Two cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) activities were identified in pig aortic endothelial cells, a cyclic GMP-stimulated PDE and a cyclic AMP PDE. Cyclic GMP-stimulated PDE had Km values of 367 microM for cyclic AMP and 24 microM for cyclic GMP, and low concentrations (1 microM) of cyclic GMP increased the affinity of the enzyme for cyclic AMP (Km = 13 microM) without changing the Vmax. This isoenzyme was inhibited by trequinsin [IC50 (concn. giving 50% inhibition of substrate hydrolysis) = 0.6 microM for cyclic AMP hydrolysis in the presence of cyclic GMP; IC50 = 0.6 microM for cyclic GMP hydrolysis] and dipyridamole (IC50 = 5 microM for cyclic AMP hydrolysis in the presence of cyclic GMP; IC50 = 3 microM for cyclic GMP hydrolysis). Cyclic AMP PDE exhibited a Km of 2 microM for cyclic AMP and did not hydrolyse cyclic GMP. This activity was inhibited by trequinsin (IC50 = 0.2 microM), dipyridamole (IC50 = 6 microM) and, selectively, by rolipram (IC50 = 3 microM). Inhibitors of cyclic GMP PDE (M&B 22948) and of low Km (Type III) cyclic AMP PDE (SK&F 94120) only weakly inhibited the two endothelial PDEs. Incubation of intact cells with trequinsin and dipyridamole induced large increases in cyclic GMP, which were completely blocked by LY-83583. Rolipram, SK&F 94120 and M&B 22948 did not significantly influence cyclic GMP accumulation. Dipyridamole enhanced the increase in cyclic GMP induced by sodium nitroprusside. Cyclic AMP accumulation was stimulated by dipyridamole and trequinsin with and without forskolin. Rolipram, although without effect alone, increased cyclic AMP in the presence of forskolin, whereas M&B 22948 and SK&F 94120 had no effects on resting or forskolin-stimulated levels. These results suggest that cyclic GMP-stimulated PDE regulates cyclic GMP levels and that both endothelial PDE isoenzymes contribute to the control of cyclic AMP. 相似文献

In isolated rat adipocytes, basal as well as insulin-stimulated 3-O-methylglucose transport was inhibited nearly completely (maximal inhibition: 95%) by the nucleoside transport inhibitors dipyridamole (IC50 = 5 microM), nitrobenzylthioguanosine (20 microM), nitrobenzylthioinosine (35 microM) and papaverine (130 microM). Transport kinetics in the presence of 10 microM dipyridamole revealed a significant increase in the transport Km value of 3-O-methylglucose (3.45 +/- 0.6 vs 2.36 +/- 0.29 mM in the controls) as well as a decrease in the Vmax value (4.84 +/- 0.95 vs 9.03 +/- 1.19 pmol/s per microliter lipid in the controls). Half-maximally inhibiting concentrations of dipyridamole were one order of magnitude higher than those inhibiting nucleoside (thymidine) uptake (0.48 microM). The inhibitory effect of dipyridamole (5 microM) reached its maximum within 30 s. The agent failed to affect insulin's half-maximally stimulating concentration (0.075 nM) indicating that it did not interfere with the mechanism by which insulin stimulates glucose transport. Further, dipyridamole fully suppressed the glucose-inhibitable cytochalasin B binding (IC50 = 1.65 +/- 0.05 microM). The data indicate that nucleoside transport inhibitors reduce glucose transport by a direct interaction with the transporter or a closely related protein. It is suggested that glucose and nucleoside transporters share structural, and possibly functional, features. 相似文献

Effects of Ca2+-channel antagonists on nucleoside and nucleobase transport in human erythrocytes and cultured mammalian cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Lidoflazine strongly inhibited the equilibrium exchange of uridine in human erythrocytes (Ki approximately 16 nM). Uridine zero-trans influx was similarly inhibited by lidoflazine in cultured HeLa cells (IC50 approximately to 80 nM), whereas P388 mouse leukemia and Novikoff rat hepatoma cells were three orders of magnitude more resistant (IC50 greater than 50 microM). Uridine transport was also inhibited by nifedipine, verapamil, diltiazem, prenylamine and trifluoperazine, but only at similarly high concentrations in both human erythrocytes and the cell lines. IC50 values ranged from about 10 microM for nifedipine and about 20 microM for verapamil to more than 100 microM for diltiazem, prenylamine and trifluoperazine. The concentrations required for inhibition of nucleoside transport are several orders higher than those blocking Ca2+ channels. Lidoflazine competitively inhibited the binding of nitrobenzylthioinosine to high-affinity sites in human erythrocytes, but did not inhibit the dissociation of nitrobenzylthioinosine from these sites on the transporter as is observed with dipyridamole and dilazep. 相似文献

