We synthesized and isolated 2α-substituted analogs of 14-epi-previtamin D3 after thermal isomerization at 80 °C for the first time. The VDR binding affinity and transactivation activity of osteocalcin promoter in HOS cells were evaluated, and the 2α-methyl-substituted analog was found to have greater genomic activity than 14-epi-previtamin D3.  相似文献

We have synthesized four new geometric isomers of 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-2-(2'-fluoroethylidene)-19-norvitamin D analogs 1 and 2 having a 20R- and 20S-configuration, whose structures are correlated with 2MD possessing high potencies in stimulating bone formation in vitro and in vivo. The E-isomers of (20R)- and (20S)-2-fluoroethylidene analogs 1a and 1b were comparable with the natural hormone 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3) in binding to the vitamin D receptor (VDR), while two Z-isomers 2a and 2b were about 15-20 times less active than the hormone. In inducing expression of the vitamin D responsive element-based luciferase reporter gene, the E-isomers 1a and 1b were 1.2- and 8.6-fold more potent than the hormone, respectively, while the Z-isomers 2a and 2b had 27-55% of the potency. On the basis of the biological activities and a docking simulation based on X-ray crystallographic analysis of the VDR ligand-binding pocket, the structure-activity relationships of the fluorinated 19-norvitamin D analogs are discussed.  相似文献

Structure-functional characterization of vitamin D receptor (VDR) requires identification of structurally distinct areas of VDR-ligand-binding domain (VDR-LBD) important for biological properties of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3). We hypothesized that covalent attachment of the ligand into VDR-LBD might alter ‘surface structure’ of that area influencing biological activity of the ligand. We compared anti-proliferative activity of three affinity alkylating derivatives of 1,25(OH)2D3 containing an alkylating probe at 1,3 and 11 positions. These compounds possessed high-affinity binding for VDR; and affinity labeled VDR-LBD. But, only the analog with probe at 3-position significantly altered growth in keratinocytes, compared with 1,25(OH)2D3. Molecular models of these analogs, docked inside VDR-LBD tentatively identified Ser237 (helix-3: 1,25(OH)2D3-1-BE), Cys288 (β-hairpin region: 1,25(OH)2D3-3-BE,) and Tyr295 (helix-6: 1,25(OH)2D3-11-BE,) as amino acids that are potentially modified by these reagents. Therefore, we conclude that the β-hairpin region (modified by 1,25(OH)2D3-3-BE) is most important for growth inhibition by 1,25(OH)2D3, while helices 3 and 6 are less important for such activity.  相似文献

The crystal structures of vitamin D nuclear receptor (VDR) have revealed that all compounds are anchored by the same residues to the ligand binding pocket (LBP). Based on this observation, a synthetic analog with a locked side chain (21-nor-calcitriol-20(22),23-diyne) has been synthesized in order to gain in entropy energy with a predefined active side chain conformation. The crystal structure of VDR LBD bound to this locked side chain analogue while confirming the docking provides a structural basis for the activity of this compound.  相似文献

The relationship between the A-ring chair conformation of vitamin D compounds and their ability to bind the vitamin D receptor (VDR) has long attracted the attention of many researchers. It was established that in the crystalline complexes of hVDRmt with the natural hormone, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1), and its side-chain analogs the vitamins exist in β-chair form with an equatorial orientation of 1α-OH. However, with all these ligands the interconversion between both A-ring forms would be possible in solution. In an attempt to verify the conformation of vitamin D compounds required for binding the VDR we prepared analog 4, characterized by the presence of an axial 1α-hydroxy group. Since the additional ring connecting 3β-oxygen and C-2 prevents A-ring conformational flexibility, the synthesized vitamin 4 can exist exclusively in the α-chair form. The geometrical isomer 5 with a free 3β-OH group was also obtained. The analog 5 binds very poorly to VDR, whereas the vitamin 4 is practically devoid of binding ability. Both compounds also show very low HL-60-differentiating activity. When tested in vivo in mice the analogs 4 and 5 exhibit significant calcemic responses with analog 4 showing more activity than analog 5.  相似文献

