Although basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) had been shown to inhibit type I collagen gene expression in osteoblast, its inhibitory mechanism is unknown. In the present study, we investigated the underlying mechanisms by which growth factors downregulate type I collagen gene expression. Treatmen
## Abstract Overexpression of cyclooxygenaseβ2 (COXβ2) and elevation of its derivative prostaglandin E~2~ (PGE~2~) are implicated in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The expression of cβMyc, an oncogenic transcription factor, is also upregulated in this malignant disease. This study sought
