lipoxygenase |
In enzyme|lang=en terms the difference between cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase
is that
cyclooxygenase is (enzyme) any of several enzymes that catalyze the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandins; their inhibition is the mode of action of aspirin and ibuprofen while
lipoxygenase is (enzyme) any of a class of enzymes that catalyse the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
As nouns the difference between cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase

cyclooxygenase is (enzyme) any of several enzymes that catalyze the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandins; their inhibition is the mode of action of aspirin and ibuprofen while

epoxygenase |
As nouns the difference between cyclooxygenase and epoxygenase
is that
cyclooxygenase is (enzyme) any of several enzymes that catalyze the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandins; their inhibition is the mode of action of aspirin and ibuprofen while
epoxygenase is (biochemistry) an enzyme that produces hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (hetes) and epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (eets) from arachidonic acid, causing effects such as cell proliferation and decrease in cyclooxygenase activity.

isoprostane |
As nouns the difference between cyclooxygenase and isoprostane
is that
cyclooxygenase is (enzyme) any of several enzymes that catalyze the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandins; their inhibition is the mode of action of aspirin and ibuprofen while
isoprostane is (biochemistry) any of various prostaglandin-like compounds formed in vivo from the free radical-catalyzed peroxidation of essential fatty acids (primarily arachidonic acid) without the direct action of cyclooxygenase enzyme.
