Nimesulide, a preferential cyclooxygenase 2 inhibitor, suppresses peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor induction of cyclooxygenase 2 gene expression in human synovial fibroblasts: Evidence for receptor antagonism

Objective To characterize the inhibitory effects of therapeutic concentrations of the nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug nimesulide (NIM) on peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-induced cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) gene expression in human synovial fibroblasts (HSFs) from patients with oste...
