dc.description.abstractNatural products and their synthetic derivatives gathered attention due to their pharmaceutical capacities. They have been in use against different types of diseases ranging from cancer to inflammatory disorders. In order to increase their efficacy and prevent the possible side effects, these natural compounds are manipulated at the laboratory conditions and modified according to our needs. Azulene is one of these compounds whose anti-inflammatory potential have been shown by the previous studies, but a detailed analysis of its effect at the cellular level in terms of pro-inflammatory cytokine production has not been studied yet. Moreover, its derivative potential has not been characterized extensively. In our study, we examined the cytotoxic, immunomodulatory and immunostimulatory potential of bromo- and cyano-substituted azulenes on the mammalian macrophages. These unique compounds had differential effects on the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and they were anti-inflammatory immunomodulators. Furthermore, they exerted anti-proliferative effect on breast and prostate cancer cells which supports their anti-cancer potential as well.
