2-Alkylamino-6-[1-(2,6-difluorophenyl)alkyl]-3,4-dihydro-5-alkylpyrimidin-4(3H)-ones (F(2)-NH-DABOs) 4, 5 belonging to the dihydro-alkoxy-benzyl-oxopyrimidine (DABO) family and bearing different alkyl- and arylamino side chains at the C(2)-position of the pyrimidine ring were designed as active against wild type (wt) human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and some relevant HIV-1 mutants. Biological evaluation indicated the importance of the further anchor point of compounds 4, 5 into the non-nucleoside binding site (NNBS): newly synthesized compounds were highly active against both wild type and the Y181C HIV-1 strains. In anti-wt HIV-1 assay the potency of amino derivatives did not depend on the size or shape of the C(2)-amino side chain, but it associated with the presence of one or two methyl groups (one at the pyrimidine C(5)-position and the other at the benzylic carbon), being thymine, alpha-methyluracil or alpha-methylthymine derivatives almost equally active in reducing wt HIV-1-induced cytopathogenicity in MT-4 cells. Against the Y181C mutant strain, 2,6-difluorobenzyl-alpha-methylthymine derivatives 4d, 5h'-n' showed the highest potency and selectivity among tested compounds, both a properly sized C(2)-NH side chain and the presence of two methyl groups (at C(5) and benzylic positions) being crucial for high antiviral action. 相似文献

We have replaced the pyridyl ring of trovirdine with an alicyclic cyclohexenyl, adamantyl or cis-myrtanyl ring. Only the cyclohexenyl-containing thiourea compound N-[2-(1-cyclohexenyl)ethyl]-N'-[2-(5-bromopyridyl)]- thiourea (HI-346) (as well as its chlorine-substituted derivative N-[2-(1-cyclohexenyl)ethyl]-N'-[2-(5-chloropyridyl)]- thiourea/HI-445) showed RT inhibitory activity. HI-346 and HI-445 effectively inhibited recombinant RT with better IC50 values than other anti-HIV agents tested. The ranking order of efficacy in cell-free RT inhibition assays was: HI-346 (IC50 = 0.4 microM) > HI-445 (IC50 = 0.5 microM) > trovirdine (IC50 = 0.8 microM) > MKC-442 (IC5 = 0.8 microM) = delavirdine (IC50 = 1.5 microM) > nevirapine (IC50 = 23 microM). In accord with this data, both compounds inhibited the replication of the drug-sensitive HIV-1 strain HTLV(IIIB) with better IC50 values than other anti-HIV agents tested. The ranking order of efficacy in cellular HIV-1 inhibition assays was: HI-445 = HI-346 (IC50 = 3 nM) > MKC-442 (IC50 = 4 nM) = AZT (IC50 = 4 nM) > trovirdine (IC50 = 7 nM) > delavirdine (IC50 = 9 nM) > nevirapine (IC50 = 34 nM). Surprisingly, the lead compounds HI-346 and HI-445 were 3-times more effective against the multidrug resistant HIV-1 strain RT-MDR with a V106A mutation (as well as additional mutations involving the RT residues 74V,41L, and 215Y) than they were against HTLV(IIIB) with wild-type RT. HI-346 and HI-445 were 20-times more potent than trovirdine, 200-times more potent than AZT, 300-times more potent than MKC-442, 400-times more potent than delavirdine, and 5000-times more potent than nevirapine against the multidrug resistant HIV-1 strain RT-MDR. HI-445 was also tested against the RT Y181C mutant A17 strain of HIV-1 and found to be >7-fold more effective than trovirdine and >1,400-fold more effective than nevirapine or delavirdine. Similarly, both HI-346 and HI-445 were more effective than trovirdine, nevirapine, and delavirdine against the problematic NNI-resistant HIV-1 strain A17-variant with both Y181C and K103N mutations in RT, although their activity was markedly reduced against this strain. Neither compound exhibited significant cytotoxicity at effective concentrations (CC50 >100 microM). These findings establish the lead compounds HI-346 and HI-445 as potent inhibitors of drug-sensitive as well as multidrug-resistant stains of HIV-1. 相似文献

Previous studies have established that G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are composed of independent folding domains. Based on this findings we attempted to rescue the function of clinically relevant missense mutations (R137H, S167L, and R181C) within the N-terminal domain of the V2 vasopressin receptor (V2-R), by coexpressing mutated full-length (Y280C) and C-terminally truncated (E242X) receptor constructs in COS-7 cells. Coimmunoprecipitation and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay studies demonstrated a specific association of E242X with full-length V2-Rs even in the presence of missense mutations. Systematic analysis of the structural requirements for the observed receptor/fragment association showed that N-terminal fragments containing at least transmembrane regions 1-3 interact with the full-length V2-R. Despite this specific interaction, no functional reconstitution was achieved for mutant V2-Rs following coexpression with E242X and Y280C. However, functional activity of R137H and R181C upon coexpression with E242X was regained by mutational disruption of the extracellular disulfide bond, which is highly conserved among GPCRs. Our data with the V2-R are consistent with a structural model in which class I GPCRs form contact oligomers by lateral interaction rather than by a domain-swapping mechanism. 相似文献

