Application

Human endothelial cells, HMEC-1 were treated with Sulindac sulfide and the effect on cell survival was studies by MTT assay.[1]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sulindac sulfide is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory compound with a preference for COX-1; it is an inhibitor of Ras activation of Raf-1. It impairs nucleotide exchange on Ras by CDC25 and accelerates Ras hydrolysis of GTP by p120GAP. It is an active metabolite of sulindac. It is also shown to inhibit growth and induce apoptosis in human prostate cancer cells through a COX-1 and COX-2 independent mechanism. Sulindac sulfide is an analgesic that has antiproliferative and apoptotic effects. It inhibits the expression and activity of cyclooxygenase-2 in human colon cancer cells[2][3] and reduces tumor burden in adenomatous polyposis patients.[4]

γ-Secretase is a multisubunit membrane protein complex containing presenilin (PS1) as a catalytic subunit. Familial Alzheimer disease (FAD) mutations within PS1 were analyzed in yeast cells artificially expressing membrane-bound substrate, amyloid precursor protein, or Notch fused to Gal4 transcriptional activator.
