1 We designed to investigate the inhibitory effect of isatin derivatives on lipopolysaccharide/interferon-gamma-induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) proteins, production of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha), and their capacity to scavenge NO. Isatin nitric oxide synthase 2, inducible Mus musculus
2 We designed to investigate the inhibitory effect of isatin derivatives on lipopolysaccharide/interferon-gamma-induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) proteins, production of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), nitric oxide (NO), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha), and their capacity to scavenge NO. Isatin nitric oxide synthase 2, inducible Mus musculus
3 Isatins inhibit TNF-alpha production and iNOS and COX-2 protein expression resulting on reduced levels of NO and PGE(2). Isatin nitric oxide synthase 2, inducible Mus musculus
4 Our results indicate isatin and it derivatives as inhibitors of iNOS and COX-2 enzymes, which might be used as anti-inflammatory and antitumoral agents. Isatin nitric oxide synthase 2, inducible Mus musculus
