Glycation of biomolecules, such as proteins, peptide hormones, nucleic acids, and lipids, may be a major contributor to the pathological manifestations of aging and diabetes mellitus. These nonenzymatic reactions, also termed the Maillard reaction, alter the biological and chemical properties of biomolecules. In order to investigate the effect of various reducing sugars on the products formed from small bioactive peptides (Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu, Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu-NH2, Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu-OMe, Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe, and Tyr-Gly-Gly), model systems were prepared with glucose, mannose or galactose. Peptide-sugar mixtures were incubated at 37 or 50 degrees C in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.4, or in methanol. The extent of glycation was determined periodically by RP HPLC. All sugar-peptide mixtures generated two different types of glycation products: N-(1-deoxy-ketos-1-yl)-peptide (Amadori compound) and the imidazolidinone compound substituted by sugar pentitol and peptide residue. The amount and distribution of peptide glycation products depended on the structure of the reactants, and increased in both concentration- and time-dependent manner in relation to exposure to sugar. Additionally, the rate of hydrolysis of glucose-derived imidazolidinone compounds, obtained either from leucine-enkephalin (1) or its shorter N-terminal fragments 2 and 3, was determined by incubation at 37 degrees C in human serum. These results revealed that imidazolidinones obtained from glucose and small peptides are almost completely protected from the action of enzymes in serum, the predominant route of degradation being spontaneous hydrolysis to initial sugar and peptide compound.  相似文献

Comparative studies based on x-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy were used for structural characterization of the novel minor, imidazolidinone moiety containing, product 2b of the Maillard reaction obtained in vitro by using the galactose-modified endogenous opioid pentapeptide leucine-enkephalin (Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu) 1. The x-ray analysis uniquely defined the molecular structure as cyclo-(N-(12-[-4)-D-galacto-pentitol-1-yl]-4-(4-hydroxybenzyl)-5-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl-(1 --> O]acetyl]glycyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-leucyl-] (3), having an 18-membered ring with an ester bond between the secondary (C4') hydroxyl group of a D-galacto-pentitolyl residue and the C-terminal carboxy group of leucine-enkephalin. The absolute configuration of the new chiral centre at the imidazolidinone moiety was established as C2(S), indicating a cis arrangement of C2 and C4 substituents at the 5-membered heterocyclic ring. The NMR analysis of compound 2b carried out in CH3CN-d3 and DMSO-d6, indicated the existence of two isomers in solution, differing only in the position of the ester group in the molecule. NMR data for the minor isomer (13%-16%) are in agreement with structure 3. The migratory tendency of the peptidyl group from the primary (2b) to the secondary hydroxyl group (3) of a D-galacto-pentitolyl residue in methanol/water solution was confirmed by RP HPLC analysis.  相似文献

Reactions between biological amines and reducing sugars (the Maillard reaction) are among the most important of the chemical and oxidative changes occurring in biological systems that contribute to the formation of a complex family of rearranged and dehydrated covalent adducts that have been implicated in the pathogenesis of human diseases. In this study, chemistry of the Maillard reactions was studied in four model systems containing fructosamines (Amadori compounds) obtained from the endogenous opioid pentapeptide leucine-enkephalin (Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu), leucine-enkephalin methyl ester, structurally related tripeptide (Tyr-Gly-Gly), or from amino acid (Tyr). The degradation of model compounds as well as their ability to develop Maillard fluorescence was investigated under oxidative conditions in methanol and phosphate buffer pH 7.4 at two different temperatures (37 and 70 degrees C). At 37 degrees C, glycated leucine-enkephalin degraded slowly in methanol (t(1/2) approximately 13 days) and phosphate buffer (t(1/2) approximately 9 days), producing a parent peptide compound as a major product throughout a three-week incubation period. Whereas fluorescence slowly increased over time at 37 degrees C, incubations off all studied Amadori compounds at 70 degrees C resulted in a rapid appearance of a brown color and sharp increase in AGE (advanced glycation end products)-associated fluorescence (excitation 320 nm/emmision 420 nm) as well as in distinctly higher amounts of fragmentation products. The obtained data indicated that the shorter the peptide chain the more degradation products were formed. These studies have also helped to identify a new chemical transformation of the peptide backbone in the Maillard reaction that lead to beta-scission of N-terminal tyrosine side chain and p-hydroxybenzaldehyde formation under both aqueous and nonaqueous conditions.  相似文献

