All phthaloyl amino acid derivatives presented anti-oral inflammatory activity, but compounds 2e and 2g were found to possess the best activities comparable to thalidomide. Most of the compounds effectively suppressed nitric oxide production in murine cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide. Nphthaloyl amino acids did not exhibit any significant cytotoxicity in vitro when tested against tumor cells as well as a spleen cell culture of BALB/c mice. Compounds 2a, 2g, and 2h were able to inhibit TNF-a and IL-1b production by macrophages. At the same concentration, thalidomide did not exhibit significant inhibitory activity.

Their structure suggests that these compounds could have anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity. Biological evaluation indicates that some of these compounds are able to inhibit ...
