Biological Activity

Description S-(+)-Ketoprofen (Compound 1, Actron, (S)-Ketoprofen, Dexketoprofen) is a potent inhibitor of cyclooxygenase (COX) with IC50 of 1.9 nM and 27 nM for COX-1 and COX-2, respectively.
Targets
COX-1 [1]
(Cell-free assay)
COX-2 [1]
(Cell-free assay)
1.9 nM 27 nM
In vitro

Ketoprofen combined with UVB irradiation induces the cytotoxicity and suppresses DNA synthesis in HaCaT cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Ketoprofen combined with UVB irradiation inhibits the cell growth and induces G2/M cell cycle arrest by modulating the levels of cdc2, cyclin B1, Chk1, Tyr15-phosphorylated cdc2 and p21. Ketoprofen combined with UVB irradiation also provokes a striking accumulation of cyclin B1-cdc2-p21 complexes, concomitantly with an increase in the levels of Tyr15-phosphorylated cdc2 and p21 protein. Ketoprofen combined with UVB irradiation accentuates the apoptotic response to UVB radiation in HaCaT cells as evidenced by DAPI staining. [1]

In vivo

Ketoprofen at 1% level in suitable topical vehicles can effectively inhibit GCF-LTB4 and GCF-PGE2 and positively alter alveolar bone activity in the ligature-induced model of periodontitis in the monkey. [2] Ketoprofen (3.63 mg/kg bwt) reduces hoof pain andlameness to a greater extent than the 2.2 mg/kg dose and phenylbutazone. [3] Ketoprofen is more effective than local anesthesia (LA), or caudal epidural anesthesia (EPI) in decreasing cortisol and partially reverses the reduction in average daily gain (ADG) following castration. [4] Ketoprofen (40 and 80 mg/kg diet) reduces the incidence of transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder by >70% from that seen in dietary mice. [5]
