Abstract
Balanced modulation of several targets is one of the current strategies for the treatment of multi-factorial diseases. Based on the knowledge of inflammation mechanisms, it was inferred that the balanced inhibition of cyclooxygenase-1/cyclooxygenase-2/lipoxygenase might be a promising approach for treatment of such a multifactorial disease state as inflammation. Detection of fragments responsible for interaction with enzyme's binding site provides the basis for designing new molecules with increased affinity and selectivity. A new chemoinformatics approach was proposed and applied to create a fragment library that was used to design novel inhibitors of cycloxygenase-1/cycloxygenase-2/ lipoxygenase enzymes. Potential binding sites were elucidated by docking. Synthesis of novel compounds, and the in vitro/in vivo biological testing confirmed the results of computational studies. The benzothiazolyl moiety was proved to be of great significance for developing more potent inhibitorsI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
