Abstract: | The discovery and structure-activity relationship of a novel series of coumarin-based TNF-alpha inhibitors is described. Starting from the initial lead 1a, various derivatives were prepared surrounding the coumarin core structure to optimize the in vitro inhibitory activity of TNF-alpha production by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hPBMC), stimulated by bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Selected compounds also demonstrated in vivo inhibition of TNF-alpha production in rats. |
