A new natural ecdysteroid, 9beta,20-dihydroxyecdysone (1) and four related compounds 5alpha-20-hydroxyecdysone (2), 5alpha-2-deoxy-integristerone A (3), integristerone A (4) and 22-deoxy-integristerone A (5) were isolated from the herb of Silene italica ssp. nemoralis. Compound 1 is the C-9 epimer of the known 9alpha,20-dihydroxyecdysone (6) and represents a peculiar steroid skeleton. The structures of the compounds were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR, IR and MS spectroscopy. 相似文献

The title compound and its antipode with natural steroid configuration were synthesized and tested. Both compounds showed equal potency as anti-arrhythmic compounds. An additional effect found for the steroid with natural configuration was its plasma cholesterol lowering activity in the rat. This suggests that enantiosteroids may have a more selective action than the steroids with natural configuration 相似文献

The apolar fraction of the crude alcoholic extract of the sponge Euryspongia n. sp. was shown to display anti-inflammatory activity. Bioassay guided chromatographic purification led to the isolation of a known compound petrosterol (1) of 3beta-hydroxy-24-norchol-5-en-23-oic acid (2), which has never yet been found as a natural substance, and of a new steroid, 3beta-hydroxy-26-norcampest-5-en-25-oic acid (3). The absolute configurations of 2 and 3 were deduced from comparative 1H NMR data of the (S)- and (R)-phenylglycine methyl ester derivatives. These compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity against 6-keto-prostaglandinF1alpha release in a human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT. 相似文献

Association of steroid sulfatase with one of the arylsulfatase C isozymes in human fibroblasts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

When arylsulfatase C, a microsomal membrane-bound enzyme, is assayed with its natural substrates, the 3-beta-hydroxysteroid sulfates, it is also known as steroid sulfatase. Whether arylsulfatase C and steroid sulfatase are identical enzymes or not, however, has long been disputed. We now report that two electrophoretic variants of arylsulfatase C occur in normal human fibroblasts: one has a single anodic band of activity, "s," and the other has an additional faster migrating band, "f". The two types, s and "f + s", occur in cells from either sex. When fibroblast strains with the f + s forms of arylsulfatase C were cloned, two types of primary clones were always obtained: s and f + s. A single f band was never seen. When these primary clones were subcloned, however, the arylsulfatase C phenotype remained unchanged: primary s clones gave rise to s subclones and f + s clones to f + s subclones only. Therefore, these forms were clonal in origin and demonstrated a novel inheritance pattern in human cultured cells. The appearance of increasing amounts of the f band was correlated with up to 4-fold increase of arylsulfatase C activity, whereas the steroid sulfatase activity remained constant, thus demonstrating that arylsulfatase C was not identical with steroid sulfatase activity. Polyclonal antibodies raised against the s form immunoprecipitated activities of the s form of arylsulfatase C and steroid sulfatase but not the f form of arylsulfatase C. Therefore, we conclude that only the s form of arylsulfatase C is immunologically related to steroid sulfatase so that arylsulfatase C per se is not necessarily identical with steroid sulfatase. In addition, a novel form of genetic heterogeneity of isozymes in human fibroblasts is demonstrated. 相似文献

Mammalian paraoxonases (PONs 1, 2 and 3) are a highly conserved family of esterases, with uncertain physiological functions and natural substrates. Here we characterize the ability of purified recombinant human PONs to hydrolyze estrogen esters, a class of compounds previously not known to be PON substrates. PONs hydrolyzed estrogen mono- and diesters at position 3 of the steroid A-ring. Diesters were better substrates for the PONs and were very efficiently hydrolyzed, particularly by PON3. Esters at position 17 were not cleaved by the PONs unless an adjacent double bound was present. Purified human serum butyryl cholinesterase also hydrolyzed estrogen esters, however it preferably hydrolyzed the mono-esters. The ability of the PONs' to effectively hydrolyze a variety of estrogen esters provides further insight into the structure of their active sites and suggests that natural compounds with aromatic ester groups might be relevant substrates for the PONs. 相似文献

The retro steroids 17beta-hydroxy-5beta,9beta,10alpha-androstan-3-one and 5beta,9beta,10alpha-androstane-3,17-dione were good substrates for cortisone reductase in the presence of NADH, and the products corresponded to the respective 3beta-hydroxy compounds, in which the 3beta-hydroxyl group is axial and the absolute configuration is 3S. The analogous natural steroids 17beta-hydroxy-5beta,9alpha,10beta-androstan-3-one and 5beta,9alpha,10beta-androstane-3,17-dione were very poor substrates, and gave the corresponding 3alpha(equatorial,3R)-hydroxy compounds, and, in the latter case, also an appreciable amount of 3beta(axial, 3S)-hydroxy-5beta,9alpha,10beta-androstan-17-one. The natural steroids 17beta-hydroxy-5alpha,9alpha,10beta-androstan-3-one and 5alpha,9alpha,10beta-androstane-3,17-dione were better substrates than the retro steroid 17beta-hydroxy-5alpha,9beta,10alpha-androstan-3-one, but were not such good substrates as the retro steroids 17beta-hydroxy-5beta,9beta,10alpha-androstan-3-one and 5beta,9beta,10alpha-androstane-3,17-dione. Unlike these retro steroid 5beta,9beta,10alpha-androstan-3-ones, the natural steroids 17beta-hydroxy-5alpha,9alpha,10beta-androstan-3-one and 5alpha,9alpha,10beta-androstane-3,17-dione gave the corresponding 3alpha(axial,3R)-hydroxy compounds. The retro steroid 17beta-hydroxy-5alpha,9beta,10alpha-androstan-3-one was not a good substrate, and the product of reaction corresponded to the 3alpha(axial,3R)-hydroxy compound. The nature of substrate recognition by this enzyme is discussed in the light of these structure-activity relationships. 相似文献

