Pharmacokinetic behaviour in polymorphonuclear leucocytes of N,N-dimethylcarbamoylmethyl α,2-dimethyl-5H-[1]benzopyrano[2,3-b]-pyridine-7-acetate (Y-23023), a new prodrug type of antiinflammatory agent, and indomethacin after oral administrations in rats
Abstract:N,N-Dimethylcarbamoylmethyl alpha,2-dimethyl-5H-[1]- benzopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine-7-acetate (Y-23023) is a prodrug developed as a new non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Y-23023 is rapidly hydrolysed to an active metabolite, alpha,2-dimethyl-5H-[1]benzopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine-7-acetic acid (M1) following its absorption and then exhibits a strong anti-inflammatory activity. We have examined the pharmacokinetic behaviour in polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMNs) of M1 and of indomethacin after oral administra… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
