Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2; Item No. 14010) is the major PG synthesized at sites of inflammation and plays an important role in different inflammatory diseases. It acts as a mediator of pain and inflammation and promotes bone destruction. The increased synthesis of PGE2 during inflammation can be accounted for by increased expression of both COX-2 and microsomal PGE synthase-1 (mPGES-1). CAY10700 is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of mPGES-1 (IC50 = 0.24 µM in an in vitro human whole blood assay).1 It is inactive against COX-1 and COX-2 (9% inhibition at 100 µM and 16% at 30 µM, respectively).1
