Etoricoxib (MK-663) is a synthetic, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with antipyretic, analgesic, and potential antineoplastic properties. Etoricoxib specifically binds to and inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), resulting in inhibition of the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandins. Inhibition of COX-2 may induce apoptosis and inhibit tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis.

| Description | Etoricoxib (MK-663) is a synthetic, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) with antipyretic, analgesic, and potential antineoplastic properties. Etoricoxib specifically binds to and inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), resulting in inhibition of the conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandins. Inhibition of COX-2 may induce apoptosis and inhibit tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis. |
| Targets&IC50 | COX-1:116 μM (in human whole blood), COX-2:1.1 μM COX-1 |
| In vivo | The preferential cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor etoricoxib significantly reduces the anticonvulsant action of phenytoin and significantly increases the beneficial action of diazepam against maximal electroshock and pentylenetetrazole-induced convulsions in a mouse model[1]. Etoricoxib has the potential to act as an anti-apoptotic and anti- proliferative agent in the colon[2]. |
| Cell Research | Human colon carcinoma cell line HCT-116 are treated with various coxibs for 2 h. Subsequently, the cells are harvested and the sphingolipids isolated and determined by LC-MS/MS. (Only for Reference) |
