Nitrones 4-7, structurally related to PBN (1), were prepared by reaction of the corresponding aromatic aldehydes with N-tert-butyl hydroxylamine. The protective effects of these nitrones against microvascular damages in ischemia/reperfusion in the 'hamster cheek pouch' assay were studied and 1, as well as 4a, 4b, and 7 (derived from piperonal, O-benzyl vanillin, and furfural, respectively), showed to be more active than shark cartilage or alpha-tocopherol. No correlation was found between the protective effect of these nitrones and their logP (partition coefficient) or their capacity to trap (*)OH and (*)CH(3) radicals. 相似文献

Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is a flavin-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative deamination of a variety of amine neurotransmitters and toxic amines. Although there have been several studies that support the intermediacy of an amine radical cation and an -radical during enzyme catalysis, there is no direct, i.e. EPR, evidence for these species as they are formed. Amino nitrones have been designed which, upon radical formation would produce an intermediate that is a resonance structure of the corresponding nitroxyl radical, which should be observable by EPR spectroscopy. Syntheses of seven different amino nitrones, three acyclic, and four cyclic analogues were attempted. The protected amino nitrones were stable, but all three of the acyclic amino nitrones were unstable. One of the cyclic analogues was very stable (39), one was stable only in organic solvents (40), one was stable only in aqueous medium below pH 6.5 (41), and the other (42) was stable for just a short time at room temperature, decomposing to a stable free radical. None of these analogues produced a MAO-catalyzed radical, yet 41 is a poor substrate (Km = 0.2 mM; kcat = 0.034 min−1) and 39 is a mixed inhibitor (Ki = 26.5 mM). Although this approach does not appear to be applicable to amino nitrones, it should be a valuable approach for other enzymes where radical intermediates are suspected and nonamine nitrones can be utilized. 相似文献

Out of 400 virtually designed imidazoline N-oxides, five cyclic nitrones were selected on the basis of PASS prediction as potent nootropics and were evaluated for their biological activities in albino mice. The selected N-alkyl and aryl-substituted nitrones were found to be excellent nootropics. A series of lead compounds acting as cognition enhancers have been provided, which can be further exploited in search of such New Chemical Entities (NCEs). 相似文献

Abstract: Oxidative damage in the CNS is proposed to play a role in many acute and chronic neurodegenerative disorders. Accordingly, the nitrone spin trap α-phenyl- N - tert -butylnitrone (PBN), which reacts covalently with free radicals, has shown efficacy in a variety of animal models of CNS injury. We have synthesized a number of cyclic variants of PBN and examined their activity as radical traps and protectants against oxidative damage in CNS tissue. By using electron spin resonance spectroscopy, the cyclic nitrones MDL 101,002 and MDL 102,832 were shown to trap radicals in a manner similar to that of PBN. All cyclic nitrones tested prevented hydroxyl radical-dependent degradation of 2-deoxyribose and peroxyl radical-dependent oxidation of synaptosomes more potently than PBN. The radical scavenging properties of the cyclic nitrones contributed to a three- to 25-fold increase in potency relative to PBN against oxidative damage and cytotoxicity in cerebellar granule cell cultures. Similar to the phenolic antioxidant MDL 74,722, the nitrones minimized seizures and delayed the time to death in mice following central injection of ferrous iron. Although iron-induced lipid peroxidation was inhibited by MDL 74,722, the nitrones had no effect on this biochemical end point, indicating that iron-induced mortality does not result solely from lipid peroxidation and suggesting additional neuroprotective properties for the nitrones. These results indicate that cyclic nitrones are more potent radical traps and inhibitors of lipid peroxidation in vitro than PBN, and their ability to delay significantly iron-induced mortality in vivo suggests they may be useful in the treatment of acute and chronic neurodegeneration. Furthermore, the stability of the spin trap adducts of the cyclic nitrones provides a new tool for the study of oxidative tissue injury. 相似文献

