ABSTRACT
To develop new anti-inflammatory drugs for the prevention and treatment of acute kidney injury, a series of novel glycyrrhetic ureas were designed, synthesized and evaluated for anti-inflammatory activity using RAW264.7 cells. Compounds 5r-5u (2.04, 2.50, 3.25 and 2.48 µM, respectively) with acidic or neutral amino acid showed potent anti-inflammatory activity (IC50 = 2-3 µM for NO inhibition), amongst them, compound 5r also inhibited tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in a dose-dependent manner. In cisplatin-induced AKI mice model, compound 5r significantly reduced the level of pro-inflammatory factors, ameliorated the pathological damage of kidney tissue, and maintained the normal metabolic capacity.