A series of 26 diarylpyrimidines, characterized by the hydroxymethyl linker between the left wing benzene ring and the central pyrimidine, were synthesized and evaluated for in vitro anti-HIV activity. Most of the compounds exhibited moderate to excellent activities against wild-type HIV-1. Among them, compound 10i, bearing a chlorine atom at the C-2 position of left benzene ring, was the best congener and showed potent activity against wild-type HIV-1 with an EC(50) value of 0.009 μM, along with moderate activities against the double RT mutant (K103N+Y181C) HIV-1(III(B)) and HIV-2(ROD) with an EC(50) value of 6.2 and 6.0 μM, respectively. The preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) of this new series of compounds was also investigated. 相似文献

Beta-glucosidase was partially purified from Rosa 'Hoh-Jun' petals. The enzyme was highly specific for such beta-D-glucopyranosides as 2-phenylethyl beta-D-glucopyranoside. The optimal activity was observed at pH 6.0 and 35 degrees C. The enzymes were composed with two proteins (160 and 155 kDa) by blue native-PAGE, and were classified in a family 1 glucosidase based on LC-MS/MS analyses. 相似文献

Extracellular adenosine diphosphate (ADP) mediates a wide range of physiological effects as an extracellular signaling molecule, including platelet aggregation, vascular tone, cell proliferation, and apoptosis by interacting with plasma membrane P2 receptors. However, the effect of ADP on cell proliferation was contradictory. In this study, we found that ADP significantly inhibited cell proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells at high concentrations (50 to 100 µM). Treatment with ADP did not induce cell apoptosis but instead induced cell cycle arrest in the S phase, which may be partly due to the downregulation of cyclin B1. The inhibition of cell proliferation was blocked by suramin, a nonspecific antagonist of the P2 receptors, and high concentrations of ADP significantly upregulated the messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein expression of P2Y11 in endothelial cells. Moreover, the downregulation of P2Y11 by RNA interference reversed the inhibition of cell proliferation. In addition, ADP (100 µM) can induce the formation of cytosolic autophagy in endothelial cells and a rapid phosphorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2, which is a canonical signal molecule downstream of P2Y receptors, accompanied by a mRNA expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as intercellular adhesion molecule 1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1. Taken together, our study excludes a mechanism for extracellular ADP impairing endothelial cells proliferation via P2Y11 receptor by downregulating cyclin B1 and arresting cell cycle at the S phase, besides, ADP induces cell autophagy and mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines, whether it is mediated by Erk signaling pathways needs further studies to confirm. 相似文献

The ribose moiety of adenine nucleotide 3',5'-bisphosphate antagonists of the P2Y(1) receptor has been successfully substituted with a rigid methanocarba ring system, leading to the conclusion that the North (N) ring conformation is preferred in receptor binding. Similarly, at P2Y(2) and P2Y(4) receptors, nucleotides constrained in the (N) conformation interact equipotently with the corresponding ribosides. We now have synthesized and examined as P2Y receptor ligands nucleotide analogues substituted with two novel ring systems: (1) a (N) locked-carbocyclic (cLNA) derivative containing the oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ring system and (2) l-alpha-threofuranosyl derivatives. We have also compared potencies and preferred conformations of these nucleotides with the known anhydrohexitol-containing P2Y(1) receptor antagonist MRS2283. A cLNA bisphosphate derivative MRS2584 21 displayed a K(i) value of 22.5 nM in binding to the human P2Y(1) receptor, and antagonized the stimulation of PLC by the potent P2Y(1) receptor agonist 2-methylthio-ADP (30 nM) with an IC(50) of 650 nM. The parent cLNA nucleoside bound only weakly to an adenosine receptor (A(3)). Thus, this ring system afforded some P2Y receptor selectivity. A l-alpha-threofuranosyl bisphosphate derivative 9 displayed an IC(50) of 15.3 microM for inhibition of 2-methylthio-ADP-stimulated PLC activity. l-alpha-Threofuranosyl-UTP 13 was a P2Y receptor agonist with a preference for P2Y(2) (EC(50)=9.9 microM) versus P2Y(4) receptors. The P2Y(1) receptor binding modes, including rotational angles, were estimated using molecular modeling and receptor docking. 相似文献

