Sepsis is characterized by a systemic inflammatory response syndrome. Derivatives of indole have been reported to exhibit diverse biological activities. This study reports on the design and synthesis of a new series of indole-2-carboxamide derivatives, which are screened for their anti-inflammatory activities in RAW 264.7 macrophages. A majority of these derivatives effectively inhibited lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Preliminary structure–activity relationship analysis was also conducted. The results indicate that the most promising compounds in the prepared series were14fand14g. They were found to effectively reduce LPS-induced pulmonary inflammation and overexpression of a series of inflammatory mediators. Furthermore, in vivo administration of14fand14gresulted in remarkable lung histopathological improvements in mice without toxicity in organs. Taken together, these data indicate that the newly discovered indole-2-carboxamide derivatives could be particularly useful for further treatment in inflammatory diseases.
