A series of bi- and tricyclic β-lactam compounds was synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of cleavage of synthetic substrates in vitro by the serine proteases Human Leukocyte Elastase (HLE), Human Leukocyte Proteinase 3 (HLPR3) and Porcine Pancreatic Elastase (PPE). The obtained results have permitted us to describe a homobenzocarbacephem compound as HLE and HLPR3 inhibitor, to observe the positive effect that the styryl group exerts on the HLE inhibitory activity in polycyclic β-lactam compounds and to conclude that the hydroxyl function decreases the HLE inhibitory activity or rules it out completely. 相似文献

Kinetics of inhibition have been determined for the interaction of human leukocyte elastase (HLE) with two series of peptide trifluoromethyl ketones (TFMKs): X-Val-CF3,X-Pro-Val-CF3,X-Val-Pro-Val-CF3, and X-Lys(Z)-Val-Pro-Val-CF3, where X is MeOSuc or Z. These compounds are "slow-binding" inhibitors of HLE and, thus, allow the determination of Ki, the dissociation constant for the stable complex of inhibitor and enzyme, as well as kon and koff, the rate constants for formation and decomposition of this complex. Maximal potency is reached with Z-Lys(Z)-Val-Pro-Val-CF3, which displays a Ki less than 0.1 nM. Upon binding to HLE, these compounds undergo addition by the hydroxyl of the active site serine to form a hemiketal. The evidence supporting a hemiketal intermediate includes Ki values of 1.6 and 80,000 nM for Z-Val-Pro-Val-CF3 and its alcohol analogue, linear free energy correlations between inhibitory potency and catalytic efficiency for structurally related TFMKs and substrates, and the pH dependence of kon for the inhibition of HLE by Z-Val-Pro-Val-CF3, which is sigmoidal and displays a pKa of 6.9. Hemiketal formation is probably not rate limiting, however. Kinetic solvent isotope effects of unity suggest that kon cannot be rate limited by a reaction step, like hemiketal formation, that is subject to protolytic catalysis. A general mechanism that is consistent with these results is one in which formation of the hemiketal is rapid and is followed or preceded by a slow step that rate limits kon.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

As a part of an investigation on molecular hybrids as new serine protease inhibitors, the pyrazolo [4,3-c][1,2,5]oxadiazin-3(5H)-one ring system was selected as a model of potential mechanism-based inhibitors. Due to the inherent reactivity of this system an optimal balance between susceptibility to nucleophilic attack and stability in solvents was sought prior to development as therapeutic agents. Substitutions on N5 and C7 of the supporting pyrazole ring with either aliphatic or aromatic groups (compounds 2 a-m) and the replacement of the carbonyl oxygen on the reactive oxadiazinone ring with sulfur (compounds 3a,i) were explored. Two members (2i and 2k) of this class of inhibitors displayed time-dependent inhibition of HLE suggesting mechanism-based inhibition. The observation that HLE generated a product(s) from compound 2i which displayed an identical UV-Visible spectrum to that observed during non-enzymatic hydrolysis further supports this proposal. FlexX-based docking of these compounds into a model of the human leukocyte elastase (HLE) active site produced a molecular model of the inhibitor-enzyme interaction. 相似文献

