indomethacin and Ovarian Neoplasms

indomethacin has been researched along with Ovarian Neoplasms in 11 studies

Indomethacin: A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that inhibits CYCLOOXYGENASE, which is necessary for the formation of PROSTAGLANDINS and other AUTACOIDS. It also inhibits the motility of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES.
indometacin : A member of the class of indole-3-acetic acids that is indole-3-acetic acid in which the indole ring is substituted at positions 1, 2 and 5 by p-chlorobenzoyl, methyl, and methoxy groups, respectively. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, it is used in the treatment of musculoskeletal and joint disorders including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, bursitis and tendinitis.

Ovarian Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer of the OVARY. These neoplasms can be benign or malignant. They are classified according to the tissue of origin, such as the surface EPITHELIUM, the stromal endocrine cells, and the totipotent GERM CELLS.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Thus our data suggest that residual ovarian cancer is accompanied by increased production of PG1(2) and TxA2, and that prostaglandins have no role in the acute side effects of cancer chemotherapy."2.65Prostacyclin and thromboxane in ovarian cancer: effect of cytostatics and prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors. ( Kauppila, A; Viinikka, L; Ylikorkala, O, 1983)
"In human ovarian cancer cell lines the cyclooxygenase (COX) metabolite Prostaglandin E2 was identified as negative regulator of chemokine secretion, whereas COX inhibition by indomethacin significantly upregulated CXCL9 and CXCL10."1.43CXCL9 and CXCL10 predict survival and are regulated by cyclooxygenase inhibition in advanced serous ovarian cancer. ( Avril, S; Bronger, H; Delbridge, C; Dorn, J; Kiechle, M; Reuning, U; Schmalfeldt, B; Schmitt, M; Singer, J; Windmüller, C; Zech, D, 2016)
" We demonstrate that a reduction of cyclooxygenase 2 gene dosage rescued the ovarian aging phenotype of the Wv mice, whereas homozygous deletion was accompanied by a compensatory increase in ovarian cyclooxygenase 1 expression and prostaglandin E(2) synthesis."1.34A reduction of cyclooxygenase 2 gene dosage counters the ovarian morphological aging and tumor phenotype in Wv mice. ( Cai, KQ; Hamilton, TC; Klein-Szanto, A; Smedberg, JL; Smith, ER; Xu, XX; Yang, WL, 2007)
"Three cases of acute renal insufficiency in pregnant women who were treated with indomethacin for premature labor are reported."1.29Acute maternal renal insufficiency in premature labor treated with indomethacin. ( Boyd, EL; Nageotte, MP; Powers, DR; Steiger, RM; Towers, CV, 1993)
