Inhibition of prostaglandin E2 production by synthetic Wogonin analogs

Effects of wogonin analogs on cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) catalyzed prostaglandin E 2 production on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cells were investigated. Wogonin analogs were prepared via several different synthetic pathways. Among wogonin analogs tested, 8-halogeno and 8-nitro analogs sh...

Description
Summary:Effects of wogonin analogs on cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) catalyzed prostaglandin E 2 production on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cells were investigated. Wogonin analogs were prepared via several different synthetic pathways. Among wogonin analogs tested, 8-halogeno and 8-nitro analogs showed strong inhibitory activities against COX-2 catalyzed PGE 2 production from LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. Effect of wogonin was largely dependent on structural alteration of the 8-methoxy group.
