Popis: A series of 6,7-diaryl-2,3-1H-dihydropyrrolizines was prepared as COX-1/COX-2 and 5-LOX inhibitors. The inhibition of COX-1 was evaluated using intact bovine platelets as the enzyme source, whereas LPS-stimulated human monocytes served as the enzyme source for inducible COX-2. The determination of arachidonic metabolites was performed by HPLC for COX-1 and RIA for COX-2. The balance between COX-1/COX-2 and 5-LOX inhibition can be shifted by modifying the substitution pattern of the phenyl moiety at the 6- and 7-position of the pyrrolizine nucleus. Structure-activity relationships are discussed.
