D-ribo-phytosphingosines are biologically significant long-chain bases present in various sphingolipids from yeasts, fungi, plants and mammals. In this study we prepared phytopalmitoylsphingomyelin (phytoPSM) analogs based on the D-ribo-phytosphingosine base. The N-linked acyl chains were either 16:0, 2OH(R)16:0 (natural isomer), or 2OH(S)16:0. The gel-phase of phytoPSM was more stable than that of PSM (Tm 48.6 °C and 41.0 °C, respectively). The gel-liquid crystalline phase transition enthalpies were 9.1 ± 0.4 and 6.1 ± 0.3 kcal/mol for phytoPSM and PSM, respectively. An N-linked 2OH(R)16:0 in phytoPSM destabilized the gel phase relative to phytoPSM (by ~+ 6 °C, based on DPH anisotropy measurements), whereas 2OH(S)16:0 in phytoPSM stabilized it (by ~? 6 °C). All phytoPSM analogs formed sterol-enriched ordered domains in a fluid ternary bilayer, and those containing phytoPSM or 2OH(S)phytoPSM were more thermostable than the domains containing 2OH(R)phytoPSM or PSM. The affinity of cholestatrienol for POPC bilayers containing 20 mol% phytoPSM was higher than for comparable bilayers with an equal amount of PSM. The 2-hydroxylated acyl chains in phytoPSM did not markedly alter sterol affinity. We conclude that phytoPSM is a more ordered sphingolipid than PSM, and is fully capable of interacting with cholesterol. 相似文献

Cannabinoid CB1 receptors have been the avenue of extensive studies since the first clinical results of rimonabant (SR141716) for the treatment of obesity and obesity-related metabolic disorders were reported in 2001. To further evaluate the properties of CB receptors, we have designed and efficiently prepared a series of substituted pyrimidines based on chemical structure of Merck’s taranabant, a cannabinoid CB1 receptor inverse agonist. Noticeably, N4-((2S,3S)-3-(3-bromophenyl)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)butan-2-yl)-N6-butylpyrimidine-4,6-diamine (13b) demonstrated good binding affinity and decent selectivity for CB1 receptor (IC50 = 16.3 nM, CB2/CB1 = 181.6). 相似文献

N-Desmethyl-loperamide and loperamide were synthesized from α,α-diphenyl-γ-butyrolactone and 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine in five and four steps with 8% and 16% overall yield, respectively. The amide precursor was synthesized from 4-bromo-2,2-diphenylbutyronitrile and 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine in 2 steps with 21–57% overall yield. [11C]N-Desmethyl-loperamide and [11C]loperamide were prepared from their corresponding amide precursor and N-desmethyl-loperamide with [11C]CH3OTf through N-[11C]methylation and isolated by HPLC combined with solid-phase extraction (SPE) in 20–30% and 10–15% radiochemical yields, respectively, based on [11C]CO2 and decay corrected to end of bombardment (EOB), with 370–740 GBq/μmol specific activity at EOB. 相似文献

Cell growth and lipid production of a marine microalga Nannochloropsis oceanica DUT01 were investigated, and fresh medium replacement with different ratios to promote long term cell growth and lipid accumulation was also tested. The highest lipid content reached 64% in nitrogen deplete f/2 medium containing 37.5 mg/L NaNO3 combined with 1/5 fresh medium replacement, however, the highest lipid titer (0.6 g/L) and lipid productivity (31 mg/L/d) were achieved using BG11 medium containing 1.5 g/L NaNO3, taking advantage of 1/5 fresh medium replacement as well, which corresponded to the maximum biomass production of 1.4 g/L, highlighting the importance of high biomass accumulation for efficient lipid production. When biomass compositions were monitored throughout the culture, decreased protein content was found to be coupled with increased lipid production, whereas relatively stable carbohydrate content was observed. The fatty acids in the lipid of N. oceanica DUT01 comprise over 65% saturated fatty acids and monounsaturated acids (i.e. palmitic acid (C16:0) and oleic acid (C18:1)), suggesting that N. oceanica DUT01 is a promising candidate for biodiesel production. Interestingly, very high content of hexadecadienoic acid (C16:2, about 26–33%) was produced by DUT01, which distinguished this microalga with other microalgae strains reported so far. 相似文献

