Cyclooxygenases (COXs) are key enzymes in the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostanoids, which are involved in cell proliferation and inflammation. Two distinct COXS have been identified: COX-l which is constitutively expressed and COX-2 which is induced by different products such as tumor promoters or growth factors.(omitted)
