A series of hesperidin derivatives were prepared and identified by IR, 1H NMR, and MS spectra. These compounds were evaluated in vitro and in vivo based on α-glucosidase inhibition, glucose consumption of HepG2 cells, and blood glucose level in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. The results revealed that all the compounds exhibited anti-hyperglycemic activities. The inhibition at 10?3 M of compounds 3 and 7a on α-glucosidase were 55.02% and 53.34%, respectively, as compared to 54.80% by acarbose. Treated by compound 3 and the reference drug metformin, glucose consumption of HepG2 cell were 1.78 and 2.11 mM, respectively. After the streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice were oral administrated with compound 3 at 100 mg kg?1 d?1 for 10 days, the blood glucose level of 3 treated mice (13.23 mM, P <0.05) showed significant difference when compared to model control (23.03 mM). Thus, compound 3 exhibited promising anti-hyperglycemic activity.  相似文献

Chemical investigation of leaves and heartwood of Dalbergia boehmii resulted in the isolation of two new phenolic compounds, designated dalbergestan (1) and dalbergichromone (2), along with eleven known compounds, carpachromene (3), proanthocyanidin A-2 (4); piceatannol (5); biochanin A (6); macckiain (7); homopterocarpin (8); angolensin (9); medicarpin (10); 2′,7-dihydroxy-4′,5′-dimethoxyisoflavone (11); 2′-methoxyformononetin (12); and genistein (13). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses including, IR, UV, 1D and 2D – NMR as well as HRMS data. Some of the isolated compounds were evaluated for their in vitro insulin secretion activity on isolated mice islets, leishmanicidal activity against L. major (DESTO) promastigotes and in vitro cytotoxicity on MCF-7 cell lines. All tested compounds were inactive on glucose-stimulated insulin secretion at stimulatory glucose (20.0 mM) from MIN6 cells. Compounds 3 (IC50, 70.0 μg/ml), 6 (IC50, 60.3 μg/ml), 7 (IC50, 86.5 μg/ml) and 13 (IC50, 62.6 μg/ml) exhibited low leishmanicidal activity while compound 12 (IC50, 56.8 μg/ml) displayed a moderate activity. Compounds 3 and 5 were found to be active against MCF-7 at 50 μM with IC50 value 33.2 ± 3.79 μg/ml and 42.64 ± 5.05 μg/ml respectively.  相似文献

4-Thiazolidinones derivatives of marine bromopyrrole alkaloids were synthesized as potential antibiofilm compounds. Among the synthesized compounds, some showed promising antibiofilm activity. Biological data revealed that 1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives are more potent antibiofilm agents compared to 1,3-thiazinan-4-ones. Antibiofilm activity of compound 4b, 4c (MIC = 0.78 μg/ml) was 3-fold superior than standard vancomycin (MIC = 3.125 μg/ml) while activity of compound 4d, 4f, 4g and 4h was 2-fold (MIC = 1.56 μg/ml) against Staphylococcus aureus biofilm. Compound 4b–4h showed equal antibiofilm activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis compared to standard Vancomycin (MIC = 3.125 μg/ml).  相似文献

Species of the family Combretaceae are used extensively in traditional medicine against inflammation and infections, and although antibacterial activity has been reported in non-polar extracts, further rationale for the widespread use of the Combretaceae is expected to exist. Methanol extracts of leaves of ten different Combretum species were evaluated for antioxidant activity by spraying TLC chromatograms of each leaf extract with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). Compounds with antioxidant activity were detected by bleaching of the purple DPPH colour. Leaf extracts of Combretum apiculatum subsp. apiculatum had the most antioxidant compounds. This species was consequently selected for phytochemical investigation. A DPPH assay-directed fractionation of the leaf extracts of C. apiculatum led to the isolation of four antioxidant compounds from the ethyl acetate and butanol soluble fractions. The structures of the compounds were determined by spectroscopic analyses (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and MS) and identified as: cardamonin (1), pinocembrin (2), quercetrin (3) and kaempferol (4). In a quantitative antioxidant assay, the more polar fractions (ethyl acetate and butanol) obtained by solvent–solvent fractionation had the highest antioxidant activity among the solvent fractions obtained from C. apiculatum, with EC50 values of 3.91 ± 0.02 and 2.44 ± 0.02 μg/ml respectively. Of the four isolated compounds, quercetrin (4) and kaempferol (3) had the strongest antioxidant activity, with EC50 values of 11.81 ± 85 and 47.36 ± 0.03 μM respectively. Cardamonin (1) and pinocembrin (2) did not demonstrate strong activity. L-ascorbic acid was used as standard antioxidant agent (EC50 = 13.37 ± 0.20 μM or 2.35 μg/ml). The cytotoxicity of cardamonin and pinocembrin was evaluated on Vero kidney cells using the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay with berberine as positive control. At concentrations higher than 50 μg/ml of cardamonin or pinocembrin, the cells were not viable. Cardamonin was more toxic (LC50 = 1.97 μg/ml) than pinocembrin (LC50 = 29.47 μg/ml) and even the positive control, berberine (LC50 = 12.35 μg/ml).  相似文献

