Leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) is a potent pro-inflammatory mediator that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple diseases, including psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis and asthma. As a method to decrease the level of LTB(4) and possibly identify novel treatments, inhibitors of the LTB(4) biosynthetic enzyme, leukotriene A(4) hydrolase (LTA(4)-h), have been explored. Here
白三烯B(4)(LTB(4))是一种有效的促炎介质,已与多种疾病的发病机制有关,包括牛皮癣,炎症性肠病,多发性硬化症和哮喘。作为降低LTB(4)水平并可能确定新疗法的方法,已探索了LTB(4)生物合成酶白三烯A(4)水解酶(LTA(4)-h)的抑制剂。在这里,我们从相应的甘氨酰胺2开始,描述了一种有效的LTA(4)-h抑制剂-谷氨酸4f的芳基酰胺的发现。然后介绍了4f的类似物,重点研究在全血中既有活性又稳定的化合物。这项工作最终确定了符合这些标准的氨基醇12a和氨基酯6b。
