Cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors constrict the fetal lamb ductus arteriosus both in vitro and in vivo. Am J Physiol Regulatory Integrative Comp Physiol 278: R1496– R1505, 2000.—Nonselective cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors are potent tocolytic agents; however, they also have adverse fetal effects such as constriction of the fetal ductus arteriosus. Recently, selective COX-2 inhibitors have been used in the management of preterm labor in the hope of avoiding fetal complications. However, both COX-1 and -2 are expressed by cells of the ductus arteriosus. We used fetal lambs (0.88 gestation) to assess the ability of selective COX-2 inhibitors celecoxib and NS398 to affect the ductus arteriosus. Both selective COX-2 inhibitors decreased PGE2 and 6ketoPGF1a production in vitro; both inhibitors constricted the isolated ductus in vitro. The nonselective COX-1/COX-2 inhibitor indomethacin produced a further reduction in PG release and an additional increase in ductus tension in vitro. We used a prodrug of celecoxib to achieve 1.4 6 0.6 μg/ml, mean 6 standard deviation, of the active drug in vivo. This concentration of celecoxib produced both an increase in pressure gradient and resistance across the ductus; celecoxib also decreased fetal plasma concentrations of PGE2 and 6ketoPGF1a. Indomethacin (0.7 6 0.2 μg/ml) produced a significantly greater fall in ductus blood flow than celecoxib and tended to have a greater effect on ductus resistence in vivo. We conclude that caution should be used when recommending COX-2 inhibitors for use in pregnant women, because COX-2 appears to play a significant role in maintaining patency of the fetal ductus arteriosus.
