  2. Daflon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daflon

    Daflon plays a crucial role in the prevention of perivascular edema formation and treatment of venous stasis. This activity can be explained by its antagonist activity against prostaglandin E2 (PgE2) and thromboxane (TxA2) biosynthesis leading to inhibition of inflammatory process. Moreover, it also has a contraction activity on the lymphatic ...

  3. Thromboxane A2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thromboxane_A2

    Thromboxane A 2 (TXA 2) is generated from prostaglandin H 2 by thromboxane-A synthase in a metabolic reaction which generates approximately equal amounts of 12-hydroxyheptadecatrienoic acid (12-HHT). Aspirin irreversibly inhibits platelet cyclooxygenase 1 preventing the formation of prostaglandin H 2, and therefore TXA 2.

  4. Furegrelate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furegrelate

    Furegrelate, also known as 5-(3-pyridinylmethyl)benzofurancarboxylic acid, is a chemical compound with thromboxane enzyme inhibiting properties that was originally developed by Pharmacia Corporation as a drug to treat arrhythmias, ischaemic heart disorders, and thrombosis [1] but was discontinued.

  5. Thromboxane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thromboxane

    Thromboxane A2 Thromboxane B2. Thromboxane is a member of the family of lipids known as eicosanoids. The two major thromboxanes are thromboxane A2 and thromboxane B2. The distinguishing feature of thromboxanes is a 6-membered ether-containing ring. Thromboxane is named for its role in blood clot formation .

  6. Thromboxane-A synthase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thromboxane-A_synthase

    Dysregulation of TXA synthase and an imbalance in the prostacyclin-thromboxane ratio are thought to underlie many pathological conditions, such as pulmonary hypertension. [18] Because thromboxanes play a role in vasoconstriction and platelet aggregation, their dominance can disrupt vascular homeostasis and cause thrombotic vascular events.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/11-Dehydrothromboxane_B2

    11-Dehydrothromboxane B2 (or 11-dehydro-TXB2) is produced from the breakdown of thromboxane A2.It is released by activated platelets and urine levels of 11-dehydro-TXB2 can be used to monitor the response to aspirin therapy when used to prevent heart disease [1] and in diseases where platelet activation is prominent.
