Acetaminophen (paracetamol) is a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor widely employed in biomedical studies for investigating analgesic and antipyretic mechanisms Its inhibition of COX-2 enzyme activity occurs with an IC50 of approximately 25 8 M Experimental use includes inducing cellular hepatotoxicity models where acetaminophen exposure triggers glutathione depletion impaired glutathione peroxidase activity and ferroptosis-mediated cell death This makes acetaminophen useful in examining oxidative stress hepatic cell injury and associated cellular response mechanisms in vitro and in animal studies Additionally acetaminophen-mediated toxicity is applicable in screening protective agents or evaluating ferroptosis inhibitors in pharmacological research
