A specific and sensitive liquid chromatographic assay for the determination of 4-amidino-1-indanone-2′-amidinohydrazone (CGP 48 664, I) and a potential metabolite, 2-(4-carbamoyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-yliden) hydrazine carboximidamide (CGP 53 391, II), in human and animal plasma was developed. CGP 51 467, a structural analog, was added to the plasma samples (up to 1 ml) as an internal standard. After mixing, the samples were processed automatically using an ASPEC solid-phase extraction system. The final extracts were chromatographed on a 5 μm Purospher RP-18 HPLC column. Chromatography was performed using a gradient system and UV detection. The described HPLC method is suitable for specific and quantitative measurement of concentrations of I, as well as its potential metabolite II down to 5–10 ng/ml in human and animal (dog, rat) plasma with acceptable reproducibility and accuracy.  相似文献

We have investigated the mechanism for the low infectivity of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) released from interferon (IFN) -treated cells. With 10-30 units/ml of IFN there was an approximately 5-30 fold reduction in the production of virus particles, as measured by VSV proteins; however, the infectivity of the VSV released from IFN-treated mouse LB, JLS-V9R, or human GM2504 was drastically reduced (2 to 4 logs). The low infectivity of VSV was directly related to a deficiency in virion glycoprotein (G). IFN treatment did not change the specific infectivity of the VSV particles released by HeLa cells; their G protein was also not reduced. A further effect of IFN to reduce the amount of virion M protein appeared to be secondary and was probably not related to the reduced infectivity of VSV.  相似文献

It was found that ovalbumin stereoselectively oxidized one of the enantiomers of p-substituted racemic alcohols, thereby providing optically active alcohols with high optical purities. It was found out that, when used appropriately in combination with immobilized pea protein, immobilized ovalbumin made it possible to resolve and synthesize racemic 1-(2-naphthyl)ethanol, 1-phenylethanol, and 1-phenyl-1-propanol. Immobilized ovalbumin could be continuously recycled at least three times without lowering the yield and purity of the products. These results suggested that cereals, beans, and ovalbumin might have additional fourth function among conventional foods. Namely, there might contain nutritional, sensory, biologically regulatory and bio-catalytic functions in conventional foods.  相似文献

The bark of Virola elongata contains the new 8.8′-neolignan, 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)2,3-dimethyl-4-piperonylbutan-1-one besides the known 8.8′, 2.7′-neolignans, 4-hydroxy-2,3-dimethyl-6,7-dimethoxy-4-piperonyl-1-tetralone and 4-hydroxy-2,3-dimethyl-5,6-methylenedioxy-4-piperonyl-1-tetralone.  相似文献

Novel positive allosteric modulators of sigma-1 receptor represented by 2-(5-methyl-4-phenyl-2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)-acetamide enantiomers were synthesised using an asymmetric Michael addition of 2-nitroprop-1-enylbenzene to diethyl malonate. Following the chromatographic separation of the methyl erythro- and threo-4-nitro-3R- and 3S-phenylpentanoate diastereoisomers, target compounds were obtained by their reductive cyclisation into 5-methyl-4-phenylpyrrolidin-2-one enantiomers and the attachment of the acetamide group to the heterocyclic nitrogen. Experiments with electrically stimulated rat vas deference contractions induced by the PRE-084, an agonist of sigma-1 receptor, showed that (4R,5S)- and (4R,5R)-2-(5-methyl-4-phenyl-2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)-acetamides with an R-configuration at the C-4 chiral centre in the 2-pyrrolidone ring were more effective positive allosteric modulators of sigma-1 receptor than were their optical antipodes.  相似文献

The kinetics of the interactions of MPTP and its N-des-methyl-derivative (PTP) have been studied. Both were mechanism-based inhibitors as well as substrates for the enzyme. Analysis of the reaction progress-curves for the formation of the corresponding dihydropyridine derivatives allowed the kinetic parameters for the process and the partition ratio, which corresponds to the number of mol. of product formed per mol. of enzyme inactivated, to be determined for both compounds. The conversion of MPTP to its corresponding pyridinium-ion derivative through the action of MAO-B is known to be essential for its neurotoxicity. PTP has been reported not to be neurotoxic, although it appears to be a relatively good substrate for MAO-B as well as acting a mechanism-based inhibitor. Studies of the changes in absorbance spectra during the MAO-B catalysed oxidation were consistent with the formation of the corresponding pyridinium-ion derivative (MPP+), which is known to be the effective neurotoxin, as the end-product when MPTP was oxidized. In contrast the oxidation of PTP appeared to stop at the dihydropyridine stage with no significant further oxidation to the corresponding pyridine-derivative.  相似文献

