Meclofenamic acid

Meclofenamic acid. Species, exposure and limitations are retained in each linked claim.

1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

Where it participates (unsigned role)

  1. The production of 15-HETE by aspirin-modified cyclooxygenase-2 was sensitive to inhibition by most non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs including selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors and the inhibition by indomethacin was time-dependent, but two potent structurally related drugs, diclofenac and meclofenamic acid, did not inhibit either the acetylated enzyme or the S516M mutant, so Ser516 plays an important role in the interaction with fenamate inhibitors.
