Disease relevance of Licofelone

 

High impact information on Licofelone

  • Coincubation of licofelone with TGFbeta1 plus 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) did not affect FLAP or 5-LOX levels [6].
  • In the presence of TGFbeta1 plus 1,25(OH)(2)D(3), naproxen, but not licofelone, induced MMP-1 production and both drugs decreased nitric oxide levels [6].
  • Conversely, treatment with licofelone showed no effect on 5-LOX but significantly reduced FLAP expression levels [6].
  • OBJECTIVE: To compare the effect of licofelone, NS-398 (an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase 2 [COX-2]), and BayX-1005 (an inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase activating protein) on the production of leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), and on cell biomarkers by human osteoarthritis (OA) subchondral osteoblasts [7].
  • Because LTB(4) can modify cell biomarkers in OA and normal osteoblasts, our results suggest licofelone could modify abnormal bone remodeling in OA [7].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Licofelone

  • Preliminary results of clinical studies of licofelone in osteoarthritis indicate that the drug has a comparable or slightly better efficacy than that of naproxen but possesses a much better gastrointestinal safety [8].
  • Zileuton (25-100 mg/kg, po), a 5-LOX inhibitor, indomethacin (1-30 mg/kg, po), a non-selective COX inhibitor, and licofelone (10-100 mg/kg, po) a dual inhibitor, significantly reversed the mechanical hyperalgesia and also caused an increase in cold allodynia threshold with different pharmacologic profile [9].

Gene context of Licofelone

  • Licofelone is a competitive inhibitor of 5-LOX, COX-1 and COX-2 that is currently being developed for the treatment of osteoarthritis [2].
  • Novel agents include the COX-inhibiting nitric oxide donors and the lipoxygenase (LOX)/COX inhibitor licofelone [19].
  • Moreover, licofelone treatment (30 microM) attenuated expression of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 on inflammatory EC [4].
  • The regulation of human MMP-13 by licofelone, an inhibitor of cyclo-oxygenases and 5-lipoxygenase, in human osteoarthritic chondrocytes is mediated by the inhibition of the p38 MAP kinase signalling pathway [15].
  • The aim of the present study was to investigate if there is a contribution of mechanisms other than the reduction of inflammatory prostaglandins and leukotrienes to the anti-inflammatory effect of the LOX/COX inhibitor licofelone [4].
