Constituents of the venom (1) and Dufour's gland (25) have been characterized in an Australian representative of the highly evolved ant subfamily Formicinae. The venom reservoir of this ant, Camponotus intrepidus, contains formic acid, identified as the benzyl ester. The Dufour's gland contains a major hydrocarbon and a minor fatty acid fraction. Hydrocarbons include the normal alkanes, C10 to C17 (82 per cent); two series of monomethylalkanes, C12, C13, C14, C16, and C17, the 3-methyl derivatives comprise approximately 16 per cent, and the 5-methylalkanes 2 per cent of the total; there are trace proportions of the n-alkenes, C12, C13, and C15. The minor fatty acids, myristic, pentadecanoic, palmitic, and stearic are present in the ratio 2 : 2 : 12 : 11.  相似文献

IR spectroscopic studies are reported for N-stearyl-d-erythro-phytosphingosine (Cer NP) and N-stearyl-2-hydroxy-d-erythro-phytosphingosine (Cer AP) in a hydrated model of the skin lipid barrier comprised of equimolar mixtures of each ceramide with cholesterol and d35-stearic acid. Examination of the methylene stretching, rocking and bending modes reveal some rotational freedom and hexagonal packing in both the ceramide and stearic acid chains. Analysis of the acid carbonyl stretch and the ceramide Amide I modes show both shift to higher frequencies, indicating weaker hydrogen bonding, in the mixed systems compared to the pure materials. For both systems, the fatty acid chain disordering temperatures are significantly increased from those of the pure acids. The observed behaviors of these phytosphingosine ceramide systems are fundamentally different from the previously reported analogous sphingosine ceramide systems. The implications of these observations for lipid organization in the stratum corneum are briefly discussed.  相似文献

Increased exposure to estrogens and estrogen metabolites is linked with increased rates of breast, ovarian and other human cancers. Metabolism of estrogen can led to formation of electrophilic o-quinones capable of binding to DNA. In order to gain insight into the mechanism of estrogen-induced DNA damage, estrone and catechol estrogens derived from estrone, have been regioselectively labeled with deuterium at the 1-position. Estrone-1-d, estrone-1,2,4-d3, 4-hydroxyestrone-1-d and 2-hydroxyestrone-1-d have been synthesized with or without deuteriums at the 16-position. The key labeling step involves deuterated trifluoroacetic acid exchange catalyzed by t-butyl alcohol. This economical, straightforward labeling technique makes available a range of estrone compounds containing deuterium at the 1-position.  相似文献

Burkholderia multivorans causes opportunistic pulmonary infections in cystic fibrosis and immunocompromised patients. The purpose of the present study was to determine the nature of the phospholipids and their fatty acid constituents comprising the cell envelope membranes of strains isolated from three disparate sources. A conventional method for obtaining the readily extractable lipids fraction from bacteria was employed to obtain membrane lipids for thin-layer chromatographic and gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometric analyses. Major fatty acid components of the B. multivorans readily extractable lipid fractions included C16:0 (palmitic acid), C16:1 (palmitoleic acid), and C18:1 (oleic acid), while C14:0 (myristic acid), ΔC17:0 (methylene hexadecanoic acid), C18:0 (stearic acid), and ΔC19:0 (methylene octadecanoic acid) were present in lesser amounts. Fatty acid composition differed quantitatively among strains with regard to C16:0, C16:1, ΔC17:0, C18:1, and ΔC19:0 with the unsaturated:saturated fatty acid ratios being significantly less in a cystic fibrosis type strain than either environmental or chronic granulomatous disease strains. Phospholipids identified in all B. multivorans strains included lyso-phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and diphosphatidylglycerol in similar ratios. These data support the conclusion that the cell envelope phospholipid profiles of disparate B. multivorans strains are similar, while their respective fatty acyl substituent profiles differ quantitatively under identical cultivation conditions.  相似文献

