The aim of the present study was to evaluate the potential pharmacological and toxicological properties of (E)-1-(1-(methylthio)-1-(selenopheny) hept-1-en-2-yl) pyrrolidin-2-one (compound 1), an organoselenium compound. In vitro experiments showed that compound 1 presented a reduction in the lipid peroxidation induced by Fe2? in thiobarbituric acid-reactive species (TBARS) production, and in the generation of reactive species caused by Fe2?/malonate in DCFH-DA oxidation. The high dose (500 mg/kg) induced an increase on ALT but not on AST activity. Hepatic, but not cerebral, δ-ALA-D activity from mice treated with 500 mg/kg presented a significant inhibition. Brain catalase activity was significantly inhibited by 100 mg/kg whereas hepatic catalase activity showed a significant increase at all doses. Hepatic lipid peroxidation was diminished only at lowest dose (100 mg/kg) whereas for brain tissue, all doses induced a significant reduction in TBARS levels. Brain and liver ascorbic acid contents were increased only at highest dose of compound 1. Urea and creatinine levels were not significantly altered by treatments. This is a promising compound with antioxidant activity and low toxicity, suggesting the potential beneficial activity of compound 1 against oxidative damage in many parameters studied in rats and mice. 相似文献

In order to replace the P2-P1 amide group, different 1-cycloalkenyls and 2-aryls were studied in the place of the P1 pyrrolidine group of a 4-phenylbutanoyl-L-Pro-pyrrolidine structure, which is a well-known prolyl oligopeptidase inhibitor SUAM-1221. The 1-cyclopentenyl and the 2-thienyl groups gave novel compounds, which were equipotent with the corresponding pyrrolidine-analog SUAM-1221. It was shown that the P2-P1 amide group of POP inhibitors can be replaced by an alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl group or the aryl conjugated carbonyl group. 相似文献

NMR structural characterization of cecropin A(1-8) - magainin 2(1-12) and cecropin A (1-8) - melittin (1-12) hybrid peptides. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In order to elucidate the structure-antibiotic activity relationships of the peptides, the three-dimensional structures of two hybrid peptides, CA(1-8) - MA(1-12) and CA(1-8) - ME(1-12) in trifluoroethanol-containing aqueous solution were investigated by NMR spectroscopy. Both CA(1-8) - MA(1-12) and CA(1-8) - ME(1-12) have strong antibacterial activity but only CA(1-8) - ME(1-12) has hemolytic activity against human erythrocytes. CA(1-8) - MA(1-12) has a hydrophobic 310-helix of only two turns combined with one short helix in the N-terminus with a flexible hinge section in between. CA(1-8) - MA(1-12) has a severely bent structure in the middle of the peptide. These structural features as well as the low hydrophobicity of CA(1-8) - MA(1-12) seem to be crucial for the selective lysis against the membrane of prokaryotic cells. CA(1-8) - ME(1-12) has an alpha-helical structure of about three turns in the melittin domain and a flexible structure with one turn in the cecropin domain connected with a flexible hinge section in between, and these might be the structural features required for membrane disruption against prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The central hinge region (Gly9-Ile10-Gly11) in an amphipathic antibacterial peptide is considered to play an important role in providing the conformational flexibility required for ion channel formation of the C-terminal hydrophobic alpha-helix on cell membrane. 相似文献

Solution conformation of asparagine-linked oligosaccharides: alpha(1-2)-, alpha(1-3)-, beta(1-2)-, and beta(1-4)-linked units 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The solution conformation is presented for representatives of each of the major classes of asparaginyl oligosaccharides. In this report the conformation of alpha(1-3)-, alpha(1-2)-, beta(1-2)-, and beta(1-4)-linked units is described. The conformational properties of these glycopeptides were determined by high-resolution 1H nuclear magnetic resonance in conjunction with potential energy calculations. The NMR parameters that were used in this analysis were chemical shifts and nuclear Overhauser enhancements. Potential energy calculations were used to evaluate the preferred conformers available for the different linkages in glycopeptides and to draw conclusions about the behavior in solution of these molecules. It was found that the linkage conformation of the Man alpha 1-3 residues was not affected by substitution either at the 2-position by alpha Man or beta GlcNAc or at the 4-position by beta GlcNAc or by the presence of a bisecting GlcNAc on the adjacent beta Man residue. 相似文献

A novel series of CCR1 antagonists based on the 1-(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)ethanone scaffold was identified by screening a compound library utilizing CCR1-expressing human THP-1 cells. SAR studies led to the discovery of the highly potent and selective CCR1 antagonist 14 (CCR1 binding IC50 = 4 nM using [125I]-CCL3 as the chemokine ligand). Compound 14 displayed promising pharmacokinetic and toxicological profiles in preclinical species. 相似文献

