Does microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 enhance bone cancer growth and bone cancer-related pain behaviors in mice?
The present results suggest that mPGES-1 plays a crucial role in the enhancement of bone cancer growth and bone cancer pain, and that inhibition of mPGES-1 may have clinical utility in the management of bone cancer pain.
: At low concentrations, endogenous glucocorticoids exert immunostimulatory actions on macrophages. The underlying mechanisms may be correlated to ER stress via the glucocorticoid receptor, in which XBP1 plays an important role.
