Zusammenfassung: | •PH-251 is a pharmacologically active oxazolidinone hydroxamic acid derivative.•PH-251 is a novel dual inhibitor of 5-Lipoxygenase and mast cell degranulation.•PH-251 has anti-allergic, anti-asthmatic and anti-inflammatory effects.
We have recently reported the discovery of a series of oxazolidinone hydroxamic acid derivatives that are potent inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) [arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase; EC 1.13.11.34]. We now report that one of the most active members of this series, compound PH-251, [(R)-N-((3-(3-fluoro-4-morpholinophenyl)-2-oxooxazolidin-5-yl) methyl)-N-hydroxyoctanamide], also possesses a unique and strong ability to concurrently inhibit mast cell degranulation. PH-251 inhibited the biosynthesis of leukotriene C4 (LTC4), as well as degranulation of IgE/allergen-activated bone marrow-derived mouse mast cells (BMMC) in vitro. In contrast, zileuton (the prototype 5-LO inhibitor) inhibited leukotriene generation, but not degranulation. Consistent with its dual activity, compound PH-251 also significantly inhibited both the early and the late anaphylactic contractions of guinea pig lung parenchymal strip, whereas zileuton inhibited only the late (leukotriene-dependent) contractions. Comparative structure–activity analysis of PH-251 and its structural analogues showed that the anti-degranulation effect appeared to be dependent on the length of the straight-chain hydrocarbon substitution on the hydroxamic acid moiety. In the in vivo studies, PH-251 (3–30 mg/kg s.c.) strongly inhibited various components of zymosan-induced peritonitis - a typical non-allergic LT-dependent animal model of inflammation. In the mouse allergic asthma model, the compound significantly inhibited allergen-induced bronchial eosinophilic inflammation and airway hyper-responsiveness to inhaled methacholine. These results show that PH-251 is a unique dual inhibitor of 5-LO and mast cell degranulation, with in vivo activity in animal models of disease and may therefore offer potential advantages over single-target drugs in the treatment of asthma and other allergic and inflammatory diseases. |
