Abstract: In this study, we used chemical modification to improve the pharmacological activity of norisoboldine (NOR). A new NOR-benzoic acid derivative, named DC-01, showed more potent induction of Treg cell differentiation than NOR. The in vitro effective concentration of DC-01 (1 μM) is about an order of magnitude lower than that of NOR (10 μM). DC-01 (28, 56 mg/kg) showed better amelioration of dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis in mice than NOR (20, 40 mg/kg), and DC-01 (28 mg/kg) increased the number of Treg cells slightly better than NOR (20 mg/kg). In summary, DC-01 exerts more potent induction of Treg cell generation, which might be a candidate drug for the treatment of inflammation- and immune-related diseases.
