Problems solved by technology

Additionally, MPO has been shown to play an important role in plaque destabilization leading to plaque rupture
[0008] However, although MPO is widely implicated in the etiology and progression of cardiovascular diseases, biosafe and nontoxic inhibitors of MPO have yet to be developed

Embodiment 1

[0259] Synthesis and characterization of embodiment 1-methylenedioxyphenyl ferulic acid ester

[0260] For the synthesis of methylenedioxyphenyl ferulate (general formula (II), the chemicals and reagents of the synthesis process described below include: ferulic acid, methylenedioxyphenol, dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) , triethylamine (TEA), and N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDCl) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO) .

[0261] During the synthesis step, figure 1 As described in , the synthesis of methylenedioxyphenyl ferulic acid ester was completed by the coupling reaction of ferulic acid and methylenedioxyphenol, and the whole reaction was carried out in a nitrogen atmosphere. In order to complete this reaction, 0.194g (1 millimolar (mM)) ferulic acid; 0.138g (1mM) methylenedioxyphenol, 0.101g triethylamine, corresponding volume: 0.140ml; Dimethylaminopyridine catalyst consumption ( approximately 1 mg to 2 mg), mixed in a 100 ...

Embodiment 2

[0269] Synthesis and characterization of embodiment 2-ferulic acid proline

[0270] For the synthesis of proline ferulic acid (general formula (XVI)), the chemicals and reagents used in the synthesis process described below include: ferulic acid, L-proline methyl ester hydrochloride, dimethylaminopyridine ( DMAP), and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), were first purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO). The synthesis of ferulic acid proline is accomplished by the coupling reaction of ferulic acid and proline methyl ester, followed by regeneration of the free carboxylic acid by base-catalyzed hydrolysis of the ester. The entire reaction was carried out under nitrogen atmosphere.

[0271] In the first step of the reaction, figure 2 0.194 g (1 mM) ferulic acid, 0.165 g (1 mM) proline ester, 0.101 g dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) were mixed in a 100 mL round bottom flask as described in . The contents of the flask were dissolved in 25 mL of dichloromethane and stirred unifor...

Embodiment 3

[0284] Example 3 - Inhibition of myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity

[0285] In order to determine whether the compounds of the present invention inhibit the activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO) at different concentrations, tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) was used as a substrate in the myeloperoxidase (MPO) test because it was more effective than guaiac Wood phenol is more sensitive and the color is more stable. Typically, 200 μl of the reaction mixture contained 20 mU of human myeloperoxidase (MPO) (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), 400 nmol H 2 o 2 , 1.6 μmol TMB, varying concentrations of methylenedioxyphenyl ferulate (general formula (II)) or ferulic acid proline (general formula (XVI)).

[0286] Reactions were performed in (200 μl, 50 mM) sodium acetate buffer at pH=5.6. MPO was added to initiate the reaction, and the optical density of the resulting product was read at 650 nm at different time points using a microplate reader. The results confirmed that two compounds, methylenedi...
