Post-ischaemic treatment with the cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor nimesulide reduces blood-brain barrier disruption and leukocyte infiltration following transient focal cerebral ischaemia in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Several studies suggest that cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 plays a pivotal role in the progression of ischemic brain damage. In the present study, we investigated the effects of selective inhibition of COX-2 with nimesulide (12 mg/kg) and selective inhibition ...

Amantadine produces analgesia through a unique mechanism and pharmacokinetics in chickens [PDF]

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Veterinary Sciences
Nowadays, there is a requisite for worthy and effective analgesic drugs with the least side effects for proper use in veterinary medicine. The goal was to relate amantadine (AMN) pharmacodynamics (i.e. analgesia and COX-2 inhibition) with a preferential (

Cyclooxygenase-2-Prostaglandin E2 pathway: A key player in tumor-associated immune cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
Cyclooxygenases-2 (COX-2) and Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which are important in chronic inflammatory diseases, can increase tumor incidence and promote tumor growth and metastasis.

Relationship between tumour PTEN/Akt/COX-2 expression, inflammatory response and survival in patients with colorectal cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), local and systemic inflammatory responses have been extensively reported to associate with cancer survival. However, the specific signalling pathways responsible for inflammatory responses are not clear. The PTEN/

Synthesis of 2-Methyl-3-indolylacetic Derivatives as Anti-Inflammatory Agents That Inhibit Preferentially Cyclooxygenase 1 without Gastric Damage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Novel substituted 2-methyl-3-indolylacetic derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their activity in vitro and in vivo on COX-1 and COX-2. Active compounds were screened to determine their gastrointestinal tolerability in vivo in the rat.

Hidden Cardiotoxicity of Rofecoxib Can be Revealed in Experimental Models of Ischemia/Reperfusion

open access: yesCells, 2020
Cardiac adverse effects are among the leading causes of the discontinuation of clinical trials and the withdrawal of drugs from the market. The novel concept of ‘hidden cardiotoxicity’ is defined as cardiotoxicity of a drug that manifests in ...

Arzanol, a prenylated heterodimeric phloroglucinyl pyrone, inhibits eicosanoid biosynthesis and exhibits anti-inflammatory efficacy in vivo. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Based on its capacity to inhibit in vitro HIV-1 replication in T cells and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in monocytes, the prenylated heterodimeric phloroglucinyl α-pyrone arzanol was identified as the major anti-inflammatory and anti-viral ...

Pharmacodynamic and Pharmacokinetic Comparison between Selective and Non-selective COX-2 Inhibitors in Mice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Veterinary Sciences
Nowadays, there is a need for good and efficacious NSAIDs with minimal side effects to be applied in veterinary medicine. The aim was to compare the pharmacodynamics (analgesia and inhibition of COX-2) and pharmacokinetics between selective (nimesulide ...

Kaempferol Improves Breast Cancer-Related Depression through the COX-2/PGE2 Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2023
Background: Breast cancer-related depression (BCRD) is strongly associated with BC and increases recurrence and mortality. This study investigated the role of kaempferol in the pathogenesis of BCRD and its underlying mechanism.
