Abstract
Phthalimide and N-substituted phthalimide have a special structure that helps them to be pharmaceutically useful and biologically active. In this study, we investigated the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects of a synthetic phthalimide-containing derivative in an experimental asthma model. In vitro determination of antioxidant and chelating activity was carried out by spectrophotometric methods. The in vivo antioxidant activity was carried out in Wistar rats sensitized to ovalbumin in the experimental model of asthma. Our results reveal that that the synthesized N-sulfonylphthalimide molecule has a scavenging capacity against the free radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH•) and a chelating activity on ferrous ions and revealed its protective capacity against altered markers of oxidative stress in the experimental asthma model. All the previous results were confirmed by the result of the histopathological study of the liver. Moreover, neo-synthesized N-sulfonylphthalimide 2 showed antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria with interesting MIC values. Finally, our study highlights the anti-inflammatory, anti-asthmatic and antibacterial effects of the N-sulfonylphthalimide molecule, which could potentially be a drug of choice in asthmatic pathology, especially during bacterial superinfections in the respiratory tract.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
