Abstract
Ciklooksigenaza-2 (engl. Cyclooxygenase-2, COX-2) je enzim koji se pojavljuje u bolnim i upaljenim tkivima, dok je u zdravim tkivima uglavnom neaktivan. To je enzim koji katalizira nastanak prostanoida (prostaglandina, tromboksana i prostaciklina), spojeva koji povećavaju upalnu reakciju u organizmu. Kako bi se bol i upala umanjile koriste se različiti inhibitori ovog enzima. Među prvima su se razvili neselektivni inhibitori koji su osim COX-2 inhibirali i rad vrlo sličnog enzima, ciklooksigenaze-1 (engl. Cyclooxygenase-1, COX-1). Kasnija istraživanja su se usredotočila na pronalazak selektivnih inhibitora koji će inhibirati samo rad COX-2. Međutim, takvi su inhibitori pokazali velik broj neželjenih nuspojava. Novija istraživanja se usmjeravaju na pronalazak adekvatnih inhibitora prirodnog porijekla jer oni izazivaju značajno manji broj nuspojava. Također, neki od inhibitora COX-2 pokazali su značajna antikancerogena svojstva zbog čega se ispituju u kombinacijama s raznim kemoterapeuticima.
Abstract (english)
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an enzyme that occurs in painful and inflamed tissues, while it is mostly inactive in healthy tissues. It is an enzyme that catalyses the production of prostanoids (prostaglandins, thromboxanes and prostacyclins), compounds that increase the body's inflammatory response. Various inhibitors of this enzyme are used to reduce pain and inflammation. First developed inhibitors were non-selective inhibitors that, in addition to COX-2, inhibited the work of a very similar enzyme, cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1). Subsequent research has focused on finding selective inhibitors that will only inhibit COX--2 activity. However, such inhibitors have shown a large number of unwanted side effects. Recent research focus on finding adequate inhibitors of natural origin because they have significantly reduced side effects. Also, some of the COX-2 inhibitors have shown significant anticancer properties which is why they are being tested in combination with various chemotherapeutics.
