Indomethacin
Indomethacin
Indomethacin, an anti-inflammatory agent, inhibits Cox-1 and Cox-2 (cyclooxygenases) with selectivity for Cox-1 (IC50 of 230 nM) over Cox-2 (IC50 of 630 nM).
- Anti-inflammatory
- Adipogenic
- ligand-activated
- pKa=4.5 (Lit.)
Additionally, Indomethacin displays adipogenic actions via binding and activation of PPARγ (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ), a ligand-activated transcription factor known to play an important role in adipogenesis.
Inhibitor of cyclooxygenase (prostaglandin H synthase 1 and 2). An anti-inflammatory (by blocking prostaglandin biosynthesis by inhibiting cyclooxygenase), antipyretic and analgesic agent. May help prevent the stimulation of tumor cell growth and the suppression of immune surveillance caused by cyclooxygenase's ability to convert arachidonic acid to pro-inflammatory substances such as prostaglandins. Indomethacin is metabolized by the liver and the metabolites excreted in the urine.
EmM (230 nm)=20.8 (in ethanol), EmM (260 nm)=16.2 (in ethanol), EmM (319 nm)=6.29 (in ethanol),(Lit)
