In an article, author is Swiatek, Piotr, once mentioned the application of 91-40-7, Name is 2-(Phenylamino)benzoic acid, molecular formula is C13H11NO2, molecular weight is 213.2319, MDL number is MFCD00002421, category is isothiazole. Now introduce a scientific discovery about this category, Quality Control of 2-(Phenylamino)benzoic acid.
One of the main challenges for nowadays medicine is drugs selectivity. In COX-1 and COX-2, the active sites are composed of the same group of amino acids with the exception of the only one residue in position 523, in COX-1 is an isoleucine, while in COX-2 is a valine. Here, we presented a series of isothiazolopyridine/ benzisothiazole derivatives substituted differently into an isothiazole ring, which were synthesized and investigated for their potencies to inhibit COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes by colorimetric inhibitor screening assay. All the tested compounds inhibited the activity of COX-1, the effect on COX2 activity was differential. The mode of binding was characterized by a molecular docking study. Comparing biological activity of the investigated compounds, it was observed that compounds sharing the most similar position to flurbiprofen and meloxicam, representing the two main enzyme subdomains, achieved higher biological activity than others. It is directly related to the fit to the enzyme’s active site, which prevents too early dissociation of the compounds. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
