The binding of [3H]progesterone and [3H] 16 alpha,17 alpha-cycloalkanoprogesterones to proteins from rat, rabbit, and human uteri and other organs was studied. We found that 16 alpha,17 alpha-cycloalkanoprogesterone derivatives display affinities for the uterine progesterone receptors comparable with that of the natural hormone and no substantial species differences in the affinity. Rabbit uterus was found to have no proteins distinct from the progesterone receptor that specifically bind [3H] 16 alpha,17 alpha-cycloalkanoprogesterones. At the same time, in the human uterus, we found another protein that binds some of these progesterone derivatives; it turned out to be similar to the protein from rat uterus. A similar protein with the same selectivity and affinity for steroids was also found in rat and human kidneys. Blood serum, liver, lung, and a number of other tissues were found to contain a protein of the third type that binds the same 16 alpha,17 alpha-cycloalkanoprogesterones and exhibits submicromolar Kd values for these steroids and a very low affinity for progesterone. We speculated that the introduction of a bulky substituent adjacently to the 17 beta-side chain of progesterone could result in a change in the general biodynamics of the derivative including its transport, uptake, and accumulation in tissues, which may determine the selectivity of its effect. 相似文献

In this study, we evaluated 20 of our previously synthesized peptides on isolated rat uterus by Holton's procedure with minor modifications, and compared their activity with that assessed previously by their ability to inhibit vasodepressor response to exogenous bradykinin (BK) in conscious rats. We used [D-Arg(0), Hyp(3), Thi(5, 8), (D-Phe)(7)]BK, the B(2) antagonist of Vavrek and Stewart as a model when designing our analogs. We observed that, in the case of the rat uterus test, the activity of peptides modified by acylation of the N-terminus with various bulky groups depends substantially on the chemical character of the substituent. We also learned that, contrary to previous examples, acylation of the N-terminus of antagonists, which contain a sterically restricted fragment in the C-terminal part, may not improve their antagonistic potencies. Besides an improved characterization of a series BK analogs, our studies have provided new information on the structure-activity relationship, which in turn may be of value in the design of more potent and selective bradykinin antagonists. The results of our studies appear to support the hypothesis of others about the presence of different subtypes of B(2) receptors in rat uterus and blood vessels. 相似文献

Series of 3- and 19-oximes of 16alpha,17alpha-cyclohexanoprogesterone derivatives (pregna-d'-pentaranes) have been synthesized with the aim of probing the surfaces of progesterone receptor's and two other protein ligand binding pockets neighboring to 3- and 19-positions of steroid core. The same derivatives were also studied as possible intermediates for attachment to matrixes. The data on affinity constants suggest the presence of hydrophobic cavities with hydrophilic necks in the progesterone receptor and serum pentaranophylin near C19 of bound ligand and the lack of such a cavity in uterine pentaranophylin. Any of 3-oxime substitutions were found to significantly diminish the ligand affinity for the progesterone receptor. It was also found that some of these modifications, in the Z-configuration particularly, might increase the affinity for serum and uterine pentaranophylins. The latter finding suggests the presence of large cavities near C3 of bound ligand in these proteins and interchangeability between 3-keto and 3-oxime groups in ligand-protein interactions. 相似文献

(19R)- and (19S)-tert-Butyldimethylsilyl (TBS) ethers of 19-hydroxy-19-vinyl-16alpha,17alpha-cyclohexanopregn-5-en-20-ones were synthesized. These compounds containing the 1,5-oxydienoic motif were subjected to the anionic oxy-Cope rearrangement to obtain 3beta-TBS ether of 6beta-(3-oxopropyl)-16alpha,17alpha-cyclohexano-19-nor-pregn-5(10)-en-20-one. The structures of the compounds synthesized were confirmed by the analysis of their H and 13C NMR spectra. 相似文献

