Nonselective cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors are potent tocolytic agents but have adverse effects on the fetal ductus arteriosus. We hypothesized that COX-2 inhibitors may not affect the ductus if the predominant COX isoform is COX-1. To examine this hypothesis, we used ductus arteriosus obtained from late-gestation fetal lambs. In contrast to our hypothesis, fetal lamb ductus arteriosus expressed both COX-1- and COX-2-immunoreactive protein (by Western analysis). Although COX-1 was found in both endothelial and smooth muscle cells, COX-2 was found only in the endothelial cells lining the ductus lumen (by immunohistochemistry). The relative contribution of COX-1 and COX-2 to PGE2 synthesis was consistent with the immunohistochemical results: in the intact ductus, PGE2 formation was catalyzed by both COX-1 and COX-2 in equivalent proportions; in the endothelium-denuded ductus, COX-2 no longer played a significant role in PGE2 synthesis. NS-398, a selective inhibitor of COX-2, was 66% as effective as the selective COX-1 inhibitor valeryl salicylate and the nonselective COX inhibitor indomethacin in causing contraction of the ductus in vitro. At this time, caution should be used when recommending COX-2 inhibitors for use in pregnant women.

Indomethacin and related nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs relax prostanoid-dependent intrinsic tone of isolated guinea pig trachea by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX). Recently, a second isoform of COX (COX-2) was discovered, which differed from COX-1 with respect to protein structure, transcriptional regulation, and susceptibility to inhibition by pharmacological agents. It is now known that indomethacin nonselectively inhibits COX-1 and COX-2, whereas NS-398 is a selective inhibitor of COX-2. In the present study we compared the activity of a selective (NS-398) and nonselective (indomethacin) COX-2 inhibitor on intrinsic tone of isolated guinea pig trachea. NS-398 ≥ indomethacin produced a reversal of intrinsic tone with a similar concentration-dependent (10 nM to 1 μM) time course (Tmax approximately 20–45 min), potency (EC50 1.7 and 5.6 nM, respectively), and maximal response. Contractions to cholinergic nerve stimulation (45 V, 0.5 ms, 0.1–32 Hz) and histamine were similarly modulated in tissues relaxed with the selective or nonselective COX-2 inhibitors. Immunoblot analyses showed that COX-2 protein synthesis was induced in both the cartilage and smooth muscle portions of the trachea during changes in intrinsic tone. These findings are consistent with pharmacological results and provide the first demonstration that prostanoid tone in isolated guinea pig trachea is dependent on COX-2 activity. The results also suggest that the activity of indomethacin in this preparation is likely related to COX-2 inhibition.Key words: cyclooxygenase 2, relaxation, guinea pig trachea, cyclooxygenase 1.

Chlorine-substituted [(prop-2-ynyl)-2-acetoxybenzoate]dicobalthexacarbonyl complexes are selective COX-2 inhibitors with growth-inhibitory potential against COX-1/2 containing MDA-MB-231 and HT-29 tumor cell lines. The metabolic activity of non-tumorigenic HS-5 cells and COX-1/2-independent MCF-7 cells is not influenced.

Ncx 4016

Aceylation of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 by aspirin can trigger the formation of 15(R)-epilipoxin A4, or aspirin-triggered lipoxin (ATL). ATL exerts protective effects in the stomach. Selective COX-2 inhibitors block ATL synthesis and exacerbate aspirin-induced gastric damage. Nitric oxide-releasing aspirins, including NCX-4016, have antiplatelet effects similar to aspirin but do not cause gastric damage. In the present study, we examined whether or not NCX-4016 triggers ATL synthesis and/or upregulates gastric COX-2 expression and the effects of coadministration of NCX-4016 with a selective COX-2 inhibitor on gastric mucosal injury and inflammation. Rats were given aspirin or NCX-4016 orally and either vehicle or a selective COX-2 inhibitor (celecoxib) intraperitoneally. Gastric damage was blindly scored, and granulocyte infiltration into gastric tissue was monitored through measurement of myeloperoxidase activity. Gastric PG and ATL synthesis was measured as was COX-2 expression. Whereas celecoxib inhibited gastric ATL synthesis and increased the severity of aspirin-induced gastric damage and inflammation, coadministration of celecoxib and NCX-4016 did not result in damage or inflammation. NCX-4016 did not upregulate gastric COX-2 expression nor did it trigger ATL synthesis (in contrast to aspirin). Daily administration of aspirin for 5 days resulted in significantly less gastric damage than that seen with a single dose, as well as augmented ATL synthesis. Celecoxib reversed this effect. In contrast, repeated administration of NCX-4016 failed to cause gastric damage, whether given alone or with celecoxib. These studies support the notion that NCX-4016 may be an attractive alternative to aspirin for indications such as cardioprotection, including in individuals also taking selective COX-2 inhibitors.

