The influence of seven structurally similar N,N-dimethyl-(4-hydroxyaryl)alkylammonium chlorides on the survival of strains of E. coli cells has been studied. AB1157 and isogenic BH910 defective in the genes of repair enzymes have been analyzed in the presence
and in the absence of hydrogen peroxide. Among the studied compounds, only N,N-dimethyl-(3,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxybenzyl)ammonium chloride (C1) did not show cytotoxic properties and increased the survival
of the cells of both strains in the presence of H2O2 to a larger extent than trolox (water-soluble analogue of α-tocopherol). Analogues of C1, derivatives of 3-methyl-5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl- and 3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propylamines, efficiently protected only mutant BH910 cells against H2O2. In a series of structural analogues of C1, the cytotoxicity increased with the replacement of the methyl groups in the aromatic
ring by tert-butyl and cyclohexyl groups. Among the seven new compounds, only the C1 derivative is a prospective antioxidant for a subsequent
more detailed analysis. 相似文献

In our research, 14 benzyl benzoates with hydroxyl(s) (3-16) were synthesized and their inhibitory activity on mushroom tyrosinase was tested. Results indicated that among these compounds, 4-hydroxybenzyl 3,5-dihydroxybenzoate (3), 4-hydroxybenzyl 2,4-dihydroxybenzoate (5), 4-hydroxybenzyl 2,4,6-dihydroxybenzoate (7), 3-hydroxybenzyl 3,5-dihydroxybenzoate (8), 3-hydroxybenzyl 2,4-dihydroxybenzoate (10) exhibited inhibitory activity with their IC(50) less than 10μM. Further studies showed these five compounds were competitive inhibitors of tyrosinase and their structure-activity relationships were investigated in this article. 相似文献

The thermostable truncated hemoglobin from the actinomyces Thermobifida fusca (Tf-trHb) displays a robust peroxidase activity, with optimum at acidic pH values, in experiments with the redox mediator ABTS. However, typical peroxidase substrates, such as phenolic or aromatic amine compounds, appear to be poor substrates for Tf-trHb. In turn, the protein is able to catalyze a unique dehydrogenation reaction of dibenzylbutanolides, suggested intermediates in the biosynthesis of podophyllotoxin, in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. Dibenzylbutanolides with a free 4″-hydroxyl group were thus converted into the corresponding 2,7″-dehydroderivatives thus setting up the basis for an efficient biotransformation of this important precursor. In particular, Tf-trHb mediated oxidation of trans-2-(4″-hydroxy-3″,5″-dimethoxybenzyl)-3-(3′,4′-methylenedioxy-7′β-hydroxybenzyl)butanolide 1 into the corresponding benzylidene-benzoyl-γ-butyrolactone 2 was obtained at high yield and with excellent selectivity. 相似文献

The persistence of leukemia stem cells (LSCs) is one of the leading causes of chemoresistance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To explore the factors important in LSC-mediated resistance, we use mass spectrometry to screen the factors related to LSC chemoresistance and defined IFN-γ-inducible lysosomal thiol reductase (GILT) as a candidate. We found that the GILT expression was upregulated in chemoresistant CD34+ AML cells. Loss of function studies demonstrated that silencing of GILT in AML cells sensitized them to Ara-C treatment both in vitro and in vivo. Further mechanistic findings revealed that the ROS-mediated mitochondrial damage plays a pivotal role in inducing apoptosis of GILT-inhibited AML cells after Ara-C treatment. The inactivation of PI3K/Akt/ nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) pathway, causing reduced generation of antioxidants such as SOD2 and leading to a shifted ratio of GSH/GSSG to the oxidized form, contributed to the over-physiological oxidative status in the absence of GILT. The prognostic value of GILT was also validated in AML patients. Taken together, our work demonstrated that the inhibition of GILT increases AML chemo-sensitivity through elevating ROS level and induce oxidative mitochondrial damage-mediated apoptosis, and inhibition of the PI3K/Akt/NRF2 pathway enhances the intracellular oxidative state by disrupting redox homeostasis, providing a potentially effective way to overcome chemoresistance of AML. 相似文献

The effects of phenolic acids of microbial origin on mitochondrial functions and the possibility of removing their effects by thiol antioxidants dithiotreitol and N-acetylcysteine were studied. The action of some phenolic acids on the redox state of NADH, the membrane potential and calcium capacity of mitochondria is due to their interaction with thiol groups. Partial restoration of mitochondrial functions occurred in the presence of dithiotreitol and N-acetylcysteine, full recovery (short-term duration) was promoted by the combined action of dithiotreitol and menadione (vitamin K3). It was found that the protective effect of thiol antioxidants became prooxidant if the medium contained free iron and compounds with quinone structure, capable of entering into a redox cycle with thiols. It is shown that the interaction of thiols with iron and menadione is accompanied by absorption of oxygen to form superoxide anion. Prooxidant effect of thiol antioxidants may explain the absence of the protective effect at the later stages of sepsis and systemic inflammatory syndrome. 相似文献

