Bay-X-1005 is a potent inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP).
Bay-X-1005 is a potent inhibitor of 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP). Bay-X-1005 inhibits A23187-induced LTB4 production in human leucocytes with an IC50 value of 220 nM, and blocks IgE mediated airway contractions.
Patients with COPD classically have neutrophilic bronchial inflammation and raised airway concentrations of the neutrophil chemoattractant leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)). A small phase II trial was conducted to assess the effects of a leukotriene synthesis inhibitor on bronchial inflammation in patients
Mediators of inflammation, 10(1), 33-36 (2001-04-28)
Increased secretion of mucus is a hallmark of many respiratory diseases and contributes significantly to the airflow limitation experienced by many patients. While the current pharmacological approach to reducing mucus and sputum production in patients is limited, clinical studies have

Leukotrienes have been identified in various pathophysiologies. The leukotrienes LTB4 and LTC4 are assigned to inflammation. 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors which inhibit the synthesis of LTA4 being the precursor of both LTB4 and LTC4 appear to have only a limited antiinflammatory potential.

The existence of an increased number of Kupffer cells is recognized as critical in the initiation of the inflammatory cascade leading to liver fibrosis. Because 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) is a key regulator of cell growth and survival, in the current investigation
