The antiplasmodial activities of sixty norcantharidin analogs were tested in vitro against a chloroquine sensitive (D6, Sierra Leone) and chloroquine resistant (W2) strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Forty analogs returned IC(50) values <500 μM against at least one of the P. falciparum strains examined. The ring open compound 24 ((1S,4R)-3-(allylcarbamoyl)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid) is the most active aliphatic analog (D6 IC(50)=3.0±0.0 and W2 IC(50)=3.0±0.8 μM) with a 20-fold enhancement relative to norcantharidin. Surprisingly, seven norcantharimides also displayed good antiplasmodial activity with the most potent, 5 returning D6=8.9±0.9 and W2 IC(50)=12.5±2.2 μM, representing a fivefold enhancement over norcantharidin.  相似文献

Radical C-glycosidation of a 3-methylidene-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one derivative with acetobromomannose gave a alpha-C-mannopyranoside that was converted into alpha-D-ManpCH2(1-->3)-D-GalNAc, a C-disaccharide that inhibits beta-galactosidase from jack bean with IC50 = 9.4 microM and Ki = 7.5 microM (mixed mode of inhibition).  相似文献

With the major problems with resistance in parasitic nematodes of livestock to anthelmintic drugs, there is an urgent need to develop new nematocides. In the present study, we employed a targeted approach for the design of a series of norcantharidin analogues (n = 54) for activity testing against the barber’s pole worm (Haemonchus contortus) of small ruminants in a larval development assay (LDA) and also for toxicity testing on nine distinct human cell lines. Although none of the 54 analogues synthesized were toxic to any of these cell lines, three of them (N-octyl-7-oxabicyclo(2.2.1)heptane-2,3-dicarboximide (B2), N-decyl-7-oxabicyclo(2.2.1)heptane-2,3-dicarboximide (B3) and 4-[(4-methyl)-3-ethyl-2-methyl-5-phenylfuran-10-oxa-4-azatricyclo[5.2.1]decane-3,5-dione (B21) reproducibly displayed 99-100% lethality to H. contortus in LDA, with LD50s of 25-40 μM. The high ‘hit rate’ (5.6%) indicates that the approach taken here has advantages over conventional drug screening methods. A major advantage of norcantharidin analogues over some other currently available anthelmintics is that they can be produced in one to two steps in large amounts at low cost and high purity, and do not require any additional steps for the isolation of the active isomer. This positions them well for commercial development.  相似文献

Condensation of methyl 16-aminomethyllambertianate with N-Boc-omega-amino acids leads smoothly to 16-(N-Boc-aminononan)- and 16-(N-Boc-aminoundecan)amidomethyllabdanoids. The amide of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-1,2-dicarbocylic acid with a labdanoid substituent was obtained under the reaction of methyl aminomethyllambertianate with bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,3-dicarboxylic anhydride. Intereaction of methyl 16-aminomethyllambertianate with chloroacetyl chloride leads to methyl 16-(chloroacetylaminomethyl)lambertianate; condensation of this compound with amino acid methyl ethers the corresponding amides of methyl lambertianate was obtained. The resulting compounds are more (compared with lambertianic acid) cytotoxicity in the cell lines CEM-13, MT-4 and U-937 with an CCID50 concentration of 3.9-9.9 microM.  相似文献

Summary A key chiral intermediate lactol(3)[3aS (3a,4,7,7a)]-hexahydro-4,7-epoxy-isobenzofuran-1 (3H)-one was prepared for the total synthesis of a new thromboxane antagonist. The stereoselective hydrolysis of (exo,exo)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,3-dimethanol, diacetate ester (1) to the corresponding chiral monoacetate ester (2) was carried out with lipases, among which Amano P-30 lipase from Pseudomonas sp. was most effective since it gave the desired enantiomer of monoacetate ester. A yield of 75 mol% and optical purity of >99% was obtained when the reaction was conducted in a biphasic system with 10% toluene at 5 g/l of the substrate. Lipase P-30 was immobilized on Accurel polypropylene (PP) and the immobilized enzyme was reused (five cycles) without loss of enzyme activity, productivity or optical purity. The reaction process was scaled-up to 80 1 (400 g substrate) and monoacetate (2) was isolated in 80 mol% yield with 99.3% optical purity as determined by chiral HPLC and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. A gas chromatography of 99.5% and specific rotation, []D of -7.6° was obtained. The chiral monoacetate ester (2) was oxidized to its corresponding aldehyde and subsequently hydrolyzed to give lactol (3).  相似文献

