There was a recent study that showed "aspirin" affected the growth of
one type of colorectal cancer; that which overexpresses COX-2.  If this
holds up, get ready to start doing a lot of COX-2 IHC.

Does anyone have a good mAb to COX-2 that works on formalin-fixed,
paraffin-embedded tissue that they would recommend?  Thank you.
