(S)-Flurbiprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory compound that functions as an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase, such as COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. It exerts its mechanism of action by binding to the active site of these enzymes, thereby preventing the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin H2. This inhibition leads to a decrease in the production of prostaglandins. (S)-Flurbiprofen′s function in experimental applications involves its ability to modulate the inflammatory process by targeting specific enzymes involved in prostaglandin synthesis, thereby influencing cellular signaling pathways related to inflammation.
