Biochem/physiol Actions

Expression of 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) and its main product, 13(S)-HODE, are decreased in human colorectal and esophageal cancers. Certain non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can induce apoptosis in human colon cancer cells by increased expression of 15-LOX-1, which down-regulates PPAR-delta through 13-HODE.
PPARγ agonist
