Structural Optimization and Biological Evaluation of 2-Substituted 5-Hydroxyindole-3-carboxylates as Potent Inhibitors of Human 5-Lipoxygenase
摘要:
Pharmacological suppression of leukotriene biosynthesis by inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) is a strategy to intervene with inflammatory and allergic disorders. We recently presented 2-amino-5-hydroxy-1H-indoles as efficient 5-LO inhibitors in cell-based and cell-free assays. Structural optimization led to novel benzo[g]indole-3-carboxylates exemplified by ethyl 2-(3-chlorobenzyl)-5-hydroxy-1H-benzo[g]indole-3-carboxylate (compound 11a), which inhibits 5-LO activity in human neutrophils and recombinant human 5-LO with IC50 values of 0.23 and 0.086 mu M, respectively. Notably, 11a efficiently blocks 5-LO product formation in human whole blood assays (IC50 = 0.83-1.6 mu M) and significantly prevented leukotriene B-4 production in pleural exudates of carrageenan-treated rats, associated with reduced severity of pleurisy. Together, on the basis of their high potency against 5-LO and the marked efficacy in biological systems, these novel and straightforward benzo[g]indole-3-carboxylates may have potential as anti-inflammatory therapeutics.

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft die Verwendung von lndol-3-carbonsäureestern und seiner Derivate zur Hemmung der induzierbaren mikrosomalen Prostaglandin E2 Synthase-1 und/oder zur Hemmung der 5-Lipoxygenase. Insbesondere betrifft die Erfindung die Verwendung von Derivaten des 3-Carboxy-aryl[g]indols, vor allem von 2-Aryl- und 2-Arylalkyl-Aryl[g]indol-3-carbonsäureestern sowie deren strukturellen Abkömmlingen zur Hemmung der induzierbaren mikrosomalen Prostaglandin E2 Synthase-1 und / oder zur Hemmung der 5-Lipoxygenase. Ferner betrifft die Erfindung die Verwendung von lndol-3-carbonsäureestern zur Herstellung eines Arzneimittels zur Behandlung von PGE2- und / oder 5-LO-vermittelter Erkrankungen und krankhafter Zustände, insbesondere von entzündlichen chronischen Entzündungen wie rheumatoide Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Erkrankungen des kardiovaskulären Systems, Asthma, allergische Rhinitis, Multiple Sklerose, entzündliche Hauterkrankungen, Osteoporose und Krebs, Schmerz und Fieber, bei denen PGE2 und / oder 5-LO Produkte eine Rolle spielen.
