Abstract: This review discusses the rational for further studies of COX-2 inhibitors-NO releaser hybrids (NO-Coxibs) in the pharmacological treatment of the airway inflammation in Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Our research group developed several classes of NO-Coxibs for the pharmacological treatment of arthritis, and among them several compounds showed an outstanding in vivo efficacy and good pharmacokinetic properties. The good antiinflammatory properties displayed by these compounds during the previous screening could, by itself, suggest appropriate candidates for further testing in CF.