Naturally occurring furanosteroids such as viridin and wortmannin have long been known as potent inhibitors of the lipid kinase PI-3K. We have been interested in directly accessing analogs of these complex natural products from abundant steroid feedstock materials. In this communication, we describe the synthesis of viridin/wortmannin hybrid molecules from readily available building blocks that function as PI-3K inhibitors and maintain their electrophilic properties. The compounds also show anti-proliferative effects against a breast cancer line. 相似文献

Currently, approximately 250 natural acetylenic epoxy structures are known. The present review describes research concerning biologically active epoxy acetylenic lipids and related compounds isolated from different sources. Intensive searches for new classes of pharmacologically potent agents produced by living organisms have resulted in the discovery of dozens of such compounds that possess high anticancer, cytotoxic, antibacterial, antiviral, and other activities. Acetylenic epoxides primarily belong to a class of molecules containing triple bond(s) and epoxy group(s) belonging to different lipid classes and/or other groups. This review emphasises natural and synthetic acetylenic epoxides and other related compounds as important sources of leads for drug discovery. The present review is the first article devoted to natural acetylenic epoxides. 相似文献

The synthesis of a 5,10-seco steroid containing two double bonds in a AB-macrocycle as well as the preparation of a steroidal skeleton with a cyclobutane fragment is described. The structures of these compounds are different from those of natural steroids, but they are very similar with respect to conformation of the carbon skeleton. 相似文献

Forty years of cytochrome P450 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
Omura T 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》1999,266(3):690-698
The term "cytochrome P450" first appeared in literature in 1962. It was a microsomal membrane-bound hemoprotein without known physiological functions at that time and was characterized by a unique 450-nm optical absorption peak of its carbon monoxide-bound form, which was originally reported as the spectrum of a novel "microsomal carbon monoxide-binding pigment" in 1958. Elucidation of its function as the oxygenase in 1963 triggered a rapid expansion of research on this hemoprotein. Annual numbers of the published papers dealing with cytochrome P450, which were listed in Biological Abstracts, increased from 60 in 1970 to 500 in 1980, 900 in 1990, and 1500 in 1997. Cytochrome P450 is now regarded as the collective name of a large family of hemoproteins, "cytochrome P450 superfamily, "which seems to have diversified from a single ancestral protein to many forms during the course of biological evolution and is distributed widely among various forms of life from animals and plants to fungi and bacteria. Multicellular eukaryotic organisms including animals and plants have about 100 or more P450 genes in their genomes, and those many P450 genes are expressed tissue specifically and developmental stage specifically, indicating their diverse physiological functions. In mammals, various P450s participate in the biosynthesis and metabolism of sterols and steroid hormones and the metabolism of various lipid biofactors including eicosanoids, vitamin D3, and retinoids. Oxidative metabolism of foreign hydrophobic compounds as the first step of their excretion from the animal body is apparently another major function of cytochrome P450, which protects animals from noxious foreign compounds, man-created and natural. 相似文献

To explore the possibility that adrenal hormones play a role in the natural termination of testicular function in chronically photo-stimulated tree sparrows, corticosterone, the principal adrenal steroid of birds, was implanted intracerebrally in photoresponsive tree sparrows 3 weeks after they were transferred to a gonadostimulatory photoregime. Three weeks later, plasmas were assayed for immunoreactive luteinizing hormone (LH), testes were weighed, and implantation sites were determined. When implanted in a region of the basal hypothalamus known to be androgen sensitive, corticosterone reduced the concentration of plasma LH and blocked testicular growth. Control implants in the optic chiasma or tracts were not gonadoinhibitory. These results confirm the potential for inhibition of gonadotropin secretion by an effect of corticosterone on the hypothalamohypophyseal axis, but the physiological significance and mechanism of corticosterone's antigonadotropic effect remain to be established. 相似文献

