Differential Sensitivity and Mechanism of Inhibition of COX-2 Oxygenation of Arachidonic Acid and 2-Arachidonoylglycerol by Ibuprofen and Mefenamic Acid

[Image: see text] Ibuprofen and mefenamic acid are weak, competitive inhibitors of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) oxygenation of arachidonic acid (AA) but potent, noncompetitive inhibitors of 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) oxygenation.
