NCX 4040 is a nitric oxide-donating form of aspirin.
NCX 4040 is a nitric oxide-donating form of aspirin. NCX 4040 inhibits cyclooxygenase activity and releases NO, which can down-regulate COX2 expression and reduce the levels of superoxide accumulation. In the human monocytic cell line THP1, the compound inhibits PGE2 production and cytokine expression, and appears to stabilize IkB by inhibiting proteasome function. NCX 4040 has been shown to induce apoptosis in several tumor cell lines.

Despite numerous studies aimed at verifying the antitumor activity of nitric oxide-releasing nonsteroidal antiflammatory drugs (NO-NSAIDs), little is known about the molecular targets responsible for their antineoplastic properties. In the present study, we investigated the mechanisms underlying the cytotoxicity of

BACKGROUND: Nitric oxide-releasing nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NO-NSAIDs) are reported to be safer than NSAIDs because of their lower gastric toxicity. We compared the effect of a novel NO-releasing derivate, NCX 4040, with that of aspirin and its denitrated analog, NCX
The respective ischemic and bleeding risks of early aspirin discontinuation following an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain uncertain. We performed a prospero-registered review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing a P2Y12 inhibitor-based single antiplatelet strategy
Although regular aspirin use has been shown to lower the risk of colorectal cancer, its efficacy against lung cancer is weak or inconsistent. Moreover, aspirin use increases the risk of ulcers and stomach bleeding. In this study, we determined the
Recent studies suggest that nitric oxide donors capable of manipulating nitric oxide-mediated signaling in bacteria could induce dispersal of biofilms. Encased in extracellular polymeric substances, human and plant pathogens within biofilms are significantly more resistant to sanitizers. This is particularly