Novel 3-(arylsulfonyl)-1-(azacyclyl)-1H-indoles 6 were synthesized as potential 5-HT6 receptor ligands, based on constraining a basic side chain as either a piperidine or a pyrrolidine. Many of these compounds had good 5-HT6 binding affinity with Ki values <10 nM. Depending on substitution, both agonists (e.g., 6o: EC50 = 60 nM, Emax = 70%) and antagonists (6y: IC50 = 17 nM, Imax = 86%) were identified in a 5-HT6 adenylyl cyclase assay. 相似文献

The exposure of non-smokers to the tobacco-specific N-nitrosamine 4-(N-methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK), a rodent lung carcinogen, was determined in the air of various indoor environments as well as by biomonitoring of non-smokers exposed to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) under real-life conditions using the urinary NNK metabolites 4-(N-methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanol (NNAL) and [4-(N-methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)but-1-yl]-beta-O-D-glucosiduronic acid (NNAL-Gluc). NNK was not detectable (<0.5 ng m-3) in 11 rooms in which smoking did not occur. The mean NNK concentration in 19 rooms in which smoking took place was 17.5 (2.4-50.0) ng m-3. The NNK levels significantly correlated with the nicotine levels (r=0.856; p< 0.0001). Of the 29 non-smokers investigated, 12 exhibited no detectable NNAL and NNAL-Gluc excretion (<3 pmol day) in their urine. The mean urinary excretion of NNAL and NNAL-Gluc of the 17 remaining non-smokers was 20.3 (<3-63.2) and 22.9 (<3-90.0) pmol day-1, respectively. Total NNAL excretion (NNAL+NNAL-Gluc) in all non-smokers investigated significantly correlated with the amount of nicotine on personal samplers worn during the week prior to urine collection (r=0.88; <0.0001) and with the urinary cotinine levels (r=0.40; p=0.038). No correlation was found between NNAL excretion and the reported extent of ETS exposure. Average total NNAL excretion in the non-smokers with detectable NNAL levels was 74 times less than in 20 smokers who were also investigated. The cotinine/total NNAL ratios in urine of smokers (9900) and non-smokers (9300) were similar. This appears to be at variance with the ratios of the corresponding precursors (nicotine/NNK) in mainstream smoke (16400) and ETS (1000). Possible reasons for this discrepancy are discussed. The possible role of NNK as a lung carcinogen in non-smokers is unclear, especially since NNK exposure in non-smokers is several orders of magnitude lower than the ordinary exposure to exogenous and endogenous N-nitrosamines and the role of NNK as a human lung carcinogen is not fully understood. 相似文献

Antifungal activity of an adamantane derivative, i. e. 4-(adamantyl-1)-1-(1-aminobutyl) benzol was studied in experiments in vivo in a model of generalized infection and local skin injury. In doses of 0.1 LD50, 0.001 LD50, 0.001 LD50 (intraperitoneal administration) it had a therapeutic effect on generalized candidiasis and promoted 60-80-percent survival of the laboratory animals. Its application as 1-percent ointment to Candida albicans infected skin prevented the wound formation in rabbits and showed therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of infected wounds in albino rats. 相似文献

Ester analogs of (+/-)3-(4-(3-(bis(4-fluorophenyl)amino)propyl)piperazin-1-yl)-1-phenylpropan-1-ol were synthesized and evaluated for binding at DAT, SERT, NET, and sigma1 receptors, and compared to GBR 12909 and several known sigma1 receptor ligands. Most of these compounds demonstrated high affinity (K(i)=4.3-51 nM) and selectivity for the DAT among the monoamine transporters. S- and R-1-(4-(3-(bis(4-fluorophenyl)amino)propyl)piperazin-1-yl)-3-phenylpropan-2-ol were also prepared wherein modest enantioselectivity was demonstrated at the DAT. However, no enantioselectivity at sigma1 receptors was observed and most of the ester analogs of the more active S-enantiomer showed comparable binding affinities at both DAT and sigma1 receptors with a maximal 16-fold DAT/sigma1 selectivity. 相似文献

