Biological Activity of Tolfenamic Acid

DescriptionTolfenamic acid (TA) is one of the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Target: COX-2 Tolfenamic acid is a NSAID. Tolfenamic acid treatment inhibited cell growth and induced apoptosis as measured by caspase activity and bioelectric impedance. Tolfenamic acid induced EGR-1 expression at the transcription level, and analysis of the EGR-1 promoter showed that a putative ETS-binding site, located at ?400 and ?394 bp, was required for activation by tolfenamic acid [1]. Tolfenamic acid preferentially inhibited COX-2, with meloxicam inhibiting COX-2 activity 12 times more effectively than COX-1 activity. Carprofen was only 1.75 times more selective for COX-2 than for COX-1, and ketoprofen was slightly more selective for COX-1 [2].

Rationally Developed Organic Salts of Tolfenamic Acid and Its beta-Alanine Derivatives for Dual Purposes as an Anti-Inflammatory Topical Gel and Anticancer Agent.[Pubmed:28150904]

Chem Asian J. 2017 Apr 4;12(7):792-803.

A new series of primary ammonium monocarboxylate (PAM) salts of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), namely, Tolfenamic Acid (TA), and its beta-alanine derivatives were generated. Nearly 67 % of the salts in the series showed gelling abilities with various solvents, including water (biogenic solvent) and methyl salicylate (typically used for topical gel formulations). Gels were characterized by rheology, electron microscopy, and so forth. Structure-property correlations based on single-crystal and powder XRD data of several gelator and nongelator salts revealed intriguing insights. Studies (in vitro) on an aggressive human breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231) with the l-tyrosine methyl ester salt of TA (S7) revealed that the hydrogelator salt was more effective at killing cancer cells than the mother drug TA (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay); displayed better anti-inflammatory activity compared with that of TA (prostaglandin E2 assay); could be internalized within the cancer cells, as revealed by fluorescence microscopy; and inhibited effectively migration of the cancer cells. Thus, the easily accessible ambidextrous gelator salt S7 can be used for two purposes: as an anti-inflammatory topical gel and as an anticancer agent.

Targeting specificity protein 1 transcription factor and survivin using tolfenamic acid for inhibiting Ewing sarcoma cell growth.[Pubmed:28025760]

Invest New Drugs. 2017 Apr;35(2):158-165.

Transcription factor Specificity protein 1 (Sp1) and its downstream target survivin (inhibitor of apoptosis protein), play major roles in the pathogenesis of various cancers. Ewing Sarcoma (ES) is a common soft tissue/bone tumor in adolescent and young adults. Overexpression of survivin is also linked to the aggressiveness and poor prognosis of ES. Small molecule Tolfenamic Acid (TA) inhibits Sp1 and survivin in cancer cells. In this investigation, we demonstrate a strategy to target Sp1 and survivin using TA and positive control Mithramycin A (Mit) to inhibit ES cell growth. Knock down of Sp1 using small interfering RNA (siRNA) resulted in significant (p < 0.05) inhibition of CHLA-9 and TC-32 cell growth as assessed by CellTiter-Glo assay kit. TA or Mit treatment caused dose/time-dependent inhibition of cell viability, and this inhibition was correlated with a decrease in Sp1 and survivin protein levels in ES cells. Quantitative PCR results showed that Mit treatment decreased the mRNA expression of both survivin and Sp1, whereas TA diminished only survivin but not Sp1. Proteasome inhibitor restored TA-induced inhibition of Sp1 protein expression suggesting that TA might cause proteasome-dependent degradation. Gel shift assay using ES cell nuclear extract and biotinylated Sp1 consensus oligonucleotides confirmed that both TA and Mit decreased DNA-binding activity of Sp1. These results demonstrate that both Mit and TA reduce expression of Sp1 and survivin, disrupt Sp1 DNA-binding and inhibit ES cell proliferation. This investigation suggests that targeting Sp1 and survivin could be an effective strategy for inhibiting ES cell growth.

Drug Repurposing: Tolfenamic Acid Inactivates PrbP, a Transcriptional Accessory Protein in Liberibacter asiaticus.[Pubmed:27803694]

Front Microbiol. 2016 Oct 18;7:1630.

CLIBASIA_01510, PrbP, is a predicted RNA polymerase binding protein in Liberibacter asiaticus. PrbP was found to regulate expression of a small subset of ribosomal genes through interactions with the beta-subunit of the RNA polymerase and a short, specific sequence on the promoter region. Molecular screening assays were performed to identify small molecules that interact with PrbP in vitro. Chemical hits were analyzed for therapeutic efficacy against L. asiaticus via an infected leaf assay, where the transcriptional activity of L. asiaticus was found to decrease significantly after exposure to Tolfenamic Acid. Similarly, Tolfenamic Acid was found to inhibit L. asiaticus infection in highly symptomatic citrus seedlings. Our results indicate that PrbP is an important transcriptional regulator for survival of L. asiaticus in planta, and the chemicals identified by molecular screening assays could be used as a therapeutic treatment for huanglongbing disease.

Tolfenamic acid-induced alterations in genes and pathways in pancreatic cancer cells.[Pubmed:28099934]

Oncotarget. 2017 Feb 28;8(9):14593-14603.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are being tested extensively for their role in the treatment and prevention of several cancers. Typically NSAIDs exhibit anti-tumor activities via modulation of cyclooxygenase (COX)-dependent mechanisms, however, an anti-cancer NSAID Tolfenamic Acid (TA) is believed to work through COX-independent pathways. Results from our laboratory and others have demonstrated the anti-cancer activity of TA in various cancer models including pancreatic cancer. TA has been shown to modulate certain cellular processes including, apoptosis, reactive oxygen species and signaling. In this study, molecular profiling was performed to precisely understand the mode of action of TA. Three pancreatic cancer cell lines, L3.6pl, MIA PaCa-2, and Panc1 were treated with TA (50 muM for 48 h) and the changes in gene expression was evaluated using the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene ST Array platform. Microarray results were further validated using quantitative PCR for seven genes altered by TA treatment in all three cell lines. Functional analysis of differentially expressed genes (2 fold increase or decrease, p < 0.05) using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis software, revealed that TA treatment predominantly affected the genes involved in cell cycle, cell growth and proliferation, and cell death and survival. Promoter analysis of the differentially expressed genes revealed that they are enriched for Sp1 binding sites, suggesting that Sp1 could be a major contributor in mediating the effect of TA. The gene expression studies identified new targets involved in TA's mode of action, while supporting the hypothesis about the association of Sp1 in TA mediated effects in pancreatic cancer.