Modulation of IMP dehydrogenase activity and guanylate metabolism by tiazofurin (2-beta-D-ribofuranosylthiazole-4-carboxamide) 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Tiazofurin, a C-nucleoside, was cytotoxic in hepatoma 3924A cells grown in culture with an LC50 = 7.5 microM. In the culture, a closely linked dose-related response of tumor cell-kill and depletion of GTP pools was observed after tiazofurin treatment. In rats carrying subcutaneously transplanted hepatoma 3924A solid tumors, a single intraperitoneal injection of tiazofurin (200 mg/kg) caused a rapid inhibition of IMP dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.14) activity and depleted GDP, GTP, and dGTP pools in the tumor; concurrently, the 5-phosphoribosyl 1-pyrophosphate (PRPP) and IMP pools expanded 8- and 15-fold, respectively. Tiazofurin decreased tumoral IMP dehydrogenase activity and dGTP pools in a dose-dependent manner over a range of 50-200 mg/kg; by contrast, the depletion of GTP and the accumulation of IMP and PRPP pools were near maximum at 50 mg/kg. The increase in PRPP pools may be attributed to an inhibition by IMP of the activity of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.8). The IMP dehydrogenase activity and the pools of ribonucleotides returned to the normal range by 24-48 h after the single injection of tiazofurin. However, the markedly depleted dGTP pools remained low for 72 h. Tiazofurin treatment resulted in significant anti-tumor activity in rats inoculated with hepatoma 3924A. The decrease in GTP levels and particularly the sustained depletion in the dGTP pools may explain, in part at least, the chemo-therapeutic action of tiazofurin on hepatoma 3924A. This is the first report showing that a marked therapeutic response was achieved against rapidly growing hepatoma 3924A by treatment with a single anti-metabolite. 相似文献

Tiazofurin (TR), an inhibitor of IMP dehydrogenase, causes remissions and induced differentiation in human leukemia through lowering the concentrations of GTP and dGTP. A deoxycytidine analog, difluorodeoxycytidine (DFDC), is an anti-tumor agent phosphorylated by deoxycytidine kinase, resulting in decreased concentration of dCTP, leading to inhibition of DNA synthesis. In HL-60 cells DFDC induced differentiation and inhibited proliferation in a dose-dependent manner (IC50 = 4 nM); TR provided synergism with DFDC. DFDC inhibited proliferation in OVCAR-5 human ovarian carcinoma cells (IC50 = 25 nM) and colony formation in PANC-1 human pancreatic carcinoma cells (IC50 = 2 nM) and rat hepatoma 3924A cells (IC50 = 22 nM). TR and DFDC are synergistically cytotoxic in hepatoma cells and additive in PANC-1 cells. The two drugs together should be helpful in treating leukemias and solid tumors in humans. 相似文献

Sodium-dependent nucleoside transport in mouse intestinal epithelial cells. Two transport systems with differing substrate specificities 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Nucleoside transport was examined in freshly isolated mouse intestinal epithelial cells. The uptake of formycin B, the C nucleoside analog of inosine, was concentrative and required extracellular sodium. The initial rate of sodium-dependent formycin B transport was saturable with a Km of 45 +/- 3 microM. The purine nucleosides adenosine, inosine, guanosine, and deoxyadenosine were all good inhibitors of sodium-dependent formycin B transport with 50% inhibition (IC50) observed at concentrations less than 30 microM. Of the pyrimidine nucleosides examined, only uridine (IC50, 41 +/- 9 microM) was a good inhibitor. Thymidine and cytidine were poor inhibitors with IC50 values greater than 300 microM. Direct measurements of [3H]thymidine transport revealed, however, that the uptake of this nucleoside was also mediated by a sodium-dependent mechanism. Thymidine transport was inhibited by low concentrations of cytidine, uridine, adenosine, and deoxyadenosine (IC50 values less than 25 microM), but not by formycin B, inosine, or guanosine (IC50 values greater than 600 microM). These data indicate that there are two sodium-dependent mechanisms for nucleoside transport in mouse intestinal epithelial cells, and that formycin B and thymidine may serve as model substrates to distinguish between these transporters. Neither of these sodium-dependent transport mechanisms was inhibited by nitrobenzylmercaptopurine riboside (10 microM), a potent inhibitor of one of the equilibrative (facilitated diffusion) nucleoside transporters found in many cells. 相似文献

