Diclofenac (Sodium) (Standard)

• CAS Number: 15307-79-6
• UNSPSC Description: Diclofenac (Sodium) (Standard) is the analytical standard of Diclofenac (Sodium). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Diclofenac Sodium (GP 45840) is a potent and nonselective anti-inflammatory agent, acts as a COX inhibitor, with IC50s of 4 and 1.3 nM for human COX-1 and COX-2 in CHO cells[1], and 5.1 and 0.84 μM for ovine COX-1 and COX-2, respectively[2]. Diclofenac Sodium induces apoptosis of neural stem cells (NSCs) via the activation of the caspase cascade[3].
