Description
Roxatidine (78273-80-0) is a novel histamine H2 receptor antagonist.1Suppresses inflammatory responses via inhibition of NFκB and p38 MAPK activation in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages.2Clinically useful agent for prevention and healing of gastric and duodenal ulcers and bleeding.3Attenuates degradation of extracellular matrix in osteoarthritis models by inactivating the NFkB pathway.4