Background
Progression of age-related macular degeneration has been linked to iron dysregulation and oxidative stress that induce apoptosis of neural retinal cells. Since both antioxidants and chelating agents have been reported to reduce the progression of retinal lesions associated with AMD in experimental animals, the present study evaluates the ability of multi-functional antioxidants containing functional groups that can independently chelate redox metals and quench free radicals to protect the retina against light-induced retinal degeneration, a rat model of dry atrophic AMD.Methods/Results
Proof of concept studies were conducted to evaluate the ability of 4-(5-hydroxypyrimidin-2-yl)-N,N-dimethyl-3,5-dioxopiperazine-1-sulfonamide (compound 4) and 4-(5-hydroxy-4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)-N,N-dimethyl-3,5-dioxopiperazine-1-sulfonamide (compound 8) to reduce retinal damage in 2-week dark adapted Wistar rats exposed to 1000 lx of light for 3 hours. Assessment of the oxidative stress markers 4- hydroxynonenal and nitrotyrosine modified proteins and Thioredoxin by ELISA and Western blots indicated that these compounds reduced the oxidative insult caused by light exposure. The beneficial antioxidant effects of these compounds in providing significant functional and structural protection were confirmed by electroretinography and quantitative histology of the retina.Conclusions/Significance
The present study suggests that multi-functional compounds may be effective candidates for preventive therapy of AMD. 相似文献9.
A group of 26 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-disubstituted and 2,6-dimethyl-3,4, 5-trisubstituted-1,4-dihydropyridines (1,4-H(2)Py=1,4-DHPs) and five related pyridines were studied as inhibitors of rat liver mitochondrial swelling and O(2) uptake by ascorbic acid-dependent lipid peroxidation (LP) and as modulators of mitochondrial swelling induced by Na(+)-linoleate or Na(+)-pyrophosphate. 1,4-DHPs studied include 4-unsubstituted and 4-methyl- and 4-phenyl-substituted 3, 5-dialkoxycarbonylderivatives of 2,6-dimethyl-1,4-DHP with variations in alkoxy chain length and composition, 4-unsubstituted and 4-methyl-, 4-aryl- and 4-pyridyl-substituted 3, 5-dianilidocarbonylderivatives, and a structurally related group of 3,5-dipyridylamidocarbonylderivatives. Many 1,4-DHPs possess marked antioxidant (AO) and membrane stabilizing activity, expressed as the mitochondrial swelling (deltaA(520)/t) and/or O(2) uptake rate decrease (V(0)/V) as well as prolongation of the induction period (tau/tau(0)) of mitochondrial swelling and/or O(2) uptake at ascorbic acid-dependent LP of rat liver mitochondria. 4-Unsubstituted 3,5-dialkoxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-DHPs, as well as 4-unsubstituted or those possessing lipophylic 4-aryl- groups 3, 5-diamido-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-DHPs, reveal marked AO and membrane stabilizing properties. Oxidized (heteroaromatized) derivatives have minimal activity. Perhaps 1,4-DHPs preferably act as antioxidants on stages of initiation and prolongation of LP chain reactions at low concentrations: IC(50) (when V(0)/V or tau/tau(0)=2) are 0.1 microM to 100 microM. At 100 microM 3,5-di-p-hydroxyphenoxycarbonyl- and 3, 5-di-p-tolyloxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-DHPs, as well as 3, 5-diethoxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethylpyridine (oxidized form of Hantzsch ester) and 3,5-diamyloxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethylpyridine, alter the mitochondrial swelling rate in the presence of natural protonophore Na(+)-linoleate (0.063 mM and 0.125 mM). 3,5-Di-n-butyloxycarbonyl-2, 6-dimethyl-1,4-DHP at 100 microM completely stops mitochondrial swelling in the presence of 0.8 mM Na(+)-pyrophosphate. In the presence of many of the 1,4-DHPs, the lipid peroxidation process was inhibited. However, the swelling process could be prolonged, promoted, accelerated or inhibited-depending on 1,4-DHPs structure, concentration, the type of initiators of the swelling process and the medium composition. 相似文献

