and microsomal prostaglandin E synthase 1 (mPGES-1), two key enzymes highly involved in the inflammatory event, in order to discover new promising anti-inflammatory agents with better pharmacological profiles. This led us to the discovery of a promising inhibitor (4e) of prostanoid production acting by in vitro and in vivo selective modulation of microsomal prostaglandin E synthase 1 expression.
作为我们药物开发工作的一部分,最近我们澄清了石油双孢菌素M(PM)灭活磷脂酶A2(PLA2)的分子基础,该物质是海洋酯类萜烯家族的一种有趣的代谢产物,在其结构结构中包含γ-羟基丁烯内酯部分和显示有效的抗炎活性。为了扩大结构多样性并简化母体化合物的关键合成特征,我们决定开发一种基于密集功能化的γ-羟基丁烯内酯骨架的选定文库。测试了合成产物的抑制PLA2酶的能力,以及调节诱导性环氧合酶2(COX-2)和微粒体前列腺素E合酶1(mPGES-1)的表达的能力,这两种酶是与炎症事件高度相关的,为了发现具有更好药理作用的新的有希望的抗炎药。这导致我们发现了一种有前途的前列腺素生成抑制剂(4e),该抑制剂通过体外和体内选择性调节微粒体前列腺素E合酶1表达发挥作用。
