1-Hydroxy-2, 3, 5-trimethoxyxanthone (HM-1) is a xanthone isolated from Halenia elliptica, a Tibetan medicinal herb. HM-1 (0.33-42.1 microM) produced a concentration-dependent relaxation in rat coronary artery rings pre-contracted with 1 microM 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), with an EC(50) of 1.67+/-0.27 microM. Removal of the endothelium significantly affected the vasodilator potency of HM-1, resulting in 46% decrease in E(max) value. The endothelium-dependent effects of HM-1 was confirmed when its vasorelaxant effect was inhibited after addition of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor N(omega)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (100 microM) or the soluble guanylate cyclase inhibitor 1H-[1, 2, 4] oxadiazolo [4,3-alpha] quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ, 10 microM). Atropine (100 nM), flurbiprofen (10 microM), propranolol (100 microM), pyrilamine (10 microM), cimetidine (10 microM) and SQ22536 (100 microM) had no effect on the vasorelaxant activity of HM-1 indicated the non-involvement of other receptor/enzyme systems. In endothelium-denuded coronary artery rings, the vasorelaxant effect of HM-1 was unaffected by potassium channel blockers such as tetraethylammonium (10 mM), iberiotoxin (100 nM), barium chloride (100 microM) and 4-aminopyridine (1 mM). The involvement of Ca(2+) channel in 5-HT-primed artery ring preparations incubated with Ca(2+)-free buffer was confirmed when HM-1 (9.93 microM) partially abolished the CaCl(2)-induced vasoconstriction (87% inhibition in intact-endothelium artery rings; 50% inhibition in endothelium-denuded rings). In the KCl-primed preparations incubated with Ca(2+)-free buffer, HM-1 (9.93 microM) produced a 27.3% inhibition in endothelium-denuded rings. HM-1 (3.31-33.1 microM) had minimal relaxant effects (14.4%-20.3%) on the contractile response generated by 10 microM phorbol 12,13-diacetate (PDA) in Ca(2+)-free solutions, suggesting minimal effects on intracellular Ca(2+) mechanisms. These findings suggest the vasodilator action of HM-1 involved both an endothelium-dependent mechanism involving NO and an endothelium-independent mechanism by inhibiting Ca(2+) influx through L-type voltage-operated Ca(2+) channels; a minor contribution to the effects of HM-1 may be related to inhibition of the protein kinase C-mediated release of intracellular Ca(2+) stores. 相似文献

In this study, six major xanthones, isolated and identified from Halenia elliptica were investigated for their vasodilatory actions in isolated rat coronary artery. The xanthones, including 1-hydroxy-2,3,5-trimethoxy-xanthone (HM-1), 1-hydroxy-2,3,4,7-tetramethoxy-xanthone (HM-2), 1-hydroxy-2,3,4,5-tetramethoxy-xanthone (HM-3), 1,7-dihydroxy–2,3,4,5-tetramethoxy-xanthone (HM-4), 1,5-dihydroxy-2,3-dimethoxy-xanthone (HM-5) and 1,7-dihydroxy-2,3-dimethoxy-xanthone (HM-7) caused vasodilation in the coronary artery pre-contracted with 1 μM 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), with EC50 values ranging from 1.4±0.1 μM (HM-1) to 6.6±1.4 μM (HM-2). The EC50 values of the other xanthones were between those of HM-1 and HM-2. Removal of endothelium of the coronary artery led to decreases in the vasorelaxant effects of HM-1, HM-7 but not HM-2, HM-3, HM-4 and HM-5. Our results showed that xanthones isolated from Halenia elliptica are vasoactive substances which exhibit either endothelium-dependent or endothelium-independent mechanisms in rat coronary artery. The potency and mechanism(s) of the vasorelaxant effects of these xanthones may be relevant to the structure–activity differences in the level and the position of the substituent groups with the primary xanthone structure. 相似文献

Halenia elliptica D. Don is a Tibetan herb and medicinal preparations containing Halenia elliptica have been commonly used for the treatment of hepatitis B virus infection in China. The metabolism of 1-hydroxy-2,3,5-trimethoxy-xanthone (HM-1) to its metabolites is mediated through cytochrome P450 enzymes. This study aimed to investigate the herb-drug interaction potential of HM-1 by studying its effects on the metabolism of model probe substrates of five major CYP450 isoforms in human liver microsomes. HM-1 showed moderate inhibitory effects on CYP1A2 (IC(50)=1.06μM) and CYP2C9 (IC(50)=3.89μM), minimal inhibition on CYP3A4 (IC(20)=11.94μM), but no inhibition on model CYP2D6 (dextromethorphan) and CYP2E1 (chlorzoxazone) probe substrates. Inhibition kinetic studies showed that the K(i) values of HM-1 on CYP1A2, CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 were 5.12μM, 2.00μM and 95.03μM, respectively. HM-1 competitively inhibited testosterone 6β-hydroxylation (CYP3A4) but displayed mixed type inhibitions for phenacetin O-deethylation (CYP1A2) and tolbutamide 4-hydroxylation (CYP2C9). Molecular docking study confirmed the inhibition modes of HM-1 on these human CYP isoforms. 相似文献

