Understanding the tumour micro‐environment communication network from an NOS2/COX2 perspective
30 Aug 2018
Abstract excerpt
Recent findings suggest that co‐expression of NOS2 and COX2 is a strong prognostic indicator in triple‐negative breast cancer patients. These two key inflammation‐associated enzymes are responsible for the biosynthesis of NO and PGE2, respectively, and can exert their effect in both an autocrine and paracrine manner. Impairment of their physiological regulation leads to critical changes in both intra‐tumoural and...