By-products of the transformation were studied, which were formed in the process of 11alpha and 11beta-hydroxylation of 21-acetate of the Reichstein substance "S" by the culture of Tieghemella orchidis. The following steroid derivatives, known before, were isolated: epihydrocortisone, 6beta-hydroxy derivative of the Reichstein substance "S", hydrocortisone, cortisone. The following steroid derivatives were isolated from the initial chloroform extract of the fermentation medium, and identified: prednisolone, androstendione, testololactone, and 1,2-dehydro derivatives of the Reichstein substance S" and its 21-acetate. The quantitative ratio between the products of transformation depended on the conditions of growth and transformation. These compounds seem to be intermediate metabolites in the course of the steroid destruction via the pathway common for fungi and involving the destruction of D ring of the steroid molecule. 相似文献

Six actodigin (AY-22,241) - related semisynthetic glycosides (with the C-3 natural linkage of the lactone ring to the steroid nucleus, transposed to C-2) were assayed in failing hearts of canine heart-lung preparations. Two compounds, with additional small modifications in the steroid nucleus, were incapable of reversing heart failure. Two others, an isodigoxigenin and an isogitoxigenin derivative, were only slightly active. However, the two other actodigin-derived compounds, with methyl groups at the lactane's C-4, were very active. Compound 5 had the methyl group in beta position and was 2.5 times more potent than actodigin. Compound 6, with the methyl group in alpha position, had a potency similar to that of actodigin. In the anesthetized and vagotomized dog, their toxic effects (to the point of atrioventricular dissociation) were short lasting and completely reversible. Both of these agents had a wide margin of safety (relationship between the minimal therapeutic, irregularity and lethal doses). 相似文献

Petromyzestrosterol (1), a novel polyhydroxylated steroid, was identified from water conditioned with sexually mature male sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus), a jawless vertebrate animal. Along with this novel steroid, two known steroids, 7α,12α,24-trihydroxy-5α-cholan-3-one-24-sulfate (3k PZS) and 7α,12α,24-trihydroxy-5α-cholan-24-sulfate (PZS), were isolated. Structures of these compounds were unequivocally established by spectroscopic analyses and by comparison with spectra of known compounds. Electro-olfactogram recordings (EOG) showed that 1 at nanomolar concentrations was stimulatory for the olfactory epithelium of adult females. 3k PZS, known to function as a male sex pheromone, was more stimulatory than 1 for the female olfactory epithelia. The concentration-response curve of 3k PZS was exponential in shape with steep slopes between 10(-10) and 10(-6) mol L(-1). The concentration-response curve for 1 was shallower than that for 3k PZS. 相似文献

Steroid glycosides extracted from the succulent plant Hoodia gordonii are suggested to have appetite-suppressant effects both in animals and humans. Yet, the mechanisms underlying the putative satiety action of Hoodia steroid glycosides are not fully understood. We found that H.g.-12, a steroid glycoside purified from H. gordonii extract, initiated cholecystokinin (CCK) secretion both ex vivo in rat intestine and in vitro in the human enteroendocrine (EC) cell line HuTu-80. CCK is known to exert central effects on appetite suppression via the vagus nerve which afferents terminate in the gut wall. Recent data show that G protein-coupled receptors signaling bitter taste (T2Rs) are expressed in both rodent and human gastrointestinal tract. It was further demonstrated that bitter sensing is functional in mouse STC-1 EC cells and leads to CCK secretion via increased intracellular Ca2(+) concentrations. Based on the bitter taste of H. gordonii purified extracts, we assessed whether H.g.-12 could activate human bitter receptors. The steroid glycoside activated selectively TAS2R7 and TAS2R14, both heterologously expressed in HEK 293 cells. Removing an essential structural feature from the steroid glycoside inhibited H.g.-12-induced Ca2(+) increase in TAS2R14-expressing HEK cells and abolished H.g.-12-induced CCK secretion from human EC cells. Similarly, a nonspecific bitter receptor antagonist abolished H.g.-12-induced CCK secretion in HuTu-80 cells. These results point to a potential route of action by which components of Hoodia might influence appetite control. Our data also provide additional evidence that bitter taste-sensing mechanisms are coupled to hormone release from EC cells in the intestine. Moreover, we identified a natural agonist of TAS2R7 and TAS2R14 for further studies on the role of bitter receptors in satiety control and food intake. 相似文献

The hexane- and ethyl acetate-soluble extracts of the leaves of Brassaiopsis glomerulata (Blume) Regel (Araliaceae), collected in Indonesia, were found to inhibit aromatase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the production of estrogens from androgens, in both enzyme- and cell-based aromatase inhibition (AI) assays. Bioassay-guided fractionation led to the isolation of six known compounds of the steroid and triterpenoid classes (1–6) from the hexane extract, of which 6β-hydroxystimasta-4-en-3-one (5), was moderately active in the cell-based AI assay. Fractionation of the ethyl acetate extract afforded seven pure isolates (7–13) of the modified peptide, fatty acid, monoterpenoid, and benzenoid types, including six known compounds and the new natural product, N-benzoyl-l-phenylalanine methyl ester (9). The absolute stereochemistry of 9 and the other two peptides, 7 and 8, was determined by Marfey’s analysis. Linoleic acid (10) was found to be active in the enzyme-based AI assay, while 9 and (?)-dehydrololiolide (12) showed activity in the cell-based AI assay. 相似文献
