FIGURE 2.
Clindamycin (CLDM) induces prostaglandin production from linoleic acid via arachidonic acid (AA). The metabolic pathway is centered on AA. The signal intensities of the metabolites were compared using the average value of each group. The vertical axis indicates the signal intensity. Enzymes used for the metabolism of each lipid are indicated in bold (n = 3). HpETE, Hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid; HETE, Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid; COX, Cyclooxygenase; LOX, Lipoxygenase; CYP450, Cytochrome P450. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 compared with control.
