The clinical use of several first generation HIV protease inhibitors (PIs) is associated with the development of insulin resistance. Indinavir has been shown to act as a potent reversible noncompetitive inhibitor of zero-trans glucose influx via direct interaction with the insulin responsive facilitative glucose transporter GLUT4. Newer drugs within this class have differing effects on insulin sensitivity in treated patients. GLUTs are known to contain two distinct glucose-binding sites that are located on opposite sides of the lipid bilayer. To determine whether interference with the cytoplasmic glucose binding site is responsible for differential effects of PIs on glucose transport, intact intracellular membrane vesicles containing GLUT1 and GLUT4, which have an inverted transporter orientation relative to the plasma membrane, were isolated from 3T3-L1 adipocytes. The binding of biotinylated ATB-BMPA, a membrane impermeable bis-mannose containing photolabel, was determined in the presence of indinavir, ritonavir, atazanavir, tipranavir, and cytochalasin b. Zero-trans 2-deoxyglucose transport was measured in both 3T3-L1 fibroblasts and primary rat adipocytes acutely exposed to these compounds. PI inhibition of glucose transport correlated strongly with the PI inhibition of ATB-BMPA/transporter binding. At therapeutically relevant concentrations, ritonavir was not selective for GLUT4 over GLUT1. Indinavir was found to act as a competitive inhibitor of the cytoplasmic glucose binding site of GLUT4 with a K(I) of 8.2 μM. These data establish biotinylated ATB-BMPA as an effective probe to quantify accessibility of the endofacial glucose-binding site in GLUTs and reveal that the ability of PIs to block this site differs among drugs within this class. This provides mechanistic insight into the basis for the clinical variation in drug-related metabolic toxicity. 相似文献

A series of N-benzyl pseudopeptides was designed, synthesized and tested as HIV-1 protease inhibitors. The ability of the new compounds containing N-benzyl hydroxyalkylamino acid core structure to inhibit HIV replication in cell culture is comparable to their capacity to inhibit the isolated enzyme, a result compatible with good pharmacokinetic properties of these derivatives. The pseudotripeptide Fmoc-Leu-N(Bzl)Hse-Met-NH-tBu was the best inhibitor of the series (IC(50)=170 nM) showing promising inhibition of viral replication (ED(50)=52 nM). All new compounds exhibit high enzymatic resistance and stability against cell cultures and plasma enzymes. 相似文献

Development of potent inhibitors of HIV protease has revolutionized the treatment of HIV infection. HIV protease inhibitors (PI) have caused more dramatic improvements in CD4 T-cell numbers than in other therapies that were available previously, prompting investigators to assess whether PI possess intrinsic immunomodulatory effects. An emerging body of data indicates that HIV PIs are antiapoptotic, although the exact molecular target responsible for this antiapoptotic effect remains to be defined in vitro and in vivo. Paradoxically, high-dose PI also may have proapoptotic effects, particularly when assessed in vitro in transformed cell lines and implanted mouse models. Future research will define molecular targets of PI that are responsible for their apoptotis modulatory effects (both pro- and anti-apoptotic). In addition, evaluation of the clinical utility of PI-based therapy in those non-HIV disease states that are characterized by excessive apoptotis will reveal the full clinical potential of this intriguing class of drugs. 相似文献

A structural basis for variegating position effects 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25
Variegating position effects in Drosophila result from chromosome rearrangements where normal genes, having been placed next to heterochromatin, are inactivated in some cells but not in others, thereby producing a variegated tissue. We have determined that the euchromatic breakpoints for three variegating white mutants are clustered and lie approximately 25 kb downstream of the white structural gene. In each case the white locus is adjoined in the heterochromatin to a mobile genetic element. Satellite sequences are not involved. We also demonstrate that revertants of the variegating mutant, wm4, are reinversions that leave the initial wm4-heterochromatic junction intact so that some heterochromatin-derived sequences remain joined to white at its new location. These results suggest a simple model for understanding the structure of heterochromatic domains and how variegating position effects may arise. 相似文献