Inhibition of human skin fibroblast proliferation by histamine and phorbol esters is mediated by protein kinase C 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The proliferation of human skin fibroblasts in culture was examined using a [3H]thymidine incorporation assay. Histamine inhibited thymidine incorporation with an IC50 of about 0.2 microM. This effect was blocked by the H1 receptor antagonist mepyramine but not by the H2 receptor antagonist cimetidine. Protein kinase C activators, including several phorbol esters and mezerine, also inhibited thymidine incorporation. The IC50 for beta-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate was less than 0.1 nM. The alpha-isomer of this compound was inactive. Long-term treatment of cells with the beta-isomer eliminated the ability of both histamine and phorbol ester to inhibit thymidine incorporation, presumably due to downregulation of protein kinase C. Our results suggest that histamine H1 receptors are linked to activation of protein kinase C and that activation of this enzyme leads to an inhibition of cell proliferation. 相似文献

Evidence is presented for the tight linkage of ribonucleotide reductase activity with normal and neoplastic proliferation. A sensitive and reproducible assay was worked out to measure CDP reductase activity in rat in normal liver and various tissues, hepatomas of different growth rates, kidney tumors and sarcoma and tissue culture cells of hepatoma 3924A. In the standard assay, linear kinetics were obtained and the reductase activity of the rat liver was 23 ± 3 pmol CDP metabolized per hr/mg protein. When hepatoma 3924A tissue culture cells that had accumulated in plateau phase were replated, allowed to go through lag and log phases and again into the plateau phase during a 96-hr period, ribonucleotide reductase activity rose at 6 hr after cells were plated, the activity was maintained at high levels during the first 48-hr period, and returned to the resting level at 72 and 96 hr. This rise was earlier than that of 6 other enzymes of pyrimidine and salvage pathways (thymidine kinase, CTP synthetase, orotidine-5′-phosphate decarboxylase, orotate phosphoribosyltransferase, uridine phosphoribosyltransferase, and uridine-cytidine kinase). The rise in reductase activity was synchronous with the increase in incorporation of cytidine and deoxycytidine in the hepatoma cells. The reductase activity was markedly elevated in kidney tumors (31-fold) and in sarcoma (60-fold) as compared to the kidney cortex and muscle, respectively. In 14 lines of transplantable solid hepatomas, reductase activity was increased from 6.2- to 326-fold of that of normal rat liver. The rise in reductase activity positively correlated with the growth rate of the hepatomas; the behavior of CDP reductase was both transformation- and progression-linked. Reductase activity was also high in differentiating and regenerating liver; thus, it also was linked with normal proliferation. However, the elevation in activity was more marked in the rapidly-growing solid hepatoma 3924A (97-fold) than in normal tissues with the same replicative rate, such as regenerating (56-fold) or differentiating (46-fold) liver. Reductase activity was also high in organs of active cell renewal (thymus, bone marrow, spleen and intestine). Since in the solid hepatomas the levels of the substrate for the reductase, the ribonucleoside diphosphates, were generally unaltered, the marked elevation observed in the concentration of deoxynucleoside triphosphates may be attributed primarily to the early and marked rise in CDP reductase activity. 相似文献

Although prolidase [E.C.3.4.13.9] is found in normal cells, substantially increased levels are found in some neoplastic tissues. Prolidase evokes the ability to hydrolyse the imido-bond of various low molecular weight compounds coupled to L-proline. The synthesis of three proline analogues of anthraquinone-2-carboxylic acid (1-3) has been performed. Treatment of these prodrugs with prolidase generated L-proline and the free drug, demonstrating their substrate susceptibility prolidase. The concentrations of 1, 2 and 3 needed to inhibit [1H]thymidine incorporation into DNA by 50% (IC50) in breast cancer MCF-7 cells were found to be 185 +/- 5 microM, 107 +/- 6 microM and 87 +/- 6 microM, respectively, suggesting a lower cytotoxic potency of these compounds compared to Hoechst 33228 (IC50 = 55 +/- 6 microM). 相似文献

