Prostaglandins (PGs) and nitric oxide (NO) are essential to maintain homeostasis and defensa systems in human beings. However. overproduced PGs and NO by inducible cyclooxygenase (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), respectively. cause tissue damages. chronic inflammation. and carcinogenesis.
