The antinociceptive effects produced by intraperitoneal administration of a novel synthetic chalcone, 3-(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-(5-methylfuran-2-yl)prop-2-en-1-one (DMFP), were investigated in several mouse models of induced nociception. The administration of DMFP (0.1, 0.5, 1.0 and 5.0 mg/kg)
The reaction of Horner-Emmons reactant carbanions with 2-acetyl-5-methyl furan 1 and 2-acetyl-5-bromothiophene 9 resulted in phosphorus-containing fused bicyclic 5,5-membered and 5,6-membered systems 5a-c and 12a-c, respectively, as major reaction products along with minor (∼20%) amounts of
Search for new anti-inflammatory agents with higher efficacy and lower toxicity is an urgent demand in drug discovery era.
Different pyrazoline derivatives 4a,b, 5a,b, 6a-h and 7a-f were prepared from the condensation reactions of 1,5-bis(5-methylfuran/thiophen-2-yl)penta-1,4-dien-3-ones 3a,b with
Structure-activity studies on lead cyclobutenedione 3 led to the discovery of 4 (SCH 527123), a potent, orally bioavailable CXCR2/CXCR1 receptor antagonist with excellent cell-based activity. Compound 4 displayed good oral bioavailability in rat and may be a potential therapeutic agent for the
Asthma is associated with increased pulmonary inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness. The interaction between airway epithelium and inflammatory mediators plays a key role in the pathogenesis of asthma. In vitro studies evaluated the inhibitory effects of