A series of γ-butyrolactone derivatives has been designed and synthesized from commercially available 2-acetyl butyrolactone (3-acetyldihydrofuran-2(3H)-one, 1) by aminoalkylating its active methylene followed by condensation with different aldehydes. Compounds having amino group were further converted to their respective tartrate salts and were evaluated for spermicidal activity against human sperm in vitro. Compounds showing appreciable spermicidal activity at ⩽0.5% [3c, 4d (0.5%); 2c, 3d (0.1%); 2d, 4c (0.05%)] were tested for safety studies against human cervical (HeLa) cell line. These compounds were found safer than, Nonoxynol-9. One of the two most active compounds was also found to be the safest (IC50 = 961 μg/ml; 4c), while the second compound exhibited lower safety against HeLa (IC50 = 269 μg/ml; 2d). The compound 4c significantly reduced the number of free thiols on human sperm. All the compounds were inactive against Trichomonas vaginalis.  相似文献

A series of 23 novel bis-phosphonium salts based on pyridoxine were synthesized and their antibacterial activities were evaluated in vitro. All compounds were inactive against gram-negative bacteria and exhibited the structure-dependent activity against gram-positive bacteria. The antibacterial activity enhanced with the increase in chain length at acetal carbon atom in the order n-Pr > Et > Me. Further increasing of length and branching of alkyl chain leads to the reduction of antibacterial activity. Replacement of the phenyl substituents at the phosphorus atoms in 5,6-bis(triphenylphosphonio(methyl))-2,2,8-trimethyl-4H-[1,3]-dioxino[4,5-c]pyridine dichloride (compound 1) with n-butyl, m-tolyl or p-tolyl as well as chloride anions in the compound 1 with bromides (compound 14a) increased the activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis up to 5 times (MICs = 1–1.25 μg/ml). But in practically all cases chemical modifications of compound 1 led to the increase of its toxicity for HEK-293 cells. The only exception is compound 5,6-bis[tributylphosphonio(methyl)]-2,2,8-trimethyl-4H-[1,3]dioxino[4,5-c]pyridine dichloride (10a) which demonstrated lower MIC values against S. aureus and S. epidermidis (1 μg/ml) and lower cytotoxicity on HEK-293 cells (CC50 = 200 μg/ml). Compound 10a had no significant mutagenic and genotoxic effects and was selected for further evaluation. It should be noted that all bis-phosphonium salt based on pyridoxine were much more toxic than vancomycin.  相似文献

Drug resistance is a major challenge in antimalarial chemotherapy. In addition, a complete cure of malaria requires intervention at various stages in the development of the parasite within the host. There are only a few antimalarials that target the liver stage of the Plasmodium species which is an essential part of the life cycle of the malarial parasite. We report a series of antimalarial 3,5-bis(benzylidene)-4-piperidones and related N-acyl analogs 15, a number of which exhibit potent in vitro growth-inhibiting properties towards drug-sensitive D6 and drug-resistant C235 strains of Plasmodium falciparum as well as inhibiting the liver stage development of the malarial life cycle. The compounds 2b (IC50: 165 ng/mL), 3b (IC50: 186 ng/mL), 5c (IC50: 159 ng/mL) and 5d (IC50: 93.5 ng/mL) emerged as lead molecules that inhibit liver stage Plasmodium berghei and are significantly more potent than chloroquine (IC50: >2000 ng/mL) and mefloquine (IC50: >2000 ng/mL) in this screen. All the compounds that showed potent inhibitory activity against the P. berghei liver stage were nontoxic to human HepG2 liver cells (IC50: >2000 ng/mL). The compounds 5a and 5b exhibit comparable metabolic stability as chloroquine and mefloquine in human plasma and the most potent compound 5d demonstrated suitable permeability characteristics using the MDCK monolayer. These results emphasize the value of 3,5-bis(benzylidene)-4-piperidones as novel antimalarials for further drug development.  相似文献

