Biological Activity

[Description]:

Naproxcinod (Nitronaproxen) is the first in class of cyclooxygenase (COX)-inhibiting nitric oxide donators (CINODs). Naproxcinod shows analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, it can be used for the research of osteoarthritis and inflammation[1][2][3].

[In Vitro]

Naproxcinod (1-30 μM; 15 min) concentration-dependently increases cGMP level up to 27-fold over basal level[1]. Naproxcinod (1-100 μM; 8 h) concentration-dependently increases HO-1 mRNA in endothelial cells[2]. Western Blot Analysis[2] Cell Line: Endothelial and gastric mucosal cell lines Concentration: 30-1000 μM Incubation Time: 8 and 24 hours Result: Increased HO-1 protein levels in endothelial and gastric mucosal cells and increased HO-1mRNA levels in endothelial cells.

[In Vivo]

Naproxcinod (0-41 mg/kg; p.o. once daily for 42 weeks) shows a significantly higher mean BW (7.3%) than vehicle group and improves skeletal and cardiac disease phenotype in the mouse model of DMD[3]. Animal Model: C57BL/10 mice with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)[3] Dosage: 0, 10, 21 and 41 mg/kg Administration: Oral gavage; 0-41 mg/kg once daily for 42 weeks Result: Significantly improved fraction shortening and ejection fraction, and reduced inflammation in vivo.