An experimental study using human melanoma (NEL-MI), rat hepatoma (Fu5-5), and human kidney (293-31) cell lines was undertaken in order to evaluate the antitumor activity of 4-hydroxyanisole (4-OHA) in vitro. Prior reports have indicated highly specific antitumor activity of 4-OHA against melanoma cells in vitro. This specific antitumor activity has been proposed to be due to the oxidation of 4-OHA by tyrosinase to cytotoxic oxidation products. Dose-dependent cytotoxicity was observed when cells were cultured for 72 h in the presence of 4-OHA. At 100 microM, 4-OHA produced growth inhibition of 62%, 32%, and 55% in melanoma, hepatoma, and kidney cell lines, respectively. No effect was seen at 10 microM 4-OHA. 1,000 microM 4-OHA produced 100% kill. Tyrosinase activity was detected only in melanoma cells. The effect of 100 microM 4-OHA on the incorporation of 3H DNA precursors in melanoma, hepatoma, and kidney cells was also studied. Thymidine incorporation was inhibited in all three cell lines at the lowest cell density tested, with the greatest inhibition seen on melanoma cells. As cell density increased, the effect of 4-OHA on thymidine incorporation decreased. With respect to RNA synthesis, 4-OHA significantly reduced the incorporation of uridine in all three cell lines, with the greatest effect in melanoma cells. Cell density also affected the inhibition of uridine incorporation, but to a lesser extent than that observed on thymidine incorporation. The effect of 4-OHA on leucine incorporation was modest and uninfluenced by cell density. Thus, cytotoxicity of 4-OHA may involve two different mechanisms.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Peritoneal rat macrophages expressed solely an Na(+)-dependent, concentrative nucleoside transporter, which possesses a single Na(+)-binding site and transports purine nucleosides and uridine but not thymidine or deoxycytidine. The Michaelis-Menten constants for formycin B and Na+ were about 6 microns and 14 mM, respectively, and the estimated Na+:formycin B stoichiometry was 1:1. Rat macrophages accumulated 5 microM formycin B to a steady-state level exceeding that in the medium by about 500-fold during 60 min of incubation at 37 degrees C. Concentrative formycin B transport was resistant to inhibition by nitrobenzylthioinosine, lidoflazine, dilazep and nifedipine, but was slightly inhibited by high concentrations of dipyridamole (greater than 10 microM) and probenecid (greater than 100 microM). Mouse peritoneal macrophages and lines of mouse macrophages and normal rat kidney cells expressed Na(+)-dependent, active nucleoside transport but in addition significant Na(+)-independent, facilitated nucleoside transport. Facilitated nucleoside transport in these cells was sensitive to inhibition by nitrobenzylthioinosine, dilazep and dipyridamole. The presence of these inhibitors greatly enhanced the concentrative accumulation of formycin B by these cells by inhibiting the efflux via the facilitated transporter of the formycin B actively transported into the cells. Whereas rat macrophages lacked high-affinity nitrobenzylthioinosine-binding sites, mouse macrophages and normal rat kidney cells possessed about 10,000 such sites/cell. Rat and mouse erythrocytes, rat lymphocytes, and lines of Novikoff rat hepatoma cells, Chinese hamster ovary cells, Mus dunni cells and embryonic monkey kidney cells expressed only facilitated nucleoside transport. 相似文献

Inhibition of adenosine reuptake by nucleoside transport inhibitors, such as dipyridamole and dilazep, is proposed to increase extracellular levels of adenosine and thereby potentiate adenosine receptor-dependent pathways that promote cardiovascular health. Thus adenosine can act as a paracrine and/or autocrine hormone, which has been shown to regulate glucose uptake in some cell types. However, the role of adenosine in modulating glucose transport in cardiomyocytes is not clear. Therefore, we investigated whether exogenously applied adenosine or inhibition of adenosine transport by S-(4-nitrobenzyl)-6-thioinosine (NBTI), dipyridamole, or dilazep modulated basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in the murine cardiomyocyte cell line HL-1. HL-1 cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting to determine which GLUT isoforms are present. Glucose uptake was measured in the presence of dipyridamole (3-300 microM), dilazep (1-100 microM), NBTI (10-500 nM), and adenosine (50-250 microM) or the nonmetabolizable adenosine analog 2-chloro-adenosine (250 microM). Our results demonstrated that HL-1 cells possess GLUT1 and GLUT4, the isoforms typically present in cardiomyocytes. We found no evidence for adenosine-dependent regulation of basal or insulin-stimulated glucose transport in HL-1 cardiomyocytes. However, we did observe a dose-dependent inhibition of glucose transport by dipyridamole (basal, IC(50) = 12.2 microM, insulin stimulated, IC(50) = 13.09 microM) and dilazep (basal, IC(50) = 5.7 microM, insulin stimulated, IC(50) = 19 microM) but not NBTI. Thus our data suggest that dipyridamole and dilazep, which are widely used to specifically inhibit nucleoside transport, have a broader spectrum of transport inhibition than previously described. Moreover, these data may explain previous observations, in which dipyridamole was noted to be proischemic at high doses. 相似文献