The H/D exchange catalysis using the Ir(I) complex [TpMe2Ir(η4-2,3-dimethylbutadiene)] (TpMe2=hydridotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate) as the precatalyst was studied for selective deuteration of norbornene derivatives. In dependence of the norbornene substitution in 2,3 positions, selective deuteration of the norbornene double bond could be achieved. (±)-endo,exo-6-Deutero-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,3-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester was isolated in 82% yield.  相似文献

Neutral amino acid transport at the human blood-brain barrier   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
The kinetics of human blood-brain barrier neutral amino acid transport sites are described using isolated human brain capillaries as an in vitro model of the human blood-brain barrier. Kinetic parameters of transport (Km, Vmax, and KD) were determined for eight large neutral amino acids. Km values ranged from 0.30 +/- 0.08 microM for phenylalanine to 8.8 +/- 4.6 microM for valine. The amino acid analogs N-methylaminoisobutyric acid and 2-aminobicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid were used as model substrates of the alanine- and leucine-preferring transport systems, respectively. Phenylalanine is transported solely by the L-system (which is sensitive to 2-aminobicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid), and leucine is transported equally by the L- and ASC-system (which is sodium-dependent and N-methylaminoisobutyric acid-independent). Dose-dependent inhibition of the high affinity transport system by p-chloromercuribenzenesulfonic acid is demonstrated for phenylalanine, similar to the known sensitivity of blood-brain barrier transport in vivo. The Km values for the human brain capillary in vitro correlate significantly (r = 0.83, p less than 0.01) with the Km values for the rat brain capillary in vivo. The results show that the affinity of human blood-brain barrier neutral amino acid transport is very high, i.e. very low Km compared to plasma amino acid concentrations. This provides a physical basis for the selective vulnerability of the human brain to derangements in amino acid availability caused by a selective hyperaminoacidemia, e.g. hyperphenylalaninemia.  相似文献

To more clearly define the physiologic roles of thromboxane (TX)A2 and primary prostaglandins (PG) in vascular tissue we examined vascular contractility, cell signaling, and growth responses. The growth-promoting effects of (15S)-hydroxy-11 alpha,9 alpha-(epoxymethano)prosta-5Z,13E-dienoic acid (U46619; TXA2 agonist), PGF2 alpha, and PGE2 consisted of protein synthesis and proto-oncogene expression, but not DNA synthesis or cell proliferation. U46619 contracted rat aortas and increased cultured rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cell intracellular free calcium concentration [Ca2+]i, [3H]inositol monophosphate (IP) accumulation, myosin light chain phosphorylation, and protein synthesis ([3H]leucine incorporation) with EC50 values ranging from 10 to 50 nM. Each of these responses was inhibitable with the TXA2 receptor antagonist [1S]1 alpha,2 beta(5Z),3 beta,4 alpha-7-(3-[2- [(phenylamino)carbonyl]hydrazino]methyl)-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2- yl-5-heptenoic acid (SQ29548). In contrast, PGF2 alpha increased [Ca2+]i, [3H]IP, and protein synthesis with EC50 values of 30-230 nM but contracted rat aortas with an EC50 of 4800 nM. PGE2 increased [Ca2+]i, [3H]IP accumulation, protein synthesis, and contracted rat aortas with EC50 values of 2.5-3.5 microM. TXA2 receptor blockade prevented PGF2 alpha- and PGE2-induced aortic contraction and cell myosin light chain phosphorylation, but not cell signaling or protein synthesis. Binding studies to vascular smooth muscle TXA2 receptors using 1S-[1 alpha,2 beta(5Z),3 alpha(1E,3S),4 alpha]-7-(3-[3-hydroxy-4-(p- [125I]iodophenoxy)-1-butenyl]7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl)-5-hepte noic acid ([125I]BOP) showed U46619, SQ29548, PGF2 alpha, and PGE2 competition for TXA2 receptor binding at concentrations similar to their EC50 values for aortic contraction, while binding competition with [3H]PGF2 alpha and [3H]PGE2 demonstrated the specificity of [125I]BOP and SQ29548 for TXA2 receptors. The results suggest that 1) PGF2 alpha- and E2-stimulated vessel contraction is due to cross-agonism at vascular TXA2 receptors; 2) PGF2 alpha stimulates TXA2 receptor-independent vascular smooth muscle protein synthesis at nanomolar concentrations, consistent with an interaction at its primary receptor; and 3) TXA2 is a potent stimulus for vascular smooth muscle contraction and protein synthesis. We suggest that the main physiologic effect of PGF2 alpha may be as a stimulus for vascular smooth muscle cell hypertrophy, not as a contractile agonist.  相似文献

