Inflammation is a complex process with many contributing factors, and it often causes pain. The pathophysiology of pain involves the release inflammatory mediators that initiate sensation, as well edema other inflammation hallmarks. Selenium-containing compounds (OSe) are very promising for developing new medicines because they can treat different diseases. In this study, we estimated anti-inflammatory properties maleanilic succinanilic acids containing selenium (OSe). These molecules were designed by combining strategies to enhance their properties. Hence, impacts 8, 9, 10, 11 pursued using markers COX-2, IL-1β, IL-6. Notably, was revealed downregulated IL-6 (2.01, 1.63, 2.26, 2.05), (1.42, 1.64, 1.93, 2.59), (1.67, 2.54, 2.22, 4.06)-fold changes, respectively.