The formation mechanism of Maillard peptides was explored in Maillard reaction through diglycine/glutathione(GSH)/(Cys‐Glu‐Lys‐His‐Ile‐Met)–xlyose systems by heating at 120 °C for 30–120 min. Maximum fluorescence intensity of Maillard reaction products (MRPs) with an emission wavelength of 420~430 nm in all systems was observed, and the intensity values were proportional to the heating time. Taken diglycine/GSH–[13C5]xylose systems as a control, it was proposed that the compounds with high m/z values of 379 and 616 have the high molecular weight (HMW) products formed by cross‐linking of peptides and sugar. In (Cys‐Glu‐Lys‐His‐Ile‐Met)–xylose system, the m/z value of HMW MRPs was not observed, which might be due to the weak signals of these products. According to the results of gel permeation chromatography, HMW MRPs were formed by Maillard reaction, especially in (Cys‐Glu‐Lys‐His‐Ile‐Met)–xylose system, the percentage of Maillard peptides reached 52.90%. It was concluded that Maillard peptides can be prepared through the cross‐linking of sugar and small peptides with a certain MW range.

The increasing prevalence of sepsis from Gram-positive bacterial pathogens necessitates further evaluation of the basic assumptions about the molecular pathogenesis of septic shock. Since diverse physiological functions of Gram-positive bacteria are controlled by the degree of esterification of teichoic acids with D-alanine, we examined the reactivity of monosaccharide esters in which anomerically free or protected D-glucose is linked through its C-6 hydroxy group to either phenylalanyl or tyrosyl residues as models for teichoic acid fragment. We show that the attached sugar moiety induces activation of the amino acid residue. Due to the enhanced reactivity of the NH2 group in the monosaccharide esters studied, the formation of products generated by intramolecular and intermolecular glycation reactions is accelerated resulting in heterogeneous mixture of compounds. These findings suggest that, if similar adducts are formed by glycation of D-alanine in teichoic acid of Gram-positive bacteria, they should be examined as potential bioactive ligands or chemical message for infection.  相似文献

Pyridyl imidazolidinone is a novel class of capsid binder which can inhibit enterovirus 71 (EV71). In this study, we tested the susceptibility of six recombinant viruses with different single-site mutations in VP1. Eleven modified pyridyl imidazolidinones were synthesized and used to probe the interaction between these compounds and the EV71 VP1 protein. We found that the D31N or E98K mutant viruses were susceptible to bulkier compounds, which suggested that mutations at these two sites in VP1 may widen the hydrophobic pocket of VP1, allowing bulkier compounds to enter and interfere VP1-receptor binding. Additionally, the Y116H mutant was more resistant to pyridyl imidazolidinone compounds containing a methyl group in the central position of the hydrophobic linker. When a trifluoromethyl group was substituted for the methyl group in the middle of the linker chain, the inhibitory effect was totally abolished in the Y116H mutant, suggesting that the interaction between Tyr (Y) 116 of VP1 and the central position of the linker chain of pyridyl imidazolodinone is very important for drug efficacy. A V192M mutant was resistant to most of the derivatives, indicating that residue 192 is a key mutation for resistance to pyridyl imidazolidinone.  相似文献

Ribose 5-phosphate (R5P) undergoes the Maillard reaction with amines at significantly higher rates than most other sugars and sugar phosphates. The presence of an intramolecular phosphate group, which catalyzes the early stages of the Maillard reaction, provides the opportunity for the R5P molecule to undergo novel reaction paths creating unique Maillard products. The initial set of reactions leading to an Amadori product (phosphorylated) and to an alpha-dicarbonyl phosphate compound follows a typical Maillard reaction sequence, but an observed phosphate hydrolysis accompanying the reaction adds to the complexity of the products formed. The reaction rate for the loss of R5P is partially dependent on the pK(a) of the amine but also is correlated to the protonation of an early intermediate of the reaction sequence. In the presence of oxygen, a carboxymethyl group conjugated to the amine is a major product of the reaction of R5P with N-acetyllysine while little of this product is generated in the absence of oxygen. Despite lacking a critical hydroxyl group necessary for the Maillard reaction, 2-deoxyribose 5-phosphate (dR5P) still generates an Amadori-like product (with a carbonyl on the C-3 carbon) and undergoes phosphate cleavage. Two highly UV-absorbing products of dR5P were amine derivatives of 5-methylene-2-pyrrolone and 2-formylpyrrole. The reaction of dR5P with certain amines generates a set of products that exhibit an interesting absorbance at 340nm and a high fluorescence.  相似文献

