Reducing prostaglandin E(2) production to raise cancer immunogenicity

Cyclooxygenases (COX), commonly upregulated in numerous cancers, generate prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), which has been implicated in key aspects of malignant growth including proliferation, invasion and angiogenesis. Recently, we showed that production of PGE(2) by cancer cells dominantly enables pro...

description Cyclooxygenases (COX), commonly upregulated in numerous cancers, generate prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), which has been implicated in key aspects of malignant growth including proliferation, invasion and angiogenesis. Recently, we showed that production of PGE(2) by cancer cells dominantly enables progressive tumor growth via immune escape and that cyclooxygenase inhibitors synergize with immunotherapy to enhance tumor eradication.
