Cyclooxygenase-2 Deficiency Results in a Loss of the Anti-Proliferative Response to Transforming Growth Factor-β in Human Fibrotic Lung Fibroblasts and Promotes Bleomycin-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis in Mice

Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) inhibits fibroblast proliferation and collagen production. Its synthesis by fibroblasts is induced by profibrotic mediators including transforming growth factor (TGF)-β(1). However, in patients with pulmonary fibrosis, PGE(2) levels are decreased. In this study we examine...
