Chemical Structure

Biological activities

Celecoxib is a sulfa non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and selective COX-2 inhibitor with an IC50 of 40 nM. ED50s of celecoxib are 0.37, 7.1 and 34.5 mg/kg in rat adjuvant-induced arthritis assay, carrageenan-induced foot pad edema assay and carrageenan-induced hyperalgesia assay.[1] The IC50 for celecoxib for inhibition of LLC cells is 40 μM. When celecoxib concentrations of ??0 μM are used, no cytotoxicity effect on LLC cells viability or growth is observed. When celecoxib concentrations of ??0 μM are used, a dramatic decrease in cell viability is observed. Furthermore, 50 μM celecoxib treatment causes significant apoptosis in all three cell lines with 88%, 37%, and 15% of LLC, HCA-7, and HCT-15 cells, respectively, undergoing apoptosis.[2] Celecoxib has similar in vitro antiproliferative effects on both epithelial and hematopoietic cancer cell lines, with IC50 values ranging from 35 to 65 μM. When dose-response effects of rofecoxib and celecoxib are compared between the COX-2 epithelial line A549, and the COX-2-negative, hematopoietic line BALL-1, celecoxib exposure results in growth inhibition ??0% in both lines, whereas rofecoxib exposure results in ??0% inhibition over the entire concentration range (0-60 μM). At the 135 μM concentration of celecoxib and rofecoxib, the percentages of Annexin V??cells are 43.4 and 7.2, respectively, for the A549 cell line and 60.7 and 8.2 for the BALL-1 cell line.[3] IC50 dose of celecoxib (70 μM for HuH7 cells and 61 μM for PLC cells) significantly decreases proliferating cell nuclear antigen expression (75.8% in HuH7 cells and 45.0% in PLC cells) by western blot analysis. IC50 dose of celecoxib (70 μM for HuH7 cells and 61 μM for PLC cells) also results in significant time-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation in both HuH7 cells and PLC cells that is associated with a comparable pattern of decreased BrdUrd uptake.[4] In HCA-7 xenograft model, celecoxib (1250 mg/kg of chow) significantly prevents the growth of colorectal carcinoma cells HCA-7 xenograft when compared with animals on the control diet.[2] In vivo HuH7 xenografts in nude mice, celecoxib (50 mg/kg/day) is associated with a significantly reduced PGE2 production in hepatocellular carcinoma xenograft tissue, indicating an in vivo COX-2-dependent pathway, and celecoxib (50 mg/kg/day) increases PPARγ expression in the xenograft tissue, indicating an in vivo mechanism of the COX-2-independent pathway.[4]
