ABSTRACT
This work describes the synthesis and anti-inflammatory properties of a pentadienone derivative, HB2. The treatment with HB2 produced anti-oedematogenic, anti-inflammatory and antinociception without change locomotors performance. Finally, HB2 reduced the nitric oxide and prostaglandin E(2) production on RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with LPS without changing the cell viability. Taken together, our results show, for the first time, that HB2 can modulate the inflammatory response when administered to mice.
