Two series of novel bishydroxamic acids 2 and 3 (types A and B) were synthesized and tested for inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase from rat basophile leukemia (RBL) cells. Both series were potent inhibitors of the isolated enzyme but only the type B reverse hydroxamic acids possessed significant oral activity. The most potent compound, orally, was 3a, [IC50 = 270 nM; ED50 = 1.86 mg/kg], which compares favorably with the clinically useful 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor, zileuton. Unlike known hydroxamic acid inhibitors, the oral activity in this series appears to be associated with the second hydroxamic acid group. The corresponding monohydroxamic acids retained inhibitor potency, in vitro, with reduced oral activity in a mouse zymosan peritonitis model. Compound 4e [IC50 = 7 nM], a monohydroxamic acid derivative related to 3a, is among the most potent inhibitors of the isolated enzyme yet to be reported.

D009637 Masoprocol A potent lipoxygenase inhibitor that interferes with arachidonic acid metabolism. The compound also inhibits formyltetrahydrofolate synthetase, carboxylesterase, and cyclooxygenase to a lesser extent. It also serves as an antioxidant in fats and oils.

D010538 Peritonitis INFLAMMATION of the PERITONEUM lining the ABDOMINAL CAVITY as the result of infectious, autoimmune, or chemical processes. Primary peritonitis is due to infection of the PERITONEAL CAVITY via hematogenous or lymphatic spread and without intra-abdominal source. Secondary peritonitis arises from the ABDOMINAL CAVITY itself through RUPTURE or ABSCESS of intra-abdominal organs.

D015195 Drug Design The molecular designing of drugs for specific purposes (such as DNA-binding, enzyme inhibition, anti-cancer efficacy, etc.) based on knowledge of molecular properties such as activity of functional groups, molecular geometry, and electronic structure, and also on information cataloged on analogous molecules. Drug design is generally computer-assisted molecular modeling and does not include PHARMACOKINETICS, dosage analysis, or drug administration analysis.
