Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have designed resolvin E1 and E2 analogues substituted omega-terminal to develop a metabolically stable equivalent. In order to synthesize them efficiently, we planned that resolvin E1 and E2 were separated into three fragments and connected them respectively. As a result, we achieved the synthesis of three fragments and connected them by selective olefination. This synthetic route allowed to introduce omega-terminal moiety at the late stage.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
レゾルビン類はその強力な抗炎症作用から新規抗炎症薬のリード構造として注目されているが、生体内で容易に代謝されて分解・不活性化されてしまうことが知られている。この不安定性が影響し、作用機序の解明や構造活性相関研究が進んでいない。このため、誘導体化による安定化や構造活性相関研究が望まれている。本研究で確立した合成経路はこの問題解決のための糸口となり、レゾルビンを基盤とした新規抗炎症薬創出へと発展が期待される。
