Spirooxindoles, a potential novel class of anti-inflammatory agents
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a previous study, we described a class of spirooxindole-pyranopyrimidine compounds that had a wide range of anti-cancer activity. In a most recent study, we found that one such compound, JP-8g, were also found to exhibit potent in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. In vitro and in vivo experiments suggested that JP-8g exerts this activity through nitric oxide (NO) signaling pathway. Herein, we discuss the potential of the use of these compounds as anti-inflammatory agents. The new data in this study also suggested that JP-8g exerts its anti-inflammatory activity through NF-B-independent signaling pathway.

Anti-cancer small molecule JP-8g exhibits potent in vivo anti-inflammatory activity
Spirooxindoles are a class of compounds with diverse biological activity. Previously, we identified a series of spirooxindole-pyranopyrimidine compounds that exhibited broad-spectrum anti-cancer activity. In this study, we evaluated one of these compounds, JP-8g, on mouse models and found that it showed potent in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. Further investigation suggested that JP-8g may ex...

Diclofenac sodium has been used for its anti-inflammatory actions for about 28 years, but since all the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) suffer from the lethal gastro intestinal (GI) toxicities, diclofenac sodium is not an exception. The free –COOH group is thought to be responsible for the GI toxicity associated with all traditional NSAIDs. In the present research, the main motto...
