Synthesis and Biological Screening of Silicon-Containing Ibuprofen Derivatives: A Study of Their NF-κβ Inhibitory Activity, Cytotoxicity, and Their Ability to Bind IKKβ
Keyword(s):
The synthesis and characterisation of new silicon-containing amides and esters derived from ibuprofen is reported. These compounds were tested against nuclear transcription factor κβ (NF-κβ). Higher inhibition values than those of ibuprofen were achieved by the new amides 10a–10d; ester derivatives did not show inhibitory activity. The cytotoxicity of these new derivatives was screened; none of them displayed significant toxicity at the screened doses. A molecular docking calculation on IKKβ (an enzyme related to NF-κβ activation) was carried out and the results showed that the amides interact better than ibuprofen with key residues, which are important to the inhibition of IKKβ.
