ln Vitro |
Recent studies from our laboratory have shown that derivatization of the carboxylate moiety in substrate analogue inhibitors, such as 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid, and in nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as indomethacin and meclofenamic acid, results in the generation of potent and selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors (Kalgutkar et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2000, 97, 925-930). This paper summarizes details of the structure-activity studies involved in the transformation of the arylacetic acid NSAID, indomethacin, into a COX-2-selective inhibitor. Many of the structurally diverse indomethacin esters and amides inhibited purified human COX-2 with ICo5 values in the low-nanomolar range but did not inhibit ovine COX-1 activity at concentrations as high as 66 microM. Primary and secondary amide analogues of indomethacin were more potent as COX-2 inhibitors than the corresponding tertiary amides. Replacement of the 4-chlorobenzoyl group in indomethacin esters or amides with the 4-bromobenzyl functionality or hydrogen afforded inactive compounds. Likewise, exchanging the 2-methyl group on the indole ring in the ester and amide series with a hydrogen also generated inactive compounds. Inhibition kinetics revealed that indomethacin amides behave as slow, tight-binding inhibitors of COX-2 and that selectivity is a function of the time-dependent step. Conversion of indomethacin into ester and amide derivatives provides a facile strategy for generating highly selective COX-2 inhibitors and eliminating the gastrointestinal side effects of the parent compound.[1]

Enzyme Assay |
Enzymology. [1]
COX-1 was purified from ram seminal vesicles as described earlier.36 The specific activity of the protein was 20 (μMO2/min)/mg, and the percentage of holoprotein was 13.5%. ApoCOX-1 was prepared as described earlier.37 Apoenzyme was reconstituted by the addition of hematin to the assay mixtures. Human COX-2 was expressed in SF-9 insect cells by means of the pVL 1393 expression vector and purified by ion-exchange and gel filtration chromatography. All of the purified proteins were shown by densitometric scanning of a 7.5% SDS PAGE gel to be >80% pure. Time- and Concentration-Dependent Inhibition of Ovine COX-1 and Human COX-2 Using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) Assay. [1] Cyclooxygenase activity of ovine COX-1 (44 nM) or human COX-2 (66 nM) was assayed by TLC. Reaction mixtures of 200 μL consisted of hematin-reconstituted protein in 100 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 500 μM phenol, and [1-14C]arachidonic acid (50 μM, ∼55−57 mCi/mmol). For the time-dependent inhibition assay, hematin-reconstituted COX-1 (44 nM) or COX-2 (66 nM) was preincubated at room temperature for 20 min with varying inhibitor concentrations in DMSO followed by the addition of [1-14C]arachidonic acid (50 μM) for 30 s at 37 °C. Reactions were terminated by solvent extraction in Et2O/CH3OH/1 M citrate, pH 4.0 (30:4:1). The phases were separated by centrifugation at 2000g for 2 min and the organic phase was spotted on a TLC plate. The plate was developed in EtOAc/CH2Cl2/glacial AcOH (75:25:1) at 4 °C. Radiolabeled prostanoid products were quantitated with a radioactivity scanner. The percentage of total products observed at different inhibitor concentrations was divided by the percentage of products observed for protein samples preincubated for the same time with DMSO. |

Inhibition of COX-2 Activity in Activated RAW264.7. [1]
Protocols for COX-2 inhibition in RAW264.7 cells have been previously described.23 Briefly, cells (6.2 × 106 cells/T25 flask) were activated with lipopolysaccharide (1 μg/mL) and γ-interferon (10 U/mL) in serum-free DMEM for 7 h and then treated with inhibitor (0−2 μM) for 30 min at 37 °C. Exogenous arachidonate metabolism was determined by adding [1-14C]arachidonic acid (20 μM) for 15 min at 37 °C. IC50 values are the average of two independent determinations. |