Because 1-methyl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydropyridinium ion (MPP+) appears to damage the dopaminergic neuron and cause neuronal death, we characterized [3H]MPP+ binding sites in mouse brain membranes. Among several compounds tested, debrisoquin [3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-isoquinolinecarboxamidine] and some analogues were able to antagonize [3H]MPP+ binding. Debrisoquin is able to block adrenergic transmission and inhibit the activity of monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A). We found a certain correlation between the ability of these agents to displace [3H]MPP+ from its binding sites and their capacity to inhibit MAO-A activity. These data and the finding of a higher number of [3H]MPP+ binding sites in human placenta compared to mouse brain suggest that these sites may correspond to MAO-A enzymes. Recently it has been demonstrated in human brain that neurons in regions rich in catecholamines are positive for MAO-A. Accordingly, we suggest MAO-A as a possible accumulation site of MPP+ within the dopaminergic neuron. We also indicate the chemical structural requirement associated with the best binding of debrisoquin analogues with [3H]MPP+ sites. It would be reasonable to test the effects of debrisoquin-like drugs able to pass the blood-brain barrier on 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine toxicity.  相似文献

Abstract: The effects of 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG), an inhibitor of the uptake and use of glucose, on ATP loss caused by the neurotoxicant 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) were determined in the mouse brain. 2-DG alone had no effect on brain ATP levels, but when administered 30 min before MPTP exposure, 2-DG significantly enhanced MPTP-induced ATP reduction. This was reflected as an increase in ATP loss in the striatum (from 15 to 27%) as well as a significant decrease in ATP in the cerebellar cortex, an area of the brain that was not affected after exposure to MPTP alone. In mice pretreated with 2-DG, striatal ATP levels remained significantly decreased for >8 h after MPTP administration. In contrast, ATP levels in the cerebellar cortex returned to normal values within 4 h from MPTP exposure. Mazindol, a catecholamine uptake blocker, completely protected against MPTP-induced loss of striatal ATP in the absence of 2-DG, but it only partially prevented striatal ATP decrease after administration of both 2-DG and MPTP; mazindol was also ineffective in protecting against ATP loss caused by 2-DG and MPTP in the cerebellar cortex. 2-DG/MPTP-induced ATP loss appeared to be associated with the presence of the 1 -methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) metabolite because (1) the pattern of ATP recovery in the striatum and cerebellar cortex appeared to reflect the pattern of MPP+clearance from these areas of the brain (i.e., significant MPP+ levels persisted longer in the striatum than in the cerebellar cortex), and (2) ATP decrease was completely prevented by blocking the conversion of MPTP to MPP+with the monoamine oxidase B inhibitor deprenyl. Data indicate that impairment of glucose metabolism dramatically enhances the effects of MPTP/MPP+ on cerebral energy supplies, making these effects relatively nonselective for dopaminergic neurons of the nigrostriatal pathway.  相似文献

Abstract 1 Field studies evaluated plant attractants and analogues as tools to move corn rootworm beetles (Diabrotica spp.) into areas to be treated with toxic baits for population suppression via mass removal/annihilation of reproductive adults. 2 When dispensed from sticky traps in maize, 2‐phenyl‐1‐ethylamine and 2‐phenyl‐1‐ethanol captured more northern corn rootworm, Diabrotica barberi, than did 4‐methoxyphenethanol. Only 2‐phenyl‐1‐ethanol attracted the western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera, but not until maize matured beyond milk stage. 3 Attraction of D. barberi to the amine, alone or blended with 2‐phenyl‐1‐ethanol, occurred before and after maize flowered but not during intervening silk or blister stages. Attraction recurred during early milk stage at or before 50% emergence of adult female D. barberi or D. v. virgifera, respectively, and before populations declined for the season. 4 Synergistic interaction of 2‐phenyl‐1‐ethylamine with 2‐phenyl‐1‐ethanol in attracting D. barberi females did not occur until maize matured to late milk stage. 5 The amine‐alcohol blend (0.44 point sources m?2) doubled the density of D. barberi but not D. v. virgifera when applied to small plots within mostly milk‐stage or younger maize. Traps without bait within attractant‐treated plots captured more female, but not male, D. barberi than did traps in untreated control plots, hinting that females accounted for most of the observed increase in beetle density. 6 The results suggest that attractants can be used despite phenological limitations to concentrate preovipositional females within field areas and thus to complement a variety of corn rootworm control strategies.  相似文献

The effect of antiestrogens on the nuclear binding of the estrogen receptor   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
T S Ruh  M F Ruh 《Steroids》1974,24(2):209-224
Experiments were designed to determine whether or not various antiestrogens in direct competition with estradiol-17β (E2) would inhibit the translocation of the estrogen receptor complex from the cytoplasm to nuclei in rat uterine tissue. Incubation of the antiestrogens CI-628, cis-clomiphene, U-11,100A and MER-25 with rat uteri caused the nuclear uptake of the antiestrogen receptor complex which was greatest for most antiestrogens at concentrations of 1 × 10?6 to 1 × 10?5M. At higher concentrations of CI-628, cis-clomiphene, and U-11,100A the nuclear binding of the antiestrogen receptor complex was greatly decreased. Incubation of the antiestrogens with E2 resulted in a dramatic inhibition of the nuclear uptake of the estrogen receptor. Trans-clomiphene, a weak estrogen, did not inhibit the movement of the uterine cytoplasmic receptor into the nuclear fraction.  相似文献

