Structure–activity relationship studies of flavonoids as potent inhibitors of human platelet 12-hLO, reticulocyte 15-hLO-1, and prostate epithelial 15-hLO-2
摘要:
Human lipoxygenase (hLO) isozymes have been implicated in a number of disease states and have attracted much attention with respect to their inhibition. One class of inhibitors, the flavonoids, have been shown to be potent lipoxygenase inhibitors but their study has been restricted to those compounds found in nature, which have limited structural variability. We have therefore carried out a comprehensive study to determine the structural requirements for flavonoid potency and selectivity against platelet 12-hLO, reticulocyte 15-hLO-1, and prostate epithelial 15-hLO-2. We conclude from this study that catechols are essential for high potency, that isoflavones and isoflavanones tend to select against 12-hLO, that isoflavans tend to select against 15-hLO-1, but few flavonoids target 15-hLO-2.

Synthesis, docking study and relaxant effect of 2-alkyl and 2-naphthylchromones on rat aorta and guinea-pig trachea through phosphodiesterase inhibition
heated at reflux temperature, yielding the chromones 11a–11h. Evaluation of the vasorelaxant effect of 4, 11a–11h on rat aorta demonstrated that potency decreases with branched alkyl groups. Whereas the EC50 of compound 11d (substituted by an n-hexyl group) was 8.64 ± 0.39 μM, that of 11f (substituted by an isobutyl group) was 14.58 ± 0.64 μM. Contrarily, the effectiveness of the compound is directly