The effects of adding D2SO4, and p-toluenesulfonic acid-d to D-cellobiose dissolved in D2O were investigated at 23 °C by plotting 13C NMR chemical shift changes (Δδ) against the acid to D-cellobiose molar ratio. 13C Chemical shifts of all 18 carbon signals from α and β anomers of D-cellobiose showed gradual decreases due to increasing acidity in aqueous D2SO4 medium. The C-1 of the α anomer showed a slightly higher response to increasing D+ concentration in the surrounding. In the aqueous p-toluenesulfonic acid-d medium, C-6′ and C-4′ carbons of both α, and β anomeric forms of D-cellobiose are significantly affected by increasing the sulfonic acid concentrations, and this may be due to a 1:1 interaction of p-toluenesulfonic acid-d with the C-6′, C-4′ region of the cellobiose molecule.  相似文献

The structure and composition of the cutin monomers from the flower petals of Vicia faba were determined by hydrogenolysis (LiAlH4) or deuterolysis (LiAlD4) followed by thin layer chromatography and combined gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. The major components were 10, 16-dihydroxyhexadecanoic acid (79.8%), 9, 16-dihydroxyhexadecanoic acid (4.2%), 16-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid (4.2%), 18-hydroxyoctadecanoic acid (1.6%), and hexadecanoic acid (2.4%). These results show that flower petal cutin is very similar to leaf cutin of V. faba. Developing petals readily incorporated exogenous [1-14C]palmitic acid into cutin. Direct conversion of the exogeneous acid into 16-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid, 10, 16-dihydroxy-, and 9, 16-dihydroxyhexadecanoic acid was demonstrated by radio gas-liquid chromatography of their chemical degradation products. About 1% of the exogenous [1-14C]palmitic acid was incorporated into C27, C29, and C31n-alkanes, which were identified by combined gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry as the major components of the hydrocarbons of V. faba flowers. The radioactivity distribution among these three alkanes (C27, 15%; C29, 48%; C31, 38%) was similar to the per cent composition of the alkanes (C27, 12%; C29, 43%; C31, 44%). [1-14C]Stearic acid was also incorporated into C27, C29, and C31n-alkanes in good yield (3%). Trichloroacetate, which has been postulated to be an inhibitor of fatty acid elongation, inhibited the conversion of [1-14C]stearic acid to alkanes, and the inhibition was greatest for the longer alkanes. Developing flower petals also incorporated exogenous C28, C30, and C32 acids into alkanes in 0.5% to 5% yields. [G-3H]n-octacosanoic acid (C28) was incorporated into C27, C29, and C31n-alkanes. [G-3H]n-triacontanoic acid (C30) was incorporated mainly into C29 and C31 alkanes, whereas [9, 10, 11-3H]n-dotriacontanoic acid (C32) was converted mainly to C31 alkane. Trichloroacetate inhibited the conversion of the exogenous acids into alkanes with carbon chains longer than the exogenous acid, and at the same time increased the amount of the direct decarboxylation product formed. These results clearly demonstrate direct decarboxylation as well as elongation and decarboxylation of exogenous fatty acids, and thus constitute the most direct evidence thus far obtained for an elongation-decarboxylation mechanism for the biosynthesis of alkanes.  相似文献

Key message

Two new sources of elevated seed stearic acid were identified and the feasibility of an elevated stearic acid, high oleic acid germplasm was studied.

Abstract

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] oil typically contains 2–4 % stearic acid. Oil with at least 20 % stearic acid is desirable because of its improved baking properties and health profile. This study identifies two new sources of high stearic acid and evaluates the interaction of high stearic and oleic acid alleles. TCHM08-1087 and TCHM08-755, high stearic acid ‘Holladay’ mutants, were crossed to FAM94-41-3, a line containing a point mutation in a seed-specific isoform of a Δ9-stearoyl-acyl carrier protein-desaturase (SACPD-C). F2-derived lines were evaluated for fatty acid content in four field environments. Sequencing of SACPDs in TCHM08-1087 and TCHM08-755 revealed distinct deletions of at least one megabase encompassing SACPD-C in both lines. After genotyping, the additive effect for stearic acid was estimated at +1.8 % for the SACPD-C point mutation and +4.1 % for the SACPD-C deletions. Average stearic acid in lines homozygous for the deletions was 12.2 %. A FAM94-41-3-derived line and TCHM08-1087-11, a selection from TCHM08-1087, were crossed to S09-2902-145, a line containing missense mutations in two fatty acid desaturases (FAD2-1A and FAD2-1B). F1 plants were grown in a greenhouse and individual F2 seed were genotyped and phenotyped. No interaction was observed between either FAD2-1A or FAD2-1B and any of the SACPD-C mutant alleles. Seed homozygous mutant for SACPD-C/FAD2-1A/FAD2-1B contained 12.7 % stearic acid and 65.5 % oleic acid while seed homozygous for the SACPD-C deletion and mutant for FAD2-1A and FAD2-1B averaged 10.4 % stearic acid and 75.9 % oleic acid.  相似文献

