PROSTAGLANDINSand glucocorticoids are potent mediators of inflammation. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) exert their effects by inhibition of prostaglandin production. The pharmacological target of NSAIDs is cyclooxygenase (COX, also known as PGH synthase), which catalyses the first committed step in arachidonic-acid metabolism1,2. Two isoforms of the membrane protein COX are known3: COX-1, which is constitu-tively expressed in most tissues, is responsible for the physiological… CONTINUE READING
