Abstract
An increasing body of epidemiologic data suggests the prostaglandin-H synthase (PGHS) pathway to arachidonic acid metabolisrii to be involved in human colon carcinogenesis. In addition, PGHS inhibitors were shown to reduce the tumor incidence in rat models of colon carcinogenesis (1). In the initiation-promotion model of mouse skin carcinogenesis inhibitors of both the PGHS and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways were found to exhibit potent anti-promoting activities (2–5).