Structure elucidations have been performed on the bilirubin conjugates isolated from human hepatic bile as the phenylazo derivatives. The major bilirubin conjugates are excreted, not as was formerly thought in the form of glucuronides, but as the acyl glycosides of aldobiouronic acid, pseudoaldobiouronic acid and hexuronosylhexuronic acid. The isolated aldobiouronides are proposed to have the structures of an acyl 6-O-hexopyranosyluronic acid-hexopyranoside, an acyl 4-O-hexofuranosyluronic acid-d-glucopyranoside, and an acyl 4-O-β-d-glucofuranosyluronic acid-d-glucopyranoside respectively, with the acyl radicals being those of the phenylazo derivative of bilirubin. The pseudoaldobiouronide is suggested to be the acyl 4-O-α-d-glucofuranosyl-β-d -glucopyranosiduronic acid, with the acyl radical being that of the phenylazo derivative of vinylneoxanthobilirubinic acid. The hexuronosylhexuronide presumably is the acyl 4-O-(3-C-hydroxymethylribofuranosyluronic acid)-β-d-glucopyranosiduronic acid, with the acyl radical being that of the phenylazo derivative of bilirubin. The 3-C-hydroxymethylriburonic acid, isolated as one of the components of the hexuronosylhexuronide, is the first natural branched-chain hexuronic acid to be detected, and the first branched-chain sugar ever detected in humans.  相似文献

Lipid and fatty acid compositions were determined for chloroplast envelope membranes isolated from spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.), sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), and maize (Zea mays L.) leaves. The lipid composition was similar in sunflower, spinach, and undifferentiated maize chloroplast envelope membranes and different in maize mesophyll chloroplast envelope membranes. The predominant lipid constituents in all envelope membranes were monogalactosyldiglyceride (27 to 46%), digalactosyldiglyceride (18 to 33%), and phosphatidylcholine (7 to 30%). The fatty acid composition was also similar in sunflower and spinach chloroplast envelope membranes in comparison to those from maize. The major acyl fatty acids of the chloroplast envelope membrane were palmitic (C16:0, 41 and 36%) and linolenic (C18:3, 29 and 40%) acids for spinach and sunflower; palmitic (77%) and stearic (C18:0, 12%) acids for young maize; and palmitic (61%), stearic (14%), and linolenic (13%) acids for mature maize. The differences in lipid and acyl fatty acid compositions among these plants which vary in their rates of net photosynthesis were largely quantitative rather than qualitative.  相似文献

