Novel link between prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and cholinergic signaling in lung cancer: The role of c-Jun in PGE(2)-induced α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor expression and tumor cell proliferation

BACKGROUND: Cyclooxygenase-2-derived prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) stimulates tumor cell growth and progression. α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) is a major mediator of cholinergic signaling in tumor cells. In the present study, we investigated the mechanisms by which PGE(2) increases non-s...
