The identification, synthesis, biological activity, and binding mode prediction of a series of pyrazolobenzothiazines as novel p38α MAPK inhibitors are reported. Some of these compounds showed interesting activity in both p38α MAPK and TNF-α release assays. Derivative 6 emerged as the most interesting compound with IC50 (p38α) = 0.457 μm, IC50 (TNF-α) = 0.5 μm and a promising kinase selectivity profile. The obtained results strongly indicate the pyrazolobenzothiazine core as a new p38α inhibitor chemotype worthy of future chemical optimization efforts directed toward identifying a new generation of anti-inflammatory agents.