Gibberellin A1 (GA1), 3-epi-GA1, GA4, GA9, 11α-hydroxyGA12, 12α-hydroxyGA12, GA15, GA17, GA19, GA20, GA25, GA37, GA40, GA58, GA69, GA70, and GA71 have been identified from Kovats retention indices and full scan mass spectra by capillary GC-MS analyses of purified extracts from sporophytes of the tree fern, Cibotium glaucum. Abscisic acid, dihydrophaseic acid, an epimer of 4′-dihydrophaseic acid, and the epimeric ent-6α, 7α, 16α, 17-(OH)4 and ent-6α, 7α, 16β, 17-(OH)4 derivatives of ent16, 17-dihydrokaurenoic acid, in addition to the epimeric 16α, 17- and 16β, 17-dihydroxy-16, 17-dihydro derivatives of GA12, were also identified in extracts of C. glaucum. An oxodihydrophaseic acid and a hydroxydihydrophaseic acid were also detected. In extracts of sporophytes of Dicksonia antarctica, GA4, GA9, 12α- and 12β-hydroxyGA12, GA15, GA25, and GA37 were identified by the same criteria, as well as abscisic acid, phaseic acid, 8′-hydroxymethylabscisic acid and dihydrophaseic acid. This is the first time that GA40 has been identified in a higher plant; it is also the first report of the natural occurrence of the two gibberellins, 11α- and 12β-hydroxyGA12. The total gibberellin (GA) content in C. glaucum (tall) was at least one order of magnitude greater than that of D. antarctica (dwarf) based on total ion current response in GC-MS and bioassay data. Abscisic acid was a major component of D. antarctica and the oxodihydrophaseic acid was a major component of C. glaucum.  相似文献

We report here that Tyrophagus similis and Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Astigmata: Acaridae) have the ability to biosynthesize linoleic acid [(9Z, 12Z)-9, 12-octadecadienoic acid] via a Δ12-desaturation step, although animals in general and vertebrates in particular appear to lack this ability. When the mites were fed on dried yeast enriched with d31-hexadecanoic acid (16:0), d27-octadecadienoic acid (18:2), produced from d31-hexadecanoic acid through elongation and desaturation reactions, was identified as a major fatty acid component of phosphatidylcholines (PCs) and phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs) in the mites. The double bond position of d27-octadecadienoic acid (18:2) of PCs and PEs was determined to be 9 and 12, respectively by dimethyldisulfide (DMDS) derivatization. Furthermore, the GC/MS retention time of methyl 9, 12-octadecadienoate obtained from mite extracts agreed well with those of authentic linoleic acid methyl ester. It is still unclear whether the mites themselves or symbiotic microorganisms are responsible for inserting a double bond into the Δ12 position of octadecanoic acid. However, we present here the unique metabolism of fatty acids in the mites.  相似文献

Two to three days after harvesting, cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) roots suffer from post-harvest physiological deterioration (PPD) when secondary metabolites are accumulated. Amongst these are hydroxycoumarins (e.g. scopoletin and its glucoside scopolin) which play roles in plant defence and have pharmacological activities. Some steps in the biosynthesis of these molecules are still unknown in cassava and in other plants. We exploit the accumulation of these coumarins during PPD to investigate the E-Z-isomerisation step in their biosynthesis. Feeding cubed cassava roots with E-cinnamic-3,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-d5 acid gave scopoletin-d2. However, feeding with E-cinnamic-3,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-d6 and E-cinnamic-2,3,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-d7 acids, both gave scopoletin-d3, the latter not affording the expected scopoletin-d4. We therefore synthesised and fed with E-cinnamic-2-d1 when unlabelled scopoletin was biosynthesised. Solely the hydrogen (or deuterium) at C2 of cinnamic acid is exchanged in the biosynthesis of hydroxycoumarins. If the mechanism of E-Z-cinnamic acid isomerisation were photochemical, we would not expect to see the loss of deuterium which we observed. Therefore, a possible mechanism is an enzyme catalysed 1,4-Michael addition, followed by σ-bond rotation and hydrogen (or deuterium) elimination to yield the Z-isomer. Feeding the roots under light and dark conditions with E-cinnamic-2,3,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-d7 acid gave scopoletin-d3 with no significant difference in the yields. We conclude that the E-Z-isomerisation stage in the biosynthesis of scopoletin and scopolin, in cassava roots during PPD, is not photochemical, but could be catalysed by an isomerase which is independent of light.  相似文献

