Chronic inflammation is linked to the development of cancer in several organs, including the prostate. Up-regulated cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) may play a role in influencing cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, or angiogenesis. This study aimed to derive data from human prostate cancer to investigate whether chronic inflammation and angiogenesis were correlated with the expression of COX-2.
