A series of azaisoflavones were synthesized and their biological activities were evaluated for nitric oxide (NO) production and inducible NO synthase (iNOS) expression in BV-2 microglia cell lines. Among these compounds, compound 8d was the most potent with IC50 7.83 mu M for inhibition of NO production. Also, compound 8d inhibited expression of iNOS in LPS-induced BV2 cells. This result suggests that compound 8d inhibited the production of NO by suppressing the expression of iNOS. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
