Changes in Activities of Glucose Metabolising Enzymes in Germ Cells during Spermatogenesis in Rats

The rate of ¹⁴CO₂, liberation from [¹⁴C-1]glucose was identical to that from [¹⁴C-6]glucose in spermatids, but more than the latter in spermatogonia. Rotenone (1 μM) completely inhibited ¹⁴CO₂ release from [¹⁴C-1]glucose in spermatids, but decreased it only 30% in spermatogonia. The activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, but not 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, was markedly lower in spermatocytes and spermatids than in spermatogonia. The activities of the glycolytic enzymes, glucosephosphate isomerase, fructose diphosphatase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and enolase, differed only slightly in spermatids and spermatogonia. It is concluded that the low glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity may contribute to the low activity of the pentose cycle in spermatocytes and spermatids.     

Regioselective acylation of several polyhydroxylated natural compounds by Candida antarctica lipase B

Regioselective acylation of four polyhydroxylated natural compounds, deacetyl asperulosidic acid (1), asperulosidic acid (2), puerarin (3) and resveratrol (4) by Candida antarctica Lipase B in the presence of various acyl donors (vinyl acetate, vinyl decanoate or vinyl cinnamoate) was studied. Compounds 1, 2 and 4 were regioselectively acetylated with vinyl acetate to afford products, 3'-O-acetyl-10-O-deacetylasperulosidic acid (1a), 3',6'-O-diacetyl-10-O-deacetylasperulosidic acid (1b), 3'-O-acetylasperulosidic acid (2a), 3',6'-O-diacetylasperulosidic acid (2b), 4'-O-acetylresveratrol (4a), respectively, with yields of 22 to 50%, while reactions with vinyl decanoate and vinyl cinnamoate were slow with lower yields. Compound 3 was readily acylated with all three acyl donors and quantitatively converted to products 6'-O-acetylpuerarin (3a), 6'-O-decanoylpuerarin (3b), 6'-O-cinnamoylpuerarin (3c), respectively. The structures of these acylated products were determined by spectroscopic methods (MS and NMR).
