Prostaglandin Synthetase Inhibitors I

  • Chapter
Book cover Anti-Inflammatory Drugs

Part of the book series: Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology ((HEP,volume 50 / 2))

Abstract

The prostaglandins (PGs) are a group of lipid-soluble C20-carboxylic acids containing an oxygenated five-membered ring and two parallel aliphatic side-chains. Chemically they are named as substituted prostenoic (1) or prostadienoic (2) acids.