Abstract: The effects of the parkinsonism-inducing neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) and its 4-electron oxidation product 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) were studied in isolated mitochondria and in mouse brain striatal slices. ADP-stimulated oxidation of NAD-linked substrates was inhibited in a time-dependent manner by MPP+ (0.1–0.5 m M ), but not MPTP, in mitochondria prepared from rat brain, mouse brain, or rat liver. Under identical conditions, succinate oxidation was relatively unaffected. In neostriatal slices prepared from the mouse, a species susceptible to the dopaminergic neurotoxicity of MPTP, incubation with either MPP+ or MPTP caused metabolic changes consistent with inhibition of mitochondnial oxidation, i.e., an increase in the formation of lactate and accumulation of the amino acids glutamate and alanine with concomitant decreases in glutamine and aspartate levels. The changes resulting from incubation with MPTP were prevented by the monoamine oxidase inhibitor pargyline, which blocks formation of MPP+ from MPTP. The results suggest that compromise of mitochondrial function and its metabolic sequelae within dopaminergic neurons could be an important factor in the neurotoxicity observed after MPTP administration.  相似文献

Neutral sugar composition of cell walls of suspension-cultured tobacco cells was examined with the advance of culture age by an anion-exchange chromatography. Isolated cell walls gave on hydrolysis the following sugars: 2% of l-rhamnose, 6% of d-mannose, 26% of l-arabinose, 13% of d-galactose, 8% of d-xylose and 47% of d-glucose as neutral sugars. Little changes in composition of cell wall polysaccharides were recognized with the advance of culture age. Sugar composition of the extra-cellular polysaccharides was similar to that of hemicellulose fraction from cell walls. Pectinic acid gave on hydrolysis 2-O-(α-d-galactopyranosyluronic acid)-l-rhamnose, d-galacturonic acid and its oligosaccharides.  相似文献

Regioselective alkylation of 2-thiouracils 1a–c and 4-thiouracils 7a,b with 2,3-O-isopropylidene-2,3-dihydroxypropyl chloride (2) afforded 2-{[(2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl) methyl]thio}pyrimidin-4(1H)-ones 3a–c and 4-{[(2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl]thio} pyrimidin-2(1H)-ones 8a,b, respectively. Further alkylation with 2 and/or 2,3-O-isopropylidine-1-O-(4-toluenesulfonyl)-glycerol (4) gave the acyclo N-nucleosides 5a–c and 9a,b whose deprotection afforded 6a–c and 10a,b. 2-(Methylthio)pyrimidin-4(1H)-ones 11a–c and 4-(methylthio)pyrimidin-2(1H)-ones 14a,b were treated with 2 and/or 4 to give 12a–c and 15a,b which were deprotected to give 13a–c and 16a,b. Pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dithiones 17a–c were treated with two equivalents of 2 to give 2,4-bis{[(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl]thio}pyrimidines 18a–c. Deprotection of compounds 18a–c gave 2,4-bis[(2,3-dihydroxypropyl)thio]pyrimidines 19a-c. The activity of the deprotected nucleosides against Hepatitis B virus was evaluated and showed moderate inhibition activity against HBV with mild cytotoxicity.  相似文献

Microbial hydroxylation of o-bromophenylacetic acid provided 2-bromo-5-hydroxyphenylacetic acid. This enabled a route to the key intermediate 4-bromo-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran for synthesizing a melatonin receptor agonist and sodium hydrogen exchange compounds. Pd-mediated coupling reactions of 4-bromo-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran provided easy access to the 4-substituted-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans.  相似文献

The 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium species (MPP+) is the four-electron oxidation product of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) and is widely assumed to be the actual neurotoxic species responsible for the MPTP-induced destruction of dopaminergic neurons. MPTP is oxidized by the enzyme monoamine oxidase-B to a dihydropyridinium intermediate which is oxidized further to MPP+, an effective inhibitor of the oxidation of the Complex I substrates glutamate/malate in isolated mitochondrial preparations. In the present study, the tetraphenylboron anion (TPB) greatly potentiated the inhibitory effects of MPP+ and other selected pyridinium species on glutamate/malate respiration in isolated mouse liver mitochondria. At 10 microM TPB, the potentiation ranged from approximately 50-fold to greater than 1,000-fold for the several pyridinium species tested. In other experiments, TPB greatly enhanced the accumulation of [3H]MPP+ by isolated mitochondrial preparations. This facilitation by TPB of MPP+ accumulation into mitochondria explains, at least in part, the potentiation by TPB of the above-mentioned inhibition of mitochondrial respiration. Moreover, TPB addition increased the amount of lactate formed during the incubation of mouse neostriatal tissue slices with MPTP and other tetrahydropyridines. The administration of TPB also potentiated the dopaminergic neurotoxicity of MPTP in male Swiss-Webster mice. All of these observations, taken together, are consistent with the premise that the inhibitory effect of MPP+ on mitochondrial respiration within dopaminergic neurons is the ultimate mechanism to explain MPTP-induced neurotoxicity.  相似文献
