Ketorolac hemicalcium  (Synonyms: RS37619 hemicalcium)

Cat. No.: HY-B0580C
Handling Instructions

Ketorolac (RS37619) hemicalcium is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), acting as a nonselective COX inhibitor, with IC50s of 20 nM for COX-1 and 120 nM for COX-2. Ketorolac tromethamine is used as 0.5% ophthalmic solution for the research of allergic conjunctivitis, cystoid macular edema, intraoperative miosis, and postoperative ocular inflammation and pain. Ketorola chemicalcium is also a DDX3 inhibitor that can be used for cancer research.

For research use only. We do not sell to patients.

Description

Ketorolac (RS37619) hemicalcium is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), acting as a nonselective COX inhibitor, with IC50s of 20 nM for COX-1 and 120 nM for COX-2. Ketorolac tromethamine is used as 0.5% ophthalmic solution for the research of allergic conjunctivitis, cystoid macular edema, intraoperative miosis, and postoperative ocular inflammation and pain. Ketorola chemicalcium is also a DDX3 inhibitor that can be used for cancer research[1][4].

In Vitro

Ketorolac (RS37619) salt (0-30 μM; 48 h) effectively kills the oral cancer cells[4].
Ketorolac salt (0-5 μM; 48 h) inhibits the expression of DDX3 protein, and induces apoptosis in H357 cells[4].
Ketorolac salt (0-2.5 μM; 0-16 h) inhibits the proliferation of oral cancer cells[4].
Ketorolac salt (0-50 μM) directly interacts with DDX3 and inhibits the ATPase activity[4].

Cell Viability Assay[4]

Cell Line: HOK, SCC4, SCC9 and H357 cells
Concentration: 0-30 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Showed inhibition with IC50s of 2.6, 7.1 and 8.1 μM against H357, SCC4 and SCC9 cells, respectively. And the normal HOK cell line did not show any cell death effect.

Cell Proliferation Assay[4]

Cell Line: H357
Concentration: 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 μM
Incubation Time: 0, 8 and 16 h
Result: Inhibited the proliferation.

Western Blot Analysis[4]

Cell Line: H357
Concentration: 1, 2.5 and 5 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Significantly reduced DDX3 protein expression levels, but not completely ablated as compared to DMSO treated cells. Up regulated the expression of E-cadherin.

Apoptosis Analysis[4]

Cell Line: H357
Concentration: 2.5 and 5 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Induced apoptosis.
In Vivo

Ketorolac (RS37619) (0.4% ketorolac tromethamine ophthalmic solution) shows powerful ocular anti-inflammatory activities in rabbits[1].
Ketorolac (4 mg/kg/day, p.o.; 2 weeks) has no detrimental effect in the volume fraction of bone trabeculae formed inside the alveolar socket in rats[2].
Ketorolac (60 μg; intrathecal injection; once) attenuates the damage caused by spinal cord ischemia in rats[3].
Ketorolac salt (20 and 30 mg/kg; i.p.; two times in a week for 3 weeks) reduces oral carcinogenesis in mice[4].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: New Zealand White rabbits (2.0–2.7 kg), LPS endotoxin-induced ocular inflammation[1]
Dosage: 50 μL ketorolac tromethamine ophthalmic solution 0.4%
Administration: In eyes, twice, 2 hours and 1 hour before LPS challenge
Result: Resulted in a nearly complete inhibition (98.7%) of LPS endotoxin-induced increases in FITC (fluorescein isothiocyanate)-dextran in the anterior chamber, and resulted in a nearly complete inhibition (97.5%) of LPS endotoxin-induced increases in aqueous PGE2 concentrations in the aqueous humor.
Animal Model: Male Wistar rats (400–450 g), spinal cord ischemia model[3]
Dosage: 30 and 60 μg
Administration: Intrathecal injection, 1 h before the ischemia induction for once
Result: Significantly reduced the motor disturbances and improved the survival rate at 60 μg.
Animal Model: BALB/c mice, oral carcinogenesis model[4]
Dosage: 20 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg
Administration: IP injection, two times in a week for 3 weeks
Result: Decreased tumor burden, reduced expression of DDX3 and anti-apoptotic proteins (Bcl-2 and Mcl-1).

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