To assign the observed vibrationsl modes in the resonance Raman spectrum of the retinylidene chromophore of rhodopsin, we have studied chemically modified retinals. The series of analogs investigated are the n-butyl retinals substituted at C9 and C13. The results obtained for the 11-cis isomer have clearly assigned the CCH3 vibrational frequencies observed in the spectrum of the retinylidene chromophore. The data show that the C(9)CH3 stretching vibration can be assigned to the vibrational mode observed in the 1017 cm?1 region, and the vibration detected at 997 cm?1 can be assigned to the C(13CH3 vibration. The C(5)CH3 stretching mode does not contribute to the vibrations observed in this region. The splitting in the C(n)CH3 (n = 9, 13) vibration is characteristic of the 11-cis conformation. The results on the modified retinals do not support the hypothesis that the splitting arises from equilibrium mixtures of 11-cis, 12-s-cis and 11-cis, 12-s-trans in solution. Thus, this splitting cannot be used to determine whether the chromophore in rhodopsin is in a 12-s-cis or 12-s-trans conformation. However, our results demonstrate that there are other vibrational modes in the spectra which are sensitive to this conformational equilibrium and we use the presence of a strong ~ 1271 cm?1 mode in bovine and squid rhodopsin spectra as an indication that the chromophore in these pigments is 11-cis, 12-s-trans.  相似文献

Three cytochrome P450 monooxygenase CYP52 gene family members were isolated from the sophorolipid-producing yeast Starmerella bombicola (former Candida bombicola), namely, CYP52E3, CYP52M1, and CYP52N1, and their open reading frames were cloned into the pYES2 vector for expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The functions of the recombinant proteins were analyzed with a variety of alkane and fatty acid substrates using microsome proteins or a whole-cell system. CYP52M1 was found to oxidize C16 to C20 fatty acids preferentially. It converted oleic acid (C18:1) more efficiently than stearic acid (C18:0) and linoleic acid (C18:2) and much more effectively than α-linolenic acid (C18:3). No products were detected when C10 to C12 fatty acids were used as the substrates. Moreover, CYP52M1 hydroxylated fatty acids at their ω- and ω-1 positions. CYP52N1 oxidized C14 to C20 saturated and unsaturated fatty acids and preferentially oxidized palmitic acid, oleic acid, and linoleic acid. It only catalyzed ω-hydroxylation of fatty acids. Minor ω-hydroxylation activity against myristic acid, palmitic acid, palmitoleic acid, and oleic acid was shown for CYP52E3. Furthermore, the three P450s were coassayed with glucosyltransferase UGTA1. UGTA1 glycosylated all hydroxyl fatty acids generated by CYP52E3, CYP52M1, and CYP52N1. The transformation efficiency of fatty acids into glucolipids by CYP52M1/UGTA1 was much higher than those by CYP52N1/UGTA1 and CYP52E3/UGTA1. Taken together, CYP52M1 is demonstrated to be involved in the biosynthesis of sophorolipid, whereas CYP52E3 and CYP52N1 might be involved in alkane metabolism in S. bombicola but downstream of the initial oxidation steps.  相似文献

A series of 2-O-benzoyl-4,6-di-O-benzyl-α-d-galactopyranosyl halides carrying either a second benzoyl group (8a, 12a) or a selectively removable, temporary protecting group (8b–d, 12b) at position 3 was synthesized from allyl α-d-galactopyranoside (1). The key intermediate was 1-propenyl 4,6-di-O-benzyl-α-d-galactopyranoside (5), prepared from 1 via the 4,6-O-benzylidene-2,3-di-O-crotyl derivative 2. The successive incorporation of the 2-O-benzoyl group, by selective acylation at low temperature, and of various 3-substituents gave fully substituted 1-propenyl α-d-galactopyranosides 6a–d. These were converted into the glycosyl halides by published methods. An improved preparation of allyl 2,6-di-O-benzyl-(15) and 2,4,6-tri-O-benzyl-(19) α-d-galactopyranoside was achieved. The direct acetonation of 1 to the 3,4-O-isopropylidene derivative 13, followed by benzylation and mild acid hydrolysis, gave 15 in 56% yield. The transient protection of O-3 in 15 was accomplished by the alkylation of the dibutylstannylene derivative 16 with (2-methoxyethoxy)methyl chloride. Successive benzylation and mild acid hydrolysis of the product 17 efficiently furnished 19.  相似文献

