Inhibition of bacterial multidrug resistance by celecoxib, a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor.
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major problem in the treatment of infectious diseases and cancer. Accumulating evidence suggests that the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)-specific inhibitor celecoxib would not only inhibit COX-2 but also help in the reversal of drug resistance in cancers by inhibiting the MDR1 efflux pump. Here, we demonstrate that celecoxib increases the sensitivity of bacteria to the...
متن کاملThe Effect of Celecoxib, a Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitor on Noise- Induced Hearing Loss
Objective(s): Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is the major cause of acquired hearing loss. Celecoxib, a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor, is a non- steroidal anti- inflammatory drug (NSAID) with known antioxidant and antineoplastic activity. Therefore, we monitored the extent of temporary noise- induced threshold shifts (TTS) and cochlear damage caused by high level 4- kHz noise exposure t...
متن کاملInhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 by celecoxib reverses tumor-induced wasting.
There have been a number of reports suggesting inhibition of prostaglandin production may impact tumor-mediated wasting and levels of associated humoral factors such as hypercalcemia. These reductions were achieved using traditional nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which are often contraindicated in cancer patients. This is especially true during chemotherapeutic regimens due to c...
متن کاملCelecoxib, a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor, reduces neointimal hyperplasia through inhibition of Akt signaling.
BACKGROUND Celecoxib has been shown to have antitumor effects that may be mediated through the cyclooxygenase-independent inhibition of Akt signaling. Here, we examined the effects of celecoxib on neointimal formation after balloon injury and its mechanism of action. METHODS AND RESULTS In vitro experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of celecoxib on the Akt/GSK signaling axis and ...