We synthesized all eight possible A-ring diastereomers of 2-methyl substituted analogs of 1alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1alpha,25(OH)2D3] and also all eight A-ring diastereomers of 2-methyl-20-epi-1alpha,25(OH)2D3. Their biological activities, especially the antagonistic effect on non-genomic pathway-mediated responses induced by 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 or its 6-s-cis-conformer analog, 1alpha,25(OH)2-lumisterol3, were assessed using an NB4 cell differentiation system. Antagonistic activity was observed for the 1beta-hydroxyl diastereomers, including 2beta-methyl-1beta,25(OH)2D3 and 2beta-methyl-3-epi-1beta,25(OH)2D3. Very interestingly, 2beta-methyl-3-epi-1alpha,25(OH)2D3 also antagonized the non-genomic pathway, despite its 1alpha-hydroxyl group. Other 1alpha-hydroxyl diastereomers did not show antagonistic activity. 20-epimerization diminished the antagonistic effect of all of these analogs on the non-genomic pathway. These findings suggested that the combination of the 2-methyl substitution of the A-ring and 20-epimerization of the side chain could alter the biological activities in terms of antagonism of non-genomic pathway-mediated biological response. Based on a previous report, 2-methyl substitution alters the equilibrium of the A-ring conformation between the alpha- and beta-chair conformers. The 2beta-methyl diastereomers, which exhibited antagonism on non-genomic pathway-mediated response, were considered to prefer the beta-conformer. Further examination to elucidate the relationship between the altered ligand shape and receptors interaction will be important for molecular level understanding of the mechanism of antagonism of the non-genomic pathway.  相似文献

The synthesis, receptor binding affinity, estrogenic potency and tissue distribution of the 7alpha-cyano derivatives of the (17alpha,20E/Z)-[125I]iodovinyl-(CIVE) and 16alpha-[125I]iodo-estradiols (CIE) are reported. The iodovinyl derivatives were prepared via the (17alpha,20E/Z)-tri-n-butylstannyl intermediates, derived from the addition of tri-n-butyl tin hydride to the 17alpha-ethynyl group of the 7alpha-cyano-17alpha-ethynylestradiol, using triethylborane as a catalyst. The no-carrier-added [125I]-CIVE isomers were prepared via the same stereospecific reaction. [125I]-CIE was prepared from 7alpha-cyano-16beta-bromoestradiol via halogen exchange with Na125I. Addition of the 7alpha-cyano group to 16alpha-iodoestradiol did not affect estrogen receptor binding affinity (RBA of CIE is 115). However the estrogenic potential of CIE, as measured by the capacity to stimulate the expression of the pS2 gene, was reduced to 1% as compared to that of estradiol. Addition of a 7alpha-cyano group to the (17alpha,20E/Z)-IVE isomers reduced the RBA to 21 and 36, respectively, while the estrogenic potential was reduced to 2-3% of that of estradiol. Uterus uptake in immature rats of the 125I-labeled CIVE 20E-isomer and the 16alpha-iodo CIE peaked at 0.5h post injection while the (17alpha,20Z)-CIVE isomer showed a maximum only past 5h post injection. Uptake of all three 125I-labeled 7alpha-cyanoestrogens was suppressed by the co-injection of non-radioactive estradiol confirming the role of estrogen receptors in the localization process. Uterus retention pattern differ substantially from those of the analogues 7alpha-methylestrogens, which were previously shown to give high maximum 125I-uptake values at 2h post injection. Overall our data indicate that addition of a 7alpha-cyano group to 123I-labeled estrogens does not improve their potential to serve as SPECT agents for the imaging of estrogen receptor densities in breast cancer.  相似文献

Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) increases the growth and osteolytic potential of prostate cancer cells, making it important to control PTHrP expression in these cells. We show that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) and its non-hypercalcemic analog, EB1089, decrease PTHrP mRNA and cellular protein levels in the androgen-dependent human prostate cancer cell line LNCaP and its androgen-independent derivative, the C4-2 cell line. This effect is mediated via a negative Vitamin D response element (nVDREhPTHrP) within the human PTHrP gene and involves an interaction between nVDREhPTHrP and the Vitamin D receptor (VDR). The retinoid X receptor (RXR) is a frequent heterodimeric partner of the VDR. We show that RXRalpha forms part of the nuclear protein complex that interacts with nVDREhPTHrP along with the VDR in LNCaP and C4-2 cells. We also show that the RXR ligand, 9-cis-retinoic acid, downregulates PTHrP mRNA levels; this decrease is more pronounced in LNCaP than in C4-2 cells. In addition, 9-cis-retinoic acid enhances the 1,25(OH)2D3-mediated downregulation of PTHrP expression in both cell lines; this effect also is more pronounced in LNCaP cells. Proliferation of LNCaP, but not C4-2, cells is decreased by 9-cis-retinoic acid. Promoter activity driven by nVDREhPTHrP cloned upstream of the SV40 promoter and transiently transfected into LNCaP and C4-2 cells is downregulated in response to 1,25(OH)2D3 and EB1089 in both cell lines. Co-treatment with these compounds and 9-cis-retinoic acid further decreases CAT activity in LNCaP, but not C4-2, cells. These results indicate that PTHrP gene expression is regulated by 1,25(OH)2D3 in a cell type-specific manner in prostate cancer cells.  相似文献

Many efforts have been made to obtain active and less toxic Vitamin D analogs for new clinical applications. The results of previous studies demonstrated the efficacy and safety of topical treatment of psoriasis with one of these analogs, 1,24-dihydroxyvitamin D(3), tacalcitol (1,24-(OH)(2)D(3)). In the present study, we evaluated the toxicity and antitumor effect of this analog. Lethal toxicity of 1,24-(OH)(2)D(3) after s.c. injection was significantly lower than that of calcitriol. No significant differences were observed in the toxicity of the analogs when administered p.o. Calcium levels in the serum of mice treated with calcitriol were significantly higher (111%) than those in mice treated with 1,24-(OH)(2)D(3) (89%) at 5 day after the first s.c. (10 microg/kg/day) administration in comparison to the control (healthy, untreated animals). Oral administration increased the calcium level by 78% for calcitriol and only to 47% over the control for 1,24-(OH)(2)D(3). Parallel administration of clodronate prevented the calcitriol- and 1,24-(OH)(2)D(3)-induced lethal toxicity and also prevented increase in calcium levels. Single therapy with calcitriol did not affect tumor growth in the 16/C mouse mammary cancer model. In contrary, 1,24-(OH)(2)D(3) alone reduced tumor volume to 41% of control. Cisplatin alone did not affect growth of 16/C tumor in these conditions. The growth of tumors in the presence of cisplatin was inhibited by 1,24-(OH)(2)D(3) but not by calcitriol. Interestingly, the inhibition of tumor growth in cisplatin-treated mice by 1,24-(OH)(2)D(3) was greater, than that observed in mice treated with this analog alone. In conclusion, 1,24-(OH)(2)D(3) revealed higher antitumor and lower calcemic activity and toxicity than calcitriol. Application of biphosphonates along with Vitamin D analogs is sufficient to overcome the calcemic and toxic side effects of the proposed treatment.  相似文献

