COX Inhibitor Pack
Cayman Chemical Item Number 10186
Cyclooxygenase-PAK
Description
The Cayman COX Inhibitor Pack contains a combination of frequently used cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors. Each kit contains aspirin, the archetype nonselective, irreversible COX inhibitor.1 A series of COX-2 selective inhibitors are available in the COX-PAK, including NS-398, one of the first reported and most widely used.2 Another COX-2-selective inhibitor included is CAY10404, with nearly 500,000-fold COX-2 selectivity.3 The potent COX-1-selective inhibitor SC-560 is an example of a reversible, diaryl heterocycle COX-1 inhibitor with low nM activity.4 Also included is valeroyl salicylate, an irreversible alkylator of COX enzymes with some selectivity toward COX-1.5 Resveratrol is also included in the COX-PAK due to its complex activities, which include COX inhibition, peroxidase inhibition, antioxidant activity, and gene regulation.6,7
