Background:

NS 398 is a selective inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2 with IC50 value of 3.8 μM [1].

Cyclooxygenase (COX) is an enzyme that is responsible for the formation of prostaglandins, prostacyclin and thromboxane. COX-2 converts arachidonic acid (AA) to prostaglandin endoperoxide H2.

NS 398 is a selective COX-2 inhibitor and a novel anti-inflammatory agent. NS 398 inhibited COX-2 with IC50 value of 3.8 μM in a concentration-dependent way [1]. In RG/C2, AA/C1 and RR/C1 pre-malignant human colorectal adenoma cell lines, NS-398 (20
