Differential expression of COX-2 in LS versus US myometrial cells Expression of COX-2 expression is significantly higher in the lower segment versus the upper segment in non-treated cells (A). Treatment with IL-1β significantly increases COX-2 expression in both upper segment (B) and lower segment (C) cells. Panel (D) shows for comparison the relative levels of COX-2 expression in all four groups. Relative expression of COX-2 normalized to B2M. Data represent the mean ± SEM of US (black) and LS (grey) cells, analyzed by student t test through all passages (***P<0.0001)
