荭草花醇提物对H_2O_2诱导的H9c2细胞氧化损伤的保护作用机制研究

研究荭草花醇提物对H9c2心肌细胞氧化损伤的保护作用机制。采用200μmol/L H_2O_2作用H9c2细胞0.5 h,建立H9c2细胞氧化损伤模型。将细胞分为正常对照组、H9c2细胞氧化损伤模型组、不同浓度荭草花醇提物(20、40、80μg/m L)预处理组。采用MTS法检测细胞存活率;生化试剂盒检测细胞乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)释放量,细胞内丙二醛(MDA)含量及超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)活力;Western blot测定cleavedcaspase-3、Bcl-2、Bax、p-AKT和AKT的表达。与模型组比较,荭草花醇提物能明显增加心肌细胞存活率,降低LDH释放量和MDA含量,提高SOD及CAT活性,并呈剂量依赖性抑制H_2O_2诱导的氧化应激损伤。荭草花醇提物下调cleaved caspase-3和Bax的蛋白水平,上调Bcl-2的表达,减少心肌细胞凋亡;增加细胞中p-AKT的表达,且这种表达可被PI3Ks抑制剂LY294002抵消。表明荭草花醇提物可减轻H_2O_2诱导的H9c2心肌细胞氧化应激损伤,其机制可能与减少细胞凋亡,平衡氧化应激产物有关,且部分依赖于磷脂酰肌醇3-激酶(PI3K/Akt)通路。

木犀草素预处理对H_2O_2诱导大鼠心肌H9C2细胞损伤的保护机制研究

为了探讨木犀草素能否通过再灌注损伤挽救激酶(Reperfusion injury salvage kinase,RISK)细胞信号通路发挥抗心肌氧化应激损伤保护作用,本实验分别用1、50、100、150μmol/L的木犀草素预处理大鼠心肌来源的H9c2细胞,再使用650μmol/L的H_2O_2制作氧化应激损伤模型。利用MTT法(四甲基偶氮唑盐比色法)检测细胞存活率,然后用最适浓度的木犀草素预处理H9c2细胞并利用激光共聚焦显微镜技术检测线粒体膜电位,Western blot检测P-ERK1/2、P-Akt、P-GSK-3β以及凋亡相关蛋白细胞色素C。最后我们发现不同浓度的木犀草素预处理均能提高细胞存活率,其中在100μmol/L时达到最佳效应。与H_2O_2组相比,100μmol/L的木犀草素预处理可以使TMRE(四甲基罗丹明乙酯)强度降低程度明显减轻,对抗H_2O_2引起的细胞氧化损伤。同时木犀草素预处理可以降低细胞色素C表达,使P-GSK-3β、P-Akt、P-ERK1/2表达升高,渥曼青霉素(PI3K抑制剂)和PD98059(ERK1/2抑制剂)可以阻断这种作用。因此我们认为木犀草素预处理可以减轻H_2O_2引起的氧化应激损伤,这一作用可能是通过RISK信号通路增加P-GSK-3β表达,抑制m PTP开放实现的。

New preparations and molecular structures of cis-MCl2(Ph2PCH2PPh2)2, M = Ru,Os and trans-RuCl2(Ph2PCH2PPh2)2

The title compounds were made by reacting bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm) with reduced solutions of OsCl₆^4? and Ru₂OCl₁₀^4?. The crystal and molecular structures of these compounds have been determined form three-dimensional X-ray study. The cis-isomers crystallize with one CHCl₃ per molecule of the complex. All three compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with unit cell dimensions as follows: Cis-OsCl₂(dppm)₂·CHCl₃: a = 13.415(4) Å, b = 22.859(4) Å, c = 16.693(3) Å, β = 105.77(3)°, V = 4926(3) ų, Z = 4. cis-RuCl₂(dppm)₂·CHCl₃: a = 13.442(3) Å, b = 22.833(7) Å, c = 16.750(4) Å, β = 105.53(2)°, V = 4953(3) ų, Z = 4. trans-RuCl₂(dppm)₂: a = 11.368(7) Å, b = 10.656(6) Å, c = 18.832(12) Å; β = 103.90(6)°, V = 2213(7) ų; Z = 2. The structures were refined to R = 0.044 (R_w = 0.055) for cis-OsCl₂(dppm)₂·CHCl₃; R = 0.065 (R_w = 0.079) for cis-RuCl₂(dppm)₂·CHCl₃ and R = 0.028 (R_w = 0.038) for trans-RuCl₂(dppm)₂.