A small library of N-benzyl indolequinuclidinone (IQD) analogs has been identified as a novel class of cannabinoid ligands. The affinity and selectivity of these IQDs for the two established cannabinoid receptor subtypes, CB1 and CB2, was evaluated. Compounds 8 (R = R2 = H, R1 = F) and 13 (R = COOCH3, R1 = R2 = H) exhibited high affinity for CB2 receptors with Ki values of 1.33 and 2.50 nM, respectively, and had lower affinities for the CB1 receptor (Ki values of 9.23 and 85.7 nM, respectively). Compound 13 had the highest selectivity of all the compounds examined, and represents a potent cannabinoid ligand with 34-times greater selectivity for CB2R over CB1R. These findings are significant for future drug development, given recent reports demonstrating beneficial use of cannabinoid ligands in a wide variety of human disease states including drug abuse, depression, schizophrenia, inflammation, chronic pain, obesity, osteoporosis and cancer. 相似文献

A series of discrete, mononuclear palladium(II)–methyl complexes, together with several palladium(II)–chloro analogues, of pyridine-functionalised bis-NHC ligands have been prepared via ligand transmetallation from the silver(I)-NHC complexes. The reported complexes comprise examples with both the methylene-bridged 2,6-bis[(3-R-imidazolin-2-yliden-1-yl)methyl]pyridine (RC∧N∧C; R = Mes, dipp, tBu) and planar 2,6-bis(3-R-imidazolin-2-yliden-1-yl)pyridine (RCNC; R = Mes, dipp) ligands and, when combined with the previously reported MeC∧N∧C/MeCNC examples, cover a broad spectrum of ligand substituent steric and electronic properties, including the bulky Mes and dipp groups frequently used in catalytic applications. The palladium(II) complexes have been characterised by a variety of methods, including single crystal X-ray crystallography, with the shielding of the Pd–Me groups in the proton NMR spectra of some of the N-aryl substituted examples correlated with the proximity of the aryl rings to the methyl group in the solid state structures. The [PdMe(RC∧N∧C/RCNC)]+ complexes undergo thermal degradation via reductive methyl-NHC coupling to give 2-methyl-3-R-imidazolium-1-yl species with relative stabilities in the order of [PdMe(MesC∧N∧C)]BF4 > [PdMe(MeC∧N∧C)]BF4 ≈ [PdMe(MesCNC)]BF4 > [PdMe(MeCNC)]BF4 > [PdMe(tBuC∧N∧C)]BF4 ≫ [PdMe(tBuCNC)]BF4 (not isolable). A comparison of the activity of the complexes as precatalysts in a model Heck coupling reaction shows greatest activity in those species bearing bulkier N-substituents, with complexes bearing RC∧N∧C ligands generally more efficient precatalysts than those bearing RCNC ligands. 相似文献

A series of N-substituted amide linked triazolyl β-d-glucopyranoside derivatives (4a-l) were synthesized and their in vitro inhibitory activity against yeast α-glucosidase enzyme [EC.3.2.1.20] was assessed. Compounds 4e (IC50 = 156.06 μM), 4f (IC50 = 147.94 μM), 4k (IC50 = 127.71 μM) and 4l (IC50 = 121.33 μM) were identified as the most potent inhibitors for α-glucosidase as compared to acarbose (IC50 = 130.98 μM) under the same in vitro experimental conditions. Kinetic study showed that both 4e and 4f inhibit the enzyme in a competitive manner with p-nitrophenyl α-d-glucopyranoside as substrate. Molecular docking studies of 4e, 4f, 4k and 4l were also carried out using homology model of α-glucosidase to find out the binding modes responsible for the inhibitory activity. This study revealed that the binding affinity of compounds 4e, 4f, 4k and 4l for α-glucosidase were −8.2, −8.6, −8.3 and −8.5 kcal/mol respectively, compared to that of acarbose (−8.9 kcal/mol). The results suggest that the N-substituted amide linked triazole glycoconjugates can reasonably mimic the substrates for the yeast α-glucosidase. 相似文献

