Inhibitor Comments
Piroxicam inhibits both cyclooxygenase isozymes [16], with maximum inhibition of PGE2 synthesis of approximately 60% for COX-2 and 35% for COX-1.
Fenoprofen is a non-selective COX inhibitor.
Immunopharmacology Comments
The cyclooxygenase enzymes are included in GtoImmuPdb as they are involved in the production of inflammatory mediators, and are long-standing anti-inflammatory drug targets.
