Where are COX 1 and 2 found? What do they do?
|
COX-1 and COX-2 are found in the blood vessels, kidneys and stomach.
Cox-1 will make your backgound/baseline prostaglandin and Cox-2 will help make more when stimulated to do so. So if we can inhibit cox-2 selectively we can mediate inflammation. |
|
What is nociception
|
the neural process of encoding noxious stimuli, mechanical, chemical, and thermal.
Processed along alpha-delta and C fibers up the posterior horn of the spinal cord. Crossovers in transmission can lead to somatic pain. |
