Description：Bromfenac sodium hydrate (Bromfenac monosodium salt sesquihydrate) is a potent and orally active inhibitor of COX, with IC50s of 5.56 and 7.45 nM for COX-1 and COX-2, respectively. Bromfenac sodium hydrate can be used in ocular inflammation research.

In Vitro：Bromfenac (0-80 μg/mL; 24 h) can inhibit transforming growth factor-β2-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition in HLEC-B3 in a concentration-dependent manner[2]. Bromfenac (80 μg/Ml; 48 h) inhibits transforming growth factor-β2-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition in human anterior capsules[2].

In Vivo：Bromfenac (0.0032-3.16%; 100 or 200 μL; rubbed onto the backs) produces significant anti-inflammatory activity at concentrations as low as 0.1% (4 h pretreatment time) or 0.32% (18h pretreatment time) in rats[3]. Bromfenac (0.032-3.16%; 100 μL; rubbed onto the paws) produces dose-related anti-inflammatory activity in rats[3]. Bromfenac (0.032-1.0%; 50 μL) is 26 times more potent than indomethacin in blocking the erythema when applied directly onto the skin area exposed to UV light in guinea pigs[3]. Bromfenac (0.0032-0.1%; 50μL; rubbed onto the uninjected paw for 4 h per day and 5 days per week) produces a dose and time dependent reduction in the paw volume of both hind limbs in rats[3]. Bromfenac (0.32%; 50μL; rubbed onto the abdomen) produces significant blockade of abdominal constriction to ACh challenge in mice[3]. Bromfenac (eyedrop instillation; 1 μL (0.09%) per eye; twice-daily; 4 w) partially reduces corneal staining, and becomes so more slowly by the 4-week time point[4].

IC50 & Target：COX-1 5.56 nM (IC50) COX-2 7.45 nM (IC50)
