Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic, nonspecific inflammatory bowel disease that is very difficult to cure. In this study, we have designed and synthesized a series of new 1,2,3-triazole-linked (±)-Agrimonolide derivatives and evaluated their anti-inflammatory activities. The in vitro results demonstrated that most triazole derivatives effectively inhibited NO production, and most compounds exhibited better anti-inflammatory activity than that of (±)-Agrimonolide and positive drug Dexamethasone. The further in vivo tests indicated that 6d could inhibit the release of inflammatory mediators in the colon tissue and alleviate Ulcerative colitis by inhibiting JAK1/STAT3 pathways.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Diversity is a new publication forum for the rapid publication of refereed papers dedicated to describing the development, application and theory of molecular diversity and combinatorial chemistry in basic and applied research and drug discovery. The journal publishes both short and full papers, perspectives, news and reviews dealing with all aspects of the generation of molecular diversity, application of diversity for screening against alternative targets of all types (biological, biophysical, technological), analysis of results obtained and their application in various scientific disciplines/approaches including:
combinatorial chemistry and parallel synthesis;
small molecule libraries;
microwave synthesis;
flow synthesis;
fluorous synthesis;
diversity oriented synthesis (DOS);
nanoreactors;
click chemistry;
multiplex technologies;
fragment- and ligand-based design;
structure/function/SAR;
computational chemistry and molecular design;
chemoinformatics;
screening techniques and screening interfaces;
analytical and purification methods;
robotics, automation and miniaturization;
targeted libraries;
display libraries;
peptides and peptoids;
proteins;
