History section problems
Something fishy is going on with the editing. I'm reading for a project so I don't have time to fix it, but there have been a lot of recent edits to the 'History' section. I think it's vandalism. Valerie (talk) 00:42, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

Clinical significance section problems
Clinical Significance - someone's butchered this sentence and I don't know the original intent so cannot fix it.

The penn Group found that this was due to the for several reasons low-dose aspirin protects against heart attacks and strokes by blocking COX-1 from forming a prostaglandin called thromboxane A2 in sticks platelets together promotes clotting so inhibiting this helps prevent heart disease .

Copyright violation removed
I removed a very interesting but illegal copy of from the "Clinical significance" section. If someone wants to summarize this source and put it in context, that would make a good addition to the article. That section also referenced:

Incorrect Mechanism Image: PGG2 mechanism.png
The image "PGG2 mechanism.png" is incorrect in one stage. The intermediate just before the completion of Prostaglandin G2 is missing a methylene linker just adjacent to the peroxide bridged ring, giving a total of 19 carbons instead of the correct 20. I think the other intermediates look correct, but I don't have the expertise to comment on the validity of the mechanism generally. I also don't have ChemDraw or the time to fix it myself, just wanted to bring attention to this problem.

This is my first time posting to a talk page, so I'd appreciate pointers on any errors with format or procedure I've made. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dreymond (talk • contribs) 19:38, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
