BAP1 increases the amount of PTGES. 6 / 6

reach
"Gene and protein expression of both COX-2 and mPGES-1 are induced by BaP1 via activation of distinct subunits of the NF-κB transcription factor."

reach
"We found that the EP4 receptor positively regulates BaP1-triggered PGE release and expression of COX-2 and mPGES-1, which are critically involved in the biosynthesis of PGE induced by this metalloprotease."

reach
"Accordingly, our data show that BaP1 induced a marked increase in protein expression of both COX-2 and mPGES-1, the increase in COX-2 expression occurring before that of mPGES-1."

reach
"As shown in Fig. 5, pretreatment of cells with SN50 inhibited BaP1-induced COX-2 protein expression (Fig. 5C,D) and BaP1-induced mPGES-1 protein expression (Fig. 5G,H)."

reach
"Expression of COX-2 and mPGES-1 are induced by BaP1 via activation of NF-kappaB pathway."

reach
"Furthermore, our findings that BaP1 induced gene expression of COX-2 and mPGES-1 demonstrate that BaP1 can trigger transcriptional mechanisms in FLSs that result in increased protein expression."