β-Elemene is an active component of the herb medicine Curcuma Wenyujin with reported antitumor activity. To improve its antitumor ability, five novel piperazine derivatives of β-elemene, 13-(3-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-β-elemene (DX1), 13-(cis-3,5-dimethyl-1-piperazinyl)-β-elemene (DX2), 13-(4-ethyl-1-piperazinyl)-β-elemene (DX3), 13-(4-isopropyl-1-piperazinyl)-β-elemene (DX4) and 13-piperazinyl-β-elemene (DX5), were synthesized. The antiproliferative and apoptotic effects of these derivatives were determined in human leukemia HL-60, NB4, K562 and HP100-1 cells. DX1, DX2 and DX5, which contain a secondary amino moiety, were more active in inhibiting cell growth and in inducing apoptosis than DX3 and DX4. The apoptosis induction ability of DX1 was associated with the generation of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), a decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and the activation of caspase-8. Pretreatment with the antioxidants N-acetylcysteine and catalase completely blocked DX1-induced H(2)O(2) production, but only partially its activation of caspase-8 and induction of apoptosis. HL-60 cells were more sensitive than its H(2)O(2)-resistant subclone HP100-1 cells to DX1-induced apoptosis. The activation of caspase-8 by these compounds was correlated with the decrease in the levels of cellular FLICE-inhibitory protein (c-FLIP). The proteasome inhibitor MG-132 augmented the decrease in c-FLIP levels and apoptosis induced by these derivatives. FADD- and caspase-8-deficient Jurkat subclones have a decreased response to DX1-induced apoptosis. Our data indicate that these novel β-elemene piperazine derivatives induce apoptosis through the decrease in c-FLIP levels and the production of H(2)O(2) which leads to activation of both death receptor- and mitochondrial-mediated apoptotic pathways. 相似文献

A major burden in the treatment of ovarian cancer is the high percentage of recurrence and chemoresistance. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) provide a reservoir of cells that can self-renew, can maintain the tumor by generating differentiated cells [non-stem cells (non-CSCs)] which make up the bulk of the tumor and may be the primary source of recurrence. We describe the characterization of human ovarian cancer stem cells (OCSCs). These cells have a distinctive genetic profile that confers them with the capacity to recapitulate the original tumor, proliferate with chemotherapy, and promote recurrence. CSC identified in EOC cells isolated form ascites and solid tumors are characterized by: CD44+, MyD88+, constitutive NFκB activity and cytokine and chemokine production, high capacity for repair, chemoresistance to conventional chemotherapies, resistance to TNFα-mediated apoptosis, capacity to form spheroids in suspension, and the ability to recapitulate in vivo the original tumor.Chemotherapy eliminates the bulk of the tumor but it leaves a core of cancer cells with high capacity for repair and renewal. The molecular properties identified in these cells may explain some of the unique characteristics of CSCs that control self-renewal and drive metastasis. The identification and cloning of human OCSCs can aid in the development of better therapeutic approaches for ovarian cancer patients. 相似文献

Curcumin (1,7-bis(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione, 1) is a yellow ingredient isolated from turmeric (Curcumin longa). It has been shown to exhibit a variety of biological activities including antioxidative activity. In order to find more active antioxidants with 1 as the lead compound we synthesized curcumin analogues, i.e., 1,7-bis(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione (2), 1-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-7-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione (3), 1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-7-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione (4), 1,7-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione (5), 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-7-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione (6), 1,7-bis(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1,6- heptadiene-3,5-dione (7), 1,7-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione (8), and 1,7-diphenyl-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione (9). Antioxidative effects of curcumin and its analogues against free radical initiated peroxidation of human low density lipoprotein (LDL) were studied. The peroxidation was initiated either by a water-soluble initiator 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane hydrochloride) (AAPH), or by cupric ion (Cu2+). The reaction kinetics were monitored either by the uptake of oxygen and the depletion of alpha-tocopherol present in the native LDL, or by the formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances. Kinetic analysis of the antioxidation process demonstrates that these compounds, except 7, 8, and 9, are effective antioxidants against AAPH- and Cu2+ -initiated LDL peroxidation by H-atom abstraction from the phenolic groups. Compounds 2 and 3 which bear ortho-diphenoxyl functionality possess significantly higher antioxidant activity than curcumin and other analogues, and the 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl group also play an important role in the antioxidative activity. 相似文献

Laccases are copper-containing oxidases that are involved in sclerotization of the cuticle of mosquitoes and other insects. Oxidation of exogenous compounds by insect laccases may have the potential to produce reactive species toxic to insects. We investigated two classes of substituted phenolic compounds, halogenated di- and trihydroxybenzenes and substituted di-tert-butylphenols, on redox potential, oxidation by laccase and effects on mosquito larval growth. An inverse correlation between the oxidation potentials and laccase activity of halogenated hydroxybenzenes was found. Substituted di-tert-butylphenols however were found to impact mosquito larval growth and survival. In particular, 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)phenol (15) caused greater than 98% mortality of Anophelesgambiae larvae in a concentration of 180nM, whereas 2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-methylpropanal oxime (13) and 6,8-di-tert-butyl-2,2-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-chromene (33) caused 93% and 92% mortalities in concentrations of 3.4 and 3.7μM, respectively. Larvae treated with di-tert-butylphenolic compounds died just before pupation. 相似文献