The first chemical synthesis of 3α,7α-dihydroxy-5β-androstan-17-one and 3α-hydroxy-5β-androstane-7,17-dione is reported. In this method, the 17β-side chain of commercial chenodesoxycholic acid was degraded in 6 steps after selective protection of the hydroxyl groups : 3α-OH by a -butyldimetfaylsilyl group and 7α-OH by an acetoxy group. The capacity of 3α,7α-dihydroxy-5β-androstan-17-one and 3α-hydroxy-5β-androstane-7, 17-dione to release a pyrogen by human leukocytes was investigated by two independent methods : supernatants from leukocytes incubated with a steroid are injected to rabbits whose fever is measured, or tested by the Limulus Test (a pyrogen detection technique). The 7-keto substituted etiocholanolone still possessed pyrogenic activity, while the 7α-hydroxyl substituted one did not. 相似文献

3-Hydroxy-2-formylbenzothiophene (HFBT) is a metabolite found in many bacterial cultures that degrade dibenzothiophene (DBT) via the Kodama pathway. The fate of HFBT in cultures and in the environment is unknown. In this study, HFBT was produced by a DBT-degrading bacterium and purified by sublimation. When stored in organic solvent or as a crystal, the HFBT slowly decomposed, yielding colored products. Two of these were identified as thioindigo and cis-thioindigo. The supernatant of the DBT-degrading culture contained thioindigo, which has not been reported previously as a product of DBT biodegradation. In mineral salts medium, HFBT was sufficiently stable to allow biodegradation studies with a mixed microbial culture over a 3- to 4-week period. High-performance liquid chromatography analyses showed that HFBT was removed from the medium. 2-Mercaptophenylglyoxalate, detected as benzothiophene-2,3-dione, was found in an HFBT-degrading mixed culture, and the former appears to be a metabolite of HFBT. This mixed culture also mineralized HFBT to CO2. 相似文献

Chiral column liquid chromatography and enantiospecific enzymatic hydrolysis were utilized to separate the enantiomers of α- and β-dihydrotetrabenazine and α-9-O-desmethyldihydrotetrabenazine, three benzo[a]quinolizines derived from the amine-depleting drug tetrabenazine. An X-ray crystal structure analysis of (−)-α-9-O-desmethyldihydrotetrabenazine gave an absolute structure of that compound as the 2S, 3S, 11bS isomer. Therefore, (−)-α-dihydrotetrabenazine also has the 2S, 3S, 11bS absolute configuration. (+)-α-Dihydrotetrabenazine, the single biologically active isomer from the metabolic reduction of tetrabenazine, thus has the absolute configuration of 2R, 3R, 11bR. For further in vitro and in vivo studies of the vesicular monoamine transporter, it is now possible to use the single enantiomer of radiolabeled α-dihydrotetrabenazine.

A new metabolite of vitamin D3 was produced in vitro by perfusing rat kidneys with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (4 X 10(-6) M). It was isolated and purified from the lipid extract of the kidney perfusate by high-performance liquid chromatography. By means of ultraviolet absorption spectrophotometry, mass spectrometry, chemical derivatization, and chemical synthesis, the new metabolite was identified as 1,23-dihydroxy-24,25,26,27-tetranorvitamin D3. Along with the new metabolite, three other previously identified metabolites, namely, 1,24,25-trihydroxyvitamin D3, 1,25-dihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3, and 1,23,25-trihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3, were also isolated. The new metabolite was also formed when 1,23,25-trihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3 was used as the substrate. Thus, the new metabolite fits into the following metabolic pathway: 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3----1,24(R),25-trihydroxyvitamin D3----1,25-dihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3----1,23,25-trihydroxy-24-oxovitamin D3----1,23-dihydroxy-24,25,26,27-tetranorvitamin D3. Further, we used 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy[1 beta-3H]vitamin D3 in the kidney perfusion system and demonstrated 1,23-dihydroxy-24,25,26,27-tetranorvitamin D3 as the major further metabolite of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, circulating in the final perfusate when kidneys were perfused with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (6 X 10(-10) M) for 4 h. The biological activity of 1,23-dihydroxy-24,25,26,27-tetranorvitamin D3 (C-3 alcohol) and its metabolic relationship to 1-hydroxy-23-carboxy-24,25,26,27-tetranorvitamin D3 (calcitroic acid or C-23 acid), the other previously identified side-chain cleavage metabolite of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, are unknown and are presently undergoing investigation. 相似文献

The amorphane sesquiterpenes, deoxyarteannuin B and dihydro-deoxyarteannuin B, were isolated from Artemisia annua and their structures mainly determined by two-dimensional NMR spectoscopic analyses. The irregular monoterpene, trans-5-hydroxy-2-isopropenyl-5-methylhex-3-en-1-ol, was also characterized in the same way, and its structure was confirmed by synthesis from lavandulol. All of these natural products are suggested to be formed by autoxidation reactions. Full assignments of the 1H and 13C resonances for the known natural products epi-deoxyarteannuin B and isoannulide, determined by the same methodology, are also reported. 相似文献