The formation of glycation products in model systems consisting of fructose and the endogenous opioid peptides not containing lysine residue, such as Leu-enkephalin (Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu) and Met-enkephalin (Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Met), or of their fragments, Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe and Tyr-Gly-Gly, was examined. N-(2-Deoxy-aldos-2-yl)-peptides (Heyns compounds) as well as diastereoisomeric imidazolidinone compounds were identified as reaction products of N-terminal amino group glycation for each of the peptides studied. The structure of the glycation products and relative configuration of C-2 substituents on the imidazolidinone ring in diastereoisomers were determined by NMR experiments. The chemical and enzymatic stability of the fructose-derived glycated products of Leu- and Met-enkephalin was studied in phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4) and in human serum at 37 degrees C. The obtained results revealed that glycation increases the stability of the parent peptide to enzymatic degradation. As a result of different configuration at the newly formed stereogenic center, large stability differences in the 2S* and 2R* isomers of the imidazolidinone compounds were observed.  相似文献

Three hybridoma antibodies (L101, L104, and L117) specific for lactose-protein amino carbonyl products (Maillard adducts) were obtained by immunizing mice with the lactose-ovalbumin Maillard adduct and by screening with the lactose-bovine serum albumin (BSA) adduct. They reacted with the Maillard adducts of lactose with several different proteins, but not with the adducts of several other reducing sugars. L101 reacted well with the lactose-BSA adducts formed by 2- to 16-day incubation, whereas L104 and L117 reacted with the advanced stage reaction products but not with the adducts of 2-day incubation. The competitive inhibition of the antibody binding by several mono- and disaccharides showed that lactulose (4-O-beta-D-galactopylanosyl-D-fructose) was the best inhibitor for all three antibodies, and that L104 and L117 were inhibited by methyl-beta-D-galactoside more effectively than L101. These results suggested that different components produced during the progress of the Maillard reaction could be antigenic determinants, and that the carbohydrate moiety including the terminal galactosyl residue played an important role in the antibody binding to the lactose-protein Maillard adducts.  相似文献

The Maillard reaction and oxidative stress during aging of soybean seeds   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
The chemical reactions that may lead to the loss of seed viability were investigated both during the accelerated aging and natural aging of soybeans ( Glycine max Merrill cv. Chippewa 64). Under conditions of accelerated aging (36°C and 75% RH), fluorescence of soluble proteins accumulated, which was closely correlated with the loss of seed germinability and vigor. We were able to show this correlation by using partially purified proteins for the assay. Fluorescence also increased in seeds under good storage conditions (5°C for up to 21 years), although there was a less significant correlation between seed viability and the accumulation of fluorescent products during the time of natural aging. The rise in protein fluorescence is interpreted as an increase of Maillard products. The carbonyl content of soluble proteins (a measure of the oxidative damage) did not change significantly during either accelerated aging or natural aging: however the elimination of carbonyls during germination seemed to be hindered in seeds that had poor germination. The Maillard reaction may be a consequence of the formation of reducing sugars through a gradual hydrolysis of oligosaccharides during aging. Preliminary evidence from the natural aging study showed that, when seeds were in the glassy state, the sugar hydrolysis was inhibited. These results suggest that the Maillard reaction and oxidative reaction may play an important role in seed deterioration.  相似文献

