Anti-Cancer Acitivity of Etodolac and Its Derivatives on Prostate and Colorectal Cancer Cell Lines

Abstract: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used as anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents. This family of drugs suppresses prostaglandin synthesis through inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes. Recent studies showed that anti-carcinogenic effects of these drugs are especially mediated by COX-2 enzyme. Etodolac is a COX-2 inhibitor and though not perfectly selective, it exhibits “preferential selectivity” for COX-2. In this study, the anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of etodolac and… Show more

“…The obtained pro-apoptotic pattern may be related to the inhibition of arachidonic acid metabolism through the modulation of COX activity, which influences, to a great extent, proliferation activity in several tumors [ 40 ]. The generated ETD pro-apoptosis was also in accordance with the possible roles of COX-2 inhibitors in the inhibition of oral cancer progression [ 41 ], breast cancer [ 40 ], prostate PC3 cells and colorectal carcinoma HT-29 cells, uterus carcinoma, cervical carcinoma, T cell leukemia [ 15 ] and bladder cancer [ 42 ]. Figure 7 e explains the changes in the different cell cycle phases by graphical illustration.…”

“…Regarding anticancer potential, ETD inhibits peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NFkB) pathways [ 14 ]. ETD has different structural characteristics than other COX-2 inhibitors in that it has no sulfonyl, sulfonamide or sulfone groups to facilitate COX-2 binding [ 15 ]. So, it inhibits retinoid X receptor (RXRα) initiating apoptosis in cancer cells with high expression levels of the PPARγ/RXRαnuclear receptor complex.…”
