    Product Description

    Tepoxalin is a dual inhibitor of COX and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO; IC50s = 2.84 and 0.15 µM, respectively, in RBL-1 cell lysates).1 It also inhibits the activity of 12-, but not 15-, LO (IC50s = 4.45 and 146.6 µM for the human platelet and rabbit reticulocyte enzymes, respectively). Tepoxalin reduces the production of thromboxane B2 (TXB2; Item No. 19030) and leukotriene B4 (LTB4; Item No. 20110) induced by the calcium ionophore A23187 (Item Nos. 11016 | 22030) in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs; IC50s = 0.01 and 0.07 µM, respectively) and decreases epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation in human platelet-rich plasma (PRP; IC50 = 0.045 µM). It inhibits paw swelling in a rat model of adjuvant-induced arthritis with an ED50 value of 3.5 mg/kg.