A method for the determination of 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine and 8-oxo-2'-deoxyadenosine in DNA and urine by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)-Tandem Mass Spectrometry is described. For the urine samples there is no sample preparation except for addition of buffer and internal standards followed by redissolvation of precipitate containing 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine and a centrifugation step before the samples are injected onto the HPLC column. The detection limit for 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine and 8-oxo-2'-deoxyadenosine is approximately 0.3 nM corresponding to 7.5 fmol injected. Long runs, that is, > 50 samples, can be analyzed with only minimal loss of sensitivity. The concentrations excreted into urine samples from humans are between 1 and 100 nM for 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine and below 0.3 nM for 8-oxo-2'-deoxyadenosine. In calf thymus DNA levels down to about 1 oxidized guanosine and adenosine per 10(6) unmodified bases can be detected. High levels of 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine were found, 30 per 10(6) 2'-deoxyguanosine, levels of 8-oxo-2'-deoxyadenosine are at or below the detection limit. These findings indicate that High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry is a highly sensitive and specific method for analysis of oxidative DNA modifications in tissue as well as for analysis of excretion of oxidized nucleotides into urine that ensures a minimum artifact formation. 相似文献

Nitrone-containing compounds are commonly employed as spin traps of free radical species in chemical and biological studies. Some molecules as α-phenyl-N-t-butyl nitrone (PBN) and its derivatives have been tested as potential drugs to treat oxidative stress related diseases, as Alzheimer and stroke for example. In this work we report the design and the synthesis of α-aryl-N-aryl nitrones and their cytoprotection profile on human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) under induced oxidative stress. All the nine synthesized nitrones showed a significant response at low micromolar concentration. The selected compound 8 (α-phenyl-N-phenyl nitrone) increased the reduced glutathione (GSH) levels by 65% and lowered the necrotic cell death from 25.8% to 3.8%. Based on our data, the designed highly conjugated nitrone double-bond skeleton can be considered as a good scaffold for further studies regarding oxidative stress-related diseases. 相似文献

Nitrones have the general chemical formula X-CH=NO-Y. They were first used to trap free radicals in chemical systems and then subsequently in biochemical systems. More recently several nitrones, including alpha-phenyl-tert-butylnitrone (PBN), have been shown to have potent biological activity in many experimental animal models. Many diseases of aging, including stroke, cancer development, Parkinson disease, and Alzheimer disease, are known to have enhanced levels of free radicals and oxidative stress. Some derivatives of PBN are significantly more potent than PBN and have undergone extensive commercial development for stroke. Recent research has shown that PBN-related nitrones also have anti-cancer activity in several experimental cancer models and have potential as therapeutics in some cancers. Also, in recent observations nitrones have been shown to act synergistically in combination with antioxidants in the prevention of acute acoustic-noise-induced hearing loss. The mechanistic basis of the potent biological activity of PBN-related nitrones is not known. Even though PBN-related nitrones do decrease oxidative stress and oxidative damage, their potent biological anti-inflammatory activity and their ability to alter cellular signaling processes cannot readily be explained by conventional notions of free radical trapping biochemistry. This review is focused on our studies and others in which the use of selected nitrones as novel therapeutics has been evaluated in experimental models in the context of free radical biochemical and cellular processes considered important in pathologic conditions and age-related diseases. 相似文献

