A novel series of derivatives of mono- and diaminopyrimidines 1 potently displaced binding of a radiolabeled GnRH analogue to human and rat GnRH receptors. Analogues from these series competitively antagonized GnRH-stimulated increases in extracellular acidification in vitro and suppressed GnRH-mediated increases in circulating luteinizing hormone (LH) in castrated rats and testosterone in intact rats. These compounds or their analogues may be useful in treating sex hormone-dependent disease. 相似文献

Efforts to develop orally available gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonists have led to the discovery of several classes of potent nonpeptide antagonists. Here we investigated molecular interactions of three classes of nonpeptide antagonists with human, rat, and macaque GnRH receptors. Although all are high affinity ligands of the human receptor (K(i) <5 nm), these compounds show reduced affinity for the macaque receptor and bind only weakly (K(i) >1 microm) to the rat receptor. To identify residues responsible for this selectivity, a series of chimeric receptors and mutant receptors was constructed and evaluated for nonpeptide binding. Surprisingly, 4 key residues located in the amino terminus (Met-24) and extracellular loops II (Ser-203, Gln-208) and III (Leu-300) of the GnRH receptor appear to be primarily responsible for species-selective binding. Comparisons of reciprocal mutations suggest that these may not be direct contacts but rather may be involved in organizing extracellular portions of the receptor. These data are novel because most previous reports of residues involved in binding of nonpeptide ligands to peptide-activated G protein-coupled receptors, including the GnRH receptor as well as mono-amine receptors, have identified binding sites in the transmembrane regions. 相似文献

A series of 7-substituted melatonin and 1-methylmelatonin analogues were prepared and tested against human and amphibian melatonin receptors. 7-Substituents reduced the agonist potency of all the analogues in the Xenopus laevis melanophore assay, 7-bromomelatonin (5d) and N-butanoyl 7-bromo-5-methoxytryptamine (5f) being the most active compounds, but both were 42-fold less potent than melatonin (1). Whereas all the analogues bind with lower affinity at the human MT(1) receptor than melatonin, 5d, 5f and N-propanoyl 7-bromo-5-methoxytryptamine (5e) show a similar binding affinity to melatonin at the MT(2) receptor and consequently show some MT(2) selectivity. These results suggest that the receptor pocket around C-7 favours binding by an electronegative group, suggesting an electropositive region in this area of the receptor. 相似文献

Antagonism of the gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor has resulted in positive clinical results in reproductive tissue disorders such as endometriosis and prostate cancer. Following the recent discovery of orally active GnRH antagonists based on a 4-piperazinylbenzimidazole template, we sought to investigate the properties of heterocyclic isosteres of the benzimidazole template. We report here the synthesis and biological activity of eight novel scaffolds, including imidazopyridines, benzothiazoles and benzoxazoles. The 2-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-8-(piperazin-1-yl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine ring system was shown to have nanomolar binding potency at the human and rat GnRH receptors as well as functional antagonism in vitro. Additional structure–activity relationships within this series are reported along with a pharmacokinetic comparison to the benzimidazole-based lead molecule. 相似文献

There have been numerous reports of the inhibitory effects of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and its agonistic and antagonistic analogues on carcinomas derived from various organs, and in particular the direct inhibitory effects have been extensively studied. On the other hand, several studies have indicated that GnRH stimulates the proliferation of lymphoid tissues and cells, suggesting that GnRH is an immunomodulator. However, there have been few reports showing a stimulatory effect of GnRH on cell lines not derived from lymphoid tissues, and the mechanism of the stimulatory effect has not been investigated in detail. In this study, the stimulatory effect of GnRH (100 pM) on TSU-Pr1, a human prostatic carcinoma cell line, was demonstrated, and the dose-depedency of this effect of GnRH (3.125 fM approximately 20 nM) was observed by measuring colony-formation. RT-PCR analysis showed that both human GnRH receptor 1 and 2 are expressed in TSU-Pr1 cells, suggesting that this stimulatory effect of GnRH occurs through GnRH receptor(s). To our knowledge, this is the first report showing the stimulatory effect of GnRH on a prostatic carcinoma cell line. Moreover, we also examined the effect of conditioned medium of TSU-Pr1 cells and found that it inhibited the GnRH activity only on TSU-Pr1 cells. This characteristic of the conditioned medium of TSU-Pr1 cells is different from that of HHUA or Jurkat cells described in our previous study. TSU-Pr1 cells the proliferation of which is stimulated by GnRH can yield important clues about the mechanisms of the effects of GnRH on cell proliferation. 相似文献

