Indobufen

SKU: orb1308195

Description

Indobufen (Ibustrin) is a reversible, small-molecule inhibitor of platelet cyclooxygenase (COX) that suppresses thromboxane A2 synthesis and platelet aggregation. It also downregulates monocyte tissue factor expression, making it a useful research tool for studying thrombosis and inflammation in both in vitro and in vivo models.

Bioactivity

• In Vitro:
  Indobufen suppresses TxA2 but not PGE2 synthesis in LPS-stimulated monocytes. Indobufen causes the extent of ERK1/2 phosphorylation, whereas the levels of phosphorylated p38 are unaltered. Indobufen does not affect both Cox-1 and Cox-2 protein, whereas Indobufen reduces TxB2 levels.
