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.
Thromboxane A synthase 1 (EC 5.3.99.5, platelet, cytochrome P450, family 5, subfamily A), also known as TBXAS1, is a cytochrome P450 enzyme that, in humans, is ...
Thromboxane-A synthase, an enzyme found in platelets, converts the arachidonic acid derivative prostaglandin H 2 to thromboxane. People with asthma tend to have increased thromboxane production, and analogs of thromboxane act as bronchoconstrictors in patients with asthma.
[citation needed] A dose of 40 mg of aspirin a day is able to inhibit a large proportion of maximum thromboxane A 2 release provoked acutely, with the prostaglandin I2 synthesis being little affected; however, higher doses of aspirin are required to attain further inhibition. [15]
A decrease in Thromboxane-A synthase leads to an increase in prostaglandin E2 levels which may affect erythroid precursor cells by suppressing them which likely leads to refractory anemia. [ 15 ] There are still unanswered questions about the effect of a compromised TBXAS1 gene function and its effect in Ghosal hematodiaphyseal dysplasia.
Former Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) said he had “candid” conversations with President Trump when asked about reports that he and Trump got into “screaming matches” during ...
