The invention describes novel cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) selective inhibitors and novel compositions comprising at least one cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) selective inhibitor, and, optionally, at least one compound that donates, transfers or releases nitric oxide, stimulates endogenous synthesis of nitric oxide, elevates endogenous levels of endothelium-derived relaxing factor or is a substrate for nitric oxide synthase, and/or at least one therapeutic agent. The invention also provides novel kits comprising at least one COX-2 selective inhibitor, optionally nitrosated and/or nitrosylated, and, optionally, at least one nitric oxide donor, and/or, optionally, at least one therapeutic agent. The novel cyclooxygenase 2 selective inhibitors of the invention can be optionally nitrosated and/or nitrosylated. The invention also provides methods for treating inflammation, pain and fever; for treating and/or improving the gastrointestinal properties of COX-2 selective inhibitors; for facilitating wound healing; for treating and/or preventing renal and/or respiratory toxicity; for treating and/or preventing other disorders resulting from elevated levels of cyclooxygenase-2; and for improving the cardiovascular profile of COX-2 selective inhibitors.
该发明描述了新颖的环氧合酶2(COX-2)选择性抑制剂以及至少包含一种环氧合酶2(COX-2)选择性抑制剂的新型组合物,以及可选地至少包含一种捐赠、转移或释放一氧化氮的化合物,刺激内源性一氧化氮的合成,提高内源性的内皮衍生性松弛因子的水平或是一氧化氮合酶的底物,和/或至少一种治疗剂。该发明还提供了新型工具包,其中包括至少一种COX-2选择性抑制剂,可选地硝化和/或硝酰化,以及可选地至少一种一氧化氮供体和/或可选地至少一种治疗剂。该发明的新型环氧合酶2选择性抑制剂可以可选地硝化和/或硝酰化。该发明还提供了治疗炎症、疼痛和发热的方法;用于治疗和/或改善COX-2选择性抑制剂的胃肠道特性;促进伤口愈合的方法;用于治疗和/或预防肾脏和/或呼吸系统毒性的方法;用于治疗和/或预防由于环氧合酶2水平升高而导致的其他疾病的方法;以及用于改善COX-2选择性抑制剂的心血管特性的方法。
