Willow bark extract • Hippocratea and other Greek physicians mentioned it. • Chinese used it over 2000 years ago. • 18th century: -- Japanese used it to treat emperor’s tension headache -- Rev. Edmund Stone used it to trat patients with fever and pain.

適量Aspirin (65 mg-325 mg) 能減少血栓形成,預防病人血栓疾病
Discovery and purification of cyclooxygenases (COX) 1933-1934 – Discovery of prostaglandins (Goldblatt, von Euler). 1960s – Isolation and structural analysis of PGs (Berström, Samuelsson). 1970s – COX was purified from ram seminal vesicles (Bill Lands). 1980s – COX cDNA was cloned (Bill Smith). This COX is now known as COX-1. 1990 – COX-1 X-ray crystal structure (Garavito)
Cloning of COX-2 • Phorbol ester-induced genes in NIH 3T3 (Hershman’s group) • Src-induced genes in chick embryo cells (Simmon’s group) • (~60% sequence homology with COX-1)

Aspirin and sodium salicylic inhibit COX-2, IL-4 and IL-6 expressions with equal potency at the transcriptional level. • They inhibit gene transcription by blocking binding of C/EBPb and c-Rel (NF-kB) transcription activators