The rumen is characterised by a complex microbial ecosystem, which is particularly active in lipid metabolism. Several studies demonstrated a role of diet and breed on bacterial community profile, with the effect on metabolic pathways. Despite the knowledge achieved on metabolism and the bacterial profile, little is known about the relationship between individual bacteria and metabolic pathways. Therefore, a multivariate approach was used to search for possible relationships between bacteria and products of several pathways. The correlation between rumen bacterial community composition and rumen lipid metabolism was assessed in 40 beef steers (20 Maremmana and 20 Aubrac) reared with the same system and fed the same diet. A canonical discriminant analysis combined with a canonical correlation analysis (CCA) was performed to explore this correlation. The variables showing a Pearson correlation higher than 0.6 as absolute value and significant were retained for CCA considering the relationship of bacterial composition with several metabolic pathways. The results indicated that some bacterial genera could have significant impacts on the presence of several fatty acids. However, the relationship between genera and fatty acid changes according to the breed, demonstrating that the metabolic pathways change according to the host genetic background, related to breed evolution, although there is also an intra-breed genetic background which should not be ignored. In Maremmana, Succiniclasticum and Rikenellaceae_RC9_gut_group showed a high positive correlation with dimethylacetals (DMAs) DMAC13:0, DMAC14:0, DMAC14:0iso, DMAC15:0, DMAC15:0iso, and DMAC18:0. Prevotellaceae_UCG-003 correlates with C18:3c9c12c15 and C18:1t11, while Fibrobacter and Succiniclasticum correlate with C18:2c9t11 and Lachnospiraceae_NK3A20_group correlates with C18:1c12. Prevotellaceae_UCG-003, Ruminococcaceae_UCG-010, and Oribacterium showed a positive correlation with C13:0iso, and C17:0. Conversely, in Aubrac, Treponema_2 and Rikenellaceae_RC9_gut_group correlated with DMAC14:0iso, DMAC16:0iso, DMAC17:0iso, while Ruminococcaceae_UCG-010, Christensenellaceae_R-7_group and Ruminococcaceae_NK4A214_group correlated with DMAC18:1t11, DMAC14:0, DMAC18:1c12. Acetitomaculum correlated with C18:2c9c12, C18:1c12, C18:1c13, C18:1t12 and Lachnospiraceae_NK3A20_group with C18:1t6-8 and C18:1t9. Saccharofermentas, Ruminococcaceae_UCG-010 and Rikenellaceae_RC9_gut_group correlated with C18:2c9t11 while, Prevotellaceae_UCG-001 and Ruminococcus_1 correlated with C14:0iso, C15:0, C15:0iso, C17:0. Saccharofermentans, Rikenellaceae_RC9_gut_group, Ruminococcaceae_NK4A214_group, and Ruminococcaceae_UCG-010 correlated with C13:1c12 and C16:0iso. These results lead to hypothesise a possible association between several metabolic pathways and one or a few bacterial genera. If these associations are confirmed by further investigations that verify the causality of a bacterial genus with a particular metabolic process, it will be possible to deepen the knowledge on the activity of the rumen population in lipid metabolism. This approach appears to be a promising tool for uncovering the correlation between bacterial genera and products of rumen lipid metabolism.  相似文献

Four new diterpenes have been isolated from Sideritis serata: lagascol (4, ent-8,5-friedopimar-5-ene-15S,16-diol), tobarrol (8, ent-15-beyerene-12α,17-diol), benuol (12, ent-15-beyerene-7α,17-diol) and serradiol (18, ent-16R-atis-13-ene-16,17-diol). The previously known diterpenes lagascatriol (1, ent-8,5-friedopimar-5-ene-11β,15S,16-triol), jativatriol (2, ent-15-beyerene-1β,12α,17-triol), conchitriol (3, ent-15-beyerene-7α,12α,17-triol) and sideritol (17, ent-16R-atis-13-ene-1β,16,17-triol) have also been obtained from the same source.  相似文献