8-Azidoflavins have been synthesized and their potential as photoaffinity labels for flavoproteins has been explored. They are very photolabile, and in aqueous media they react with solvent to yield 8-aminoflavins and 8-hydroxlaminoflavins as the main products. They fulfill the criteria expected of a good photoaffinity label, since they bind stoichiometrically at the flavin-binding site of flavoproteins, thus minimizing problems of nonspecific labeling. Second, they absorb strongly in the visible, so that the reactive nitrene can be generated without short wavelength light, minimizing the possibility of light-induced damage of the protein. Third, in the absence of light, 8-N3-flavins are stable, permitting a study of their binding to apoproteins. 8-Azidoflavins have been bound to hen egg white riboflavin-binding protein, Megasphera elsdenii flavodoxin, yeast Old Yellow Enzyme, Aspergillus niger, glucose oxidase, and pig kidney D-amino acid oxidase, and the effect of exposure to visible light has been determined. Only small extents of covalent attachment of the flavin to the protein were found with flavodoxin, D-amino acid oxidase, and Old Yellow Enzyme; much more extensive labeling was obtained with glucose oxidase and riboflavin-binding protein. In addition to their photoreactivity, 8-azidoflavins have been found to be converted to 8-aminoflavins by reaction with sulfite or upon reduction. Similar reactions occur with 8-hydroxylamino-, 8-(O-methyl)hydroxylamino-, and 8-hydrazinoflavins, which serve as models for possible flavin-protein covalent linkages which could be formed in the photolabeling procedure. Some of the properties of these flavins, which were obtained by reaction of 8-F-flavin with the corresponding nucleophiles, are also described. 相似文献

N-Alquil nitrones 1c and 3–6 were prepared from aromatic aldehydes and N-tert-butylhydroxylamine or N-methylhydroxylamine in good yields and soft conditions. Their protective effect against microvascular damages caused by ischemia/reperfusion in ‘hamster cheek pouch’ assay was investigated and compare with that observed for nitrones 1a,b and 2, previously studied. Nitrones 3b, 4b and 4c were the most active ones in inhibiting macromolecular permeability increase induced by ischemia/reperfusion when administered by gavage and intravenous, while 3a and 4a were active only after intravenous administration. N-tert-butylhydroxylamine and Nt-methylhydroxylamine, products of the hydrolysis of these nitrones, were weakly active when administered by gavage or intravenous. Nitrone (4a) was the most potent in inhibiting macromolecular permeability increase induced by histamine. In this case, N-tert-butylhydroxylamine was as active as 4a. The lypophylicity in nitrones, specially in N-methyl nitrones, play an important role on the protective action when compounds were administered by gavage. 相似文献

IL-1R8, also known as SIGIRR or TIR8, is a trans-membrane protein belonging to the IL-1 receptor family. The human gene includes ten exons, and alternative splicing can result in different isoforms. We, herein, characterized a longer isoform of IL-1R8 containing an in-frame additional sequence between the TIR domain and the C-terminal portion of the protein. IL-1R8 Long (IL-1R8L1) mRNA was specifically expressed and regulated in distinct cell lines, in a manner similar to the classic isoform. Overexpression of IL-1R8L1 resulted in the production of a corresponding protein that showed a pattern of cell localization similar to the classic isoform. An antibody directed against an IL-1R8L1 specific peptide, detected this novel isoform in different cell lines and tissues where this protein may complement the anti-inflammatory functions of classic IL-1R8. 相似文献

Nonstereospecific addition of free radicals to chiral nitrones yields cis/trans diastereoisomeric nitroxides often displaying different electron spin resonance (ESR) characteristics. Glutathione peroxidase-glutathione (GPx-GSH) reaction was applied to reduce the superoxide adducts (nitrone/*OOH) to the corresponding hydroxyl radical (HO*) adducts (nitrone/*OH) of two nitrones increasingly used in biological spin trapping, namely 5-diethoxyphosphoryl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DEPMPO) and 5-ethoxycarbonyl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide, and of 5-diisopropoxyphosphoryl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DIPPMPO), a sterically hindered DEPMPO analogue. The method offered improved conditions to record highly resolved ESR spectra and by accurate simulation of line asymmetry we obtained clear evidence for the existence of previously unrecognized isomer pairs of cis- and trans-[DEPMPO/*OH] and [DIPPMPO/*OH]. Additional nitrone/*OH generation methods were used, i.e. photolysis of hydrogen peroxide and the Fenton reaction. We developed a kinetic model involving first- and second-order decay and a secondary conversion of trans to cis isomer to fully account for the strongly configuration-dependent behavior of nitrone/*OH. In the reductive system and, to a lower extent, in the Fenton or photolytic systems cis-nitrone/*OH was the more stable diastereoisomer. In various biologically relevant milieu, we found that the cis:trans-nitrone/*OH ratio determined right after the spin adduct formation significantly differed upon the GPx-GSH vs (Fenton or photolytic) systems of formation. This new mechanistic ESR index consistently showed for all nitrones that nitrone/*OH signals detected in the postischemic effluents of ischemic isolated rat livers are the reduction products of primary nitrone/*OOH. Thus, ESR deconvolution of cis/trans diastereoisomers is of great interest in the study of HO* formation in biological systems. 相似文献

