Title:

The development of new isoxazolone based inhibitors of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) production.

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2005 May 2;15(9):2399-403.

Abstract:

4-Aryl-3-pyridyl and 4-aryl-3-pyrimidinyl based tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) inhibitors, which contain a novel isoxazolone five-membered heterocyclic core are described. Many showed sub-micromolar activity against lipopolysaccharide-induced TNF-alpha production.
