Article Synopsis
  • Novel benzophenone-thiazole hybrids were created and tested for their ability to reduce inflammation in a lab setting using human blood.
  • The hybrids displayed impressive inhibition of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) release, with some showing effectiveness comparable to existing reference drugs.
  • Molecular docking studies suggest these hybrids can bind effectively to key enzymes involved in inflammation, indicating their potential as new anti-inflammatory drug candidates and emphasizing the importance of choosing the right chemical substituents.

Owing to the potentially harmful adverse effects of current anti-inflammatory drugs, there is a need to identify new alternative substances. Thus, this study aimed to perform a phytochemical analysis of to identify compounds responsible for its anti-inflammatory activity. Several fractions of the extract were obtained and evaluated in an anti-inflammatory assay using fresh human blood.
