Description
Loxoprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. (In Vitro) :Loxoprofen, an anti-inflammatory prodrug (NSAID), is a nonselective COX inhibitor with IC50s of 6.5 and 13.5 μM for COX-1 and COX-2 in human whole blood assays, respectively.Loxoprofen (LOX) is a non-selective cyclooxygenase inhibitor that is widely used for the reasearch of pain and inflammation caused by chronic and transitory conditions. Its alcoholic metabolites are formed by carbonyl reductase (CR) and they consist of trans-LOX, which is active, and cis-LOX, which is inactive. In addition, LOX can also be converted into an inactive hydroxylated metabolite (OH-LOXs) by cytochrome P450 (CYP) . (In Vivo) :Loxoprofen sodium (4 mg/kg/day; p.o.; 1 or 8 weeks) reduces atherosclerosis in mice by reducing inflammation. Loxoprofen sodium (60 μg/mL; p.o.; 24 days) suppresses mouse tumor growth by inhibiting VEGF.