A new series of HIV protease inhibitors has been designed and synthesized based on the combination of the (R)-(hydroxyethylamino)sulfonamide isostere and the cyclic urea component of lopinavir. The series was optimized by replacing the 6-membered cyclic urea linker with an imidazolidine-2,4-dione which readily underwent N-alkylation to incorporate various methylene-linked heterocycle groups that bind favorably in site 3 of HIV protease. Significant improvements compared to lopinavir were seen in cell culture activity versus wild-type virus (pNL4-3) and the lopinavir-resistant mutant virus A17 (generated by in vitro serial passage of HIV-1 (pNL4-3) in MT-4 cells). Select imidazolidine-2,4-dione containing PIs were also more effective at inhibiting highly resistant patient isolates Pt1 and Pt2 than lopinavir. Pharmacokinetic data collected for compounds in this series varied considerably when coadministered orally in the rat with an equal amount of ritonavir (5 mg/kg each). The AUC values ranged from 0.144 to 12.33 microg h/mL. 相似文献

Plant asparaginyl endopeptidases (AEPs) are expressed as inactive zymogens that perform maturation of seed storage protein upon cleavage‐dependent autoactivation in the low‐pH environment of storage vacuoles. The AEPs have attracted attention for their macrocyclization reactions, and have been classified as cleavage or ligation specialists. However, we have recently shown that the ability of AEPs to produce either cyclic or acyclic products can be altered by mutations to the active site region, and that several AEPs are capable of macrocyclization given favorable pH conditions. One AEP extracted from Clitoria ternatea seeds (butelase 1) is classified as a ligase rather than a protease, presenting an opportunity to test for loss of cleavage activity. Here, making recombinant butelase 1 and rescuing an Arabidopsis thaliana mutant lacking AEP, we show that butelase 1 retains cleavage functions in vitro and in vivo. The in vivo rescue was incomplete, consistent with some trade‐off for butelase 1 specialization toward macrocyclization. Its crystal structure showed an active site with only subtle differences from cleaving AEPs, suggesting the many differences in its peptide‐binding region are the source of its efficient macrocyclization. All considered, it seems that either butelase 1 has not fully specialized or a requirement for autocatalytic cleavage is an evolutionary constraint upon macrocyclizing AEPs. 相似文献

We have studied the inhibition of HIV protease by the antifungal antibiotic cerulenin, as well as by several related synthetic, structurally simpler analogs. The effect of these compounds on HIV protease was conveniently studied by monitoring the cleavage of an authentic single peptide bond in a synthetic nonapeptide corresponding to a natural cleavage site in HIV-1 gag precursor polyprotein. The relative inhibitory effects of these compounds have afforded an insight into the structural characteristics which impart antiprotease activity. 相似文献

Rate constants for binding of five inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease were determined by stopped-flow spectrofluorometry. The two isomers of quinoline-2-carbonyl-Asn-Phe psi-[CH(OH)CH2N]Pro-O-t-Bu (R diastereomer = 1R; S diastereomer = 1S) quenched the protein fluorescence of HIV protease and thus provided a spectrofluorometric method to determine their binding rate constants. The dissociation rate constants for acetyl-Thr-Ile-Leu psi(CH2NH)Leu-Gln-Arg-NH2 (2), (carbobenzyloxy)-Phe psi[CH(OH)CH2N]Pro-O-t-Bu (3), and pepstatin were determined by trapping free enzyme with 1R as 2, 3, and pepstatin dissociated from the respective enzyme.inhibitor complex. Association rate constants of 1R, 2, and pepstatin were calculated from the time-dependent inhibition of protease-catalyzed hydrolysis of the fluorescent substrate (2-aminobenzoyl)-Thr-Ile-Nle-Phe(NO2)-Gln-Arg-NH2 (4). The kinetic data for binding of 1S to the protease fit a two-step mechanism. Kd values for these inhibitors were calculated from the rate constants for binding and were similar to the respective steady-state Ki values. 相似文献

