We investigated in this study the role of beta-catenin in the IL-1beta regulation of COX-2 expression in articular chondrocytes ... IL-1beta increased expression of COX-2 and induced accumulation and nuclear translocation of transcriptionally competent beta-catenin Kaler et al., Oncogene 2009
:
Constitutive activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription ( STAT ) 1 in THP1 macrophages was essential for the induction of IL-1beta and thus for the activation of beta-catenin signaling in tumor cells
