Abstract
Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides. The enzyme 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) plays a key role in catalyzing the formation of lipid peroxides. Therefore, inhibition of 15-LOX-1 enzyme activity holds promise to decrease the levels of lipid peroxidation. In this study, a novel potent 15-LOX-1 inhibitor, 5i, was developed and structure-activity relationships were explored. In vitro, this inhibitor inhibited lipid peroxidation and protected cells from RSL3-induced cell death. Thus, we report a potent 15-LOX-1 inhibitor, which can be used as a tool to investigate the role of 15-LOX-1.
期刊介绍：
The European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry is a global journal that publishes studies on all aspects of medicinal chemistry. It provides a medium for publication of original papers and also welcomes critical review papers.
A typical paper would report on the organic synthesis, characterization and pharmacological evaluation of compounds. Other topics of interest are drug design, QSAR, molecular modeling, drug-receptor interactions, molecular aspects of drug metabolism, prodrug synthesis and drug targeting. The journal expects manuscripts to present the rational for a study, provide insight into the design of compounds or understanding of mechanism, or clarify the targets.