The cultured cells of Catharanthus roseus were able to convert 2-, 3-, and 4-hydroxybenzyl alcohols into their corresponding hydroxybenzyl-β-
-glucopyranosides or β-
-glucopyranosylbenzyl alcohols, and then convert 2- and 3-hydroxybenzyl-β-
-glucopyranosides into primeverosides and vicianosides. Further, the C. roseus cells were capable of hydroxylation of 2-hydroxybenzoic acid to afford 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid and then glucosylation of the newly introduced phenolic hydroxyl group. 相似文献

Mounting evidence showed that microRNAs involve in development and chemoresistance of various human cancers. We explored the roles and mechanisms of miR-144 in resistance to cisplatin (CDDP) of cervical cancer cells. miR-144 and LIM homeobox 2 (LHX2) expression in CDDP-resistant and the parental cells was determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot analysis, respectively. The functions of miR-144 overexpression on cell viability, the incidence of apoptosis, the activity of caspase-3/7, the cleaved-caspase-3 expression, cell migration, and invasion were determined in Hela cells and Hela/CDDP cells. Overexpression of miR-144 reduced cell viability, induced cell apoptosis, and inhibited cell migration and invasion after CDDP treatment. Besides, a luciferase reporter system demonstrated that miR-144 could directly bind to the 3′ untranslated region (3′-UTR) of LHX2 messenger RNA (mRNA). Gain expression of miR-144 decreased the expression of LHX2 both in mRNA and protein levels. Furthermore, restoration of LHX2 partly abolished the biological functions of miR-144 in resistance of cervical cancer cells. Taken together, miR-144 overcomes resistance to CDDP via promoting cell apoptosis and inhibiting invasion through targeting LHX2 in cervical cancer cells. 相似文献

The effect of commonly used food antioxidants on recombinant tumor necrosis factor alpha (rTNF-alpha)-induced cytotoxicity, growth enhancement and adhesion has been evaluated. Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and 4-hydroxymethyl-2,6-di-t-butylphenol (HBP) were the only two of nine antioxidants that completely inhibited rTNF-alpha-induced cytotoxicity in L929 and WEHI 164 fibrosarcoma cells. Ethoxyquin, propyl gallate and butylated hydroquinone only partially inhibited rTNF-alpha-induced cytotoxicity, while the antioxidants butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), alpha-tocopherol, ascorbic acid and thiodipropionic acid had minimal effects. The only difference between the molecular structure of the efficient HBP and the non-efficient BHT, is a hydroxymethyl group instead of a hydroxyl group on the phenolic ring. Neither BHA nor BHT inhibited the activation of NF kappa B after 10 or 60 min challenge with rTNF-alpha in L929 cells. BHA also inhibited rTNF-alpha-induced, but not rIL-1 beta-induced growth enhancement in FS-4 fibroblasts. Further, BHA blocked both rTNF-alpha-induced and rIL-1 beta-induced prostaglandin E2 synthesis in FS-4 fibroblasts. BHA inhibited the rTNF-alpha-induced release of arachidonic acid in both FS-4 and L929 cells, suggesting that BHA inhibits cellular phospholipase(s). Neither alpha-tocopherol nor BHA inhibited rTNF-alpha-induced adhesiveness of human endothelial cells. The results indicate that BHA is a specific and potent inhibitor of rTNF-alpha- and rTNF-beta-induced cytotoxicity, as well as of rTNF-alpha-induced growth enhancement. 相似文献

Retinoic acid confers resistance to p53-dependent apoptosis in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells by modulating nuclear import of p53. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Many cell lines derived from neuroblastoma (NB) carry the wild-type p53 gene with a p53-dependent apoptotic pathway that is responsive to DNA damaging agents. A recent study has demonstrated that retinoic acid (RA) pretreatment of NB cells promotes chemoresistance to apoptosis induced by chemotherapeutic agents. We examine here the possible contribution of the p53 pathway to the chemoresistance response associated with the RA treatment in NB cells. Upon treatment with RA (1-10 microM) for 4 days, the human NB cells, SH-SY5Y, developed resistance selectively to p53-dependent apoptotic stimuli including gamma-irradiation, etoposide, and 1-(5-isoquinolinyl sulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7). Interestingly, RA affected the ability of H-7 to induce nuclear accumulation of the p53 protein without altering its effect on elevating the steady-state level of p53, suggesting that drug-induced up-regulation and nuclear accumulation of the wild-type p53 protein are separable processes. The modulation of nuclear import of p53 protein by RA may thus represent a potential mechanism by which certain tumor cells with the wild-type p53 gene develop resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. 相似文献
