5-Arylidene-3-hydroxyalkyl-2-phenylimino-4-thiazolidinones (7,8) were synthesized and evaluated for their antidegenerative activity on human chondrocyte cultures stimulated by IL-1beta. This in vitro model has proven to be a useful experimental model to reproduce the mechanisms involved in arthritic diseases. The cell viability, the amount of GAGs, the production of NO and PGE(2) and the inhibition of MMP-3 were measured. Several thiazolidinones 7 and 8 exhibited the ability to block the production or action of the degenerative factors induced by IL-1beta.
