title: Synthesis and effects on the COX-1 and COX-2 activity in human whole blood ex vivo of derivatives containing the [1]benzothienol-[3, 2-d]pyrimidin-4-one heterocyclic system.
abstract: Methyl and phenyl derivatives containing the [1]Benzothieno [3, 2-d]pyrimidin-4-one system have been synthesized and tested as inhibitors of COX-1 and COX-2 activities in human whole blood (HWB) ex vivo; all compounds turned out to be weak inhibitors of COX-1 activity, as deduced from the TXB(2) (thromboxane B) generation; the acid phenyl derivative 11 b was an interesting inhibitor of COX-2 activity, as deduced from the PGE(2) (prostaglandine E) generation.