Objective: High-dose glucocorticoids (HDG) are used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Glucocorticoids-induced hyperglycemia (GIH) is often described in elderly patients. In young patients with autoimmune diseases, however, the risk for GIH has not been well characterized.Methods: We recruited 24 inpatients (median age, 32 years; interquartile range, 25–42) with exacerbations of autoimmune diseases, receiving 1 to 2 mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent methylprednisone. Fourteen subjects were naïve to glucocorticoids (group 1) and 10 subjects were on glucocorticoid maintenance (≤15 mg/day prednisone at least 3 months) (group 2) prior to HDG. All subjects were monitored by continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) for 3 days.Results: GIH developed in 21 (91%) subjects, 11/13 in group 1 and 10/10 in group 2. The main peak of glucose excursion (128.7 ± 6.4 mg/dL, group 1; 143.9 ± 10.0 mg/dL, group 2) occurred at 2 to 3 pm. Another peak occurred before sleep. Two-hour mean postprandial glucose levels were normal in both groups: breakfast, 105.0 ± 28.4 versus 125.6 ± 24.4 mg/dL, P = .065; lunch, 115.7 ± 21.1 versus 135.9 ± 29.0 mg/dL, P = .082; dinner, 122.8 ± 18.5 versus 137.8 ± 26.4 mg/dL, P = .144 in groups 1 and 2, respectively. There was a positive association between pretreatment hemoglobin A1C and peak glucose levels (P<.0001). Notably, 35% of our subjects experienced early morning hypoglycemia (65.2 ± 2.8 mg/dL).Conclusion: In hospitalized young patients with auto-immune diseases, CGMS data revealed that short-term consistent HDG treatment induced mild hyperglycemia, peaking in the early afternoon and before sleep. Early morning hypoglycemia was found in 35%.Abbreviations: A1C = hemoglobin A1C; AUC = the area under the curve; BG = blood glucose; BMI = body mass index; CGMS = continuous glucose monitoring system; DM = diabetes mellitus; FBG = fasting blood glucose; GA = glycated albumin; GCs = glucocorticoids; GIH = glucocorticoids-induced hyperglycemia; HDG = high-dose glucocorticoids; HOMA-IR = Homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance; IG = interstitial glucose; IQR = interquartile range; PUMCH = Peking Union Medical College Hospital; SLE = systemic lupus erythematosus  相似文献

In an attempt to design novel 5-HT1A agonists/partial agonists, based on an arylpiperazine nucleus, a series of N-{4-[4-(aryl)piperazine-1-yl]-phenyl}-amine derivatives were synthesized and biologically tested. The anxiolytic effect of the compounds was investigated employing the Elevated plus Maze (EPM) task. On the basis of in vivo functional test, compound 1c (3 mg/kg) and 4c (3 mg/kg) induced significant increments in open arm entries and time on EPM as compared to Buspirone. The anxiolytic effects of compounds 1c and 4c were effectively antagonized by WAY-100635, a 5-HT1A receptor antagonist (0.5 mg/kg). Furthermore, we have also evaluated the concentration of 5-HT in the brain tissue using HPLC with fluorescent detection. Our result showed that serotonin levels were significantly decreased by ~38% (p < 0.001) and ~32% (p < 0.001) after acute administration of compounds 1c and 4c, respectively. These findings suggest that the anxiolytic like activity of these new arylpiperazines is mediated via 5-HT1A receptors in the brain.  相似文献

Structure modifications of lupeol at the isopropylene moiety have been described via allylic oxidation using selenium dioxide. The antidiabetic efficacy of lupeol analogues were evaluated in vitro as glucose uptake stimulatory effect in L6 skeletal muscle cells. From all tested compounds, 2, 3, 4b and 6b showed significant stimulation of glucose uptake with respective percent stimulation of 173.1 (p <0.001), 114.1 (p <0.001), 98.3 (p <0.001) and 107.3 (p <0.001) at 10 μM concentration. Stimulation of glucose uptake by these compounds is associated with enhanced translocation of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) and activation of IRS-1/PI3-K/AKT-dependent signaling pathway in L6 cells. Structure–activity relationship analysis of these analogues demonstrated that the integrity of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl and acetyl moieties were important in the retention of glucose uptake stimulatory effect. It is therefore proposed that naturally occurring lupeol and their analogues might reduce blood glucose, at least in part, through stimulating glucose utilization by skeletal muscles.  相似文献

