Product Data
Biological target:
A COX-2 inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
As shown in Figure 1, significantly elevated positive SA-β-Gal staining was observed in the chondrocytes stimulated with IL-1β but it was dramatically suppressed by treatment with Feprazone in a dose-dependent manner. For further confirmation, the telomerase activity in the treated chondrocytes was evaluated. As shown in Figure 2, the telomerase activities in the control, IL-1β, IL-1β + 10 μM Feprazone, and IL-1β + 20 μM Feprazone were 21.8, 12.5, 16.7, and 19.2 IU/L, respectively. These data indicate that the cell senescence induced by IL-1β was alleviated by Feprazone. Reference: ACS Omega. 2021 Apr 13; 6(14): 9442–9448. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8047674/
In vivo activity:
As shown in Figure 7A,B, according to the images of HE staining on adipocyte tissues, compared to the control, the adipocyte size was significantly elevated in the HFD mice but was greatly inhibited by the administration of Feprazone.
