Current Opinion in Internal Medicine, 2006
The purpose of this review is to summarize new information regarding the use of selective inhibitors of the cyclooxygenase-2 enzyme, emphasizing recent developments regarding cardiovascular risk.Selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors are as effective as nonselective nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs in relieving pain and inflammation but are ...

Cyclooxygenase‐independent actions of cyclooxygenase inhibitors
The FASEB Journal, 2001Several studies have demonstrated unequivocally that certain nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as sodium salicylate, sulindac, ibuprofen, and flurbiprofen cause anti‐inflammatory and antiproliferative effects independent of cyclooxy‐genase activity and prostaglandin synthesis inhibition.

Publisher Summary This chapter deals with aspects of the discovery and development of Cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) inhibitors, which, in the case of rofecoxib, resulted from efforts that were initiated in July of 1992 and culminated in the launch of the drug in the United States in June of 1999. Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have long been

Cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors are widely used to relieve musculoskeletal pain. COX inhibitors are a group of heterogenous substances including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and paracetamol (acetaminophen). Moreover, various selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors with improved gastrointestinal tolerability as compared with ...

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 1995
Prostaglandins are synthesized by the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), which is the target for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Recently a second form of COX was discovered (COX-2) that is induced by inflammatory stimuli. The identification of an inducible form of COX led to the hypothesis that COX-2 is responsible for inflammatory ...

Cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitors
Drugs of Today, 1999The identification of two cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes has been a tremendous advance in understanding the role of prostaglandins in inflammation and the actions of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). COX-1 activity appears to be related to "constitutive" or "housekeeping" functions in the gastric mucosa, kidney and platelets.

Selective Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors: Current Status
Current Drug Discovery Technologies, 2014For ages aspirin has established its value as an analgesic, anti-inflammatory drug, but in 1938, it was found to be a causative factor of gastric inflammation (ulcer). Later discovered non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) were found effective as aspirin but failed to overcome the goal of safer aspirin.

Enantiospecific, selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors
Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2002Cyclooxygenase inhibition studies with novel indomethacin alkanolamides demonstrate the potential for dramatic differences in inhibitor properties conferred by subtle structural modifications. The transformation of non-selective alpha-(S)-substituted indomethacin ethanolamides to potent, COX-2 selective inhibitors by simple stereocenter inversion ...

DISTINCT EFFECTS: Since the discovery of the two isoforms of COX, the therapeutic effects of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAID) can be distinguished from their adverse effects linked to the inhibition of the constitutional form via selective inhibition of the inducible form.