In the present study, fifteen novel 3-(6-methoxy-3,4-dihydroquinolin-1(2H)-yl)-1-(piperazin-1-yl)propan-1-one (6a-o) derivatives were designed as inhibitor of HIV-1 RT using ligand based drug design approach and in-silico evaluated for drug-likeness properties. Designed compounds were synthesized, characterized and in-vitro evaluated for RT inhibitory activity against wild HIV-1 RT strain. Among the tested compounds, four compounds (6a, 6b, 6j and 6o) exhibited significant inhibition of HIV-1 RT (IC50  10 μg/ml). All synthesized compounds were also evaluated for anti-HIV-1 activity as well as cytotoxicity on T lymphocytes, in which compounds 6b and 6l exhibited significant anti-HIV activity (EC50 values 4.72 and 5.45 μg/ml respectively) with good safety index.Four compounds (6a, 6b, 6j and 6o) found significantly active against HIV-1 RT in the in-vitro assay were in-silico evaluated against two mutant RT strains as well as one wild strain. Further, titled compounds were evaluated for in-vitro antibacterial (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas putida, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus) and antifungal (Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger) activities.  相似文献

Synthesis of new 6-ureido-4-anilinoquinazolines have been accomplished and their in vitro antimalarial activity against chloroquine-sensitive P. falciparum have been examined. Out of 64 compounds evaluated, the IC50 of 16 compounds which have displayed MIC of 0.25 μg/mL were also recorded. One of the compounds (24g) had IC50 value of 2.27 ng/mL which was equipotent to the standard drug chloroquine used in the bioassay. The in vivo evaluation of a few compounds among the series led to discovery of one analog (30g) displaying 40% curative activity (28 days) against mdr P. yoeilli nigeriensis at an oral dose of 100 mg/kg × 4days.  相似文献

Clostridium perfringens is a Gram-positive spore-forming bacterium that causes food poisoning. The neuraminidase (NA) protein of C. perfringens plays a pivotal role in bacterial proliferation and is considered a novel antibacterial drug target. Based on screens for novel NA inhibitors, a 95% EtOH extract of Corydalis turtschaninovii rhizome showed NA inhibitory activity (68% at 30 μg/ml), which resulted in the isolation of 10 isoquinoline alkaloids; namely, palmatine (1), berberine (2), coptisine (3), pseudodehydrocorydaline (4), jatrorrhizine (5), dehydrocorybulbine (6), pseudocoptisine (7), glaucine (8), corydaline (9) and tetrahydrocoptisine (10). Interestingly, seven quaternary isoquinoline alkaloids 17 (IC50 = 12.8 ± 1.5 to 65.2 ± 4.5 μM) showed stronger NA inhibitory activity than the tertiary alkaloids 810. In addition, highly active compounds 1 and 2 showed reversible non-competitive behavior based on a kinetic study. Molecular docking simulations using the Autodock 4.2 software increased our understanding of receptor–ligand binding of these compounds. In addition, we demonstrated that compounds 1 and 2 suppressed bacterial growth.  相似文献

Three new xanthones, pedunxanthones D-F (1–3), along with ten known compounds, were isolated from a chloroform extract of the pericarp of Garcinia pedunculata. Their structures were determined using spectroscopic techniques. Cytotoxicity against HeLa and NCI-H460 cells of the isolated compounds using an SRB assay was evaluated with pedunxanthone D (1) as the most active compound (IC50 24.9 ± 0.4 and 26.1 ± 1.5 μg/ml, respectively).  相似文献

The leaves of Dilobeia thouarsii (Roemer and Schulte), a tree that is endemic to Madagascar (Proteaceae), are used in traditional Malagasy medicine to treat bacterial skin infections and wounds. This study investigated the in vitro antibacterial activities of D. thouarsii leaf extracts and identified the bioactive compounds with the aim of providing a scientific basis for its use against skin diseases. Using broth microdilution method for leaf crude extract and its compounds, we investigated inhibition of the growth of Bacillus cereus, Bacillus megaterium, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Vibrio harveyi, Vibrio fisheri, Salmonella Typhimurium, Salmonella antarctica, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The two purified phenolic compounds from leaf ethyl acetate extracts (1, 2) were found to be more active than the crude extract itself. The structure of the two compounds was elucidated by NMR and mass spectrometry: compound 1 was identified as 4-aminophenol and compound 2 as 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde. A marked inhibitory effect (MIC < 0.1 mg/ml) was found against S. aureus, which is a major agent in skin infections. We observed moderate activities (MIC values of between 0.1 and 0.5 mg/ml) for E. faecalis, Vibrio spp., and Bacillus spp. Neither compound was active against Salmonella spp., E. coli and K. pneumoniae (MICs > 1 mg/ml). To conclude, the high antimicrobial activity of D. thouarsii leaf extracts against S. aureus supports its traditional use to treat skin infections.  相似文献

