Glafenine
Based on 5 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Glafenine (Glafenin) is a non-selective, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-based COX-1/COX-2 inhibitor. Glafenine exerts anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative and anti-cell migration effects by inhibiting the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway and reducing prostaglandin synthesis. Glafenine can induce cell cycle arrest in vascular smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells and reduce the synthesis of the extracellular matrix protein Tenascin. Glafenine can be used in the research of inflammatory-related diseases, vascular restenosis and cystic fibrosis (CF).

Glafenine (10-100 μM; 4-20 days) inhibits cell proliferation and colony formation in human aortic smooth muscle cells (haSMCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) in a dose-dependent manner, induces cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase, and reduces the synthesis of the extracellular matrix protein tenascin[1].
Glafenine (10 μM; 24 h) promotes the maturation and translocation of the F508del-CFTR mutant protein to the cell surface and enhances its chloride channel function in human bronchial epithelial cells (HBE) by inhibiting the COX-2-mediated arachidonic acid pathway[2].

-
Concentration:10 μM, 50 μM, 100 μM
-
Incubation Time:4 days (short-term), 20 days (long-term)
-
Result:In haSMCs, short-term treatment (4 days) with 50 μM and 100 μM significantly reduced cell proliferation by 30-50% compared to control, while long-term treatment (20 days) with all concentrations caused dose-dependent inhibition, with 100 μM nearly halting proliferation.
Clonogenic activity was reduced by 40-70% in both short- and long-term treatments.
Flow cytometry revealed a G2/M phase block (25-35% increase) and reduced G1 phase (15-20% decrease) in haSMCs at 50-100 μM.
