COX

COX

The enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), also referred to as prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), is in charge of producing the vital biological mediators known as prostanoids, such as prostaglandins, prostacyclin, and thromboxane. Pain and inflammation symptoms can be reduced by pharmacologically inhibiting COX. The general public has had access to cyclooxygenase activity-inhibiting medications for about 100 years, including aspirin. The two cyclooxygenase isoforms, COX-1 and COX-2, have been identified. The COX-1 enzyme is frequently produced constitutively (i.e., in the gastric mucosa), whereas the COX-2 enzyme is induced (i.e., at sites of inflammation). Aspirin and ibuprofen are examples of NSAIDs that work by inhibiting COX to produce their desired effects. The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the primary COX inhibitors.
