چکیده

Leukotriene (LT) B(4) is an inflammatory mediator that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease and psoriasis. As the rate-limiting step for LTB(4) production, LTA(4) hydrolase represents an attractive target for therapeutic agents that interfere with LTB(4) production. In the present study we evaluated a chemically novel compound designated SC-57461A (3-[methyl[3-[4-(phenylmethyl)phenoxy]propyl]amino]propanoic acid HCl) as an inhibitor of LTA(4) hydrolase. Pharmacological comparisons are made to its free acid SC-57461. SC-57461A is a potent competitive inhibitor of recombinant human LTA(4) hydrolase when either LTA(4) (IC(50) = 2.5 nM, K(i) = 23 nM) or peptide substrates (IC(50) = 27 nM) are used. In human whole blood, the IC(50) for calcium ionophore-induced LTB(4) production was 49 nM, indicative of good cell penetration. Whole blood production of the cyclooxygenase metabolite thromboxane B(2) was not affected. SC-57461A was also active in several other species, including mouse, rat, dog, and rhesus monkey. The data indicate that SC-57461A is a potent and selective inhibitor of LTA(4) hydrolase.

Pharmacological characterization of SC-57461A (3-[methyl[3-[4-(phenylmethyl)phenoxy]propyl]amino]propanoic acid HCl), a potent and selective inhibitor of leukotriene A(4) hydrolase II: in vivo studies.

Leukotriene (LT) A(4) hydrolase is a dual function enzyme that is essential for the conversion of LTA(4) to LTB(4) and also possesses an aminopeptidase activity. SC-57461A (3-[methyl[3-[4-phenylmethyl)phenoxy]propyl]amino]propanoic acid HCl) is a potent inhibitor of human recombinant LTA(4) hydrolase (epoxide hydrolase and aminopeptidase activities, K(i) values = 23 and 27 nM, respectively) as ...

Microsomal epoxide hydrolase of rat liver is a subunit of theanti-oestrogen-binding site.

A tritiated photoaffinity labelling analogue of tamoxifen, [(2-azido-4-benzyl)-phenoxy]-N-ethylmorpholine (azido-MBPE), was used to identify the anti-oestrogen-binding site (AEBS) in rat liver tissue [Poirot, Chailleux, Fargin, Bayard and Faye (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 17039-17043]. UV irradiation of rat liver microsomal proteins incubated with tritiated azido-MBPE led to the characterization ...

Native N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors containing NR2A and NR2B subunits have pharmacologically distinct competitive antagonist binding sites.

The pharmacological properties of native N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors were determined in rat brain sections with quantitative autoradiography of [(3)H](E)-2-amino-4-propyl-5-phosphono-3-pentenoic acid (CGP39653) binding. With five competitive antagonists as displacers, two subpopulations of binding sites were observed in the horizontal plane of section examined. These two populations c...

Inhibitors of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) represent one of the novel pharmaceutical approaches for treating hypertension, vascular inflammation, pain and other cardiovascular related diseases. Most of the potent sEH inhibitors reported in literature often suffer from poor solubility and bioavailability. Toward improving pharmacokinetic profile beside favorable potency, two series of 4-benza...
