Prostanoids play an important role in a variety of physiological and pathophysiological processes including inflammation cancer. The rate-limiting step the prostanoid biosynthesis pathway is catalyzed by cyclooxygenases (COXs). Aberrant expression inducible isoform COX-2 plays significant colon cancer initiation progression. In this study, we have hypothesized that specific inhibitors such as Valdecoxib (VLX), being highly hydrophobic, may alter biophysical properties cellular lipids....