Endothelin (ET)-1(1-21) is known to play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute ischemic arrhythmia. In the present study, we attempted to determine whether administration of ET-1(1-31) would result in arrhythmia in perfused isolated rat hearts. Forty-eight Sprague-Dawley rats weighing approximately 250-350 g were randomized into 6 groups. Heart was isolated and perfused in a Langendorff mode. The effects of ET-1(1-31) on arrhythmia, heart rate, coronary flow, and heart function were analyzed. Perfusion with 1 nM ET-1(1-31) resulted in frequent ventricular ectopic beats (VEBs) and ventricular tachycardia (VT). Overall VEB was 128.0 (approximately 66.0-1015.0), and the arrhythmia score (AS) was 2.18 +/- 0.87; both were significantly higher than those of the control group (P < 0.01). Pretreatment with perfusion of 10 nM of the ETA-receptor antagonist BQ(123) markedly attenuated the occurrence of VEB and VT induced by ET-1(1-31). AS in 10 nM BQ123 group was significantly lower than that in 1 nM ET-1(1-31) group (P < 0.01). The arrhythmia induced by 1 nM ET-1(1-31) was partially but significantly reduced by phosphoramidon (1 microM), a neutral endopeptidase/ET-converting enzyme inhibitor. ET-1(1-31) per se caused arrhythmia in perfused isolated rat hearts. This arrhythmogenic action is in part mediated by ET(A) receptor and may be attributed mainly to the conversion of ET-1(1-31) to ET-1(1-21.). 相似文献

A sub-class of distinct small molecule ROMK inhibitors were developed from the original lead 1. Medicinal chemistry endeavors led to novel ROMK inhibitors with good ROMK functional potency and improved hERG selectivity. Two of the described ROMK inhibitors were characterized for the first in vivo proof-of-concept biology studies, and results from an acute rat diuresis model confirmed the hypothesis that ROMK inhibitors represent new mechanism diuretic and natriuretic agents. 相似文献

2-Pyrazolins 14a–l and pyrazoles 15a–l were designed as celecoxib analogs for the evaluation of their in vitro COX-1/COX-2 inhibitory activity and the in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. Compounds 14i, 15a, 15d and 15f were the most COX-2 selective derivatives (S.I. = 5.93, 6.08, 5.03 and 5.27 respectively) while the pyrazoline derivatives 14g and 14i exhibited the highest AI activity (ED50 = 190.5 and 160.1 μmol/kg po, respectively). 相似文献

Clinical studies indicate that cigarette smoking increases the risk for developing acute pancreatitis. The nicotine metabolite 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) is a major cigarette smoke toxin. We hypothesized that NNK could sensitize to pancreatitis and examined its effects in isolated rat pancreatic acini and in vivo. In acini, 100 nM NNK caused three- and fivefold activation of trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen, respectively, above control. Furthermore, NNK pretreatment in acini enhanced zymogen activation in a cerulein pancreatitis model. The long-term effects of NNK were examined in vivo after intraperitoneal injection of NNK (100 mg/kg body wt) three times weekly for 2 wk. NNK alone caused zymogen activation (6-fold for trypsinogen and 2-fold for chymotrypsinogen vs. control), vacuolization, pyknotic nuclei, and edema. This NNK pretreatment followed by treatment with cerulein (40 μg/kg) for 1 h to induce early pancreatitis responses enhanced trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen activation, as well as other parameters of pancreatitis, compared with cerulein alone. Potential targets of NNK include nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and β-adrenergic receptors; mRNA for both receptor types was detected in acinar cell preparations. Studies with pharmacological inhibitors of these receptors indicate that NNK can mediate acinar cell responses through an nonneuronal α(7)-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α(7)-nAChR). These studies suggest that prolonged exposure to this tobacco toxin can cause pancreatitis and sensitize to disease. Therapies targeting NNK-mediated pathways may prove useful in treatment of smoking-related pancreatitis. 相似文献

An in vitro study of effects of vitamin C-palmitate on the metabolism of 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) in rat microsomes was performed. A sensitive assay method has been developed for the detection of metabolites of NNK in microsomes. Only the reduced metabolite of NNK, 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-butanol (NNAL), was detected and measured in a time-course study. Vitamin C-palmitate enhanced the reduction of NNK in a concentration-dependent manner. The results indicate a significant increase in Vmax and Km in the presence of vitamin C. However, the rate of formation of NNAL at low substrate concentration varied. The ratio of Vmax to Km decreases. The results suggest that the kinetics are accounted for best by an uncompetitive activator binding model at low concentration of vitamin C. The uncompetitive binding model becomes sketchy at higher concentration of vitamin C. These observations infer that vitamin C loosely binds to the substrate-enzyme complex. Furthermore, the nature of the binding would facilitate the modulation of NNK biotransformation leading to the formation of NNAL. The results also show that vitamin C-palmitate is a potent activator of NNK reduction in rat liver microsomes. Thus, vitamin C-palmitate would mediate the metabolism of NNK through reduction. The resulting NNAL-glucuronide is more readily eliminated in urine. 相似文献