Interaction of proteins S16, S17 and S20 with 16 S ribosomal RNA 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
We have used rapid chemical probing methods to examine the effect of assembly of ribosomal proteins S16, S17 and S20 on the reactivity of individual residues of 16 S rRNA. Protein S17 strongly protects a compact region of the RNA between positions 245 and 281, a site previously assigned to binding of S20. Protein S20 also protects many of these same positions, albeit more weakly than S17. Strong S20-dependent protections are seen elsewhere in the 5' domain, most notably at positions 108, and in the 160-200 and 330 loop regions. Enenpectedly, S20 also causes protection of several bases in the 1430-1450 region, in the 3' minor domain. In the presence of the primary binding proteins S4, S8 and S20, we observe a variety of effects that result from assembly of the secondary binding protein S16. Most strongly protected are nucleotides around positions 50, 120, 300 to 330 and 360 in the 5' domain, and positions 606 to 630 in the central domain. In addition, numerous nucleotides in the 5' and central domains exhibit enhanced reactivity in response to S16. Interestingly, the strength of the S20-dependent effects in the 1430-1450 region is attenuated in the presence of S4 + S8 + S20, and restored in the presence of S4 + S8 + S20 + S16. Finally, the previously observed rearrangement of the 300 region stem-loop that occurs during assembly is shown to be an S16-dependent event. We discuss these findings with respect to assignment of RNA binding sites for these proteins, and in regard to the co-operativity of ribosome assembly. 相似文献

Microbial metabolism of steviol and steviol-16alpha,17-epoxide 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Steviol (2) possesses a blood glucose-lowering property. In order to produce potentially more- or less-active, toxic, or inactive metabolites compared to steviol (2), its microbial metabolism was investigated. Incubation of 2 with the microorganisms Bacillus megaterium ATCC 14581, Mucor recurvatus MR 36, and Aspergillus niger BCRC 32720 yielded one new metabolite, ent-7alpha,11beta,13-trihydroxykaur-16-en-19-oic acid (7), together with four known related biotransformation products, ent-7alpha,13-dihydroxykaur-16-en-19-oic acid (3), ent-13-hydroxykaur-16-en-19-alpha-d-glucopyranosyl ester (4), ent-13,16beta,17-trihydroxykauran-19-oic acid (5), and ent-13-hydroxy-7-ketokaur-16-en-19-oic acid (6). The preliminary testing of antihyperglycemic effects showed that 5 was more potent than the parent compound (2). Thus, the microbial metabolism of steviol-16alpha,17-epoxide (8) with M. recurvatus MR 36 was continued to produce higher amounts of 5 for future study of its action mechanism. Preparative-scale fermentation of 8 yielded 5, ent-11alpha,13,16alpha,17-tetrahydroxykauran-19-oic acid (10), ent-1beta,17-dihydroxy-16-ketobeyeran-19-oic acid (11), and ent-7alpha,17-dihydroxy-16-ketobeyeran-19-oic acid (13), together with three new metabolites: ent-13,16beta-dihydroxykauran-17-acetoxy-19-oic acid (9), ent-11beta,13-dihydroxy-16beta,17-epoxykauran-19-oic acid (12), and ent-11beta,13,16beta,17-tetrahydroxykauran-19-oic acid (14). The structures of the compounds were fully elucidated using 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques, as well as HRFABMS. In addition, a GRE (glucocorticoid responsive element)-mediated luciferase reporter assay was used to initially screen the compounds 3-5, and 7 as glucocorticoid agonists. Compounds 4, 5 and 7 showed significant effects. 相似文献

3 beta,16 alpha,19-Trihydroxy-5-androsten-17-one and 16 alpha,17-dihydroxy-4-androstene-3,17-dione were synthesized from the 5 alpha-bromo-6 beta,19-epoxy-17-ketone derivative 1, using the bromination at C-16 alpha of the 17-ketone 1 and the controlled alkaline hydrolysis of the 16 alpha-bromo-17-ketones 2 and 11 as key reactions. Zinc dust reductive cleavage of the 6 beta,19-epoxy-16 alpha-hydroxy-17-ketones 4 and 12, produced by controlled hydrolysis, gave the corresponding 19-alcohol derivatives 6 and 14, which were rearranged to the 17 beta-hydroxy-16-ketones 7 and 15 when treated with sodium hydroxide. The 3 beta,16 alpha,17 beta,19-tetrol 8 was obtained from the 16 alpha-ketol 6 by reaction with sodium borohydride. 相似文献

