Abstract
Few selective cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) inhibitors have been described up to now, although recent studies underlined the involvement of COX-1 in the carcinogenesis, pathogenesis of neuroinflammation, cardiovascular diseases and pain. Among the known COX-1 inhibitors none proved to be a good drug candidate, with the exception of mofezolac, that is clinically used as an analgesic drug. New selective inhibitors were very often discovered as a minor achievement during SAR investigations to discover selective COX-2 inhibitors (COXIBs). After a recognition of the new COX-1 inhibitors synthesized in the last five years, it was attempted to draw, for each chemical class, a structure which might highlight the determinant molecular features able to switch the selectivity towards the COX-1 isoform. Overall, this review could constitute a tool to a better design of novel selective COX-1 inhibitors, to be used in a disease theranostic approach targeting COX-1.
Keywords: Cyclooxygenase (COX)-1, COX-2, structure-activity relationship(SAR), diarylheterocycles, benzanilides, arylpropanoic acids, stilbenes, NSAIDs.

Chalcogen-modified nucleic acid analogues
Chalcogen-modified nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides have been of great interest to scientific research for many years. The replacement of oxygen in the nucleobase, sugar or phosphate backbone by chalcogen atoms (sulfur, selenium, tellurium) gives these biomolecules unique properties resulting from their altered physical and chemical properties. The continuing interest in ...read more
