Squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most common cancers in humans and is also a frequently diagnosed neoplasm in dogs. Induction of cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2), a key rate-limiting enzyme in prostaglandin biosynthesis, has been implicated in the oncogenesis of various cancers in humans, including squamous cell carcinomas.
