abstract：:Cyclo-oxygenase (COX) exists as two isoforms. In endothelial cells, the induction of COX (COX-2) elicited by endotoxin or inflammatory cytokines is mediated by tyrosine kinase. Here we have investigated whether the induction of COX-2 elicited by IL-1beta in human pulmonary epithelial cells (A549) is mediated by tyrosi...
