5-Hydroxyanthranilic acid derivatives as potent 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors.
Three new 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors, designated as BU-4601 A, B and C, were found in the fermentation broth of Streptomyces sp. strain No. AA2807. Their structures were identified as isodecyl, isoundecyl and isolauryl esters of 5-hydroxyanthranilic acid, respectively. Based on their structures, five related esters were synthesized and evaluated for biological activity as inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase. Both naturally-occurring and chemically-synthesized compounds exhibited almost equal levels of 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory activities in vitro.
