Table I.

Impact of NSAIDs on COX-2 Conversion of DHA

NSAID Percentage of
inhibition of
13-HDHA
Percentage of increase of
17-HDHA
% %
ASA 85.7 ± 5.6 97.8 ± 2.0
Indomethacin 89.8 ± 0.5 0.0
Acetaminophen 87.7 ± 4.3 0.0
NS398 (COX-2 inhibitor) 97.3 ± 1.0 0.0

Results are the mean ± SEM, n = 3. Products were extracted, identified, and quantitated using deuterium internal standards and LC-MS-MS (Materials and Methods). NSAIDs were incubated 30 min with human recombinant COX-2 (Materials and Methods). 2 mM ASA, 200 mM indomethacin, 500 mM acetaminophen, and 100 mM NS398 were used.
