Metabolic stereoisomeric inversion of ibuprofen in mammals.

TLDR
In vitro findings suggest that the step of acyl-CoA formation assume a pivotal role in controlling the stereoselectivity and efficiency of the in vivo metabolism of ibuprofen isomerization in guinea pigs.

Clinical pharmacokinetics of ibuprofen. The first 30 years

TL;DR: A relationship between ibuprofen plasma concentrations and analgesic and antipyretic effects has been elucidated and a proposed site of action for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is proposed.

Purification and properties of an alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase from rat liver.

TL;DR: A very sensitive and convenient radiometric assay, with 2-methyl[2-(3)H]acyl-CoAs as substrates, was developed, which showed the mechanism involves abstraction of a proton in the alpha-position of the fatty acid.

The specificity of triglyceride synthesis from diglycerides in chicken adipose tissue.

TL;DR: The specificity of esterification of diglycerides is examined in a particulate enzyme system obtained from chicken fat which gives a relatively high yield with respect to both coenzyme A and the fatty acid.

Renal Effects of Ibuprofen, Piroxicam, and Sulindac in Patients with Asymptomatic Renal Failure: A Prospective, Randomized, Crossover Comparison

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of three chemically distinct nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on renal function in patients with asymptomatic, mild but stable chronic renal failure were evaluated.
