A leukocyte extract, which had a high peroxidase activity (mostly myeloperoxidase), converted tenoxicam [4-hydroxy-N-(2'-pyridyl)-2-methyl-2H-thieno-(2,3e)-1,2-thiazine-3 - carboxamide-1,1-dioxide] a potent antiinflammatory drug, into four novel metabolites in the presence of H2O2: 4,5-dihydro-4-oxo-5-methyliminopyrido (1,2a) imidazole (metabolite I), 2-carboxyl-3-thiofenesulfinic acid (metabolite II), 2-carboxyl-3-thiofenesulfonic acid (metabolite III), and N-methyl-N'-(2-pyridyl)oxamide (metabolite IV). These metabolites were probably formed by a one-electron oxidation reaction at the center carbon atom of the beta-diketone moiety of tenoxicam. Tenoxicam is a cofactor for the reduction of peroxidases and this capability may explain at least a part of the antiinflammatory effect of tenoxicam.

D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010544 Peroxidases Ovoperoxidase
D010894 Piroxicam A cyclooxygenase inhibiting, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that is well established in treating rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis and used for musculoskeletal disorders, dysmenorrhea, and postoperative pain. Its long half-life enables it to be administered once daily. CP-16171,Feldene,CP 16171,CP16171

D006861 Hydrogen Peroxide A strong oxidizing agent used in aqueous solution as a ripening agent, bleach, and topical anti-infective. It is relatively unstable and solutions deteriorate over time unless stabilized by the addition of acetanilide or similar organic materials.

D000894 Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.

D001711 Biotransformation The chemical alteration of an exogenous substance by or in a biological system. The alteration may inactivate the compound or it may result in the production of an active metabolite of an inactive parent compound. The alterations may be divided into METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE I and METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE II.
