In order to discover the role in the promotion process of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO), a key enzyme in the arachidonate cascade, the antipromoting effects of the 5-LO inhibiting 3-nitro-2,4,6-trihydroxybenzamide (NTB) derivatives were studied in a two-stage transformation assay system using BALB 3T3 cells. All compounds inhibited TPA-promoted transformation in a dose-dependent manner. Most of them achieved a 70-80% inhibition. Good correlations were observed between the inhibition of TPA-promoted transformation and that of 5-LO. These results indicate that 5-LO plays an important role in the promotion stage of the transformation of BALB 3T3 cells.
为了发现5-脂氧合酶(5-LO)(花生四烯酸级联反应中的关键酶)在促进过程中的作用,在使用BALB 3T3细胞的两阶段转化试验系统中研究了5-LO抑制性3-硝基-2,4,6-三羟基苯甲酰胺(NTB)衍生物的抗促进作用。所有化合物均以剂量依赖性方式抑制TPA促进的转化。其中大多数实现了70-80%的抑制率。在TPA促进的转化抑制与5-LO抑制之间观察到良好的相关性。这些结果表明,5-LO在BALB 3T3细胞转化的促进阶段起重要作用。