The formation of glycosylation products in model systems consisting of d-glucuronic acid (GlcA) and lysine-containing peptides, such as Lys-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu (1), Gly-Lys-Gly-Phe-Leu (4) and Ac-Gly-Lys-Gly-Phe-Leu (6), was examined to evaluate the site specificity as well as the extent and nature of the modification. Peptides were reacted with GlcA either in solution or under dry-heating conditions. From the incubations performed in solution (MeOH), the corresponding (1-deoxy-d-fructofuranos-1-yluronic acid)-peptide derivatives (Amadori compounds) were isolated. Whereas reaction of 1 resulted in the formation of mono-glycosylated Amadori compound 2 with the sugar moiety attached to the Nε-amino group of the Lys residue and its di-glycosylated analogue 3, exposure of 4 to GlcA afforded only di-glycosylated peptide 5. From the incubation of GlcA with Ac-Gly-Lys-Gly-Phe-Leu (6) performed under mild dry-heating conditions (50 °C) in an environment of 75% relative humidity, besides Amadori compound 7, two new Maillard reaction products were isolated that contained 3-hydroxypyridinium (8) and 3-hydroxy-picolinic acid moiety (9). The mechanism for the formation of pyridinium products is discussed.  相似文献

The extra-weak chemiluminescence in the Maillard reaction caused by the reaction between L -lysine and D -arabinose was measured, and a linear relationship was found between the chemiluminescence and the amount of L -lysine added. After a 1-hour reaction equimolar amounts of D -arabinose and L -lysine were consumed regardless of the initial concentration of D -arabinose. The chemiluminescence of the Maillard reaction originates from Maillard reaction products formed by the equimolar reaction between sugar and amino acid and depends on the concentration of amino acid.  相似文献

Glucosamine (GlcN) is an amino sugar sold over-the-counter and is widely used as a dietary supplement to relieve symptoms of osteoarthritis. It is not known whether it is the GlcN alone or one of its many possible nonenzymatic glycation products that is responsible for this effect. The current study demonstrates that reducing sugars form advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) with GlcN and, as a result, decrease GlcN autocondensation by reducing the availability of the GlcN amino group. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) was used to analyze the in vitro Maillard reaction of GlcN with glyceraldehyde (GA), glucose (Glc), and fructose (Fru) as well as their inhibition of GlcN autocondensation under physiological conditions. Formation of AGEs was monitored by UV and fluorescence spectroscopy. Major components were separated by CE using a bare capillary and UV detection at 214 nm. AGE species were separated by HPLC and were complementary to the CE results. The effects of sugar concentration and incubation time on the AGE profile are also reported for each of the GlcN reducing sugar model systems. A simple and rapid CE method was developed to analyze the AGE formation in this initial report of the reaction of reducing sugars with the amino group of GlcN.  相似文献

Trehalose dimycolates and monomycolates isolated from a variety of Mycobacteria species as well as synthetic trehalose mycolates and trehalose behenylbehenate produced granulomatous responses in the lungs of mice. Trehalose alone or mycolic acids or their methyl esters, however, did not. These data suggest that the sugar moiety of these defined fatty acid esters is required for the production of this cellular inflammatory reaction. When mice were challenged with virulent Mycobactorium tuberculosis they showed increased resistance against infection during the time when the granulomatous response was greatest.  相似文献

Abstract

The reaction of 5-iodouridine with esters of acrylic acid in the palladium-catalysed Heck reaction was used to generate a series of esters of the acid (E) -5- (2-carboxyvinyl)uridine in poor to moderate yield. An alternative method starts from the acid by protection of the sugar moiety followed by in situ generation of the acid chloride then ester formation followed by simultaneous sugar deprotection. Treatment of the methyl ester with ammonia and methylamine gave the corresponding amides, while treatment with dimethylamine gave 5-(1-dimethylamino-2-carboxy)ethyluridine as the major product.  相似文献

6-O-(L-Tyrosylglycyl)- and 6-O-(L-tyrosylglycylglycyl)-D-glucopyranose were synthesized by condensation of the pentachlorophenyl esters of the respective di- and tripeptide with fully unprotected D-glucose. The intramolecular reactivity of the sugar conjugates was studied in pyridine-acetic acid and in dry methanol, at various temperatures and for various incubation times. The composition of the incubation mixtures was monitored by a reversed-phase HPLC method that permits simultaneous analysis of the disappearance of the starting material and the appearance of rearrangement and degradation products. To determine the influence of esterification of the peptide carboxy group on its amino group reactivity, parallel experiments were done in which free peptides were, under identical reaction conditions, incubated with D-glucose (molar ratios 1:1 and 1:5). Depending on the starting compound, different types of Amadori products (cyclic and bicyclic form), methyl ester of peptides, and Tyr-Gly-diketopiperazine were obtained.  相似文献

