Examination of thromboxane synthase as a prognostic factor and therapeutic target in non-small cell lung cancer

BACKGROUND: Thromboxane synthase (TXS) metabolises prostaglandin H2 into thromboxanes, which are biologically active on cancer cells. TXS over-expression has been reported in a range of cancers, and associated with a poor prognosis. TXS inhibition induces cell death in-vitro, providing a rationale f...
