Overview

Randomized trial evaluates potent COX inhibition in vitro, suggesting a pathway for drug design.

Key Points

  • The aim is to develop selective COX inhibitors using rationally designed indole-oxadiazole derivatives.
  • Synthesized novel indole-oxadiazole derivatives with specific substitutions.
  • Evaluated in vitro COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition.
  • Conducted molecular docking and dynamics simulations to assess binding interactions.
  • IO-2 achieved IC50 of 0.198 µM for COX-1 and 0.158 µM for COX-2, demonstrating balanced activity.
  • IO-13 showed strong COX-1 inhibition with an IC50 of 0.175 µM.
  • Celecoxib, a reference, had an IC50 of 0.119 µM for COX-2, supporting the efficacy of new compounds.