A new metabolite, namely 2-acetamidoglucal, has been found in the urine of a patient with sialuria in addition to the metabolites N-acetylneuraminic acid, N-acetylmannosamine, N-acetylglucosamine and N-deoxy-2,3-dehydro-Nacetylneuraminic acid reported earlier. The structure has been identified by mass spectrometry and 360 MHz proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and verified by synthesis. All accumulated compounds fit into the metabolic pathway for the biosynthesis of CMP-N-acetylneuraminic acid. Sialuria is discussed in terms of a failure of regulation of UDP-N-acetyl-glucosamine 2-epimerase. 相似文献

A sensitive precolumn derivatization method has been developed to measure the 5'-triphosphate of 2'-beta-fluoro-2',3'-dideoxyadenosine (F-ddA, lodenosine), a new anti-HIV drug, in human lymphocytes by HPLC using fluorescence detection. Reaction of chloroacetaldehyde with F-ddA triphosphate in extracts from human lymphocytes produces a highly fluorescent etheno adduct. This derivative is then separated and quantitated by reverse-phase paired-ion chromatography. Degradation of natural nucleic acid ribosides, such as ATP, using periodate oxidation simplifies the chromatogram and minimizes interference with detection of the target analyte. This method, modeled using cultured MOLT-4 T-lymphocytes, achieves a linear detector response for peak area measurements over the range 2.5 to 22.5 pmol (50-450 nM using 50 microl sample). Analyte recovery is greater than 90%, and the method achieves a limit of detection and limit of quantitation of 1.4 and 2.5 pmol per HPLC injection (50 microl sample containing cellular extract from 2.5 x 10(6) cells), respectively. Application of this method to measure F-ddATP in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from HIV-infected patients treated with F-ddA at 3.2 mg/kg twice daily for 22 days shows F-ddATP levels which range from 1.5 to 3.5 pmol/10(6) cells. 相似文献

Synthesis of polydeuterated analogs of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 and 1 alpha,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 are described. These analogs, containing stable isotope atoms at metabolically stable positions, are potentially useful in studies involving catabolism of hydroxylated metabolites of vitamin D3. 相似文献

Mice fed a diet containing 1% (w/w) 3-hydroxy-4(1H)-pyridone (DHP) developed goitre even with a diet high in iodine whereas mimosine (0.5% w/w) did not produce goitre even with a low-iodine diet. Thyroid enlargement was apparent (measured morphometrically) by the 7th week and was advanced by the 11th week. Histologically the goitre was hyperplastic in type. No marked histological changes were found in other organs of mice fed DHP or any organs of mice fed mimosine, except for some atrophy of hair follicles. A single intragastric dose of DHP inhibited the uptake of 125I by the thyroid in the rat but an equivalent dose of mimosine did not. Evidence is presented that the inhibition occurs at the iodine binding step, as with methyl thiouracil, rather than at the iodide trapping step, as with thiocyanate. Chronic treatment of mice with DHP, as with 6-methyl thiouracil, increased the avidity of the thyroid in taking up 125I. The major conjugated form of DHP in mammals, DHP-3-O-glucuronide, was almost as effective a goitrogen as the unconjugated compound when given by mouth but considerably less active than the free form in the blood stream. It was concluded that DHP is a potent antithyroid compound of the thiouracil type with low general toxicity, since mammals can tolerate a level of intake sufficient to produce goitre in spite of iodine supplementation. 相似文献

Low concentrations of HPE and MLA inhibited state 3 respiration of rat liver mitochondria in the presence of different NAD+-dependent substrates. MLA appeared to be more active than HPE. High aldehyde concentrations inhibited the state 3 respiration with succinate. The restraint of succinate oxidation by HPE and MLA and of glutamate plus malate oxidation by MLA correlated with the inhibition of succinate and glutamate dehydrogenase activites, respectively. HPE inhibited glutamate dehydrogenase at concentrations higher than those affecting glutamate oxidation. Malate dehydrogenase activity was slightly sensitive to HPE and MLA. Both aldehydes inhibited NADH oxidation by freeze-thawed mitochondria. These results suggest the existence of a site particularly sensitive to aldehydes in the electron transport chain between the specific NAD+-linked dehydrogenases and ubiquinone. 相似文献

Screening of Malbranchea filamentosa IFM 41300 for bioactive compounds led to the identification of 4-benzyl-3-phenyl-5H-furan-2-one (1) as a vasodilator and erythroglaucin (2). The structure of 1 was established on the basis of spectroscopic and chemical investigations. Compound 1 inhibited Ca2+-induced vasocintraction in aortic rings pretreated with high K+ (60mM) or norepinephrine. Finally, compound 1 did not exhibit activity against human pathogenic microorganisms. 相似文献
