Product Description
(S)-Ketorolac is a nonsteroidal anti~inflammatory drug. (S)-Ketorolac effectively inhibits COX1 and COX2 enzyme activities.
(S)-Ketorolac [(-)-Ketorolac] (CAS#: 66635-92-5) is the S-enantiomer of ketorolac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used for the short-term management of moderate to severe pain. The compound has a molecular formula of C15H13NO3 and a molecular weight of approximately 255.27. Ketorolac is a racemic mixture of R- and S-enantiomers, with the S-enantiomer being the pharmacologically active form. (S)-Ketorolac exerts its analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, thereby reducing the production of prostaglandins. The S-enantiomer is more potent than the R-enantiomer and is responsible for the therapeutic effects of ketorolac.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
(S)-Ketorolac targets cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, specifically COX-1 and COX-2, which are key enzymes in the prostaglandin synthesis pathway. By inhibiting COX enzymes, the compound reduces the production of prostaglandins, which are mediators of pain, inflammation, and fever. The S-enantiomer is the pharmacologically active form of ketorolac and is more potent than the R-enantiomer. The compound's analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects are primarily mediated through COX-2 inhibition, while COX-1 inhibition contributes to its gastrointestinal and renal side effects.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies have demonstrated that (S)-Ketorolac is a potent inhibitor of COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, with the S-enantiomer being more active than the R-enantiomer. The compound inhibits prostaglandin synthesis in various in vitro systems, including isolated enzyme preparations and cell-based assays. The S-enantiomer's potency and selectivity for COX enzymes have been characterized in structure-activity relationship studies. These in vitro activities form the basis for the compound's analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies have demonstrated that (S)-Ketorolac is effective in reducing pain and inflammation in various animal models and clinical settings. The compound is used for the short-term management of moderate to severe pain, including postoperative pain, musculoskeletal pain, and renal colic. Ketorolac is available in oral, intravenous, and intramuscular formulations. The S-enantiomer is responsible for the therapeutic effects of ketorolac, while the R-enantiomer has little or no analgesic activity.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro COX inhibition assay for (S)-Ketorolac typically involves measuring the inhibition of COX-1 and COX-2 activity using purified enzyme preparations or cell-based assays. In these assays, the compound is incubated with the enzyme and a substrate, and the production of prostaglandins is measured. The IC50 values for COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition are calculated from dose-response curves. These assays are standard for characterizing the activity of NSAIDs.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for (S)-Ketorolac are conducted using various cell types, including macrophages, fibroblasts, and other cells that produce prostaglandins. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of the compound and stimulated with inflammatory agents such as LPS. Prostaglandin production is measured using ELISA or other immunoassays. The compound's ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis is assessed by comparing prostaglandin levels in treated and untreated cells. These cell-based assays confirm the compound's anti-inflammatory activity.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for (S)-Ketorolac are conducted in rodent models of pain and inflammation. The compound is administered orally or by injection, and its analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects are assessed using standard models such as the carrageenan-induced paw edema model, the formalin test, and the hot plate test. The compound's effects on prostaglandin levels in tissues are also measured. These studies confirm the compound's in vivo efficacy and support its clinical use as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
(S)-Ketorolac has a molecular weight of approximately 255.27 and a molecular formula of C15H13NO3. The compound is administered orally, intravenously, or intramuscularly. Ketorolac is rapidly absorbed after oral administration, with a bioavailability of approximately 80-100%. The time to peak plasma concentration is about 30-60 minutes after oral dosing. The compound is metabolized in the liver and excreted primarily in urine. The elimination half-life is approximately 4-6 hours. Ketorolac is highly protein-bound (>99%) and has a volume of distribution of approximately 0.2-0.3 L/kg.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The most common adverse effects of Ketorolac include gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea, dyspepsia, and gastrointestinal bleeding. The compound can also cause renal impairment, especially in patients with pre-existing renal disease or volume depletion. Ketorolac is contraindicated in patients with active peptic ulcer disease, recent gastrointestinal bleeding, or hypersensitivity to NSAIDs. The compound should be used with caution in elderly patients and those with cardiovascular risk factors. Ketorolac is approved for short-term use only (up to 5 days) due to the risk of adverse effects.

Additional Infomation
(S)-Ketororic acid is a 5-benzoyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizin-1-carboxylic acid with an S configuration. (S)-Ketororic acid is a COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitor, and both enantiomers have analgesic effects. Racemic ketororic acid (abbreviated as ketororic acid) is mainly used in the form of tromethamine salt and is a potent analgesic used for short-term relief of postoperative pain. It can also be used in eye drops to relieve itchy eyes caused by seasonal allergic conjunctivitis. It has analgesic, cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor, cyclooxygenase 1 inhibitor, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) effects. It is the enantiomer of (R)-ketororic acid.
