Product Information
- Ethanone, 1-(2-methoxy-4-pyridinyl)-
1-(2-Methoxypyridin-4-yl)ethanone inhibits 5-lipoxygenase, the enzyme that converts arachidonic acid to leukotrienes. It is a non-selective inhibitor of cyclooxygenases (COXs) 1 and 2 which are responsible for the metabolism of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. COXs are inhibited by aspirin and other nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs inhibit both COXs and can be classified as selective or nonselective based on their selectivity for COX-1 vs. COX-2. Celecoxib is a selective inhibitor of COX-2.
COX enzymes can be classified into two groups based on the range over which they are active: μm range or nm range. The μm range includes COX-1, COX-3, and PTGS2 and these enzymes regulate the