A series of novel low molecular weight thiocarbamate esters (1e-6e) were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of human leukocyte elastase (HLE). The thiocarbamate esters studied consist of a substituted primary or secondary aliphatic or aromatic amine and a 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole-5-thiol (Table I). The HLE catalyzed hydrolysis of N-methoxysuccinyl- L-Ala-L-Ala-L-Pro-L-Val-p-nitroanilide substrate was utilized as the measure of inhibition. N-n-butyl, 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole-5-thiocarbamate (1e) exhibited the highest inhibitory activity (k(obs) /[I] = 2.1 x 10(5) M(-1). min(-1) ) and N-allyl, 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole-5-thiocarbamate (2e) (K(obs) /[I] = 6.1 x 10(4) M(-1). min(-1) ) exhibited the second highest inhibitory activity of all the thiocarbamates. The aromatic N-phenyl, 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole-5-thiocarbamate (4e) showed the lowest inhibitory activity (K(obs) /[I] = 1.9 x 10(2) M(-1). min(-1) ) among the N-monosubstituted derivatives, similar to that of N-ethyl-N-n-butyl, 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole-5-thiocarbamate (5e) (K(obs) /[I] = 1.8 x 10(2) M(-1).min(-1) ). The N-isopropyl, 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole-5-thiocarbamate (3e) (K(obs) /[I] = 3.3 x 10(3) M(-1).min(-1) ) was about 10 fold more active than (4e) and N, N-diisopropyl, 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole- 5-thiocarbamate (6e) showed no inhibitory activity against HLE. In the present work less than 3% of HLE specific activity was regained after 24 hours incubation with each of the tested N-monosubstituted thiocarbamates (1e-4e). The time-dependent inhibition of HLE by the thiocarbamate compounds (1e-5e) seems to involve the interaction and possible chemical modification of one enzyme residue. Straight chain nonpolar aliphatic substituents on the nitrogen of the thiocarbamate functionality may be essential for high inhibitory activity. As the degree of substitution (branching) on the nitrogen of the thiocarbamate functionality increases the inhibitory activity of the compounds decreases. The time-dependent inhibition of HLE and the slow deacylation rates by the N-monosubstituted thiocarbamates are consistent with irreversible inhibition. 相似文献

The 1,2,5-thiadiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide scaffold (I) embodies a motif that allows it to dock to the active site of (chymo)trypsin-like proteases in a predictable and substrate-like fashion. Consequently, inhibitors derived from this heterocyclic scaffold interact with both the S and S' subsites of an enzyme. Exploitation of binding interactions with both the S and S' subsites of a target enzyme may lead to compounds with greatly enhanced enzyme selectivity and inhibitory potency. This preliminary report describes the use of a series of compounds having the heterocyclic scaffold linked to various amino acids to probe the S' subsites of human leukocyte elastase (HLE), proteinase 3 (PR 3), and cathepsin G (Cat G). For comparative purposes, a series of compounds derived from a related scaffold, isothiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide (II), was also generated. Several of the compounds were found to be highly potent and selective time-dependent inhibitors of HLE, PR 3, and Cat G. 相似文献

trans-4-Ethoxycarbonyl-3-ethyl-1-(4-nitrophenyl-sulfonyl)-azetidin -3-one described by Firestone et al. (1990, Tetrahedron 46, 2255) as an inhibitor of human leucocyte elastase (HLE) displayed potent, time-dependent inhibition of both HLE and human cathepsin G (Cat-G). The cis-isomer was 7- and 180-fold less active, respectively. The mechanism likely involves opening of the beta-lactam ring by the active site serine to form an acyl-enzyme intermediate(s). This intermediate partitions with ratios of 4:1 between turnover of the inhibitor and formation of relatively stable enzyme-inhibitor complexes from both enzymes. The final HLE-inhibitor complex reactivated with a half-life of 48 h at 25 degrees C and was 16-fold more stable than the Cat-G-inhibitor complex. The stability of the acyl-enzymes supports a "double hit" chemical mechanism involving both serine acylation and alkylation of the histidine. These observations suggest that beta-lactams may be developed as a class of serine protease inhibitors. 相似文献

A series of substituted 2,4,5-triphenylisothiazol-3(2H)-one 1,1-dioxides 9 was synthesized and investigated as inhibitors of human leukocyte elastase (HLE). All compounds were found to inhibit HLE in a time-dependent manner and most of them exhibited kobs/[I] values > 300M(-1)s(-1). The most potent 3-oxosultam of this series was 91 (kobs/[I] = 2440 M(-1)s(-1)). Kinetic investigations performed with 9g and different substrate concentrations did not allow to clearly distinguish between a competitive or noncompetitive mode of inhibition. A more complex interaction is supported by the failure of a linear dependency of kobs values on the inhibitor concentration. 相似文献

