Synthesis and activity of a new class of pathway-selective estrogen receptor ligands: Hydroxybenzoyl-3,4-dihydroquinoxalin-2(1H)-ones
摘要:
The anti-inflammatory activity of non-selective estrogens has been attributed to their ability to antagonize the activity of nuclear factor KB (NF-kappa B), a known mediator of inflammatory responses. Here we report the identification of a potent new class of pathway-selective ER ligands that selectively antagonize NF-kappa B functional activity, while exhibiting a lack of classical estrogenic effect.
