NO-donor COX-2 inhibitors. New nitrooxy-substituted 1,5-diarylimidazoles endowed with COX-2 inhibitory and vasodilator properties.

چکیده
A series of NO-donor diarylimidazoles derived from the lead compound Cimicoxib were synthesized and evaluated for their COX-2 inhibitory activity and their stability in whole blood as well as for vasodilator properties. The products are partly transformed into the corresponding alcohols following 24-h incubation in whole blood. All of them display good COX-1/COX-2 selectivity, but are less potent than the lead; a molecular modeling study was carried out to investigate their binding mode. The compounds are also capable of relaxing rat aorta strips precontracted with phenylephrine with a NO-dependent mechanism; this property could confer reduced cardiotoxicity with respect to traditional COX-2 inhibitors.

Nitrooxymethyl-substituted derivatives of Rofecoxib were synthesized and tested for their cyclooxygenase (COX)-inhibiting activity in whole human blood, vasodilator potency on rat aorta strips, and for their capacity of inhibiting platelet aggregation of human platelet-rich plasma. The results show that their potency and selectivity in inhibiting COX isoforms, as well as their anti-aggregatory ...

A new series of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole analogs containing a methyl sulfonyl COX-2 pharmacophore was synthesized and evaluated for their COX-2 inhibitory activity. According to in-vitro COX-1/COX-2 inhibition data, all compounds (6a-g) were selective inhibitors of COX-2 isoenzyme with IC50 values in the highly potent 0.08-0.16 mM range. These results indicated that both potency and selectivity o...
