Synthesis and discovery of a drug candidate for treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis through inhibition of TGF-β1 pathway.
European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 2018 September 6
In this study, anti-IPF lead compounds 42 and 44, derived from natural sesquiterpene lactones Isoalantolactone and alantolactone, were discovered by screening from a high-throughput TGF-β1 reporter luciferase assay. Notably, they could reduce the myofibroblast activation and extracellular matrix deposition both in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, compounds 42 and 44 could significantly attenuate bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice. Further validation of pharmacokinetics study and toxicity evaluation indicated that compound 44 might be a promising anti-IPF drug candidate.
