Meloxicam (Parocin; Movicox; Meloxicamum; Mobic; Mobicox; reumoxicam; Movalis; Uticox), an approved medication used to treat pain and inflammation in rheumatic arthritis and osteoarthritis, is a potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which acts as a selective COX inhibitor with IC50s of 0.49 µM and 36.6 µM for COX-2 and COX-1, respectively. I is used to relieve pain and fever effects. Studies suggest that Meloxicam is Cox-2 preferential, therefore it will probably not display a lower gastrointestinal toxicity than non-selective anti-inflammatory agents. This compound has been shown to also inhibit prostanoid synthesis in inflammatory cells. It shows potent anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic effects with low gastrointestinal toxicity in animal models.
ln Vitro |
Compound 5, meloxicam, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that suppresses COX activity. Its IC50 values for COX-2 and COX-1 are 0.49 µM and 36.6 µM, respectively[1]. At 0.25–25 µg/mL, meloxicam does not exhibit any cytotoxicity on MDCK or CF41.Mg tumor cells, but it suppresses COX+ tumor cells. Additionally, doxorubicin and meloxicam do not work synergistically on CF41.Mg cells. Meloxicam (0.25 µg/mL) inhibits the migration and invasion of CF41.Mg cells, reduces the production of MMP-2, and increases β-catenin phophorylation in CF41.Mg cells; however, it has no effect on apoptosis in CF41.Mg cells[2].

ln Vivo |
In mice, paw liking time is considerably reduced by meloxicam (10 mg/kg) alone or in combination with rutin on the first day by 55% and 49%, respectively, compared to the formalin-treated group; however, the combination does not significantly reduce time on the third day. Additionally, meloxicam alone or in combination with rutin reduces MDA contents, activates liver SOD activities, lowers relative liver weights, inhibits IL-1β content, and considerably lowers the number of positive caspase-3 immunoreactive cells in mice[3].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.11 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 1 mg/mL (2.85 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 10.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL of Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL of normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Cell viability following incubation with different concentrations of meloxicam and/or doxorubicin. (A) CF41.Mg and (B) MDCK cells were incubated for 24 and 48 h with meloxicam (0–25 µg/ml). The percentage of viable cells was determined by MTS assay. Control cells were treated with DMSO alone. (C) Viability of CF41.Mg cells incubated for 24 and 48 h with meloxicam (0–25 µg/ml) and 500 ng/ml doxorubicin. (D) CF41.Mg cells were incubated with meloxicam (0–1 µg/ml) and 24 h later 500 ng/ml doxorubicin was added. Cell viability was measured at 24 and 48 h. Values are presented as the mean ± standard deviation of ≥3 independent experiments performed in triplicate. *P<0.05. td> |
Meloxicam (0.25 µg/ml) has no effect on CF41.Mg cell apoptosis. Doxorubicin alone (500 ng/ml) was used as a positive control. A total of 3 independent experiments were performed and values are presented as the mean ± standard deviation. Flow cytometry plots and analysis of the data are illustrated. *P<0.05 vs. the control group. td> |
