Inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 upregulates the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 signaling pathway to mitigate hepatocyte ferroptosis in chronic liver injury

Ferroptosis plays an essential role in chronic liver diseases, and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) affects liver fibrosis through multiple mechanisms. However, research on COX-2 regulation of ferroptosis in ...

Defining the COX Inhibitor Selectivity of NSAIDs: Implications for Understanding Toxicity

Aspirin was introduced into clinical medicine in 1899 and its anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic properties were accompanied by the onset of gastrointestinal and renal toxicity. Over the ...