Construction of 25-hydroxy-steroidal side chain substituted with iodine at C-22 was elaborated on a model PTAD-protected steroidal 5,7-diene and applied to a synthesis of (22R)- and (22S)-22-iodo-1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. Configuration at C-22 in the iodinated vitamins, obtained by nucleophilic substitution of the corresponding 22S-tosylates with sodium iodide, was determined by comparison of their iodine-displacement processes and cyclizations leading to isomeric five-membered (22,25)-epoxy-1α-hydroxyvitamin D3 compounds. Also, 20(22)-dehydrosteroids have been obtained and their structures established by 1H NMR spectroscopy. When compared to the natural hormone, (E)-20(22)-dehydro-1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 was found 4 times less potent in binding to the porcine intestinal vitamin D receptor (VDR) and 2 times less effective in differentiation of HL-60 cells. 22-Iodinated vitamin D analogues showed somewhat lower in vitro activity, whereas (22,25)-epoxy analogues were inactive. Interestingly, it was established that (22S)-22-iodo-1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 was 3 times more potent than its (22R)-isomer in binding to VDR and four times more effective in HL-60 cell differentiation assay. The restricted mobility of the side chain of both 22-iodinated vitamin D compounds was analyzed by a systematic conformational search indicating different spatial regions occupied by their 25-oxygen atoms. Preliminary data on the in vivo calcemic activity of the synthesized vitamin D analogues indicate that (E)-20(22)-dehydro-1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and 22-iodo-1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 isomers were ca. ten times less potent than the natural hormone 1α,25-(OH)2D3 both in intestinal calcium transport and bone calcium mobilization.  相似文献

The steroid hormone 1,25(OH)2-vitamin D3 [1,25D] has been shown to affect the growth and proliferation of primary cultures of ventricular myocytes isolated from neonatal rat hearts. The research presented here shows that the vitamin D receptor [VDR] is present in murine cardiac myocytes (HL-1 cells), and that 1,25D affects the growth, proliferation and morphology of these cells. In addition we show that 1,25D effects expression of ANP, myotrophin, and c-myc. Furthermore, 1,25D effects expression and localization of the VDR within the cell. Murine HL-1 cardiac myocytes were grown and treated with 1,25D in culture, and growth and morphology were assessed with microscopic analysis. Cells were counted and protein levels were evaluated through Western blot analysis. Subcellular localization of the VDR was determined using immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy. 1,25D was found to decrease proliferation and alter cellular morphology of the HL-1 cells. Treatment with 1,25D increased expression of myotrophin while decreasing expression of atrial natriuretic peptide [ANP] and c-myc. 1,25D treatment also increased expression and nuclear localization of the VDR in these cardiac myocytes. Thus 1,25D is an important hormone involved in modulating and maintaining heart cell structure and function.  相似文献

vitamin D is 25-hydroxylated in the liver, before being activated by 1alpha-hydroxylation in the kidney. Recently, the rat cytochrome P450 2J3 (CYP2J3) has been identified as a principal vitamin D 25-hydroxylase in the rat [Yamasaki T, Izumi S, Ide H, Ohyama Y. Identification of a novel rat microsomal vitamin D3 25-hydroxylase. J Biol Chem 2004;279(22):22848-56]. In this study, we examine whether human CYP2J2 that exhibits 73% amino acid homology to rat CYP2J3 has similar catalytic properties. Recombinant human CYP2J2 was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, purified, and assayed for vitamin D 25-hydroxylation activity. We found significant 25-hydroxylation activity toward vitamin D3 (turnover number, 0.087 min(-1)), vitamin D2 (0.16 min(-1)), and 1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3 (2.2 min(-1)). Interestingly, human CYP2J2 hydroxylated vitamin D2, an exogenous vitamin D, at a higher rate than it did vitamin D3, an endogenous vitamin D, whereas, rat CYP2J3 hydroxylated vitamin D3 (1.4 min(-1)) more efficiently than vitamin D2 (0.86 min(-1)). Our study demonstrated that human CYP2J2 exhibits 25-hydroxylation activity as well as rat CYP2J3, although the activity of human CYP2J2 is weaker than rat CYP2J3. CYP2J2 and CYP2J3 exhibit distinct preferences toward vitamin D3 and D2.  相似文献