Evidence suggests that exogenous GnRH and agonist analogues have short-term stimulatory effects on rat Leydig cell function - when administered intratesticularly. Since rat Leydig cells possess GnRH receptors and their endogenous ligand has not yet been identified the physiological importance of the observations for testis function is unknown. To address this issue we have determined the consequences of blockade of testis GnRH receptors on Leydig cell function under both normogonadotrophic and hypogonadotrophic stimulation of the testis in vivo. A GnRH antagonist (ANT) was used to achieve receptor blockade but during continuous systemic infusion ANT occupied pituitary GnRH receptors and markedly reduced serum LH, FSH, testosterone, and intratesticular testosterone in adult and 30 d old immature male rats. These results were similar to those obtained by administration of a GnRH antiserum which did not bind to testis GnRH receptors. Thus, blockade of testis GnRH receptors during hypogonadotrophism did not produce additional inhibition of steroidogenesis by Leydig cells. However, direct continuous infusion of ANT into one testis produced greater than 90% occupancy of GnRH receptors while reducing GnRH receptors by only 50% in the contralateral testis. Unilateral intratesticular infusion did not reduce serum LH, FSH, Prolactin or testosterone levels despite 75% occupancy of pituitary GnRH receptors. Thus, both ANT infused and saline infused testes were exposed to the same gonadotrophic stimulants but in the former GnRH-R were essentially non-existent. Compared to the control testis, the ANT infused testis showed a 20-30% reduction in LH, FSH, lactogen receptors and 30-40% fall in testosterone content. Identical results were obtained in adult and 30 d-old male rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A novel series of 2-(4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridin-3-yl)-ethylamine derivatives were designed and synthesized as GnRH receptor antagonists. SAR studies led to a series of highly active molecules against both the rat and human receptors. Furthermore, one potent compound, 17j, demonstrated dose-dependent LH suppression in castrated rats. 相似文献

TRH analogues containing C-terminal tioamide group and norvaline ([Nva2, Prot3] TRH) or norleucine ([Nle2, Prot3] TRH) in position 2 were synthesized and tested for hormonal and central nervous system (CNS) activities. Receptor binding studies revealed that the analogues neither bind to pituitary nor to brain TRH receptors. Accordingly, no TSH releasing activity was recorded. However, both analogues significantly affected sleeping time and breathing frequency. Dissociation of endocrine effects from those on the CNS of [Prot3] TRH was achieved with the replacement of histidine2 by aliphatic amino acids. The presence of central histidine is not essential for the analogues to be active on the CNS. 相似文献

A total of 24 aryl-substituted analogues of nicotine (1a) and two related series of nicotinic ligands, aminomethylpyridines 3 and ether analogues 8, were examined to determine if they bind at alpha4beta2 nACh receptors in a common manner. A modest correlation (r=0.785) was found between the affinities of the nicotine analogues and derivatives of 3, but little correlation (r=0.348) was found with analogues 8. However, a modest correlation (r=0.742) exists between the binding of analogues 3 and 8. It seems that 1-series and 8-series compounds bind differently but that the 3-series compounds share some intermediate binding similarity with both. 相似文献

A set of GnRH analogues containing nuclear localization signal (NLS) of SV-40 virus large T-antigen have been synthesized using solid phase peptide synthesis and chemical ligation technique. Selective chemical ligation was achieved as a result of hydrazone formation in the course of interaction between NLS hydrazide and GnRH analog modified by pyruvic acid. The efficiency of synthesized peptide carriers was demonstrated in experiments with human cancer cells transfected by reporter luciferase and beta-galactosidase genes or suicide HSV-1 thymidine kinase gene. It was shown that selectivity of action on cancer cells can be achieved as a result of peptide/DNA complex penetration through the cell membrane by GnRH receptor-mediated endocytosis pathway. 相似文献

A series of pyrimidine analogues derived from ATC0175 were potent antagonists of human MCH-R1 in vitro. Significantly improved receptor selectivity was achieved with several analogues from this series, but no improvement in brain partitioning was noted. One example from this series was shown to inhibit food intake and decrease body weight in a chronic study. However no clear correlation between the pharmacodynamic effect and the pharmacokinetic data with respect to brain concentration was discernible leading us to conclude that the observed effect was most likely not due to interaction with the MCH-R1. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) presumably controls placental growth and functions by autocrine/paracrine mechanisms, and is therefore an important part of the neuroendocrine network in human placenta. AIM: Our earlier work had indicated that GnRH was expressed in human placenta; in extension to these findings, we wanted to analyse synthesis and release of GnRH by trophoblastic cells. GnRH-associated peptide, co-linearly synthesised with GnRH, was used as indicator of actual peptide synthesis. METHOD: First, we immunised rabbits with lipopeptides containing partial sequences of GnRH-associated peptide (GAP) and developed antibodies for immunohistochemical staining. Second, we set up a competitive enzyme immunoassay to measure GnRH: Non-biotinylated GnRH, GnRH analogues or trophoblastic cell culture supernatants were used to inhibit binding of biotinylated des-pGlu1-GnRH to a monoclonal anti-GnRH antibody. RESULTS: a) Placental sections stained positive for GAP in the layers of trophoblastic cells. b) GnRH could be detect by a competitive EIA in supernatants of placental cultures in concentrations between 200 and 5 nM. CONCLUSIONS: GnRH is synthesised and released by trophoblastic cells. 相似文献

