Antiproliferative Benzoindazolequinones as Potential Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitors
Quinones and nitrogen heterocyclic moieties have been recognized as important pharmacophores in the development of antitumor agents. This study aimed to establish whether there was any correlation between the in silico predicted parameters and the in ...

Curcumin has been widely reported as an anti-inflammatory agent isolated from the plant Curcuma longa L. (turmeric). This anti-inflammatory activity was associated with the ability of this compound to inhibit the activity of both cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1)

Cyclic AMP increases COX-2 expression via mitogen-activated kinase in human myometrial cells [PDF]
Cyclic AMP (cAMP) is the archetypal smooth muscle relaxant, mediating the effects of many hormones and drugs. However, recently PGI2, acting via cAMP/PKA, was found to increase contraction-associated protein expression in myometrial cells and to promote ...

SELECTIVE CYCLOOXYGENASE-2 INHIBITORS
The identification of COX-2 less than a decade ago has been followed by an unprecedented period of discovery and drug development. An awareness of the existence of two COX isoforms has led to potential novel insights into disease pathogenesis (arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, cancer) and the regulation of normal physiology (brain, kidney).

Mimosine Dipeptide Enantiomsers: Improved Inhibitors against Melanogenesis and Cyclooxygenase
Melanogenesis plays an important role in the protection of skin against UV through production of melanin pigments, but abnormal accumulation of this pigment causes unaesthetic hyperpigmentation. Much effort is being made to develop effective depigmenting

Cardiovascular Effects of the Cyclooxygenase Inhibitors [PDF]
Cyclooxyenase (COX)-2 selective inhibitors were developed to create a new class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) with properties similar to those of nonselective NSAIDS but without their potential COX-1–mediated gastrointestinal toxicities.1,2 Studies of the various COX-2 selective inhibitors have shown that they are in fact associated ...

Cyclooxygenase inhibitors: any reservations? [PDF]
The discovery of two cyclooxygenase isozymes, constitutive COX-1 and inducible COX-2, has resulted in the rapid development of selective inhibitors of COX-2, such as celecoxib and rofecoxib.
