Naproxcinod
Naproxcinod (Nitronaproxen) is the first in class of cyclooxygenase (COX)-inhibiting nitric oxide donators (CINODs). Naproxcinod shows analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, it can be used for the research of osteoarthritis and inflammation.

Biological Activity
Naproxcinod (1-30 μM; 15 min) concentration-dependently increases cGMP level up to 27-fold over basal level[1]. Naproxcinod (1-100 μM; 8 h) concentration-dependently increases HO-1 mRNA in endothelial cells[2].
