COX
Cyclooxygenase
Cyclooxygenase (COX), officially known as prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), is an enzyme that is responsible for formation of important biological mediators called prostanoids, including prostaglandins, prostacyclin and thromboxane. Pharmacological inhibition of COX can provide relief from the symptoms of inflammation and pain. Drugs, like Aspirin, that inhibit cyclooxygenase activity have been available to the public for about 100 years. Two cyclooxygenase isoforms have been identified and are referred to as COX-1 and COX-2. Under many circumstances the COX-1 enzyme is produced constitutively (i.e., gastric mucosa) whereas COX-2 is inducible (i.e., sites of inflammation). Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), such as aspirin and ibuprofen, exert their effects through inhibition of COX. The main COX inhibitors are the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

8,11,14-Eicosatriynoic acid
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-131384CAS No.: 34262-64-1Synonyms: 8,11,14-Icosatriynoic acid8,11,14-Eicosatriynoic Acid, as an inhibitor of prostaglandin, leukotriene biosynthesis, and arachidonic acid-induced platelet aggregation, blocks human 12-lipoxygenase (12-LO), cyclooxygenase (COX)and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) with IC50 values of 0.46 μM, 14 μMand 25 μM, respectively. In addition, 8,11,14-Eicosatriynoic Acid inhibits the action of slow-reacting substances of allergic reactions, with IC50 value of 10 μM. Lipoxygenase is widely found in fungi, plants and animals. 12-LO involves in many important disease states and may play a role in oxidative glutamate toxicity. COX enzymes play complex roles in human physiology and pathology involving the neuronal, immune, renal, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and reproductive systems. COX enzymes are blocked by aspirin and a variety of other NSAIDs, which makes them clinically important. 5-LO involves in cancer pathology. It is expressed by a variety of cancer cells, including colon, lung, breast, and prostate cancers, and promotes cancer cell growth and neovascularization. 8,11,14-Eicosatriynoic acid is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.

COX-2/CA II-2
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-184938COX-2/CA II-2 is an orally active dual selective inhibitor targeting COX-2 and hCA II. COX-2/CA II-2 inhibits COX-2 with an IC50 value of 0.05 μM (SI = 12.02 vs COX-1) and hCA II with a Ki value of 62.6 nM (SI = 704.2 vs hCA I). COX-2/CA II-2 demonstrates significant analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects with rapid onset and sustained duration in animal models, shows improved gastric safety with reduced ulcerogenic liability, and exhibits a gradual intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effect without statistical significance relative to the sham-treated eye in rabbit glaucoma models. COX-2/CA II-2 can be used for anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antiglaucoma research.
