Abstract

Background : The effective management of pain in clinic is still challenging practitioner because of the many side effects associated with the use of current drugs, which can even affect life quality of the patients. Chalcones are described as compounds that have various pharmacological activities such as antioxidants, anti-inflammatories, anticancer antifungals and antibacterials. The objective of this study was to evaluate the analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties of two (2) synthesized imidazopyridinyl-chalcones.

Materials and Methods : Imidazopyridinyl-chalcones tested V1 and V2, different by the substituent, type hydroxyl group for V1 and diethylamine for V2, were synthesized by the Department of Organic and Therapeutic Chemistry of Pharmaceutical and Biological Sciences (Cote d'Ivoire). The analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities were performed in mice and rats respectively by acetic acid-induced writhes test according to the method described by Koster et al and formalin-induced irritation test performed by Dubuisson et al .

Results : V1 and V2 showed inhibition of contortions induced by acid acetic 1%, with greater analgesic effect for V2 at lower doses, while the opposite was observed for V1. At concentration of 3.125 mg/kg b. wt., V2 was 77.78% and V1 reach this percentage around 72.22% at 50 mg/kg b.wt., whereas that of paracetamol 100 mg/kg b. wt., used as a reference was about 48%. The anti-inflammatory effect of V2 (43.51%) was also higher compared to V1 (34.85%) at 3.125 mg/kg b.wt, but when doses increases at 12.25 mg/kg b. wt., the effect was non-significantly different to that of ketoprofen (69.98%) at 10 mg/kg b. wt., and range 48.57% and 47.73% respectively for V2 and V1.

Conclusion : Imidazopyridinyl-chalcones is a good model for the development of new molecules and it would appear that the presence of electron donor group like diethylamine is better than hydroxyl to push up analgesic and/or anti-inflammatory activities.
