Figure 2From: Cyclooxygenases and prostaglandin E2 receptors in growth plate chondrocytes in vitro and in situ – prostaglandin E2dependent proliferation of growth plate chondrocytesCyclooxygenase (COX) expression in cultured rat growth plate chondrocytes and in the growth plate. Expression of mRNA for COX-1 and COX-2 was analysed by reverse transcription RT-PCR. β-actin was used as positive control. Both growth plate tissue and cultured chondrocytes express mRNA for COX-1 and COX-2. bp, base-pairs.Back to article page