The synthesis, structure, theoretical and experimental in vitro antioxidant properties using the DPPH, ORAC, and benzoic acid, as well as preliminary in vitro pharmacological activities of (Z)-??-aryl and heteroaryl N-alkyl-nitrones 6-15, 18, 19, 21, and 23, is reported. In the in vitro antioxidant activity, for the DPPH radical test, only nitrones bearing free phenol groups gave the best RSA (%) values, nitrones 13 and 14 showing the highest values in this assay. In the ORAC analysis, the most potent radical scavenger was nitrone indole 21, followed by the N-benzyl benzene-type nitrones 10 and 15. Interestingly enough, the archetypal nitrone 7 (PBN) gave a low RSA value (1.4%) in the DPPH test, or was inactive in the ORAC assay. Concerning the ability to scavenge the hydroxyl radical, all the nitrones studied proved active in this experiment, showing high values in the 94-97% range, the most potent being nitrone 14. The theoretical calculations for the prediction of the antioxidant power, and the potential of ionization confirm that nitrones 9 and 10 are among the best compounds in electron transfer processes, a result that is also in good agreement with the experimental values in the DPPH assay. The calculated energy values for the reaction of ROS (hydroxyl, peroxyl) with the nitrones predict that the most favourable adduct-spin will take place between nitrones 9, 10, and 21, a fact that would be in agreement with their experimentally observed scavenger ability. The in vitro pharmacological analysis showed that the neuroprotective profile of the target molecules was in general low, with values ranging from 0% to 18.7%, in human neuroblastoma cells stressed with a mixture of rotenone/oligomycin-A, being nitrones 18, and 6-8 the most potent, as they show values in the range 24-18.4%. 相似文献

The use of nitrose compounds and nitrones as spin traps for the detection of short-lived inorganic radicals is discussed. To a certain degree nitrones and nitroso compounds are complementary. While nitroso compounds are superior with respect to spin trapping metal-centred radicals, nitrones form more persistent spin adducts with most small inorganic radicals.
Erroneous results may be obtained when hydrolysis and redox reactions involving the spin adducts are ignored. Spin trapping of pseudohalide radicals (·Nj· ·CN, ·SCN) are discussed in more detail. 相似文献

The CD8 glycoprotein plays important functions in T cell development and in T cell activation. In rodents, CD8 is a heterodimer, consisting of an alpha-chain (Lyt2) and a beta-chain (Lyt3). In humans, only the alpha-chain has been detected, and it has been thought that CD8 consists of homodimers of this protein. We have isolated functional cDNA clones encoding human CD8 beta, and show that the CD8 beta protein is expressed on the surface of CD8+ human T cells. cDNA clones encoding multiple forms of the human CD8 beta-chain have been isolated and characterized. These structural variants, which are likely to arise by alternative splicing, differ in the sequences encoding the cytoplasmic domain, which can consist of 19, 30, or 52 amino acids. One of the cDNAs lacks nucleotide sequences corresponding to a hydrophobic transmembrane domain, and may encode a secreted CD8 beta protein. The protein product of the human CD8 beta gene can be detected by a recently described anti-CD8 monoclonal antibody, 597. Expression of the epitope recognized by this antibody requires co-expression of the CD8 alpha and CD8 beta gene products. About 90% of human CD8 alpha positive thymocytes and peripheral blood lymphocytes express CD8 beta at the cell surface. Expression of the CD8 beta chain is thus conserved between human and rodents, and the variant CD8 beta polypeptides may have distinct roles in T cell function and development. 相似文献

