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 ...

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.

Pharmacodynamic of cyclooxygenase inhibitors in humans
Prostaglandins & Other Lipid Mediators, 2007We provide comprehensive knowledge on the differential regulation of expression and catalysis of cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 in health and disease which represents an essential requirement to read out the clinical consequences of selective and nonselective inhibition of COX-isozymes in humans.

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.

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.

Rofecoxib: A specific cyclooxygenase inhibitor
Drugs of Today, 2000Rofecoxib is a new specific cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor. The efficacy of rofecoxib has been established in the treatment of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and acute pain. Rofecoxib has been approved in the United States for the treatment of osteoarthritis and acute pain. Endoscopically proven gastrointestinal ulceration is much less with rofecoxib

The Coxibs, Selective Inhibitors of Cyclooxygenase-2
New England Journal of Medicine, 2001Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used to treat arthritis, menstrual pain, and headache. Although they are effective, their long-term use is limited by gastrointestinal effects such as dyspepsia and abdominal pain and, less often, gastric or duodenal perforation or bleeding.

[Pharmacology and classification of cyclooxygenase inhibitors].
Gastroenterologie clinique et biologique, 2004The discovery of at least two cyclooxygenase (COX) isoenzymes had two major consequences: i) to give a new impetus to the research on lipid metabolism, giving rise to the crystallization of these peculiar membrane enzymes, the characterization of their active sites and their gene regulation, and the identification of new metabolic pathways; ii) the ...

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 ...