Two mutations in extracellular loop 2 of the human GnRH receptor convert an antagonist to an agonist

GnRH regulates the reproductive system through cognate G protein-coupled receptors in vertebrates. Certain GnRH analogs that are antagonists at mammalian receptors behave as agonists at Xenopus laevis and chicken receptors. This phenomenon provides the opportunity to elucidate interactions and the mechanism underlying receptor activation. A D-Lys(iPr) in position 6 of the mammalian GnRH receptor antagonist is required for this agonist activity (inositol phosphate production) in the chicken and X. laevis GnRH receptors. Chimeric receptors, in which extracellular loop domains of the human GnRH receptor were substituted with the equivalent domains of the X. laevis GnRH receptor, identified extracellular loop 2 as the determinant for agonist activity of one of the mammalian antagonists: antagonist 135-18. Site-directed mutagenesis of nine nonconserved residues in the C-terminal domain of extracellular loop 2 of the human GnRH receptor showed that a minimum of two mutations (Val(5.24(197))Ala and Trp(5.32(205))His) is needed in this region for agonist activity of antagonist 135-18. Agonist activity of antagonist 135-18 was markedly decreased by low pH (<7.0) compared with GnRH agonists. These findings indicate that D-Lys(iPr)(6) forms a charge-supported hydrogen bond with His(5.32(205)) to stabilize the receptor in the active conformation. This discovery highlights the importance of EL-2 in ligand binding and receptor activation in G protein-coupled receptors. 相似文献

An in vitro system using the minces of placental villi from first trimester human pregnancy (6-10 weeks) has been validated to examine the effect of addition of GnRH and its analogues on hCG secreted into the medium. Addition of low concentration of GnRH or its analogues (1 X 10(-8) M to 1 X 10(-6) M) resulted in an increase in the quantity of hCG in the medium, while addition of high concentrations of GnRH resulted in an inhibitory effect. Of the analogues tested, Buserelin was highly effective in exerting an inhibitory effect. A significant increase in 35S-methionine incorporation into immunoprecipitable hCG was noticed in the presence of GnRH. These results suggests that GnRH stimulates both synthesis and secretion of hCG by first trimester human placenta. 相似文献

Four functional GnRH receptors in zebrafish: analysis of structure, signaling, synteny and phylogeny
Reproduction in all vertebrates requires the brain hormone gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) to activate a cascade of events leading to gametogenesis. All vertebrates studied to date have one to three forms of GnRH in specific but different neurons in the brain. In addition, at least one type of GnRH receptor is present in each vertebrate for activation of specific physiological events within a target cell. Humans possess two types of GnRH (GnRH1 and GnRH2) but only one functional GnRH receptor. Zebrafish, Danio rerio, also have two types of GnRH (GnRH2 and GnRH3), although in contrast to humans, zebrafish appear to have four different GnRH receptors in their genome. To characterize the biological significance of multiple GnRH receptors within a single species, we cloned four GnRH receptor cDNAs from zebrafish and compared their structures, expression, and cell physiology. The zebrafish receptors are 7-transmembrane G-protein coupled receptors with amino-acid sequence identities ranging from 45 to 71% among the four receptors. High sequence similarity was observed among the seven helices of zebrafish GnRHRs compared with the human GnRHR, the green monkey type II GnRHR, and the two goldfish GnRHRs. Also, key amino acids for putative ligand binding, disulfide bond formation, N-glycosylation, and G-protein coupling were present in the extracellular and intracellular domains. The four zebrafish receptors were expressed in a variety of tissues including the brain, eye, and gonads. In an inositol phosphate assay, each receptor was functional as shown by its response to physiological doses of native GnRH peptides; two receptors showed selectivity between GnRH2 and GnRH3. Each of the four receptor genes was mapped to distinct chromosomes. Our phylogenetic and syntenic analysis segregated the four zebrafish GnRH receptors into two distinct phylogenetic groups that are separate gene lineages conserved throughout vertebrate evolution. We suggest the maintenance of four functional GnRH receptors in zebrafish compared with only one in humans may depend either on subfunctionalization or neofunctionalization in fish compared with mammalian GnRH receptors. The differences in structure, location, and response to GnRH forms strongly suggests that the four zebrafish GnRH receptors have novel functions in addition to the conventional activation of the pituitary gland in the reproductive axis. 相似文献

