Collection: Cyclooxygenase (COX) Inhibitors

Cyclooxygenase (COX) Inhibitors — encompasses structurally diverse compounds, ranging from salicylic acid and fenamic acid derivatives to cyclic sulfonamides, which are known to interact with the cyclooxygenase enzyme in the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway. This group serves as reference compounds for research on COX enzyme inhibition mechanisms in in vitro studies.

Cyclooxygenase (COX) Inhibitors are used as in vitro test materials to study the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway and to evaluate inhibition selectivity against the COX-1 and COX-2 isoforms in cell or isolated enzyme experimental models. Pharmacology and biochemistry researchers use reference compounds such as curcumin or fenamic acid derivatives to compare enzymatic inhibition profiles in screening studies or in developing new assay methods.

Example products in this collection: TCI C2302 458-37-7 Curcumin (Synthetic), TCI B5971 120638-55-3 Bromfenac Sodium Sesquihydrate, TCI A0317 89-57-6 5-Aminosalicylic Acid, TCI B6838 218600-53-4 Bardoxolone Methyl, TCI Z0021 74711-43-6 Zaltoprofen, TCI C0434 458-37-7 Curcumin (Natural), TCI V0133 181695-72-7 Valdecoxib, TCI C2064 13710-19-5 Tolfenamic Acid.

Selection considers the compound form (free acid, sodium salt, or hydrate form), the source (synthetic or natural for curcumin), and the purity relevant to the consistency of in vitro test results. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
