• openAccess   Defective Induction of COX-2 Expression by Psoriatic Fibroblasts Promotes Pro-inflammatory Activation of Macrophages 

      Arasa, Jorge; Terencio, M. Carmen; Andrés, Rosa M.; Marín Castejón, María Asunción; Valcuende-Cavero, Francisca; Payá, Miguel; Montesinos, M. Carmen Frontiers Media (2019-03-20)
      Fibroblasts play an important role as members of the innate immune system through the secretion of COX-2-derived inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). However, it has been described that dermal fibroblasts ...