In this report we directly compare the in vivo and in vitro MRI properties of gadolinium–dendrimer conjugates of derivatized acyclic diethylenetriamine-N,N′,N′,N″,N″-pentaacetic acid (1B4M-DTPA) and macrocyclic 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N′,N″,N?-tetraacetic acid (C-DOTA). The metal–ligand chelates were pre-formed in alcohol prior to conjugation to the generation 4 PAMAM dendrimer (G4D), and the dendrimer-based agents were purified by Sephadex® G-25 column. The analysis and SE-HPLC data indicated chelate to dendrimer ratios of 30:1 and 28:1, respectively. Molar relaxivity measured at pH 7.4, 22 °C, and 3T are comparable (29.5 vs 26.9 mM?1 s?1), and both conjugates are equally viable as MRI contrast agents based on the images obtained. The macrocyclic agent however exhibits a faster rate of clearance in vivo (t1/2 = 16 vs 29 min). Our conclusion is that the macrocyclic-based agent is the more suitable agent for in vivo use for these reasons combined with kinetic inertness associated with the Gd(III) DOTA complex stability properties. 相似文献

To test the hypothesis that impaired mitochondrial respiration limits cardiac performance at warm temperatures, and examine if any effect(s) are sex-related, the consequences of high temperature on cardiac mitochondrial oxidative function were examined in 10 °C acclimated, sexually immature, male and female Atlantic cod. Active (State 3) and uncoupled (States 2 and 4) respiration were measured in isolated ventricular mitochondria at 10, 16, 20, and 24 °C using saturating concentrations of malate and pyruvate, but at a submaximal (physiological) level of ADP (200 µM). In addition, citrate synthase (CS) activity was measured at these temperatures, and mitochondrial respiration and the efficiency of oxidative phosphorylation (P:O ratio) were determined at [ADP] ranging from 25–200 µM at 10 and 20 °C. Cardiac morphometrics and mitochondrial respiration at 10 °C, and the thermal sensitivity of CS activity (Q10=1.51), were all similar between the sexes. State 3 respiration at 200 µM ADP increased gradually in mitochondria from females between 10 and 24 °C (Q10=1.48), but plateaued in males above 16 °C, and this resulted in lower values in males vs. females at 20 and 24 °C. At 10 °C, State 4 was ~10% of State 3 values in both sexes [i.e. a respiratory control ratio (RCR) of ~10] and P:O ratios were approximately 1.5. Between 20 and 24 °C, State 4 increased more than State 3 (by ~70 vs. 14%, respectively), and this decreased RCR to ~7.5. The P:O ratio was not affected by temperature at 200 μM ADP. However, (1) the sensitivity of State 3 respiration to increasing [ADP] (from 25 to 200 μM) was reduced at 20 vs. 10 °C in both sexes (Km values 105±7 vs. 68±10 μM, respectively); and (2) mitochondria from females had lower P:O values at 25 vs. 100 μM ADP at 20 °C, whereas males showed a similar effect at 10 °C but a much more pronounced effect at 20 °C (P:O 1.05 at 25 μM ADP vs. 1.78 at 100 μM ADP). In summary, our results demonstrate several sex-related differences in ventricular mitochondrial function in Atlantic cod, and suggest that myocardial oxidative function and possibly phosphorylation efficiency may be limited at temperatures of 20 °C or above, particularly in males. These observations could partially explain why cardiac function in Atlantic cod plateaus just below this species׳ critical thermal maximum (~22 °C) and may contribute to yet unidentified sex differences in thermal tolerance and swimming performance. 相似文献

Recently sulfamoyl benzamides were identified as a novel series of cannabinoid receptor ligands. Replacing the sulfonamide functionality and reversing the original carboxamide bond led to the discovery of N-(3-(morpholinomethyl)-phenyl)-amides as potent and selective CB2 agonists. Selective CB2 agonist 31 (Ki = 2.7; CB1/CB2 = 190) displayed robust activity in a rodent model of postoperative pain. 相似文献

