In addition, IL-6 secreted by macrophages can up-regulate COX-2 expression and PGE2 secretion in lung cancer cells, and then COX-2 and PGE2 further promote lung cancer cell metastasis by inducing EMT through β-catenin transposition from the cytoplasm to nucleus (102), which indicates that the high expression of COX-2 in TAMs can also up-regulate the COX-2 in tumor cells through the secretion of IL-6 to promote the process of tumor metastasis. The gene discussed is IL6; the disease is lung cancer.
