A novel series of water-soluble derivatives of limonin were synthesized by introducing various tertiary amines onto the C (7)-position of limonin. Ten target compounds were characterized and screened for their anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity in vivo. Compound 3c exhibited the strongest analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity among the limonin and its derivatives tested; its analgesic activity is more potent than that of aspirin and its anti-inflammatory activity is stronger than that of naproxen.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000894 Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
