A series of structurally novel mono-carbonyl curcumin analogues have been synthesized and biologically evaluated to test their inhibitory potencies and the structure-activity relationship (SAR) on human and rat 11β- hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isoform (11β-HSD1) activities. 11β-HSD1 selective inhibitors have been discovered and compound A10 is discovered as a very potent with an IC50 value of 97 nM without inhibiting 11β-HSD2.

Curcumin has been extensively studied for its anti-inflammatory activities. However, its potential beneficial effects on various disease preventions and treatments are limited by its unstable structure. The β-diketone moiety renders curcumin to be rapidly metabolized by aldo-keto reductase in liver. In the present study, a series of curcumin analogues with more stable chemical structures were synthesized and several compounds showed an enhanced ability to inhibit lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced TNF-α and IL-6 synthesis in macrophages.
