Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitors. 1,5-Diarylpyrrol-3-acetic Esters with Enhanced Inhibitory Activity toward Cyclooxygenase-2 and Improved Cyclooxygenase-2/Cyclooxygenase-1 Selectivity [PDF]
Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2007 The important role of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in the pathogenesis of inflammation and side effect limitations of current COX-2 inhibitor drugs illustrates a need for the design of new compounds based on alternative structural templates. We previously reported a set of substituted 1,5-diarylpyrrole derivatives, along with their inhibitory activity ...

Genetic Variants in COX2 and ALOX Genes and Breast Cancer Risk in White and Black Women
Frontiers in Oncology, 2021 COX and ALOX genes are involved in inflammatory processes and that may be related to breast cancer risk differentially between White and Black women. We evaluated distributions of genetic variants involved in COX2 and ALOX-related pathways and examined ...

Analysis of Gene Expression in Human Dermal Fibroblasts Treated with Senescence-Modulating COX Inhibitors [PDF]
Genomics & Informatics, 2017 We have previously reported that NS-398, a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)–selective inhibitor, inhibited replicative cellular senescence in human dermal fibroblasts and skin aging in hairless mice. In contrast, celecoxib, another COX-2–selective inhibitor, and

Nimesulide limits kainate-induced oxidative damage in the rat hippocampus [PDF]
, 2000 Kainate induces a marked expression of cyclooxygenase-2 after its systemic administration. Because cyclooxygenase-2 activity is associated to the production of reactive oxygen species, we investigated the effects of nimesulide, a selective cyclooxygenase-

Delayed treatment with nimesulide reduces measures of oxidative stress following global ischemic brain injury in gerbils [PDF]
, 2003 Metabolism of arachidonic acid by cyclooxygenase is one of the primary sources of reactive oxygen species in the ischemic brain. Neuronal overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 has recently been shown to contribute to neurodegeneration following ischemic ...