A microbial consortium attached onto a polyethylene support was used to evaluate the simultaneous oxidation of sulfide and phenol by denitrification. The phenol, sulfide and nitrate loading rates applied to an inverse fluidized bed reactor were up to 168 mg phenol–C/(l d), 37 mg S2?/(l d) and 168 mg NO3?–N/(l d), respectively. Under steady state operation the consumption efficiencies of phenol, sulfide and nitrate were 100%. The N2 yield (g N2/g NO3?–N) was 0.89. The phenol was mineralized resulting in a yield of 0.82 g bicarbonate–C/g phenol–C and sulfide was completely oxidized to sulfate with a yield of 0.99 g SO42?–S/g S2?. 16S rRNA gene-based microbial community analysis of the denitrifying biofilm showed the presence of Thauera aromatica, Thiobacillus denitrificans, Thiobacillus sajanensis and Thiobacillus sp. This is the first work reporting the simultaneous oxidation of sulfide and phenol in a denitrifying biofilm reactor. 相似文献

N-Acylethanolamines, including N-palmitoyl-ethanolamine (PEA), are hydrolyzed to the corresponding fatty acids and ethanolamine by fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). Recently, N-acylethanolamine-hydrolyzing acid amidase (NAAA) was identified as being able to specifically hydrolyze PEA. In order to find selective and effective inhibitors of this enzyme, we synthesized and screened several amides, retroamides, esters, retroesters and carbamates of palmitic acid (1–21) and esters with C15 and C17 alkyl chains (22–27). Cyclopentylhexadecanoate (13) exhibited the highest inhibitory activity on NAAA (IC50 = 10.0 μM), without inhibiting FAAH up to 50 μM. Compound 13 may become a useful template to design new NAAA inhibitors. 相似文献

Here, we report the design, synthesis and structure activity relationship of novel small molecule opioid ligands based on 5-amino substituted (tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)methyl moiety with N-phenyl-N-(piperidin-2-yl)propionamide derivatives. We synthesized various molecules including amino, amide and hydroxy substitution on the 5th position of the (tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)methyl moiety. In our further designs we replaced the (tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)methyl moiety with benzyl and phenethyl moiety. These N-phenyl-N-(piperidin-2-yl)propionamide analogues showed moderate to good binding affinities (850–4 nM) and were selective towards the μ opioid receptor over the δ opioid receptors. From the structure activity relationship studies, we found that a hydroxyl substitution at the 5th position of (tetrahydronapthalen-2yl)methyl group, ligands 19 and 20, showed excellent binding affinities 4 and 5 nM, respectively, and 1000 fold selectivity towards the μ opioid relative to the delta opioid receptor. The ligand 19 showed potent agonist activities 75 ± 21 nM, and 190 ± 42 nM in the GPI and MVD assays. Surprisingly the fluoro analogue 20 showed good agonist activities in MVD assays 170 ± 42 nM, in contrast to its binding affinity results. 相似文献

We describe the discovery of phenoxymethylbenzamide derivatives as a novel class of glycine transporter type-2 (GlyT-2) inhibitors. We found hit compound 1 (human GlyT-2, IC50 = 4040 nM) in our library and converted its 1-(1-(naphthalen-2-ylmethyl)piperidin-4-yl)pyrrolidin-3-yl group to an 1-(N,N-dimethylaminopropyl)piperidyl group and its tert-butyl group to a trifluoromethyl group to obtain N-(1-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)piperidin-4-yl)-4-((4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)methyl)benzamide (20). Compound 20 showed good inhibitory activity against human GlyT-2 (IC50 = 15.3 nM) and exhibited anti-allodynia effects in a mouse neuropathic pain model. 相似文献