The herbicide endothall (7-oxabicyclo 2.2.1 heptane-2, 3-dicarboxylic acid) was applied to cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum L. cv. Acala SJ-1) cotyledon discs. Treatment with 10−4 M endothall for 24 h resulted in injury which was expressed by increased leakage of electrolytes, development of necrotic areas, increased level of polyphenols and tissue browning. We examined whether treatments which decrease chilling injury would also decrease injury caused by the herbicide. Tissue from seedlings grown at 28°C was more sensitive to endothall than that from seedlings grown at 15°C. Pretreatment with 10−5 M abscisic acid greatly decreased the leakage of electrolytes, necrotic areas, and tissue browning caused by endothall. Similar pretreatment did not prevent the increase of polyphenols caused by the herbicide. The treatment with abscisic acid was more effective in protection against the herbicide injury when applied several hours prior to the herbicidal treatment. This time requirement indicates that the mechanism by which abscisic acid induces resistance to the herbicide depends, at least partially, on active metabolism. We suggest that the increased resistance to herbicide stress by abscisic acid is another example of a common resistance mechanism to various stresses in which abscisic acid is involved.  相似文献

A series of compounds combining the beta-lactam and polyphenol scaffold have been prepared and evaluated for inhibition of human leukocyte elastase and matrix metallo-proteases MMP-2 and MMP-9. The design of these compounds has been based on the 'overlapping-type' strategy where two pharmacophores are linked in a single molecule. The most powerful compound against elastase was an N-galloyl-4-alkyliden beta-lactam, [3-[1-(tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-ethyl]-4-oxo-1-(3,4,5-tris-benzyloxy-benzoyl)-azetidin-2-ylidene]-acetic acid ethylester, with an IC50 of 0.5 microM; while the most powerful against MMP-2 was a 4-alkyliden beta-lactam arylated on the C-3 hydroxy side chain (3,5-bis-benzyloxy-4-hydroxy-benzoic acid 1-(2-benzyloxycarbonylmethylene-4-oxo-azetidin-3-yl)-ethyl ester) with an IC50 of 4 microM. Of the total 35 compounds tested, high levels of inhibition of elastase and of MMPs were separately exerted by distinct molecules.  相似文献

Coupling of methyl 16-aminomethyllambertianate with N-Boc-protected ω-amino acids resulted in 16-(N-Boc-aminononan)- and 16-(N-Boc-aminoundecan)amidomethyllabdanoids. Interaction of methyl aminomethyllambertianate with bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2,3-dicarboxylic acid anhydride led to the amide of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-1,2-dicarboxylic acid with a labdanoid substituent. Reaction of methyl 16-aminomethyllambertianate with chloroacetyl chloride resulted in methyl 16-(chloroacetylaminomethyl)lambertianate; coupling of the latter with methyl esters of amino acids gave the corresponding amides of methyl lambertianate. The compounds obtained were more cytotoxic toward CEM-13, MT-4, and U-937 tumor cell lines as compared with lambertianic acid; the dose inhibiting tumor cell viability by 50% (CCID50) of the more active compounds was 3.9–9.9 μM.  相似文献

An efficient asymmetric synthesis of 6-aminobicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid as a novel gamma-turn mimic has been achieved. Structural analysis of the gamma-amino acid derivative was carried out using (1)H NMR spectroscopy and intramolecular hydrogen bonding between side chain amides confirmed the turn structure, which had been predicted by Ab initio computational study.  相似文献

