Involvement of COX-2, JAK2, STAT3, and MAPKs in the regulation of the expression of EP2 in EMF-stimulated N9 cells. N9 cells were pretreated with or without celecoxib (25 μM), AG490 (25 μM), S3I-201 (30 μM), SB203580 (10 μM), PD98059 (30 μM), SP600125 (5 μM), and AH6809 (10 μM) for 30 min and then exposed to 2.45-GHz EMF or sham exposed for 20 min. Relative mRNA (a) and protein (b) levels of EP2 in N9 cells pretreated with or without the mentioned pharmacologic compounds of interest 12 h after EMF exposure. *P < 0.05 vs the sham-exposed control group; # P < 0.05 vs the EMF-exposed group