In this study, the antifungal effects of six different isothiocyanate (ITCs) compounds (methyl, allyl, butyl, ethyl, benzyl and 2-phenylethyl ITCs) were investigated to be use against the citrus sour rot disease caused by Geotrichum citri-aurantii in vitro and semi-commercial (in vivo) conditions. Antifungal activities of the vapour phases of different ITC compounds were examined on the arthroconidia germination and mycelial growth of G. citri-aurantii. Mycelial growth of G. citri-aurantii was inhibited in a concentration-dependent way. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of benzyl, methyl, allyl and ethyl ITCs on mycelial growth were 0.06, 0.08, 0.10 and 0.10 µl/L, respectively. Arthroconidia germination of G. citri-aurantii was completely inhibited by benzyl, methyl, allyl and ethyl ITCs at concentrations of 0.05, 0.07, 0.07 and 0.07 µl/L, respectively. Light microscopy observations revealed that the ITC compounds, at completely inhibiting concentrations, caused considerable morphological changes in the fungal hyphae. Under in vivo conditions, the average rotting area caused by G. citri-arantii was inhibited 100% by ethyl, methyl and allyl ITC compounds at concentrations of 8.0, 12.0 and 12.0 µl/L, respectively. Results suggest that ITC’s may be useful and effective natural antifungal compounds to control the citrus sour rot disease agent. 相似文献

Summary Cells of thalli at different developmental stages of the epiphytic marine red algaErythrocladia subintegra have been studied by freeze-etching. It was found that the plasma membrane exhibits linear microfibril-termnal synthesizing complexes (TCs), randomly distributed consisting of four rows of linearly-arranged particles (average diameter of particles 8.6 nm); each row of TCs consists of 5–33 particles (average 15). The TCs were observed on both fracture faces (PF and EF) but more clearly on the PF face. These structures appear to span both the outer and inner leaflets of the plasma membrane (transmembrane complexes)-The TCs have stable width (35 nm) and vary in length (41–311 nm, average 181 nm). The TCs subunits are highly ordered arrays forming a semicylinder. The average density of TCs on the PF face is 5.5TC/m2. The microfibrils are randomly distributed and have a mean width of 39.4 nm (ranging from 16 to 70 nm). Many TCs are associated with the ends of microfibrils and microfibril imprints. The structural characteristics of linear TCs in the red algaErythrocladia are compared with those of the so far investigated Chlorophyta spp. All results favour the suggestion that TCs in the plasma membrane ofErythrocladia cells are involved in the biosynthesis, assembly and orientation of microfibrils. 相似文献

Telocytes (TCs) are a new type of interstitial cells, a small cellular body with the presence of 2–5 prolongations named as telopode (Tp)‐very thin (less than 0.2 µm) and extremely long (10–1,000 µm), a moniliform aspect, and caveolae, containing a nucleus surrounded by a small amount of cytoplasm. The nucleus occupies about 25% of TC body volume and contains clusters of heterochromatin attached to the nuclear envelope. The perinuclear cytoplasm is rich in mitochondria and contains a small Golgi complex, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum and cytoskeletal elements. TCs have several immunophenotypes such as CD34, c‐kit, and vimentin. TCs were found in many organs of mammals with potential biological functions, even though the exact function remains unclear. Recently, we identified and isolated TCs from the trachea for the first time and confirmed the existence of TC in lung tissues, which could have the potential significance in the pathogenesis of pulmonary diseases. Future efforts are required to clarify pathophysiological functions of TCs in the disease. J. Cell. Physiol. 227: 2311–2317, 2012. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

N-(Phenethyl)piperazinyl quinolone derivatives that bear a methoxyimino-substituent have been synthesized and evaluated for antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms. In addition, to define structure-activity relationships, ciprofloxacin derivatives containing 2-oxo-2-phenylethyl or 2-hydroxyimino-2-phenylethyl moieties at N-4 position of piperazine ring were prepared and tested. Ciprofloxacin derivatives, containing a N-(chloro-substituted phenethyl) residue, showed in vitro Gram-positive and Gram-negative activity generally comparable or superior to that of reference quinolones. 相似文献

Neural ganglia of wild type third-instar larvae of Drosophila melanogaster were incubated for 13 hours at various concentrations of BUdR (1, 3, 9, 27 micrograms/ml). Metaphases were collected with colchicine, stained with Hoechst 33258, and scored under a fluorescence microscope. Metaphases in which the sister chromatids were clearly differentiated were scored for the presence of sister-chromatid exchanges (SCEs). At the lowest concentration of BUdR (1 microgram/ml), no SCEs were observed in either male or female neuroblasts. The SCEs were found at the higher concentrations of BUdR (3, 9, And 27 micrograms/ml) and with a greater frequency in females than in males. Therefore SCEs are not a spontaneous phenomenon in D. melanogaster, but are induced by BUdR incorporated in the DNA. A striking nonrandomness was found in the distribution of SCEs along the chromosomes. More than a third of the SCEs were clustered in the junctions between euchromatin and heterochromatin. The remaining SCEs were preferentially localized within the heterochromatic regions of the X chromosome and the autosomes and primarily on the entirely heterochromatic Y chromosome.--In order to find an alternative way of measuring the frequency of SCEs in the Drosophila neuroblasts, the occurrence of double dicentric rings was studied in two stocks carrying monocentric ring-X chromosomes. One ring chromosome, C(1)TR94--2, shows a rate of dicentric ring formation corresponding to the frequency of SCEs observed in the BUdR-labelled rod chromosomes. The other ring studied, R(1)2, exhibits a frequency of SCEs higher than that observed with both C(1) TR94--2 and rod chromosomes. 相似文献