Biosynthetic labeling with 35S-methionine and 35S-cysteine of isolated T4+ cells from Con A-activated T cells demonstrated that the T8 antigen was synthesized by activated T4+ cells. Two-color fluorescence analysis of the activated T cell population from which the T4+ fraction was obtained showed that both T4+T8- and T4+T8+ cells were present. The T8 antigen that was immunoprecipitated by monoclonal anti-T8 from activated T4+ cells migrated with an electrophoretic mobility corresponding to an m.w. of approximately 33,000, a previously reported m.w. value for T8 antigen. Con A activation of highly purified peripheral T4+T8- and T8+T4- subsets indicated that both T4+T8- and T8+T4- cells can give rise to T4+T8+ cells. However, substantial T4, T8 coexpression by T4+T8- cells required a signal from T8+T4- cells which could be supplied by incubating T4+T8- cells with irradiated T8+ cells or the supernatant from Con A-activated T8+T4- cells. The generation of T4+T8+ cells from a subset of T4+T8- T cells may be an important mechanism in immune activation and/or the further differentiation of peripheral T4+ cells. 相似文献

The alpha-chain of murine CD8 lacks an invariant Ig-like disulfide bond but contains a unique intrachain loop instead 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The CD8 Ag is a cell surface heterodimer which demarcates predominantly cytotoxic T cells which are restricted by class I MHC Ag. The disulfide bonds within the murine structure were assigned in this study and the alpha-beta-interchain bond involves one or more cysteine residues located in each chain proximal to the plasma membrane or included within it. The location of the intrachain disulfide loop within the CD8 beta-chain confirms its proposed structural homology to an IgV domain but no corresponding disulfide loop is present within the alpha-chain. The invariant IgV disulfide loop has been replaced by a unique, short loop involving an unusual cysteine which is conserved in the CD8 alpha-chains of man, mouse, and rat. Despite its lack of precedent in other Ig-related structures, this unusual disulfide loop can be parsimoniously accommodated into a modified domain which has retained the major features of the Ig structural motif. 相似文献

Although neuronal-precursor-cell-expressed developmentally downregulated protein-8 (NEDD8) and ubiquitin share the highest level of sequence identity and structural similarity among several known ubiquitin-like proteins, their conjugation to a protein leads to distinct biological consequences. In the study, we first identified the NEDD8 protein of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (CrNEDD8) and discovered that CrNEDD8 is fused at the C-terminus of a ubiquitin moiety (CrUb) in a head-to-tail arrangement. This CrUb-CrNEDD8 protein was termed CrRUB1 (related to ubiquitin 1) by analogy with a similar protein in Arabidopsis thaliana (AtRUB1). Since there is high sequence identity in comparison to the corresponding human proteins (97% for ubiquitin and 84% for NEDD8), a His-CrRUB1-glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion construct was adopted as the alternative substrate to characterize the specificity of NEDD8-specific peptidase SENP8 for CrNEDD8. The data showed that SENP8 only cleaved the peptide bond beyond the di-glycine motif of CrNEDD8 and His-RUB1 was subsequently generated, confirming that SENP8 has exquisite specificity for CrNEDD8 but not CrUb. To further determine the basis of this specificity, site-directed mutagenesis at earlier reported putative molecular determinants of NEDD8 specific recognition by SENP8 was performed. We found that a single N51E mutation of CrNEDD8 completely inhibited its hydrolysis by SENP8. Conversely, a single E51N mutation of CrUb enabled this ubiquitin mutant to undergo hydrolysis by SENP8, revealing that a single residue difference at the position 51 contributes substantially to the substrate selectivity of SENP8. Moreover, the E51N/R72A double mutant of the CrUb subdomain can further increase the efficiency of cleavage by SENP8, indicating that the residue at position 72 is also important in substrate recognition. The E51N or R72A mutation of CrUb also inhibited the hydrolysis of CrUb by ubiquitin-specific peptidase USP2. However, USP2 cannot cleave the N51E/A72R double mutant of the CrNEDD8 subdomain, suggesting that USP2 requires additional recognition sites. 相似文献

