Effects of Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitors on Fracture Healing
Introduction: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) are among the most widely prescribed drugs worldwide. However, there have been theoretical concerns about the effect of NSAIDs on bone metabolism and healing. These concerns have resurfaced with the recent discover of the Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) isoform which is involved in inflammation and the development of COX-2 specific drugs. The...
متن کاملMandibular Fracture Healing in Rats
Purpose: To establish a rat mandibular fracture model and investigate the shortand long-term effects of recombinant parathyroid hormone (PTH 1-34) on mandibular fracture healing in rats. Materials and Methods: A controlled unilateral mandibular fracture was created surgically in 29 male Sprague-Dawley rats and then stabilized using an external fixation device. The rats were divided into 2 group...
متن کاملRole of cyclooxygenase-2 in the healing of gastric ulcers in rats.
To elucidate the role of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in ulcer healing, we compared the effects of NS-398 (COX-2-selective inhibitor) and indomethacin (nonselective COX inhibitor) on the healing of acetic acid-induced gastric ulcers in rats. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production was elevated in ulcerated tissue, but remained unaffected in intact tissue. COX-2 mRNA was only detected in the ulcerated tiss...
متن کاملEffects of pentoxifylline and alendronate on fracture healing in ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis in rats
Osteoporosis is determined by decreased bone strength that increases the threat of fractures. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of pentoxifylline (PTX) and alendronate (ALN), on the stereological parameters, and gene expression in callus of fracture in an experimental rat model of ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis (OVX). The OVX was induced in 90 female rats. Fourteen weeks later...
متن کاملInduction of cyclooxygenase 2 in gastric mucosal lesions and its inhibition by the specific antagonist delays healing in mice.
BACKGROUND & AIMS The role of two forms of cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) in gastric mucosal lesions is not well understood. The regulation of both forms of COX and the effect of COX-2 on the repair process of gastric mucosal lesions in mice were investigated. METHODS Gastric mucosal erosions and ulcers were induced experimentally in mice. The level of COX messenger RNA (mRNA) was determine...