Novel heteroaryl-containing benzamide derivatives were synthesized and screened using an in vitro assay measuring increases in glucose uptake and glucokinase activity stimulated by 10 mM glucose in rat hepatocytes. From a library of synthesized compounds, 3-(4-methanesulfonylphenoxy)-N-[1-(2-methoxy-ethoxymethyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]-5-(3-methyl pyridin-2-yl)-benzamide (19e) was identified as a potent glucokinase activator with assays demonstrating an EC50 of 315 nM and the induction of a 2.23 fold increase in glucose uptake. Compound 19e exhibited a glucose AUC reduction of 32% (50 mg/kg) in an OGTT study with C57BL/6J mice compared to 28% for metformin (300 mg/kg). Single treatment of the compound in C57BL/J6 and ob/ob mice elicited basal glucose lowering activity, while in a two-week repeated dose study with ob/ob mice, the compound significantly decreased blood glucose levels with no evidence of hypoglycemia risk. In addition, 19e exhibited favorable pharmacokinetic parameters in mice and rats and excellent safety margins in liver and testicular toxicity studies. Compound 19e was therefore selected as a development candidate for the potential treatment of type 2 diabetes.  相似文献

In vitro antituberculosis activities of fractions and pure compounds (120) including seven triterpenes, two alkaloids, two cycloheximide derivatives, two coumarins six sterol derivatives and a long chain alcohol, respectively, isolated from Haloxylon salicornicum were determined against Mycobecterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Actively growing cultures were tested by rapid colorimetric method while the stationary phase cultures were tested by drug exposure methods for bactericidal activity. The MIC values were found to be 50 μg/ml for compounds 15, 19 and 20 where as rest of the compounds invariably showed MIC value of 100 μg/ml against the logarithmic phase culture. These were compare to Isoniazid as a control drug. The compounds exhibited no activity against the stationary phase culture of M. tuberculosis H37Rv up to 200 μg/ml. Further studies are required to investigate the in vivo efficacies and activities of the compounds in combination with antimicrobials that are already being used for TB therapy.  相似文献

The free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFA1/GPR40) is a novel antidiabetic target based on particular mechanism in enhancing glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Most of reported FFA1 agonists, however, have been suffered from relatively high lipophilicity and molecular weight. Aiming to develop potent agonists with improved physicochemical property, 25 compounds containing triazole scaffold and various carboxylic acid fragments were synthesized via the click chemistry. Among them, the optimal lead compound 26 with relatively low lipophicity (Log D7.4 = 1.95) and molecular weight (Mw = 391.78) exhibited a considerable FFA1 agonistic activity (36.15%). In addition, compound 26 revealed a significant improvement in the glucose tolerance with a 21.4% and 14.2% reduction of glucose AUC0–2h in normal ICR mice and type 2 diabetic C57BL/6 mice, respectively. All of these results demonstrated that compound 26 was considered to be a promising lead compound suitable for further optimization.  相似文献

Flemingia philippinensis is used as a foodstuff or medicinal plant in the tropical regions of China. The methanol (95%) extract of the roots of this plant showed potent tyrosinase inhibition (80% inhibition at 30 μg/ml). Activity-guided isolation yielded six polyphenols that inhibited both the monophenolase (IC50 = 1.01–18.4 μM) and diphenolase (IC50 = 5.22–84.1 μM) actions of tyrosinase. Compounds 16 emerged to be three new polyphenols and three known flavanones, flemichin D, lupinifolin and khonklonginol H. The new compounds (13) were identified as dihydrochalcones which we named fleminchalcones (A–C), respectively. The most potent inhibitor, dihydrochalcone (3) showed significant inhibitions against both the monophenolase (IC50 = 1.28 μM) and diphenolase (IC50 = 5.22 μM) activities of tyrosinase. Flavanone (4) possessing a resorcinol group also inhibited monophenolase (IC50 = 1.79 μM) and diphenolase (IC50 = 7.48 μM) significantly. In kinetic studies, all isolated compounds behaved as competitive inhibitors. Fleminchalcone A was found to have simple reversible slow-binding inhibition against monophenolase.  相似文献

Two new steroidal alkaloids, (20 S)-(bennzamido)-3β-(N,N-dimethyamino)-pregnane (1), and (20 S)-(bennzamido)-pregnane-3-one- (2), and two known steroidal alkaloids, pachysanaximine A (3) and 3β, 20α-diacetamido-5α-pregnane (4) were isolated from the whole plant of Sarcococca saligna. The structures of these compounds were identified with the help of spectroscopic techniques while spectra for known compounds were compared with spectra reported in literature. The immunomodulatory potential of the new compounds were found to be significant and dose dependent. Compound 1 showed inhibition of T cells proliferation at 10 μg/mL (95%), and inhibition of IL-2 production with an IC50 = 1.6 μg/mL.  相似文献