A series of novel, oxime ether-containing pyridyl imidazolidinones were synthesized and their antiviral activity was evaluated in a plaque reduction assay. It is very interesting that this class of compounds is specific for human enteroviruses, in particular, enterovirus 71 (EV71). Some derivatives strongly inhibited enterovirus replication with activities higher or comparable to those of the reference compounds such as A1 and A2. Preliminary SAR studies revealed that the chain length of the alkyl linker and the alkyl substituent at the oxime ether group largely influenced the in vitro anti-EV71 activity of this new class of potent antiviral agents. Among this series of compounds synthesized, the pyridyl imidazolidinone with an ethyl oxime ether group located at the para position of the phenoxyl ring (8b) was identified as the most potent enterovirus 71 inhibitor (IC50=0.001 microM) with no apparent cytotoxic effect toward RD (rhabdomyosarcoma) cell lines (CC50>25 microM). Furthermore, this compound has been shown broad-spectrum activity against most of the serotypes of enteroviruses tested in the nanomolar range.  相似文献

By condensing 3 alpha,21-dihydroxy-5 beta-pregnan-20-one, or its appropriate monoacetate, with methyl 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-1-bromo-1-deoxy-alpha-D-glucuronate in the Koenigs-Knorr reaction beta-D-glucosiduronates 10, 4, and 7 were obtained as polyacetate methyl esters. Alkaline hydrolysis of these substances cleaved the ester groups and gave the corresponding steroidal glucosiduronic acids 12, 6 and 8. Upon treatment with diazomethane, these acids produced the equivalent methyl esters. The C-3, the C-21 and the C-3,21 glucosiduronates of 3 alpha,21-dihydroxy-5 beta-pregnan-11,20-dione were prepared by previously reported methods and converted into the corresponding C-20 semicarbazones (14, 20 and 26). With C-20 stabilized by the semicarbazone group against reduction, it was possible to reduce the 11-oxo function in these substances to an 11 beta-hydroxyl group; after removal of the semi-carbazone moiety from these products at pH 2.0, glucosiduronic acids 18, 22 and 28 were obtained. The mass spectra of a representative group of the mono- and diglucosiduronic acids and esters were determined by utilizing fast atom bombardment and monitoring ions in both positive and negative modes of operation.  相似文献

Cellulose esters containing adipates and other ester groups are synthesized by the reaction of commercially available cellulose esters in solution with the benzyl monoester of adipoyl chloride. The products, cellulose adipate esters in which the distal end of the adipate moiety is a benzyl ester, were easily converted to cellulose adipate derivatives by Pd-catalyzed hydrogenation. These cellulose adipate derivatives are promising biopolymers for drug delivery and other applications in which water-dispersion or swelling are desired.  相似文献

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) contribute to various pathologies associated with the general aging process and long-term complications of diabetes. Involvement of alpha-dicarbonyl intermediates in the formation of such compounds is firmly established. We now report on the first unequivocal identification of the dideoxyosone N(6)-(2,3-dihydroxy-5,6-dioxohexyl)-l-lysinate (4) on lysozyme via its quinoxaline derivative N(6)-(2,3-dihydroxy-4-quinoxalin-2-ylbutyl)-l-lysinate (6), formed by reaction of 4 with o-phenylenediamine (OPD). For accurate quantification of the total content of 6 as well as of glucosepane 5 by LC-(ESI)MS, (13)C(6)-labeled reference compounds were independently synthesized; 5 so far is the only established follow-up product of 4. With an overall lysine derivatization quota of 5%, compound 4 is shown to be a quantitatively important Maillard intermediate of which only about 8 per thousand are transformed into the cross-link 5. Hence, the major follow-up products of the highly reactive intermediate 4 are yet unknown. The site-specific quantitative evaluation of aminoketose 1 and quinoxaline 6 by LC-(ESI)MS peptide mapping shows that all lysine moieties in lysozyme are in fact modified by these compounds. If an arginine side chain is adjacent to the lysine moiety, transformation of 1 into 4 seems to be favored. The efficient formation and high reactivity of 4 clearly points to its potential as exogenous or endogenous glycotoxin.  相似文献
