Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Eight rabbits of the New Zealand breed were used, weighing approximately 2 kg. In the right eye of each animal, 0.8 ml/week of Bentelan Depot (equivalent to 4 mg betametasone) were instilled for 4 weeks. The left eye was kept as control. The medicament, administered subconjunctivally, brought about an increase of the intraocular tension in the first week, reached its peak in the second week and then remained constant until the fifth week. an increase of the intraocular tension in the first week remained constant until the fifth week

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: A reaction was performed on a 384-well plate (Greiner Bio One) using a reaction volume of 24 μL, and all the samples were diluted with an assay buffer (50 mM tris buffer, pH 7.4, 10% glycerol). 0.8 mM NADPH, 6 mM glucose 6-phosphate, 0.35 units/mL glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (Sigma Chemical), and 3 mM magnesium chloride and a microsome fraction as an enzyme source were added to the plate, and a solution containing a test compound dissolved in a dimethyl sulfoxide/methanol solution was added at a final concentration of 0.1%. After the addition of the test compound, cortisone at a final concentration of 160 nM was added to start the reaction, and the reaction was performed at room temperature for 3 h. 25 μL of 100 mM carbenoxolone (Sigma Chemical) was added to terminate the reaction, and the amount of cortisol produced was measured with RUBYstar (BMG LABTECH JAPAN Ltd.) using a cortisol prototype kit (Cisbio International) according to the package insert. The IC50 values of the compounds of Examples are shown below. a solution containing a test compound was added at a final concentration of 0.1% was added the reaction to terminate the reaction
