1 In this study, human colorectal carcinoma HCT-116 cells were treated with the Cox-1 specific inhibitor SC-560 and the Cox-2 specific inhibitor SC-58125 to evaluate their ability to induce apoptosis, inhibit cell proliferation, inhibit growth on soft agar and modulate gene expression. SC 560 mitochondrially encoded cytochrome c oxidase I Homo sapiens
2 The Cox-1 specific inhibitor, SC-560 significantly induced apoptosis and inhibited the growth of HCT-116 cells on soft agar, an in vitro assay for tumorigenicity. SC 560 mitochondrially encoded cytochrome c oxidase I Homo sapiens
3 In conclusion, this is the first report to suggest that like sulindac sulfide, the Cox-1 specific inhibitor SC-560 appears to elicit chemo-preventative activity by altering gene expression, while the chemo-preventative effects of SC-58125 are complex and probably work through these and other mechanisms, such as the inhibition of Cox-2. SC 560 mitochondrially encoded cytochrome c oxidase I Homo sapiens
