Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - NS 398, COX-2 inhibitor (AB120295)

ab32034 staining p27 KIP1 in MCF7 cells treated with NS 398 (ab120295), by ICC/IF. Increase in p27 KIP1 expression correlates with increased concentration of NS 398, as described in literature.
The cells were incubated at 37°C for 6h in media containing different concentrations of ab120295 (NS 398) in DMSO, fixed with 4% formaldehyde for 10 minutes at room temperature and blocked with PBS containing 10% goat serum, 0.3 M glycine, 1% BSA and 0.1% tween for 2h at room temperature. Staining of the treated cells with ab32034 (1/100 dilution) was performed overnight at 4°C in PBS containing 1% BSA and 0.1% tween. A DyLight 488 goat anti-rabbit polyclonal antibody (ab96899) at 1/250 dilution was used as the secondary antibody.

Supplementary information

Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) and Cyclooxygenase 1 (COX1) are enzymes that convert arachidonic acid into prostaglandins which are involved in inflammation and other physiological functions. COX2 also known as prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 has a molecular mass of approximately 72 kDa. COX1 sometimes called prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 1 has similar molecular weight. These enzymes are expressed in various tissues with COX1 found ubiquitously and COX2 expressed more selectively often induced by inflammatory stimuli.
Biological function summary

COX2 and COX1 help regulate processes like inflammation pain and fever through their role in prostaglandin synthesis. COX1 primarily maintains normal cellular processes while COX2 is highly inducible and becomes active during inflammatory responses. COX2 does not typically form complexes operating independently in the cellular environment to mediate inflammatory signals.

Pathways

COX2 and COX1 are key components in the prostaglandin biosynthetic pathway influencing pain and inflammatory pathways. Their activity affects the cyclooxygenase pathway important for converting arachidonic acid into prostaglandins and thromboxanes. COX enzymes interact closely with other proteins like prostaglandin synthases and thromboxane synthase which further modify their products into different prostaglandins and thromboxanes.

COX2 links to conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and colorectal cancer. Its increased expression often correlates with the inflammatory response seen in these illnesses. Inhibiting COX2 with drugs like lumiracoxib alleviates symptoms in inflammatory diseases. COX1 while less implicated in disease connects to interactions with other proteins indicating changes during digestive issues due to its role in gastric mucosa maintenance.