The characteristics of nucleoside transport were examined in Walker 256 rat carcinosarcoma and S49 mouse lymphoma cells. In Walker 256 cells the initial rates of uridine, thymidine and adenosine uptake were insensitive to the nucleoside transport inhibitor nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBMPR) (1 microM), but were partially inhibited by dipyridamole (10 microM), another inhibitor of nucleoside transport. In contrast, the transport of these nucleosides in S49 cells was completely blocked by both inhibitors. Nucleoside transport in Walker 256 and S49 cells also differed in its sensitivity to the thiol reagent p-chloromercuribenzenesulphonate (pCMBS). Uridine transport in Walker 256 cells was inhibited by pCMBS with an IC50 (concentration producing 50% inhibition) of less than 25 microM, and inhibition was readily reversed by beta-mercaptoethanol. In S49 cells uridine transport was only inhibited at much higher concentrations of pCMBS (IC50 approximately equal to 300 microM). In other respects nucleoside transport in Walker 256 and S49 cells were quite similar. The Km and Vmax. values for uridine transport were nearly identical, and the transporters of both cell lines appeared to accept a broad range of nucleosides as substrates. Uridine transport in Walker 256 cells was non-concentrative and did not require an energy source. These studies demonstrate that nucleoside uptake in Walker 256 cells is mediated by a facilitated-diffusion mechanism which differs markedly from that of S49 cells in its sensitivity to the transport inhibitor NBMPR and the thiol reagent pCMBS. 相似文献

Novikoff rat hepatoma cells were propagated in suspension culture in the presence of 1 micron methotrexate and various concentrations of hypoxanthine (or adenosine plus guanosine) and thymidine and with or without the inhibitor of nucleoside and purine transport, Persantin (dipyridamole). Methotrexate-treated cells failed to replicate and died even if the medium was supplemented with either thymidine or a purine source, but normal replication occurred when both were present. The additional presence of Persantin reduced the rate of transport of thymidine or hypoxanthine and thus their incorporation into the nucleotide pool and decreased the rate of cell replication. The growth rate of the cells was directly proportional to the rate of incorporation of thymidine (in the presence of excess hypoxanthine) or of hypoxanthine (in the presence of excess thymidine) until the normal maximum growth rate was obtained. Normal cell replication in the presence of methotrexate and Persantin occurred only when the medium was supplemented with 500 micron hypoxanthine and 30 micron thymidine. The results illustrate a dependence of the growth rate of mammalian cells on the rate of transport of essential nutrients into the cell. 相似文献

A cyclodepsipeptide antibiotic 86/88 (enniatin B) with strong hypolipidemic action was isolated from the culture liquid of the fungus INA F-86/88 identified as Fusarium lateritium Nees var. stilboides (Wr.) Bilai. In the Hep G2 cell culture the antibiotic suppressed 14C-acetate incorporation into cholesterol (IC50 1.75 microM), cholesterol ethers (IC50 1 microM), triglycerides (IC50 1.3 microM) and free fatty acids (IC50 2.2 microM). The most pronounced effect of the drugs, i.e. the suppression of the cholesterol ethers synthesis is likely due not only to the ACAT inhibition but also to the inhibition of the triglyceride synthesis and the diminishing of the free fatty acids pool in the cells. 相似文献

Comparison of enzymatic characterization and gene organization of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 8 family in humans 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Full-length cDNAs of human cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 8B (PDE8B) were isolated. Enzymatic characteristics of a dominant variant encoding a protein of 885 residues (PDE8B1) were compared with those of PDE8A1. The recombinant PDE8A1 and PDE8B1 proteins of an entire form were produced in both cytosolic and membrane fractions of the transfected COS cells. The human PDE8B1 was a high-affinity cAMP-PDE with K(m) value of 101+/-12 nM for cAMP, which is greater than that of PDE8A1 (40+/-1 nM). Relative V(max) value of PDE8A1 was 57+/-8% compared with that of PDE8B1 (100+/-12%). Although PDE8A1 was moderately inhibited by dipyridamole with IC(50) value of 8+/-2 microM, the compound antagonized the PDE8B1 activity at three-fold higher concentration (IC(50)=23+/-2 microM). The human PDE8B gene was composed of 22 exons, spanning over 217 kb. Although overall sequence identity between PDE8A1 and PDE8B1 was 68%, positions of junctions of each exon between the PDE8A1 and PDE8B1 sequences were well matched, indicating evolutionary relatedness of both genes. 相似文献
