Recently, pyrazole derivatives as high affinity and selective A2A adenosine receptor antagonists have been reported. But, so far, there are no reports about the inhibitory effects of multi-substituted pyrazole derivatives on apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells (VECs). In this study, we synthesized six pyrazole derivatives and characterized the structures of the compounds by IR, 1H NMR, mass spectroscopy, and element analysis. The biology assay showed that a novel pyrazole derivative, ethyl 3-(o-chlorophenyl)-5-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate (MPD) at low concentration (25 μM) increased VECs viability and inhibited VECs apoptosis induced by deprivation of serum and FGF-2. During this process, the levels of integrin β4, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and p53 were depressed obviously. The data suggested that MPD was a potential inhibitor of apoptosis associated with the signal pathway mediated by integrin β4, ROS, and p53 in VECs.