The life histories and predation rates of the ladybird beetle Harmonia dimidiata (F.) were compared among beetles kept at 15, 20, and 25 °C. The beetles were fed on Aphis gossypii Glover and were maintained at 70 ± 10% RH and a 14:10 (L:D) h photoperiod. According to the age-stage, two-sex life table, the net reproductive rates (R0) were 147.4, 98.7, and 62.5 offspring for beetles kept at 15, 20, and 25 °C, respectively. Additionally, we employed both the jackknife and bootstrap techniques for estimating the means, variances, and standard errors of the population parameters. The sample means of R0 and the other population parameters obtained using the bootstrap technique fit a normal distribution, but the jackknife technique generated biologically meaningless zero values for R0. The net predation rates were 10963, 13050, and 7492 aphids for beetles kept at 15, 20, and 25 °C, respectively. For a comprehensive comparison of predation potential, we incorporated both the finite rate and the predation rate into the finite predation rate. When both the growth rate and the predation rate were considered, our results showed that H. dimidiata is a more efficient biological control agent for A. gossypii at 20 and 25 °C than at 15 °C. 相似文献

A novel series of 5-HT2A ligands that contain a (phenylpiperazinyl-propyl)arylsulfonamides skeleton was synthesized. Thirty-seven N-(cycloalkylmethyl)-4-methoxy-N-(3-(4-arylpiperazin-1-yl)propyl)-arylsulfonamide and N-(4-(4-arylpiperazin-1-yl)butan-2-yl)-arylsulfonamide compounds were obtained. The binding of these compounds to the 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, and 5-HT7 receptors was evaluated. Most of the compounds showed IC50 values of less than 100 nM and exhibited high selectivity for the 5-HT2A receptor. Among the synthesized compounds, 16a and 16d showed good affinity at 5-HT2A (IC50 = 0.7 nM and 0.5 nM) and good selectivity over 5-HT2C (50–100 times) and 5-HT7 (1500–3000 times). 相似文献

Maca (Lepidium meyenii), a traditional food crop of the Peruvian Andes is now widely touted as a dietary supplement. Among the various chemical constituents isolated from the plant are a unique series of non-polar, long-chain fatty acid N-benzylamides known as macamides. We have synthesized 11 of the 19 reported macamides and have tested each as potential inhibitors of the human enzyme, fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH). The five most potent macamides were FAAH inhibitors (IC50 = 10–17 μM). These amides were derivatives of oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids and benzylamine or 3-methoxybenzylamine. Of the three compounds evaluated in a pre-incubation time study, two macamides were not irreversible inhibitors of FAAH. The third, a carbamate structurally related to macamides, was shown to be an irreversible inhibitor of FAAH (IC50 = 0.153 μM). 相似文献

A taxonomic study of 24 Gram-stain-negative rod-shaped bacteria originating from the Antarctic environment is described. Phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequencing differentiated isolated strains into two groups belonging to the genus Flavobacterium. Group I (n = 20) was closest to Flavobacterium aquidurense WB 1.1-56T (98.3% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) while group II (n = 4) showed Flavobacterium hydatis DSM 2063T as its nearest neighbour (98.5–98.9% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity). Despite high 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, these two groups represented two distinct novel species as shown by phenotypic traits and low genomic relatedness assessed by rep-PCR fingerprinting, DNA-DNA hybridization and whole-genome sequencing. Common to representative strains of both groups were the presence of major menaquinone MK-6 and sym-homospermidine as the major polyamine. Common major fatty acids were C15:0 iso, C15:1 iso G, C15:0 iso 3-OH, C17:0 iso 3OH and Summed Feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c/C16:1 ω6c). Strain CCM 8828T (group I) contained phosphatidylethanolamine, three unidentified lipids lacking a functional group, three unidentified aminolipids and single unidentified glycolipid in the polar lipid profile. Strain CCM 8825T (group II) contained phosphatidylethanolamine, eight unidentified lipids lacking a functional group, three unidentified aminolipids and two unidentified glycolipids in the polar lipid profile. These characteristics corresponded to characteristics of the genus Flavobacterium. The obtained results showed that the analysed strains represent novel species of the genus Flavobacterium, for which the names Flavobacterium circumlabens sp. nov. (type strain CCM 8828T = P5626T = LMG 30617T) and Flavobacterium cupreum sp. nov. (type strain CCM 8825T = P2683T = LMG 30614T) are proposed. 相似文献
