5(S),6(R),7-TRIHYDROXYHEPTANOIC ACID, METHYL ESTER

Description

BML-111 (78606-80-1) novel truncated analog of lipoxin A4 which retains anti-inflammatory activity.1 Inhibits LTB4-induced leukocyte chemotaxis, IC50=5 nM).1 Attenuates hemorrhagic shock-induced acute lung injury in a rat model.2 Displays hepatoprotective effects in acetaminophen-induced liver injury in mice.3 Limits inflammatory damage in the cerebral cortex and helps maintain blood brain barrier integrity in a rat model of ischemic stroke.4 Attenuates renal ischemia/reperfusion injury via activation of p38 MAPK/PPARa/HO-1 pathway.5

Uses

5(S),6(R)-7-trihydroxymethyl Heptanoate is a potent lipoxin A4 agonist.