Novel (4-methoxy or 4,8-dimethoxy)-3-methyl-N-(6-oxo-2-thioxo-1,2,3, 6-tetrahydro- pyrimidin-4-yl) benzo [1,2-b: 5, 4-b’] difuran-2-carboxamide (5a–b) has been synthesized by the reaction of visnagenone–ethylacetate (2a) or khellinone–ethylacetate (2b) with 6-aminothiouracil in dimethylformamide or refluxing of benzofuran-oxy-N-(2-thioxopyrimidine) acetamide (4a–b) in sodium ethoxide to give the same products (5a,b) in good yields. Thus, compounds 5a–b are used as an initiative to prepare many new heterocyclic compounds such as 2-(4-(3-methylbenzodifuran- 2-carbox-amido) pyrimidine) acetic acid (6a–b), N-(thiazolo[3, 2-a]pyrimidine)-3-methylbenzo- difuran-2-carboxamide (7a–b), N-(2-thioxopyrimidine)-methylbenzodifuran-2-carbimidoylchloride (8a–b), N-(2-(methyl-thio) pyrimidine)-3-methylbenzodifuran-2-carbimidoylchloride (9a–b), N-(2, 6 -di(piperazine or morpholine)pyrimidine)-1-(3-methylbenzodifuran)-1-(piperazine or morpholine) methanimine(10a–d), 8-(methylbenzodifuran)-thiazolopyrimido[1,6-a][1,3,5]triazine-3,5-dione (11a –b), 8-(3-methyl benzodifuran)-thiazolopyrimido[6,1-d][1,3,5]oxadiazepine-trione (12a–b), and 2,10 -di(sub-benzylidene)-8-(3-methylbenzodifuran)-thiazolopyrimido[6,1-d][1,3,5]oxadiazepine-3,5,11- trione (13a–f). All new chemical structures were illustrated on the basis of elemental and spectral analysis (IR, NMR, and MS). The new compounds were screened as cyclooxygenase-1/ cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-1/COX-2) inhibitors and had analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities. The compounds 10a–d and 13a–f had the highest inhibitory activity on COX-2 selectivity, with indices of 99–90, analgesic activity of 51–42% protection, and anti-inflammatory activity of 68%–59%. The inhibition of edema for the same compounds, 10a–d and 13a–f, was compared with sodium diclofenac as a standard drug.

Purpose. NSAIDs constitute an important class of drugs with therapeutic applications that have spanned several centuries. Treatment of inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) starting from the classic drug aspirin to the recent rise and fall of selective COX-2 inhibitors has provided an enthralling evolution. Efforts to discover an ultimate magic bullet to treat inflammation continues to be an important drug design challenge. This review traces the origins of NSAIDs, their mechanism of action at the molecular level such as cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition, development of selective COX-2 inhibitors, their adverse cardiovascular effects, and some recent developments targeted to the design of effective anti-inflammatory agents with reduced side effects. Methods. Literature data is presented describing important discoveries pertaining to the sequential development of classical NSAIDs and then selective COX-2 inhibitors, their mechanism of action, the structural basis for COX inhibition, and recent discoveries. Results. A brief history of the development of NSAIDs and the market withdrawal of selective COX-2 inhibitors is explained, followed by the description of prostaglandin biosynthesis, COX isoforms, structure and function. The structural basis for COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition is described along with methods used to evaluate COX-1/COX-2 inhibition. This is followed by a section that encompasses the major chemical classes of selective COX-2 inhibitors. The final section describes briefly some of the recent advances toward developing effective anti-inflammatory agents such as nitric oxide donor NO-NSAIDs, dual COX/LOX inhibitors and anti-TNF therapy. Conclusions. A great deal of progress has been made toward developing novel anti-inflammatory agents. In spite of the tremendous advances in the last decade, the design and development of a safe, effective and economical therapy for treating inflammatory conditions still presents a major challenge.
