The studies described here, using enantiomers of an optically-active methoxy alkyl thiazole ICI216800 (1-methoxy-6-(naphth-2-yl-methoxyl)-1- (thiazol-2-yl)indane), provide unequivocal evidence for a specific, chiral interaction with 5-lipoxygenase. In accordance with their biochemical efficacy these compounds also demonstrate enantio-specific anti-inflammatory activity in a leukotriene-mediated model of inflammation. This is the first class of compounds for which 5-lipoxygenase inhibition and anti-inflammatory activity have been shown to be mediated via a specific chiral interaction.
本文所述的研究使用了具有光学活性的甲氧基烷基噻唑ICI216800(1-甲氧基-6-(萘-2-基甲氧基)-1-(噻唑-2-基)茚满)的对映体,为与5-脂氧合酶的特异性手性相互作用提供了明确证据。根据其生化功效,这些化合物在白三烯介导的炎症模型中也表现出对映体特异性抗炎活性。这是第一类被证明5-脂氧合酶抑制和抗炎活性是通过特异性手性相互作用介导的化合物。