Bioisosteric replacement studies led to the identification of N-(1-benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl-ethyl)-3-(2-chloro-phenyl)-acrylamide ((S)-3) as a highly potent KCNQ2 opener, and 3-(2,6-difluoro-phenyl)-N-[1-(2,3-dihydro-benzofuran-5-yl)-ethyl]-acrylamide ((S)-4), and N-[1-(2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-5-yl)-ethyl]-3-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-acrylamide ((S)-5) as highly efficacious KCNQ2 openers. In contrast, their respective R enantiomers showed significantly less or no appreciable KCNQ2 opener activity even at the highest concentration tested (10 microM). Because of its high potency and moderate efficacy as well as its convenient synthesis, (+/-)-3 was selected as a reference compound for analyzing efficacies of KCNQ openers in electrophysiology studies. Compounds (S)-4 and (S)-5 demonstrated significant activity in reducing neuronal hyperexcitability in rat hippocampal slices. The synthesis and the KCNQ2 opener activity of these acrylamides are described.  相似文献

N-Substituted amides of endo-3-(3-methylthio-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-carboxylic acid and 1-(5-methylthio-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)cyclohexane-2-carboxylic acid were prepared by the condensation reaction of endo-S-methyl-N1-(bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2,3-dicarbonyl)isothiosemicarbazide and S-methyl-N1-(cyclohexane-2,3-dicarbonyl)isothiosemicarbazide with primary amines. The synthesized compounds were screened for their microbiological and pharmacological activities.  相似文献

Methodology previously described by our group was applied to the preparation of a series of 4-alkyl/aryl-substituted 1-[benzofuran-2-yl-phenylmethyl]-1H-triazoles. The [1,2,4]-triazole derivatives were prepared for a range of alkyl and aryl substituents, and for the 4-methyl, 4-ethyl, 4-(i)propyl, 4-(t)butyl, 4-phenyl and 4-chlorophenyl derivatives, the minor [1,3,4]-triazole isomer also isolated. All the triazole derivatives were evaluated for CYP26A1 inhibitory activity using a MCF-7 cell-based assay. The 4-ethyl and 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole derivatives displayed inhibitory activity (IC(50) 4.5 and 7 microM, respectively) comparable with that of the CYP26 inhibitor liarozole (IC(50) 7 microM). Using a CYP26A1 homology model (based on CYP3A4) template, docking experiments were performed with MOE with multiple hydrophobic interactions observed in addition to coordination between the triazole nitrogen and the haem transition metal.  相似文献

Two series of anhydride modified cantharidin analogues were synthesised and screened for their phosphatase inhibition (PP1 and PP2A) and cytotoxicity in various cancer cell lines (Ovarian A2780, ADDP; Osteosarcoma 143B; and Colon HCT116 and HT29). One series was synthesised by a novel, high yielding one-pot hydrogenation-ring-opening-esterification procedure, the other by acid catalysed acetal formation. Analogues 5-7 and 9 displayed moderate PP2A selectivity (ca. 5- to 20-fold) and inhibition typically in the low microM range (comparable, in some cases to cantharidin). The anticancer activity of these analogues varied with the cell line under study; however, many of them showed selective cytotoxicity for the colon tumour cell lines.  相似文献

One hundred and nineteen strains of microorganisms (yeasts, bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi) were screened as to the hydroxylation of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-7-carboxylic acid, bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene-7-syn-carboxylic acid, and their methyl esters. Several species belonging to the genera, Bacillus, Streptomyces, Penicillium, Aspergillus, Absidia, Beauveria, Cunninghamella, Drechslera, Mucor and Chaetomium, were found to asymmetrically hydroxylate some or all of the substrates. Bacillus thuringiensis and Aspergillus awamori were the most effective microorganisms for obtaining the chiral products, (lR)-2-hydroxy acids or esters, with enantiomeric purities of 75~90% e.e., which are potential intermediates for (?)-methyl jasmonate or natural prostaglandins.  相似文献

Their structures were determined through spectral analyses. Among the isolates, 11 compounds showed anti-platelet aggregation activity in vitro.  相似文献
