Abstract
The syntheses of 7,7-dimethyl-(1), 10,10-dimethyl-(2), and 5,6-benzoarachidonic acid (3), potential substrate analog inhibitors of leukotriene biosynthesis, are described. Two of these compounds (1 and 2) apparently stimulated, while 3 inhibited, the activity of lipoxygenase from intact human polymorphonuclear leukocytes in vitro when stimulated with Ca2+ and calcium ionophore A23187 [calcimycin] in the presence of BSA [bovine serum albumin] and arachidonic acid.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
