| Name | Ampiroxicam |
| Description | Ampiroxicam (Flucam) is a nonselective cyclooxygenase inhibitor uesd as anti-inflammatory drug. |
| Cell Research | Panc-1 cells are plated in DME/F12 medium with 5% fetal bovine serum and treated on the next day with vehicle (0.1% DMSO) or various concentrations of Ampiroxicam. Cells are counted at the indicated times with a Coulter Z1 cell counter. Each experiment is done in triplicate, and results are expressed as means, with error bars representing 95% confidence intervals (CIs).(Only for Reference) |
| In vitro | Ampiroxicam (<150 μM) dose-dependently decreases the proliferation of Panc-1 cells. [1] Ampiroxicam (50 μM) results in decreased expression of Sp1, Sp3, Sp4, and VEGFR1 proteins in Panc-1 cells and L3.6pl cells as determined by Western blot analysis. Ampiroxicam (50 μM) results in increased phosphorylation of MAPK1/2 in Panc-1 cells and L3.6pl cells. [2] |
| In vivo | Ampiroxicam inhibits the stretching response in mice induced by phenylbenzoquinone (PBQ) with maximum protective effect (MPE) of 2 mg/kg. Ampiroxicam inhibits swelling in a dose-responsive manner in the rat foot edema (RFE) assay with ED50 of 28 mg/kg at single oral dose and 7.8 mg/kg at 5 daily oral dose. Ampiroxicam blocks primary and secondary lesion development in rat adjuvant arthritis with ED50 of 2.2 mg/kg and 0.5 mg/kg, respectively. Ampiroxicam (3.2 mg/kg) leads to a plasma concentration of 12 μg/mL at a Tmax of 2 hours for piroxicam derived from ampiroxicam in rats. [3] Ultraviolet-A (UVA)-irradiated 1% Ampiroxicam sensitized in guinea pigs shows positive reaction in the patch testing to UVA-irradiated 1% Ampiroxicam and 1% thiosalicylate (TOS). Concentration of Ampiroxicam is easily reduced by the increase in UVA irradiation doses, as compared with that of piroxicam. [4] |
