Synthetic organic
Comment: We obtained the chemical structure for zenuzolac from WHO Proposed list 125 of July 2021, in which it is described as an anti-inflammatory. The INN represents the racemic (rac) mixture of (R) and (S) enantiomers. We show the molecule without specified stereochemistry to represent the mixture. We have mapped this to PubChem CID 10798271. Synonyms from the PubChem entry associate the structure with research code VGX-1027 (VGX Pharmaceuticals). VGX-1027 is an immunomodulatory compound that downregulates proinflammatory cytokine production and NF-κB and MAP kinase activation [1,4-5].
COVID-19: Zenuzolac (re-named as GLS-1027) is being evaluated to determine its potential to reduce SARS-CoV-2-induced pulmonary inflammation (pneumonitis). |
