Effects of celecoxib on the expression of PGE2 and VEGF A549 cell lines / 中国实用内科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of the selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor celecoxib on the expression of PGE2 and VEGF induced by IL-1? in A549 cell lines.Methods A549 cells were incubated with IL-1? in the presence or absence of celecoxib.After indicated incubation time,cells were harvested to detect VEGFmRNA by reverse transcription-polymerase chain rection(RT-PCR),the medium was collected to determine the concentration of PGE2 and VEGF by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results After Celecoxib intervention,the formation of PGE2 and VEGF expression decreased more than control group(IL-1? induced),the difference being significance(P