A series of carboxylate derivatives based on the 1,2,5-thiadiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide and isothiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide scaffolds has been synthesized and the inhibitory profile of these compounds toward human leukocyte elastase (HLE), cathepsin G (Cat G) and proteinase 3 (PR 3) was then determined. Most of the compounds were found to be potent, time-dependent inhibitors of elastase, with some of the compounds exhibiting k(inact)/K1 values as high as 4,928,300 M(-1) s(-1). The inhibitory potency of carboxylate derivatives based on the 1,2,5-thiadiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide platform was found to be influenced by both the pKa and the inherent structure of the leaving group. Proper selection of the primary specificity group (R(I)) was found to lead to selective inhibition of HLE over Cat G, however, those compounds that inhibited HLE also inhibited PR 3, albeit less efficiently. The predictable mode of binding of these compounds suggests that, among closely-related serine proteases, highly selective inhibitors of a particular serine protease can be fashioned by exploiting subtle differences in their S' subsites. This study has also demonstrated that the degradative action of elastase on elastin can be abrogated in the presence of inhibitor 17. 相似文献

Inhibition of human leukocyte elastase(HLE) by a series of 6-acylamino-2-[(ethylsulfonyl)oxy)]-1H-isoindole-1,3-diones was determined and compared to their inhibition of ChT, PPE, and Cat G. The best inhibitor of the series was 6-((1'S)-camphanyl)amino-2-[(ethylsulfonyl) oxy]-1H-isoindole-1,3-dione 5b, with a k(obs)/[I] = 11,000 M(-1) s(-1). This study revealed that HLE shows a preference for the S stereochemistry and tolerates hydrophobic substituents in the Sn' binding sites. Molecular modeling of non-covalent HLE-inhibitor complexes was used as a tool to investigate our binding model. Buffer stability assays reveal that these compounds are susceptible to hydrolysis at physiological pH. 相似文献

The existence of subtle differences in the Sn' subsites of closely-related (chymo)trypsin-like serine proteases, and the fact that the 1,2,5-thiadiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide scaffold docks to the active site of (chymo)trypsin-like enzymes in a substrate-like fashion, suggested that the introduction of recognition elements that can potentially interact with the Sn' subsites of these proteases might provide an effective means for optimizing enzyme potency and selectivity. Accordingly, a series of heterocyclic sulfide derivatives based on the 1,2,5-thiadiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide scaffold (I) was synthesized and the inhibitory activity and selectivity of these compounds toward human leukocyte elastase (HLE), proteinase 3 (PR 3) and cathepsin G (Cat G) were then determined. Compounds with P1 = isobutyl were found to be potent, time-dependent inhibitors of HLE and, to a lesser extent PR 3, while those with P1 = benzyl inactivated Cat G rapidly and irreversibly. This study has demonstrated that 1,2,5-thiadiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide-based heterocyclic sulfides are effective inhibitors of (chymo)trypsin-like serine proteases. 相似文献

Human leukocyte elastase (HLE), a serine protease involved in inflammation and tissue degradation, can be irreversibly inactivated in a time- and concentration-dependent manner by ynenol lactones. Ynenol lactones that are alpha-unsubstituted do not inactivate but are alternate substrate inhibitors that are hydrolyzed by the enzyme. Ynenol lactones that are both substituted alpha to to the lactone carbonyl and unsubstituted at the acetylene terminus are rapid inactivators of HLE and inactivate pancreatic elastase and trypsin more slowly. 3-Benzyl-5(E)-(prop-2-ynylidene)tetrahydro-2-furanone inactivates HLE with biphasic kinetics and an apparent second-order rate of up to 22,000 M-1 s-1 (pH 7.8, 25 degrees C). The rate of inactivation is pH-dependent and is slowed by a competitive inhibitor. The partition ratio is 1.6 +/- 0.1. Rapid removal of ynenol lactone during the course of inactivation yields a mixture of acyl and inactivated enzyme species, which then shows a partial recovery of activity that is time- and pH-dependent. Inactivation is not reversible with hydroxylamine. The enzyme is not inactivated if the untethered allenone is added exogenously. All of these results are consistent with a mechanism involving enzyme acylation at serine-195 by the ynenol lactone, isomerization of the acyl enzyme to give a tethered allenone, and capture of a nucleophile (probably histidine-57) to inactivate the enzyme. Substitution at the acetylene terminus of ynenol lactones severely reduces their ability to inactivate HLE, because allenone formation is slowed and/or nucleophile capture is hindered. Chemical competence of each of these steps has been demonstrated [Spencer, R.W., Tam, T.F., Thomas, E.M., Robinson, V.J.,& Krantz, A. (1986) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 108, 5589-5597]. 相似文献

