| Bioactivity | Ketoprofen (RP-19583) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent. Ketoprofen can inhibits the activity of cyclooxygenase with IC50 values of 2 nM (COX-1) and 26 nM (COX-2). which is potential in the research of inflammation, immunology, and metabolic disease such as obesity[1][2][3]. | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | Ketoprofen inhibits COX in LPS-stimulated monocytes isolated from human blood, with IC50 values of 2 nM (COX-1) and 26 nM (COX-2)[1].Ketoprofen (2.5 mg /mL, 3-24h) decreases the mRNA level of immune factors (TNFα, IL-8, SAA and COX-2) and PTGES in LPS-stimulated bovine mammary epithelial cells[3].

| In Vivo | Ketoprofen (Oral administration, 10 mg/kg, three times a week for 10 weeks, HFD-induced obese C57BL/6 mice) decreases in relative body weight (15.41%), the iWAT mass (approximately 41%), and leptin (58.68%) and resistin (12.88%)[2].Ketoprofen (50 mg/kg, LPS-treated dairy cows) lowers the increase of somatic cell count (SCC), serum albumin (SA), IgG and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in milk induced by LPS[3].
