Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC50/Ki
leukotriene receptor
In vitro
Zafirlukast is similar to 3-methylindole because it contains an N-methylindole moiety that has a 3-alkyl substituent on the indole ring. This compound readily forms (10% conversion in 60 min) a GSH adduct with molecular mass of 880 Da upon incubation with horseradish peroxidase. It produces time-, concentration-, and NADP(H)-dependent inactivation of CYP3A4. This chemical is shown to inhibit CYP3A enzyme activity in vitro (nonpreincubation inhibition) with a Ki of 2 μM in one report, but higher values have been published, and our KI for the inactivation process is 13.4 μM. It has high plasma protein binding (>99%), which would lower the free-drug concentration. This compound undergoes two successive one-electron oxidations to afford a highly electrophilic α,β-unsaturated iminium species, which reacts spontaneously with GSH to yield the observed adduct.
In vivo
Zafirlukast is a potent and selective cysteinyl leukotriene receptor antagonist which is used mainly in the prophylaxis of bronchial asthma. This compound in a dose of 80 mg/kg orally produces a significant decrease in tissue malondialdehyde, myeloperoxidase, and an increase in both reduced glutathione and catalase levels, while there is no significant changes with the rectal route.
