In vitro 5-LOX inhibitory and antioxidant potential of isoxazole derivatives.

ABSTRACT: 5-Lipoxygenase (5-LOX) is a key enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of pro-inflammatory leukotrienes, leading to asthma. Developing potent 5-LOX inhibitors are highly attractive. In this research the previously synthesized isoxazole derivatives has been investigated against 5-LOX inhibitory and antioxidant in vitro assay. The compound 3 caused concentration dependent inhibition of 5-LOX with overall IC50 value of 8.47 μM. The investigated compounds C5 also exhibited good 5-LOX inhibitory effect. The IC50 demonstrated for C5 was 10.48. Among the 10 synthesized compounds, the potential 5-LOX inhibitory effect was reported for C6. The most potent compound which showed excellent free radical scavenging effect was C3 having IC50 value of 10.96 μM. The next most potent antioxidant activity was r