Crystal structures of MoCl2(O)(O2)(OPMePh2)2 and mixtures of MoCl2(O2)(OPPh3)2 and MoCl2(O)(O2)(OPPh3)2: allylic alcohol isomerization studies using MoCl2(O)(O2)(OPMePh2)2

Adding one equivalent of H₂O₂ to compounds of stoichiometry MoCl₂(O)₂(OPR₃)₂, OPR₃ = OPMePh₂ or OPPh₃, leads to the formation of oxo-peroxo compounds MoCl₂(O)(O₂)(OPR₃)₂. The compound MoCl₂(O)(O₂)(OPMePh₂)₂ crystallized with an unequal disorder, 63%:37%, between the oxo and peroxo ligands, as verified by single-crystal X-ray diffractometry, and can be isolated in reasonable yields. MoCl₂(O)(O₂)(OPPh₃)₂, was not isolated in pure form, co-crystallized with MoCl₂(O)₂(OPPh₃)₂ in two ratios, 18%:82% and 12%:88%, respectively, and did not contain any disorder in the arrangement of the oxo and peroxo groups. These complexes accomplish the isomerization of various allylic alcohols. A mechanism of this reaction has been constructed based on ¹⁸O isotopic studies and involves exchange between the alcohol and metal bonded O atoms.

Selective synthesis of triangular cluster oxido-sulfidocomplexes of Mo and W: High yield preparations of [Mo3O2S2(H2O)9], [W3O2S2(H2O)9], [W2MoO2S2(H2O)9] and their derivatization

Reaction of [Mo₂O₂(μ-S)₂(H₂O)₆]²⁺ with Mo(CO)₆ or metallic Mo under hydrothermal conditions (140 °C, 4 M HCl) gives oxido-sulfido cluster aqua complex [Mo₃(μ₃-S)(μ-O)₂(μ-S)(H₂O)₉]⁴⁺ (1). Similarly, [W₃(μ₃-S)(μ-O)₂(μ-S)(H₂O)₉]⁴⁺ (2) is obtained from [W₂O₂(μ-S)₂(H₂O)₆]²⁺ and W(CO)₆. While reaction of [Mo₂O₂(μ-S)₂(H₂O)₆]²⁺ with W(CO)₆ mainly proceeds as simple reduction to give 1, [W₂O₂(μ-S)₂(H₂O)₆]²⁺ with Mo(CO)₆ produces new mixed-metal cluster [W₂Mo(μ₃-S)(μ-O)₂(μ-S)(H₂O)₉]⁴⁺ (3) as main product. From solutions of 1 in HCl supramolecular adduct with cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) {[Mo₃O₂S₂(H₂O)₆Cl₃]₂CB[6]}Cl₂⋅18H₂O (4) was isolated and structurally characterized. The aqua complexes were converted into acetylacetonates [M₃O₂S₂(acac)₃(py)₃]PF₆ (M₃ = Mo₃, W₃, W₂Mo; 5a-c), which were characterized by X-ray single crystal analysis, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. Crystal structure of (H₅O₂)(Me₄N)₄[W₃(μ₃-S)(μ₂-S)(μ₂-O)₂(NCS)₉] (6), obtained from 2, is also reported.

Two new zincophosphites [C₆H₁₄N₂]_0.5[Zn(H₂PO₃)₂] 1 and [C₄H₁₂N₂]_0.5[(CH₃)₂NH₂][Zn₂(HPO₃)₃] 2 have been solvothermally synthesized in mixed solvents of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and 1,4-dioxane (DOA), respectively. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that compound 1 exhibits a neutral inorganic chain formed by ZnO₄ and HPO₂(OH) units. Interestingly, the left- and right-handed hydrogen-bonded helical chains are alternately formed via the hydrogen-bonds between two adjacent chains. Compound 2 exhibits a layer structure with 4- and 12-MRs formed by ZnO₄ and HPO₃ units, in which two kinds of organic amine molecules both act as countercations to compensate the overall negative electrostatic charge of the anionic network.     

Spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of a new nitrosyl-complex of Ru(II): trans-[Ru(NO){(CH3CH2)2PCH2CH2P(CH2CH3)2}2Cl](PF6)2

A new ruthenium nitric oxide complex with the bidentate phosphine, 1,2-bis(diethylphosphino)ethane (depe), has been synthesized and characterized by UV-Vis, infrared, EPR, NMR, electrochemical techniques and X-ray structure determination. The electronic spectrum showed a typical band of dπ→pπ* charge-transfer (CT) transition, assigned to Ru(II)NO transition, and the vibrational spectrum exhibited a peak of nitrosyl ligand at (ν_NO=1851 cm⁻¹). A model structure for this complex has been proposed based on ¹H, ¹H{³¹P}, ³¹P{¹H}, ¹³C{¹H}, COSY ¹H¹H{³¹P}, J-Resolved, HSQC, HMBC, HSQC ¹H¹³C{³¹P} and ¹H¹³C HSQC/¹H¹H TOCSY spectral data, and confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The nitrosonium character for the NO ligand become evident through both electron paramagnetic resonance and X-ray data (angle RuNO=177.4(3)°). The reversible monoeletronic process at E_1/2=0.040 V versus SHE was assigned to the ligand NO⁺/NO redox couple. Under treatment with Cd(Hg) solutions containing the [Ru(NO)(depe)₂Cl](PF₆)₂ yields a signal in the EPR spectrum (g_⊥=1.99 and g_//=1.88) which fitted quite well with the simulated spectra of coordinated NO species.     

