxA 2 mimetic in lung cancer cells (Laag et al, 2006;Wei et al, 2007;Li and Tai, 2009). Therefore, CREB activation and its related proteins, PCNA and Bcl-2, were evaluated in this study.…”
