Ketoprofen | CAS# 22071-15-4 (free base)

MedKoo Cat#: 318080 | Name: Ketoprofen

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) of the propionic acid class used to treat pain, inflammation, and fever. It works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes, which reduces the synthesis of prostaglandins involved in pain and inflammation. Ketoprofen is commonly prescribed for conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and musculoskeletal pain, and is available in oral, topical, and injectable formulations.

Biological target:

Ketoprofen can inhibits the activity of cyclooxygenase with IC50 values of 2 nM (COX-1) and 26 nM (COX-2).

In vitro activity:

UVB-irradiated KP (ketoprofen) inhibited the cell growth and induced G2/M cell cycle arrest by modulating the levels of cdc2, cyclin B1, Chk1, Tyr15-phosphorylated cdc2 and p21. It also provoked a striking accumulation of cyclin B1-cdc2-p21 complexes, concomitantly with an increase in the levels of Tyr15-phosphorylated cdc2 and p21 protein. The presence of KP accentuated the apoptotic response to UVB radiation in HaCaT cells as evidenced by DAPI staining.

In vivo activity:

Ketoprofen reduced the LPS-induced increase of mRNA abundance of tumor necrosis factor α, IL-8, serum amyloid A, and cyclooxygenase-2. Reference: J Dairy Sci. 2018 Dec;101(12):11321-11329. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30243628/