Plasmodium cysteine proteases are essential for host-cell invasion and egress, hemoglobin degradation, and intracellular development of the parasite. The temporal, site-specific regulation of cysteine-protease activity is a prerequisite for survival and propagation of Plasmodium. Recently, a new family of inhibitors of cysteine proteases (ICPs) with homologs in at least eight Plasmodium species has been identified. Here, we report the 2.6?? X-ray crystal structure of the C-terminal, inhibitory domain of ICP from P. berghei (PbICP-C) in a 1:1 complex with falcipain-2, an important hemoglobinase of Plasmodium. The structure establishes Plasmodium ICP as a member of the I42 class of chagasin-like protease inhibitors but with large insertions and differences in the binding mode relative to other family members. Furthermore, the PbICP-C structure explains why host-cell cathepsin B-like proteases and, most likely, also the protease-like domain of Plasmodium SERA5 (serine-repeat antigen 5) are no targets for ICP. 相似文献

We examined, in soleus muscle, the effects of prolonged palmitate exposure (0, 6, 12, 18 h) on insulin-stimulated glucose transport, intramuscular lipid accumulation and oxidation, activation of selected insulin-signaling proteins, and the insulin-stimulated translocation of GLUT4. Insulin-stimulated glucose transport was progressively reduced after 6 h (-33%), 12 h (-66%), and 18 h (-89%) of palmitate exposure. These decrements were closely associated with concurrent reductions in palmitate oxidation at 6 h (-40%), 12 h (-60%), and 18 h (-67%). In contrast, intramuscular ceramide (+24%) and diacylglycerol (+32%) concentrations, insulin-stimulated AS160 (-36%) and PRAS40 (-33%) phosphorylations, and Akt (-40%), PKCtheta (-50%), and GLUT4 translocation (-40%) to the plasma membrane were all maximally altered within the first 6 h of palmitate treatment. No further changes were observed in any of these parameters after 12 and 18 h of palmitate exposure. Thus, the intrinsic activity of GLUT4 was markedly reduced after 12 and 18 h of palmitate treatment. During this reduced GLUT4 intrinsic activity phase at 12 and 18 h, the reduction in glucose transport was twofold greater compared with the early phase (< or =6 h), when only GLUT4 translocation was impaired. Our study indicates that palmitate-induced insulin resistance is provoked by two distinct mechanisms: 1) an early phase (< or =6 h), during which lipid-mediated impairments in insulin signaling and GLUT4 translocation reduce insulin-stimulated glucose transport, followed by 2) a later phase (12 and 18 h), during which the intrinsic activity of GLUT4 is markedly reduced independently of any further alterations in intramuscular lipid accumulation, insulin signaling and GLUT4 translocation. 相似文献

Advances in treatment have transformed the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection from a progressive and ultimately fatal disease to one that can be managed effectively by chronic suppressive antiretroviral therapy. The drugs now used to treat HIV infection not only inhibit viral replication but also have effects on cellular metabolism and homeostasis. Of particular interest to cellular immunologists, members of the HIV Protease Inhibitor (PI) class of antiretroviral agents possess intrinsic immunomodulatory and antiapoptotic properties. This review focuses on the development and use of PI together with their impact on HIV disease, immunity, and apoptosis. 相似文献

The incidence of HIV/Leishmania co-infection decreases after antiretroviral drug therapy; therefore, the in vitro and in vivo activity of three antiretroviral drugs against Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and L. (L.) amazonensis was evaluated. Different concentrations of indinavir (IDV), atazanavir (ATV), and ritonavir (RTV) were added to promastigote cultures, and the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) was determined. IDV and RTV were also evaluated against intracellular amastigotes, and the Infection Index determined. BALB/c mice, infected with L. (L.) amazonensis in the left footpad, were treated orally with IDV and RTV for 30days, and monitored by measuring the footpad thickness and parasite load of regional lymph nodes and spleen. For promastigotes, IDV exhibited an IC50 value of 100μM against L.(L.) amazonensis. The RTV IC50 for L. (L.) amazonensis and L. (V.) braziliensis were 40 and 2.3μM, respectively, and the ATV IC50 for L. (V.) braziliensis was 266μM. For intracellular amastigotes, IDV (25, 50, and 100μM) significantly decreased the Infection Index of L. (L.) amazonensis (56.8%, 47.9%, and 65.0%) and L. (V.) braziliensis (37.8%, 48.7%, and 43.2%). RTV (12.5, 25, and 50μM) decreased the infection index of L. (L.) amazonensis by 26.3%, 42.4%, and 44.0%, and that of L. (V.) braziliensis by 27.6%, 37.3%, and 39.2%. Antiretroviral-treated mice had a significant reduction in footpad thickness after the third week of IDV and after the fifth week of RTV treatment. However, there was no reduction in parasite load. These results suggest that IDV and RTV have anti-Leishmania activity, but only in higher concentrations. 相似文献

