Nitroaspirin
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Nitroaspirin (NCX 4016) is an orally active ARG1 and NOS2 inhibitor. Nitroaspirin reduces ARG1 enzyme activity through a STAT6-mediated signaling pathway and feedback-inhibits the catalytic activity of NOS2 in a manner dependent on the NO-releasing group. Nitroaspirin continuously releases intracellular NO, thereby inducing redox-dependent loss of cell viability. Nitroaspirin also inhibits COX (IC50 of 68 μM for oCOX-1), exerting antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory effects, and effectively inhibits the proliferation of Cisplatin (HY-17394)-resistant human ovarian cancer cells. Nitroaspirin is useful for research on colon cancer, breast cancer, and cisplatin-resistant human ovarian cancer.

In Vitro
Nitroaspirin (100-500 μM; 2 h) induces dose-dependent actin cytoskeletal rearrangement in BLMVECs after 2 h of exposure, including actin stress fiber formation and the generation of paracellular gaps[2].
Nitroaspirin (25-100 μM; 10 h) inhibits in vitro angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and bovine lung microvascular endothelial cells (BLMVECs) in a dose-dependent manner, achieving near-complete inhibition after exposure at 100 μM for 10 h[2].
NCX 4016 (1-24 h) inhibits TxB2 (COX-1) generation in human whole blood in a time-dependent manner, with an IC50 range of 0.4-10.22 μM[3].
NCX 4016 (300 μM; 15 min pre-incubation) inhibits LPS (HY-D1056)-induced COX-2 activity in human whole blood monocytes[3].

Cell Line:bovine lung microvascular endothelial cells (BLMVECs)
-
Concentration:50, 100, 500 μM; 100 μM
-
Incubation Time:1, 2, 3 h (100 μM); 2 h (50, 100, 500 μM)
-
Result:Induced a dose-dependent loss of cell viability: caused a 28% loss at 50 μM, 67% loss at 100 μM, and 70% loss at 500 μM relative to vehicle-treated controls after 2 h.
Caused a 19% loss of viability at 100 μM after 1 h, a 72% loss after 2 h, and a 74% loss after 3 h, with significantly greater viability loss at 2 and 3 h compared to 1 h.

-
Concentration:100 μM
-
Incubation Time:2 h (preceded by 5 mM NAC pretreatment for 2 h)
-
Result:Caused a significant loss of cell viability, which was completely attenuated by pretreatment with 5 mM NAC.
Resulted in viability slightly higher (12% increase) than vehicle-treated controls in NAC-pretreated cells.

Cell Line:bovine lung microvascular endothelial cells (BLMVECs)
-
Concentration:100, 500 μM
-
Incubation Time:2 h

Animal Model:BALB/c (8 weeks old)[1]
-
Dosage:6.25 mg/kg; 12.5 mg/kg; 25 mg/kg; 50 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.; twice daily; 9 days
-
Result:Restored compromised alloreactive CTL responses in tumor-bearing mice at 12.5, 25, and 50 mg/kg, with cytotoxicity levels approaching those of tumor-free mice; showed minimal activity at 6.25 mg/kg.
Reduced ARG activity in CD11b+ splenocytes from tumor-bearing mice from ~40 mU/106 cells to ~5 mU/106 cells, equivalent to tumor-free mice.
Reduced NOS activity in CD11b+ splenocytes from tumor-bearing mice from ~25 μM NO2-/NO3- to ~5 μM NO2-/NO3-, equivalent to tumor-free mice.
Completely abrogated intratumoral peroxynitrite production, as evidenced by the near disappearance of nitrotyrosine staining in tumor sections.
Reduced intratumoral CD11b+Gr-1+ myeloid suppressor cell content by ~41% (from 58.5 to 34.57 cells per ×400 field).
Caused only slight tumor growth retardation, with no significant difference in survival rates after treatment cessation.
