Hypoxia Induces Cyclooxygenase-2 via the NF-κB p65 Transcription Factor in Human Vascular Endothelial Cells

The inducible cyclooxygenase, COX-2, has been associated with vascular inflammation and cellular proliferation. We have discovered that hypoxia increases expression of the COX-2 gene in human vascular endothelial cells in culture independent of other stimuli. Western analysis of human umbilical vein...
