The work reported herein describes the synthesis of a new series of anti-inflammatory pyrazolyl thiazolones. In addition to COX-2/15-LOX inhibition, these hybrids exerted their anti-inflammatory actions through novel mechanisms. The most active compounds

Background Thromboxane A2 is derived from arachidonic acid through the action of cyclooxygenases and thromboxane synthase. It is mainly formed in blood platelets upon activation and plays an important role in aggregation. Aspirin is effective in reducing

RAW264.7 cells lack prostaglandin-dependent autoregulation of tumor necrosis factor-α secretion
Studies of the response of RAW264.7 cells (RAW) to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were carried out to determine why these cells do not demonstrate the prostaglandin (PG)-dependent autocrine regulation of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) secretion observed in ...

Involvement of peripheral cyclooxygenase-1 and cyclooxygenase-2 in inflammatory pain
Abstract Pain-induced functional impairment in the rat (PIFIR) is a model of inflammatory and arthritic pain similar to that of clinical gout. Nociception is induced by the intra-articular injection of uric acid into the right hind limb, inducing its dysfunction. Animals then receive analgesic drugs and the recovery of functionality over

Pharmacological analysis of cyclooxygenase-1 in inflammation [PDF]
The enzymes cyclooxygenase-1 and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-1 and COX-2) catalyze the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin (PG) H 2 , the precursor of PGs and thromboxane. These lipid mediators play important roles in inflammation and pain and in normal physiological functions.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

Cyclooxygenases and lipoxygenases are proinflammatory enzymes; the former affects platelet aggregation, vasoconstriction, vasodilatation and later the development of atherosclerosis.