Regulatory effects of endogenous protease inhibitors in acute lung inflammatory injury 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

Inflammatory lung injury is probably regulated by the balance between proteases and protease inhibitors together with oxidants and antioxidants, and proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Rat tissue inhibitor of metalloprotease-2 (TIMP-2) and secreted leukoprotease inhibitor (SLPI) were cloned, expressed, and shown to be up-regulated at the levels of mRNA and protein during lung inflammation in rats induced by deposition of IgG immune complexes. Using immunoaffinity techniques, endogenous TIMP-2 in the inflamed lung was shown to exist as a complex with 72- and 92-kDa metalloproteinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9). In inflamed lung both TIMP-2 and SLPI appeared to exist as enzyme inhibitor complexes. Lung expression of both TIMP-2 and SLPI appeared to involve endothelial and epithelial cells as well as macrophages. To assess how these endogenous inhibitors might affect the lung inflammatory response, animals were treated with polyclonal rabbit Abs to rat TIMP-2 or SLPI. This intervention resulted in significant intensification of lung injury (as revealed by extravascular leak of albumin) and substantially increased neutrophil accumulation, as determined by cell content in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluids. These events were correlated with increased levels of C5a-related chemotactic activity in BAL fluids, while BAL levels of TNF-alpha and chemokines were not affected by treatment with anti-TIMP-2 or anti-SLPI. The data suggest that endogenous TIMP-2 and SLPI dynamically regulate the intensity of lung inflammatory injury, doing so at least in part by affecting the generation of the inflammatory mediator, C5a. 相似文献

HIV protease inhibitors acutely block glucose transporters (GLUTs) in vitro, and this may contribute to altered glucose homeostasis in vivo. However, several GLUT-independent mechanisms have been postulated. To determine the contribution of GLUT blockade to protease inhibitor-mediated glucose dysregulation, the effects of ritonavir were investigated in mice lacking the insulin-sensitive glucose transporter GLUT4 (G4KO). G4KO and control C57BL/6J mice were administered ritonavir or vehicle at the start of an intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test and during hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps. G4KO mice exhibited elevated fasting blood glucose compared with C57BL/6J mice. Ritonavir impaired glucose tolerance in control mice but did not exacerbate glucose intolerance in G4KO mice. Similarly, ritonavir reduced peripheral insulin sensitivity in control mice but not in G4KO mice. Serum insulin levels were reduced in vivo in ritonavir-treated mice. Ritonavir reduced serum leptin levels in C57BL/6J mice but had no effect on serum adiponectin. No change in these adipokines was observed following ritonavir treatment of G4KO mice. These data confirm that a primary effect of ritonavir on peripheral glucose disposal is mediated through direct inhibition of GLUT4 activity in vivo. The ability of GLUT4 blockade to contribute to derangements in the other molecular pathways that influence insulin sensitivity remains to be determined. 相似文献

The orphan nuclear receptor SXR coordinately regulates drug clearance in response to a wide variety of xenobiotic compounds. This signaling system protects the body from exposure to toxic compounds; however, it can also pose a severe barrier to drug therapy. We now demonstrate that the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease inhibitor ritonavir binds SXR and activates its target genes. This represents an example of a commonly used therapeutic agent that effectively activates SXR. We also show that other protease inhibitors are weaker (saquinavir) or unable to activate SXR (nelfinavir, indinavir) thus defining analogs that fail to induce SXR-regulated clearance pathways. Interestingly, HIV protease inhibitors are distinct from previously known SXR ligands in that they are peptide mimetic compounds. This expands the ligand specificity of SXR to include this unique chemical class whose pharmaceutical significance is expanding. Finally, we show that SXR ligands activate expression of multiple resistance protein 2, a critical regulator of bile flow and biliary drug excretion. These findings have important implications for the role of SXR in regulating drug clearance and hepatic disorders associated with impaired bile flow. 相似文献