Reported free and bound molecular forms of alpha fetoprotein detected in immature uterine cytosol could be due to either selective uptake from the serum and/or intracellular synthesis by this tissue. In this study immature rat uterus synthesized initially immunounreactive bound alpha fetoprotein, which becomes immunoreactive after treatment with 0.4M KCl, but failed to synthesize free alpha fetoprotein. This indicates that bound alpha fetoprotein is not a conversion product of the free form, and suggests a relationship between alpha fetoprotein synthesis and uterine growth and development. 相似文献

Phospholipase A2 (PLA2), an enzyme which provides free arachidonic acid for the synthesis of prostaglandins (PG), has been studied in the rat uterus under various experimental conditions. Uterine PLA2 activity increased 14 fold in hypophysectomized rats implanted with Silastic capsules containing estradiol-17β as compared to those treated with oil vehicle. Dexamethasone treatment reduced the PLA2 activity induced by estrogen by 78%. Hypophysectomized animals treated with progesterone (2mg/day) for 5 days had low levels of uterine PLA2 activity but a single injection of estradiol (10ug/rat) given 24 h after the last injection of progesterone increased activity 5 fold within 12 h. Administration of the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide in the rats treated with progesterone, before and after injection of estradiol, prevented the stimulating action of the estrogen on PLA2 activity. If the estrogen was given at the time of the last injection of progesterone, PLA2 activity did not increase until 24 h later and the level was much less than when progesterone was absent. The results are consistent with the view that estrogen stimulates uterine prostaglandin production because of its effect upon PLA2; this effect can be greatly reduced by a glucocorticoid. Progesterone may modulate the PLA2 stimulating effect of estrogen in order to direct the production of specific PGs by regulating the amount of arachidonic acid available for PG synthetase. 相似文献

Previous studies from our laboratory demonstrated that normal, but not malignant tissues, contain a ligand which competes for [3H]estradiol binding to nuclear type II sites in the rat uterus. Since elevated nuclear levels of type II sites are correlated with estrogen stimulation of uterine growth and DNA synthesis, we believe this ligand may regulate cell growth. The present studies show that the ligand for nuclear type II sites also interacts with type II sites in uterine cytosol. This was demonstrated by dilution experiments which show that greater quantities of type II sites are measured in dilute (10 mg/ml) than in concentrated (40 mg/ml) uterine cytosol. Furthermore, stripping of uterine cytosol with 1% dextrancoated charcoal, or pre-binding cytosol type II sites to hydroxylapetite (HAP) prior to binding analysis, removed the ligand from these preparations such that high levels of type II sites were measured. Following charcoal stripping, cytosol type II sites demonstrated good specificity for estrogenic hormones but not progesterone, corticosterone, or the triphenylethylene anti-estrogen, nafoxidine. Since the level of type II sites in the cytosol always preceded and exceeded the level of this site measured in uterine nuclei at all times following estrogen treatment (0-96 h), we believe cytosol type II sites may function as an type II-ligand binding protein (LBP) which regulates the availability of the ligand for interaction with nuclear type II sites. This is consistent with our observation that type II sites are not depleted from uterine cytosol by estrogen treatment and nuclear type II sites are very tightly associated with the nuclear matrix. 相似文献

D-Homo derivatives in the androstane and estrane series, 12-19, were synthesized by a fragmentation-cyclization reaction of 16-oximino-17-hydroxy-17-substituted derivatives 3-9, or by cyclization of the corresponding D-seco derivatives 20-26. The structures were confirmed by X-ray analysis of compounds 12 and 16. Preliminary assessment of inhibitory effects of D-homo derivatives from androstane series towards aromatase, 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 beta-HSD), 17 alpha-hydroxylase/C17-20 lyase (P450c17) and 17 beta-HSD indicated much lower inhibitory potential compared to previously tested activity of another type of D-modified steroids, namely D-seco derivatives. Also, assessment of potential antiestrogenic activity of derivatives from estrane series showed absence of such an activity. 相似文献
