Journal, IO biomarker: Lipid-Encapsulated Engineered Bacterial Living Materials Inhibit Cyclooxygenase II to Enhance Doxorubicin Toxicity. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 26, 2024 In this study, we encapsulated celecoxib (CXB), a specific COX-2 inhibitor, in liposomes anchored to the surface of Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (ECN) through electrostatic absorption (C@ECN) to suppress ECN-induced COX-2 up-regulation and enhance the synergistic antitumor effect of doxorubicin (DOX). Considering the biosafety of C@ECN, a hypoxia-induced lysis circuit, pGEX-Pvhb-Lysis, was introduced into the ECN to limit the number of ECNs in

Journal: Adjuvant COX inhibition augments STING signaling and cytolytic T cell infiltration in irradiated 4T1 tumors. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 24, 2024 Importantly, radiation-indomethacin combination treatment improved local control of the primary lesion, reduced metastatic burden, and increased median survival when compared with radiation treatment alone. These results show that clinically available NSAIDs can improve radiation therapeutic efficacy through increased antitumor immune response and augmented local generation of cGAS/STING1 and type I IFNs.

(Pubmed Central) - Jun 24, 2024
The title compound exhibited binding affinities of -6.4 and -6.5 kcal/mol for COX1 (PDB 3KK6) and COX2 (1CX2) target proteins, respectively. For the first time, predictions regarding ADMET properties, drug-likeness, and toxicity, including favorable bioavailability, along with 100 ns molecular dynamics simulations, binding free energy, and energy decomposition per residue in the binding cavity of the protein from molecular mechanics generalized born surface area approach, collectively indicate the potential of 5A4BT as a nonselective COX inhibitor.

A wide diversity of benzothiazoles were reported over the last years to interfere with various proteins involved in tumorigenesis and, more specifically, in hypoxic tumors. Many hypoxic targets are overexpressed as a result of the hypoxia-inducible factor activation cascade and may not be present in normal tissues, providing a potential strategy for selectively targeting hypoxic cancers.

Journal: An adaptable in silico ensemble model of the arachidonic acid cascade. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 11, 2024 Model applicability was demonstrated using mass spectrometry mediator lipidomics to measure eicosanoids produced by HaCaT epidermal keratinocytes and 46BR.1N dermal fibroblasts, treated with stimuli (calcium ionophore A23187), (ultraviolet radiation, adenosine triphosphate) and a cyclooxygenase inhibitor (indomethacin)...The quantitative agreement between experimental and predicted outputs could be improved by expanding network topology to include additional reactions. Overall, our approach generated an adaptable, tuneable ensemble model of the AA cascade that can be tailored to represent different cell types and demonstrated that the integration of in silico and in vitro methods can facilitate a greater understanding of complex biological networks such as the AA cascade.

(Pubmed Central) - Jun 10, 2024 P1 Naproxen 250 mg twice a day inhibited COX-2 activity to a greater degree than celecoxib 100 mg twice a day.The degree of COX-2 inhibition was associated with the increase in systolic blood pressure with NSAID treatment relative to placebo. Dose and its pharmacological potency achieved in vivo should be considered when evaluating the relative cardiovascular safety of COX-2-selective vs. non-selective NSAIDs.

Review, Journal: Aspirin as a chemopreventive agent for cutaneous melanoma: a literature review. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 8, 2024 Although it appears that more studies suggest a protective role for aspirin rather than not, evidence lacks consistency. Factors such as gender, geography, race, sun exposure, and health conditions play a role in shaping these varied outcomes, necessitating large-scale, prospective studies research and standardized parameters for more conclusive insights that may help guide tailored clinical strategies for melanoma prevention.

Prophylactic administration of a thrombin inhibitor pre-operatively or a cMET inhibitor postoperatively effectively mitigated FF-induced adhesions, while COX inhibitor treatment exhibited no discernible effect. These findings underscore ovulation as a pivotal factor in the development of pelvic wound adhesions and advocate for targeted preventive strategies such as c-MET inhibition, scheduling surgeries outside the ovulatory period, or employing oral contraceptive measures.