Synthesis of tantalum and niobium complexes that contain the diamidoamine ligand, [(3,4,5-F3C6H2NCH2CH2)2NMe], and the triamidoamine ligand, [(3,5-Cl2C6H3NCH2CH2)3N]

Several niobium and tantalum compounds were prepared that contain either the diamidoamine ligand, [(3,4,5-F₃C₆H₂NCH₂CH₂)₂NMe]²⁻ ([F₃N₂NMe]²⁻), or the triamidoamine ligand, [(3,5-Cl₂C₆H₃NCH₂CH₂)₃N]³⁻ ([Cl₂N₂NMe]³⁻). The former include [F₃N₂NMe]TaCl₃, [F₃N₂NMe]NbCl₃, [F₃N₂NMe]TaMe₃, [F₃N₂NMe]NbMe₃, [(F₃N₂NMe)TaMe₂][MeB(C₆F₅)₃], [F₃N₂NMe]Ta(CHSiMe₃)(CH₂SiMe₃), [F₃N₂NMe]Ta(CH₂-t-Bu)Cl₂, [F₃N₂NMe]Ta(CH-t-Bu)(CH₃), and [F₃N₂NMe]Ta(η²-C₂H₄)(CH₂CH₃). The latter include [Cl₂N₂NMe]TaCl₂, [Cl₂N₂NMe]TaMe₂, [Cl₂N₂NMe]Ta(η²-C₂H₄), and [Cl₂N₂NMe]Ta(η²-C₂H₂).X-ray diffraction studies were carried out on [F₃N₂NMe]Ta(CHSiMe₃)(CH₂SiMe₃), [F₃N₂NMe]Ta(η²-C₂H₄)(CH₂CH₃), and [Cl₂N₂NMe]TaMe_2..     

Synthesis, structure and properties of TTF-carboxylate bridged paddlewheel dirhodium complexes, Rh2(BuCO2)3(TTFCO2) and Rh2(BuCO2)2(TTFCO2)2

Reaction of tetrathiafulvalene carboxylic acid (TTFCO₂H) with paddlewheel dirhodium complex Rh₂(Bu^tCO₂)₄ yielded TTFCO₂-bridged complexes Rh₂(Bu^tCO₂)₃(TTFCO₂) (1) and cis- and trans-Rh₂(Bu^tCO₂)₂(TTFCO₂)₂ (cis- and trans-2). Their triethylamine adducts [1(NEt₃)₂] and cis-[2(NEt₃)₂] were purified and isolated with chromatographic separation, and characterized with single crystal X-ray analysis. Trans-[2(NEt₃)₂] is not completely separated from a mixture of cis- and trans-[2(NEt₃)₂], but its single crystals were obtained from a solution of the mixture. A three-step quasi-reversible oxidation process was observed for 1 in MeCN. The first two steps correspond to the oxidation of the TTFCO₂ moiety and the last one is the oxidation of the Rh₂ core. The oxidation of cis-2 is observed as a two-step process with very similar E_1/2 values to those of the first two processes for 1. Both 1⁺ and cis-2²⁺ in MeCN at room temperature show isotropic ESR spectra with a g value of 2.008 and a_H = 0.135 mT for two equivalent H atoms and a_H = 0.068 mT for one H atom. The redox and ESR data of cis-2 suggest that the intramolecular interaction between the TTF moieties is very small.     

Syntheses, characterizations and crystal structures of two lead(II) diphosphonates: Pb2[NH(CH2PO3)2] · 2H2O and Pb3[HO2C(CH2)3NH(CH2PO3)2]2 · 2H2O

Hydrothermal reactions of lead(II) acetate and HO₂C(CH₂)₃N(CH₂PO₃H₂)₂ at 170 and 140 °C, respectively, resulted in two different lead diphosphonates, namely, Pb₂[NH(CH₂PO₃)₂] · 2H₂O (1), in which the butyric acid moiety of the HO₂C(CH₂)₃N(CH₂PO₃H₂)₂ has been cleaved and a novel layered compound, Pb₃[HO₂C(CH₂)₃NH(CH₂PO₃)₂]₂ · 2H₂O (2). Their crystal structures have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. In compound 1, the interconnection of the lead(II) ions by bridging amino-diphosphonate ligands leads to the formation of a 3D network. Compound 2 features an unusual triple-layer structure with the non-coordinated butyric acid moieties as pendant groups between the layers.
