BRP-7 is a highly selective FLAP inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.31 μM. By targeting the 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (FLAP), BRP-7 effectively interrupts the co-localization of FLAP and 5-lipoxygenase, inhibiting the transfer of arachidonic acid and consequently reducing leukotriene production (IC₅₀ = 0.15 μM). It does not inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX-1/COX-2) or microsomal prostaglandin E₂ synthase-1 (mPGES-1), and maintains cell viability. BRP-7 has demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory properties in rodent models of pleurisy and peritonitis, making it a valuable tool for investigating inflammatory diseases.