The cis/trans diastereoisomeric composition of hydroxyl radical adducts to chiral cyclic nitrones can be used to approach mechanisms of free radical formation in biological systems. Such determination is greatly simplified when both diastereoisomers have ESR spectra with at least two non-overlapping lines. To achieve this prerequisite, a series of DEPMPO-derived spin traps bearing one unsubstituted or alkyl-substituted 2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinane ring were synthesized and their structures were confirmed by X-ray diffraction, (1)H, (13)C and (31)P NMR. These CyDEPMPOs nitrones showed variable lipophilicities and LD(50) values on murine fibroblasts compatible with a safe use in biological spin trapping. All CyDEPMPOs formed persistent spin adducts with a series of free radicals, including superoxide and hydroxyl (i.e., CyDEPMPOs-OH) and the in vitro half-life times of these two latter were at least as extended as those of parent DEPMPO. Using four methods of CyDEPMPOs-OH formation, the cis-CyDEPMPOs-OH percentage was found significantly varied with substitution on the P-containing ring and, more interestingly, with the generating system. 相似文献

Fgf8 controls regional identity in the developing thalamus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The vertebrate thalamus contains multiple sensory nuclei and serves as a relay station to receive sensory information and project to corresponding cortical areas. During development, the progenitor region of the diencephalon is divided into three parts, p1, p2 (presumptive thalamus) and p3, along its longitudinal axis. Besides the local expression of signaling molecules such as sonic hedgehog (Shh), Wnt proteins and Fgf8, the patterning mechanisms of the thalamic nuclei are largely unknown. Using mouse in utero electroporation to overexpress or inhibit endogenous Fgf8 at the diencephalic p2/p3 border, we revealed that it affected gene expression only in the p2 region without altering overall diencephalic size or the expression of other signaling molecules. We demonstrated that two distinctive populations in p2, which can be distinguished by Ngn2 and Mash1 in early embryonic diencephalon, are controlled by Fgf8 activity in complementary manner. Furthermore, we found that FGF activity shifts thalamic sensory nuclei on the A/P axis in postnatal brain. Moreover, gene expression analysis demonstrated that FGF signaling shifts prethalamic nuclei in complementary manner to the thalamic shift. These findings suggest conserved roles of FGF signaling in patterning along the A/P axis in CNS, and reveal mechanisms of nucleogenesis in the developing thalamus. 相似文献

A general synthetic approach to various isoxanthopterin-nucleosides starting from 6-methyl-2-methylthio-4(3H),7(8H)-pterdinedione (1) has been developed. Ribosylation with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-ribofuranose via the silyl-method led to 2 and reaction with 1-chloro-2-deoxy-3,5-di-O-p-toluoyl-alpha-D-ribofuranose using the DBU-method afforded 28. Protection of the amide function at O4 by benzylation to 5 and by a Mitsunobu reaction with 2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethanol to 29 gave soluble intermediates which can be oxidized to the corresponding 2-methylsulfonyl derivatives 8 and 30, respectively. Nucleophilic displacement reactions of the highly reactive 2-methylsulfonyl functions by various amines proceeded under mild conditions to isoxanthopterin-N8-ribo- (11-17) and 2'-deoxyribomucleosides (31-33). Debenzylation can be achieve by Pd-catalyzed hydrogenation (9 to 19) and cleavage of the npe-protecting group (31, 32 to 34, 35) works well with DBU by beta-elimination. 相似文献
