RESUMEN
On basis of Quercetin moiety, two series of 20 new compounds were designed and synthesized accordingly in this study, and their anti-inflammatory activities in vitro and in vivo were evaluated. At last, compound 8A2: 3- (1- (2- (4- (5-bromo-2-chlorobenzoyl) piperazin-1-yl) ethyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) methoxy)-5,7-dimethoxy-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-4H-chromen-4-one with low toxicity was found the best one for inhibiting of NO. Meanwhile, this compound could significantly inhibit the expression of IL-6 (Interleukin-6), TNF-α (Tumor necrosis factor-α) and IL-17 (Interleukin-17), and also significantly down-regulate IL-17 mRNA psoriasis model in vitro. Further studies were performed to establish mouse psoriasis model induced by Imiquimod (IMQ), and the preliminary mechanism indicated that compound 8A2 may alleviate mouse psoriasis through obstructed the JAK1/2-STAT1/3 pathway. This study should be provide a basis for further study of effective treatment of psoriasis.

T-LAK-cell-originated protein kinase (TOPK), a novel member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase family, is considered an effective therapeutic target for skin inflammation. In this study, a series (A - D) of paeonol derivatives was designed and synthesised using a fragment growing approach, and their anti-inflammatory activities against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced nitric oxide production in RAW264.7 cells were tested. Among them, compound B12 yielded the best results (IC50 = 2.14 µM) with low toxicity (IC50 > 50 µM). Preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that this compound could inhibit the TOPK-p38/JNK signalling pathway and phosphorylate downstream related proteins. A murine psoriasis-like skin inflammation model was used to determine its therapeutic effect.
