Up‐regulation of cyclooxygenase‐2 mRNA in the rat spinal cord following peripheral inflammation
Open accessAbstract
Prostaglandins (PG) have been described as mediators in spinal nociceptive processing after peripheral inflammation. Enzymes essential for PG biosynthesis, cyclooxygenase isozymes COX‐1 and COX‐2, have not yet been investigated in the spinal cord. In two studies on rats with adjuvant‐induced peripheral inflammation levels of mRNA expression of both COX isoforms were analyzed in the lumbar section of the spinal cord using reverse transcription‐polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR) technique. We could show that mRNA of both COX isoforms is expressed constitutively in the spinal cord with COX‐2 as the predominant isoform. Six hours after induction of peripheral inflammation, levels of COX‐2 mRNA expression were raised significantly in respect to untreated control rats and returned to baseline within 3 days after induction of inflammation. COX‐2 might therefore be regarded as the COX isozyme responsible for spinal PG release in nociceptive processing under a peripheral inflammatory stimulus.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