The fatty acid composition of the total lipid fractions of five different Leishmania organisms grown on Eagle's medium was determined by gas chromatography. The major fatty acids identified in the total lipid fractions of L. donovani, L. tropica major, L. tropica minor, L. tropica (England strain), and L. enriettii were C12:0, C13:0, C14:0, C15:0, C16:0, C17:0, C18:0, C18:1, C18:2, and C18:3. The statistical differences among the fatty acid methyl esters of different Leishmania organisms are discussed.Gas chromatographic analysis of the fatty acid methyl esters of the total lipid fractions of the original Eagle's medium and the media after harvesting of various Leishmania species revealed the presence of C18:3 fatty acid in the total lipid fraction of the medium of L. donovani and the complete absence of 18-carbon unsaturated fatty acids in the total lipid fraction of the medium of L. enriettii. The use of such differences in the differentiation of various Leishmania species is discussed.  相似文献

In our attempt to develop effective EGFR-TKIs, two series of 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives were designed and synthesized. All the newly synthesized compounds were evaluated in vitro for their inhibitory activities against EGFRWT. Compounds 15b, 15j, and 18d potently inhibited EGFRWT at sub-micro molar IC50 values comparable to that of erlotinib. Moreover, thirteen compounds that showed promising IC50 values against EGFRWT were tested in vitro for their inhibitory activities against mutant EGFRT790M. Compounds 17d and 17f exhibited potent inhibitory activities towards EGFRT790M comparable to osimertinib. Compounds that showed promising IC50 values against EGFRWT were further tested for their anti-proliferative activities against three cancer cell lines bearing EGFRWT (MCF-7, HepG2, A549), and two cancer cell lines bearing EGFRT790M (H1975 and HCC827). Compounds 15g, 15j, 15n, 18d and 18e were the most potent anticancer agents against the EGFRWT containing cells, while compounds 15e, 17d and 17f showed promising anti-proliferative activities against EGFRT790M containing cells. Furthermore, the most active compound 18d was selected for further studies regarding to its effects on cell cycle progression and induction of apoptosis in the HepG2 cell line. The results indicated that this compound is good apoptotic agent and arrests G0/G1and G2/M phases of cell cycle. Finally, molecular docking studies were performed to investigate binding pattern of the synthesized compounds with the prospective targets, EGFRWT (PDB: 4HJO) and EGFRT790M (PDB: 3W2O).  相似文献

Aqueous solution ofD-ribose (10?2M) saturated with N2O and N2O/O2 (4/1) were γ-irradiated (dose rate: 3.85 x 1018 eV.g?1.h?1) at room temperature. The following products were identified:D-ribonic acid (1). D-erythro-pentos-2-ulose (2). D-erythro-pentos-4-ulose (3),D-erythro-pentos-3-ulose (4), D-ribo-pentodialdose (5), 2-deoxy-D-erythro-pentonic acid (6), 2-deoxypentos-3-ulose (7)(7), 4-deoxylpentos-3-ulose (8), 3-deoxypentos-4-ulose (9), 3-deoxypentos-2-ulose (10), 5-deoxypentos-4-ulose (11), erythrose (12), erythro-tetrodialdose (13), erythronic acid (14), threose/erythrulose (15). threonic acid (16), 2-deoxytetrose (17), and glyceraldehyde (18). In deoxygenated solutions, 13, 14, and 16 were absent. In the presence of oxygen, the formation of 611 and 17 was suppressed. From quantitative measurements, G-values were calculated for both deoxygenated and oxygenated conditions. Five different, primary, ribosyl radicals are formed which, in deoxygenated solution, undergo disproportionation reactions (to give 1-5), and transformations such as elimination of water and carbon monoxide followed by disproportionation reactions (to give6-12.17). Material-balance considerations indicate the formation of dimers (not measured). In oxygenated solutions, oxygen rapidly adds to the primary ribosyl radicals, thus preventing the transformation reactions, and the main products are 15 and 13. Possible mechanistic routes are discussed. The attack of HO radicals on D-ribose involves C-1, ~20%; C-2 and C-4, ~35%: C-3, ~ 20%; and C-5, ~25%  相似文献
