    Product Description

    N-(2-phenylethyl)-indomethacin amide (N-2PIA) is one of several aromatic amides of indomethacin reported to be potent and selective reversible inhibitors of COX-2.1 N-2PIA inhibits human recombinant and ovine COX-2 with IC50 values of 0.06 and 0.125 µM, respectively.1,2 It is over 400 times less potent as an inhibitor of human recombinant and ovine COX-1. N-2PIA shows anti-inflammatory, antiangiogenic, and cancer chemopreventive activity in various experimental models.1

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
