anti-inflammatory in vivo comparable in activity to glucocorticoids and 2nd generation analogs:
standard non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), but lower in potency (J.S. Gordon et al, ‘08, JID, 128: 643). To assess the anti-
inflammatory potential of novel IPC analogs, a total of 126 chemically-diverse IPC analogs were synthesized with structural modifications made to four distinct regions: 1) the cysteine -carboxyl, 2) the farnesyl side chain, 3) the sulfur and 4) the cysteine -amino. Analogs were tested for three endpoints in mice: inhibition of TPA-induced ear thickness (edema), neutrophil % Inhibition

Thus, IPC analogs could yield novel pharmaceutical leads for the novel IPC compounds. Compounds are screened in in vitro cell-based treatment of specific inflammatory skin conditions.
