Return to overview

Cyclooxygenase, COX, also known as prostaglandin endoperoxide H (PGH) synthase, has a broad substrate specificity and is reported to metabolise AA and other fatty acids into prostanoids such as PGs, TXs and prostacyclin [1][2]. The preferred substrate is AA for both isoforms of COX, COX-1 and COX-2. The COX-1 isoform is constitutively expressed, whereas COX-2 expression is typically negligible in normal cells [3] but can be induced in response to inflammatory stimuli, hormones, calcium and growth factors[4][5][6][7][8][9] [10]. Interestingly, basal expression of COX-2 has been found to occur in the kidney, central nervous system, female reproductive organs and stomach [11][12], and frequent expression of COX-2 can be found in the tumorigenic nests of most cancers [13][14].

Both isoforms of COX catalyse a two-step reaction of cycloooxygenation and oxygenation, followed by a hydroperoxide reduction. The cyclooxygenase reaction occurs in the hydrophobic channel within the core of the protein and generates an unstable peroxide intermediate, PGG2. The subsequent peroxidase reaction produces PGH2 and occurs at the heme-containing active site near the protein surface. The two step reaction results in the insertion of molecular oxygen across the C-9 and C-11 double bonds. Both isoforms of COX are heme-containing glycoproteins, that are membrane-bound to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and function as homodimers [15][16][17][18]. Interestingly, in certain tissues COX-1 has been found to colocalises preferentially, but not exclusively, with TXAS, PGFS and cPGES, whereas COX-2 has been found to colocalise with PGIS and mPGES in certain tissues [19][20][21][22][23].

Kmp (Dependent parameter)

This is a “Dependent parameter”, meaning that the log-normal distribution for this parameter was calculated using multivariate distributions (discussed in Protocol for defining informative priors for ensemble modelling in systems biology). As a result, no confidence interval factor or literature values were cited for this parameter.

The abundance of COX-2 (ppm) was converted to COX-2 (mM). As a result, the concentration of COX-2 in unstimulated tissue was estimated as 2.27 x10-5 mM. The upregulation of COX-2 in HaCaT keratinocytes was estimated using western blotting in (Kiezel-Tsugunova, 2017), figure * shows an example. Using this information, in silico experiments which included an upregulation of COX-2, included the concentration of COX-2 reaching 100 times higher concentration than the estimated unstimulated concentration. Therefore, the COX-2 induction event includes the concentration of COX-2 eventually reaching a concentration of 2.27 x10-3 mM after 6h post irradiation.
