Lipid Raft Membrane Interactivity Correlating with Cyclooxygenase-2 Selectivity of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs. (PubMed, Membranes (Basel)) - "Conventional NSAIDs (diclofenac, ibuprofen, indomethacin, aspirin, and flurbiprofen) and Coxibs (lumiracoxib, etoricoxib, celecoxib, valdecoxib, and rofecoxib) decreased membrane fluidity, whereas Oxicams (meloxicam, piroxicam, tenoxicam, and lornoxicam) increased. Under inflammatory acidic conditions, the lipid raft membrane interactivity of NSAIDs was more likely to correlate with cyclooxygenase-2 selectivity than the reference membrane interactivity. It is hypothesized that NSAIDs may interact with lipid raft membranes to induce membrane fluidity changes with the potency corresponding to cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition, disrupting the structural and functional integrity of lipid rafts to affect the activity of cyclooxygenase-2 localized in lipid rafts, resulting in cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibition."

Comprehensive Analysis of Gastrointestinal Injury Induced by Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs Using Data from FDA Adverse Event Reporting System Database. (PubMed, Pharmaceuticals (Basel)) - "Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) selective NSAIDs (e.g., celecoxib, rofecoxib) were associated with a lower incidence but greater severity, primarily in the upper GI tract. Conversely, nonselective NSAIDs (e.g., acetylsalicylic acid, lornoxicam) showed higher incidence rates, though the events were generally milder. In our dataset, acetylsalicylic acid had the highest incidence, whereas meloxicam showed the highest severity... NSAIDs differ significantly in their gastrointestinal adverse event profiles, attributable to COX selectivity. When selecting an NSAID, both the likelihood and the nature of potential GI harm should be considered."

Celecoxib (IC50 15.81 ± 0.71 μM), lornoxicam (IC50 16.54 ± 0.28 μM) and nimesulide (IC50 19.87 ± 0.85 μM) showed excellent inhibitory profiles. Flurbiprofen (IC50 21.73 ± 0.93 μM) and etoricoxib (IC50 24.93 ± 0.64 μM) moderately inhibited the target enzyme...Density functional theory (DFT) and ESP studies, MD simulations and MMPBSA free energy calculations further reiterated the stability of ligand-receptor complexes. Overall, these findings highlight the potential of targeted NSAIDs as dual COX/LOX inhibitors with broader therapeutic relevance in inflammatory disorders."

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for acute renal colic. (PubMed, Cochrane Database Syst Rev) - "NSAIDs may reduce pain in adult patients with renal colic compared to placebo. Comparing one NSAID against another, IV ketorolac may be less effective than IV ibuprofen, and pirprofen may result in less need for rescue medication than indomethacin. The intravenous route of administration is probably similar to the intramuscular route but may be better than the rectal route. The evidence is uncertain regarding the potential harms of NSAIDs. We were not able to perform subgroup analysis based on our predefined criteria because there were no eligible studies."
