IDENTIFICATION OF NOVEL CYTOTOXIC PROSTAGLANDIN METABOLITES PRODUCED IN ARACHIDONOYL ETHANOLAMIDE-TREATED TUMOREGENIC KERATINOCYTES
Thati, Drisheka (East Carolina University, 2012)Arachidonoyl ethanolamide (AEA) induces apoptosis in mouse tumorigenic keratinocytes (JWF-2 cells). Our previous data show that AEA is metabolized by COX-2 to pro-apoptotic J-series prostaglandins. COX-2 is an enzyme that ...