Influences of reduction or enhancement of serotonergic function on convulsive responses and thresholds to maximal electroshock stimulation (MES) were studied in rats classified by MES as extensors or nonextensors. In extensors, serotonin reduction decreased the tonic convulsive threshold coincident with an increased incidence of hindlimb extension (HLE). Enhancement of serotonergic function with fluoxetine, pCA, 5-HTP, fenfluramine or 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeODMT) prevented HLE. This action was antagonized by pCA, strychnine or digitoxigenin and was not related to overt behavioral disruption or an elevated tonic threshold. In nonextensors, serotonin reduction restored HLE. HLE initiated by spinal cord stimulation was not remarkably effected by any treatment. Catecholamine reduction had no effect on any part of the tonic response in either group of rats. The results suggest the activation of central serotonergic inhibitory influences during the MES tonic convulsion. The possibility of graded-intensity serotonergic attenuation of seizure spread is discussed suggesting the action of serotonergic-enhancing drugs to prevent HLE may include a mechanism similar to a naturally-occurring “mechanism” to prevent HLE in nonextensor rats. 相似文献

The design, synthesis, and in vitro biochemical evaluation of a class of mechanism-based inhibitors of human leukocyte elastase (HLE) that incorporate in their structure a 1,2,5-thiadiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide scaffold with appropriate recognition and reactivity elements appended to it is described. The synthesized compounds were found to be efficient, time-dependent inhibitors of HLE. The interaction of the inhibitors with HLE is postulated to lead to the formation of a highly reactive N-sulfonyl imine (a Michael acceptor) that arises from an enzyme-induced sulfonamide fragmentation cascade. Subsequent reaction ultimately leads to the formation of a relatively stable acyl enzyme. The results cited herein demonstrate convincingly the superiority of the 1,2,5-thiadiazolidin-3-one 1,1 dioxide scaffold over other scaffolds (e.g., saccharin) in the design of inhibitors of (chymo)trypsin-like serine proteases. 相似文献

The anaerobic metabolism of phthalate and other aromatic compounds by the denitrifying bacterium Pseudomonas sp. strain P136 was studied. Benzoate, cyclohex-1-ene-carboxylate, 2-hydroxycyclohexanecarboxylate, and pimelate were detected as predominant metabolic intermediates during the metabolism of three isomers of phthalate, m-hydroxybenzoate, p-hydroxybenzoate, and cyclohex-3-ene-carboxylate. Inducible acyl-coenzyme A synthetase activities for phthalates, benzoate, cyclohex-1-ene-carboxylate, and cyclohex-3-ene-carboxylate were detected in the cells grown on aromatic compounds. Simultaneous adaptation to these aromatic compounds also occurred. A similar phenomenon was observed in the aerobic metabolism of aromatic compounds by this strain. A new pathway for the anaerobic metabolism of phthalate and a series of other aromatic compounds by this strain was proposed. Some properties of the regulation of this pathway were also discussed. 相似文献

