Cyclooxygenase‐deficient Mice: A Summary of Their Characteristics and Susceptibilities to Inflammation and Carcinogenesis
Abstract
ABSTRACT Cyclooxygenase (COX)‐1‐ and COX‐2‐deficient mice have unique physiological differences that have allowed investigation into the individual biological roles of the COX isoforms. In the following, the phenotypes of the two COX knockout mice are summarized, and recent studies to investigate the effects of COX deficiency on inflammatory responses and cancer susceptibility are discussed. The data suggest that both isoforms have important roles in the maintenance of physiological homeostasis and that such designations as housekeeping and/or response gene may not be entirely accurate. Furthermore, data from COX‐deficient mice indicate that both isoforms can contribute to the inflammatory response and that both isoforms have significant roles in carcino‐genesis.

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.