A set of GnRH analogues containing the nuclear localization signal (NLS) of the SV-40 virus was synthesized using solid phase
peptide synthesis and chemical ligation techniques. Selective chemical ligation was achieved through hydrazone formation upon
the interaction of NLS hydrazide and GnRH analogue modified with pyruvic acid. The efficiency of the synthesized compounds
was demonstrated in experiments on transfection of various human cancer cell lines with reporter luciferase and β-galactosidase
genes, as well as suicide thymidine kinase gene of HSV-1. Selectivity of the peptide-DNA complex effect on cancer cells is
achieved as a result of its penetration through the cell membrane via GnRH receptor-mediated endocytosis pathway. 相似文献

The first committed step in lipid A biosynthesis is catalyzed by uridine diphosphate-(3-O-(R-3-hydroxymyristoyl))-N-acetylglucosamine deacetylase (LpxC), a zinc-dependent deacetylase, and inhibitors of LpxC may be useful in the development of antibacterial agents targeting a broad spectrum of Gram-negative bacteria. Here, we report the design of amphipathic benzoic acid derivatives that bind in the hydrophobic tunnel in the active site of LpxC. The hydrophobic tunnel accounts for the specificity of LpxC toward substrates and substrate analogues bearing a 3-O-myristoyl substituent. Simple benzoic acid derivatives bearing an aliphatic 'tail' bind in the hydrophobic tunnel with micromolar affinity despite the lack of a glucosamine ring like that of the substrate. However, although these benzoic acid derivatives each contain a negatively charged carboxylate 'warhead' intended to coordinate to the active site zinc ion, the 2.25A resolution X-ray crystal structure of LpxC complexed with 3-(heptyloxy)benzoate reveals 'backward' binding in the hydrophobic tunnel, such that the benzoate moiety does not coordinate to zinc. Instead, it binds at the outer end of the hydrophobic tunnel. Interestingly, these ligands bind with affinities comparable to those measured for more complicated substrate analogue inhibitors containing glucosamine ring analogues and hydroxamate 'warheads' that coordinate to the active site zinc ion. We conclude that the intermolecular interactions in the hydrophobic tunnel dominate enzyme affinity in this series of benzoic acid derivatives. 相似文献

The viral macrophage inflammatory protein II (vMIP-II) shows a broad spectrum interaction with both CC and CXC chemokine receptors including CCR5 and CXCR4, two principal coreceptors for the cellular entry of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Recently, we have shown that a synthetic peptide derived from the N-terminus of vMIP-II, designated as V1, is a potent antagonist of CXCR4 but not CCR5 [Zhou, N., et al. (2000) Biochemistry 39, 3782-3787]. In this study, we synthesized a series of new peptides derived from other regions of vMIP-II and characterized their binding activities with both CXCR4 and CCR5. The results provided further support for the notion that the N-terminus of vMIP-II is the major determinant for CXCR4 recognition and that vMIP-II probably interacts with other chemokine receptors such as CCR5 with different sequence and conformational determinants. To understand the structure-function relationship of V1 peptide, its solution conformation was studied using circular dichroism spectroscopy, which showed a random conformation similar to that of the corresponding N-terminus in native vMIP-II. In addition, we synthesized a series of mutant analogues of V1 containing alanine, glycine, or phenylalanine substitution at various positions. Residues Val-1, Arg-7, and Lys-9 of V1 peptide were found to be critical for receptor interaction, because single alanine replacement at these positions dramatically decreased peptide binding to CXCR4. In contrast, alanine or phenylalanine substitution at Cys-11 led to significant enhancement in peptide affinity for CXCR4. Finally, we showed that V1 peptide inhibits HIV-1 replication in CXCR4(+) T-cell lines. These studies provide new insights into the structure-function relationship of V1 peptide and demonstrate that this peptide may be a lead for the development of therapeutic agents. 相似文献

Conformationally-flexible benzamide analogues as dopamine D3 and sigma 2 receptor ligands 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A series of conformationally-flexible analogues was prepared and their affinities for D2-like dopamine (D2, D3 and D4) were determined using in vitro radioligand binding assays. The results of this structure-activity relationship study identified one compound, 15, that bound with high affinity (K(i) value=2nM) and moderate selectivity (30-fold) for D3 compared to D2 receptors. In addition, this series of compounds were also tested for affinity at sigma1 and sigma2 receptors. We evaluated the affinity of these dopaminergic compounds at sigma receptors because (a) several antipsychotic drugs, which are high affinity antagonists at dopamine D2-like receptors, also bind to sigma receptors and (b) sigma receptors are expressed ubiquitously and at high levels (picomoles per mg proteins). It was observed that a number of analogues displayed high affinity and excellent selectivity for sigma2 versus sigma1 receptors. Consequently, these novel compounds may be useful for characterizing the functional role of sigma2 receptors and for imaging the sigma2 receptor status of tumors in vivo with PET. 相似文献