Activated polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) release various types of proteases and express them on the cell surface. The proteases play important roles in PMN-mediated events. In the present study, flow cytometric analysis revealed that CD14 expression on human gingival fibroblasts (HGF) was markedly reduced by PMA-activated PMNs in a coculture system. We found that this reduction was caused by both secreted and cell surface proteases produced by activated PMNs. A protease responsible for the reduction was found to be human leukocyte elastase (HLE) secreted from the activated PMNs by use of various protease inhibitors, although HLE was only partially involved in CD14 reduction caused by cell-bound molecule(s) on fixed PMNs. Analysis with purified HLE revealed a time- and dose-dependent reduction of CD14 on HGF, and complete reduction was observed by 20 microg/ml HLE treatment for 30-60 min, but the other molecules such as CD26, CD59, CD157, and MHC class I on HGF were only slightly reduced. This reduction of CD14 resulted from direct proteolysis by HLE on the cell surface, because HLE reduced CD14 on fixed HGF and also on purified cell membranes. As a result of CD14 proteolysis, IL-8 production by HGF was suppressed when triggered by 10 ng/ml LPS, but not by IL-1alpha, indicating that HLE inhibited a CD14-dependent cell activation. These findings suggested that activated PMNs have a potential negative feedback mechanism for HGF function at the inflammatory site, particularly in periodontal tissues. 相似文献

A study of various 2-[(alkylsulfonyl)oxy]-6-substituted-1H-isoindole-1,3-diones' inhibition of chymotrypsin compared to inhibition of HLE reveals that acylamino substitution in the 6-position increases selectivity and potency of these inhibitors for HLE. The best HLE inhibitor in this series was 6-(methylglutaryl)amino-2-[(ethylsulfonyl)oxy]-1H-isoindole-1,3-di one with a kobs/[I] = 220,000 M(-1) s(-1). 相似文献

Samples from a long-term bioremediation experiment contaminated with two crude oils, Arabian Heavy and Gullfax, was used to analyze the compositional change of petroleum hydrocarbons. A time course of five different homologous series of petroleum hydrocarbons were analysed by GC/FID and GC/MS. The homologous series were n-alkanes, acyclic isoprenoids, alkylated naphthalenes, alkylated phenanthrenes, and alkylated dibenzothiophenes. Several biomarker compounds were monitored during the experiment to evaluate the possible use as conserved reference compounds for the quantification of other oil compounds, that is, nor-hopanes, hopanes, methyl-hopanes, steranes, mono- og triaromatic steranes. The 17α(H),21β(H)-hopane was found to be stable toward biodegradation and was used as reference compound. The internal standard quantification method was used to quantify changes of the homologous series of oil compounds, and a graphic presentation was used to compare the decrease of the individual compounds. This was found to be an easy way of comparing relative changes in oil. The disappearance of the compounds was extensive and in 6 to 7 months less than 6% remained. The decrease of the n-alkanes (>C15) and acyclic isoprenoids was almost uniform within each homologous series and thus independent of physical-chemical characteristics. Evaporation affected compounds with boiling points lower than n-C15. The alkylated aromatic and sulfur-aromatic compounds decreased according to the degree of alkylation and the decrease showed to be delayed by 10 to 20% by each additional alkyl group. The lack of isomeric-specific degradation of most of the aromatic and sulfur-aromatic compounds, until extensive decrease in concentration had occurred, suggests these compounds have to be dissolved, before any biodegradation occurs. 相似文献

The review deals with transformation of natural and synthetic aromatic compounds by fungi (causative agents of white rot, brown rot, or soft rot, as well as soil filamentous fungi). Major enzyme types involved in the transformation of lignin and aromatic xenobiotics are discussed, with emphasis on activity regulation under the conditions of secondary metabolism and oxidative stress. Coupling of systems degrading polysaccharides/lignin and non-phenolic lignin structures (without the involvement of lignin peroxidase) is analyzed, together with non-enzymatic mechanisms (involving lipoperoxide free radicals, cation-radicals, quinoid mediators, or transition metal ions). Metabolic pathways resulting in the formation of aromatic and haloaromatic compounds in fungi are described. Consideration is given to the mechanisms of fungal adaptation to aromatic xenobiotics. 相似文献

A new series of phosphorus-containing 11beta-aryl-substituted steroids have been synthesized in an eight-step sequence involving a palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction to introduce a phosphorus group onto the aromatic ring. The compounds were evaluated for progesterone receptor (PR) antagonist activity in a T47D cell-based assay and for glucocorticoid receptor (GR) antagonist activity in an A549 cell-based assay. The structure-activity relationships of these compounds are discussed. Selected compounds were tested in vivo in a rat complement C3 assay. 相似文献
