  • Publication number: 20240002350
    Abstract: Disclosed are compounds and methods for preventing or treating necroinflammation associated with ferroptotic processes. The method includes inhibiting 15 lipoxygenase/phosphatidylethanolamine binding protein (15LOX/PEBP1) complex, wherein the inhibitor exhibits a higher binding affinity or binding activity for 15LOX/PEBP1 complex compared to 15LOX alone. Necroinflammation associated with ferroptotic processes causes several pathogenic conditions including upper or lower respiratory disorders, acute or chronic brain injury, renal injury, injury by radiation, neurodegenerative disorder, among others. The disclosed compounds and methods are useful in subjects diagnosed with one or more of these conditions.

  • Patent number: 11274077
    Abstract: Human lipoxygenases (LOXs) are a family of iron-containing enzymes involved in catalyzing the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids to provide the corresponding bioactive hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (HETE) metabolites. These eicosanoid signaling molecules are involved in a number of physiologic responses such as platelet aggregation, inflammation, and cell proliferation. Platelet-type 12-(S)-LOX (12-LOX) is of particular interest because of its demonstrated role in skin diseases, diabetes, platelet hemostasis, thrombosis, and cancer. Disclosed herein is the identification and medicinal chemistry optimization of a 4-((2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzyl)amino)benzenesulfonamide-based scaffold. The compounds display nM potency against 12-LOX and excellent selectivity over related lipoxygenases and cyclooxygenases. In addition to possessing favorable ADME properties, the compounds also inhibit PAR-4 induced aggregation and calcium mobilization in human platelets, and reduce 12-HETE in mouse/human beta cells.
