Leucine-enkephalin (Leu5-ENK) (35 μg/kg) increased heart rate and mean systemic arterial blood pressure following intravenous injection into chronically-instrumented, conscious dogs. Repeated injections at five-minute intervals were not associated with a diminished response. Naloxone (1 mg/kg) pre-treatment inhibited both heart rate and blood pressure increases. Prazosin (1 mg/kg) attenuated the increase in blood pressure but did not influence the heart rate response. Propranolol (1 mg/kg) attenuated the heart rate response but not the pressor response. Clonidine (30 μg/kg) attenuated the positive chronotropic effect of Leu5-ENK. Atropine (1 mg/kg) plus propranolol (1 mg/kg) blocked the heart rate response but the pressor effect was still present. The attenuation of the heart rate response by propranolol and the pressor response by prazosin suggests an adrenergic component to the enkephalin response; the reduction in the heart rate response by clonidine and atropine-propranolol indicates a role for cholinergic mechanisms in the chronotropic response. Hexamethonium (10 mg/kg) blocked the heart rate response and markedly inhibited the pressor response. Vagal interruption attenuated both heart rate and blood pressure responses. It is concluded that intravenous Leu5-ENK stimulates afferent pathways located in fibers which are contained in the vagosympathetic trunk to reflexly increase heart rate and blood pressure. 相似文献

Cyclic analogues of the β-casein-derived opioid peptide β-casomorphin-5 (H-Tyr-Pro-Phe-Pro-Gly-OH) were prepared through substitution of the Pro2 residue with various ,ω-diamino acid residues (lysine, ornithine, 2,4-diaminobutyric acid) and cyclization of the ω-amino group to the C-terminal carboxyl function. Compounds of this type, with D-configuration at the 2-position residue, showed high opioid receptor affinity with some preference for μ receptors over δ receptors, high potency in the guinea pig ileum assay and considerable activity in the mouse vas deferens assay. Configurational inversion at the 4-position in these cyclic analogues resulted in enhanced affinity for both μ and δ receptors, whereas N-methylation of the Phe3 residue produced a potency decrease. 相似文献

N-benzyloxycarbonyl-protected alpha- or beta-amino alcohols, easily prepared from alpha- and beta-amino acids, were converted into aldehydes and directly reacted with (triphenyl phosphoranylidene) acetonitrile, leading to unsaturated nitriles. Treatment of nitriles with NaN(3) and ZnBr(2) produced unsaturated gamma- and delta-amino tetrazoles, which were deprotected and converted to the corresponding saturated compounds by catalytic hydrogenation. For the case of delta-amino tetrazole, the methylation of the acidic moiety occurred after treatment with CH(2)N(2), leading to the N(1)- and N(2)-methylated constitutional isomers, which were separated by column chromatography and hydrogenated. 相似文献

Heterodimeric compounds H-Dmt-Tic-NH-hexyl-NH-R (R = Dmt, Tic, and Phe) exhibited high affinity to δ- (Kiδ = 0.13–0.89 nM) and μ-opioid receptors (Kiμ = 0.38–2.81 nM) with extraordinary potent δ antagonism (pA2 = 10.2–10.4). These compounds represent the prototype for a new class of structural homologues lacking μ-opioid receptor-associated agonism (IC50 = 1.6–5.8 μM) based on the framework of bis-[H-Dmt-NH]-alkyl (Okada, Y.; Tsuda, Y.; Fujita, Y.; Yokoi, T.; Sasaki, Y.; Ambo, A.; Konishi, R.; Nagata, M.; Salvadori, S.; Jinsmaa, Y.; Bryant, S. D.; Lazarus, L. H. J. Med. Chem. 2003, 46, 3201), which exhibited both high μ affinity and bioactivity. 相似文献

Schmidt, R., D. Menard, C. Mrestani-Klaus, N. N. Chung, C. Lemieux and P. W. Schiller. Structural modifications of the N-terminal tetrapeptide segment of [d-Ala2]deltorphin I: effects on opioid receptor affinities and activities in vitro and on antinociceptive potency. Peptides 18(10) 1615–1621, 1997.—A series of deltorphin I analogs containing d- or l-N-methylalanine (MeAla), d- or l-proline (Pro), α-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib), sarcosine (Sar) or D-tert-leucine (Tle) in place of d-Ala2, or phenylalanine in place of Tyr1, was synthesized. The opioid activity profiles of these peptides were determined in μ and δ opioid receptor-representative binding assays and bioassays in vitro as well as in the rat tail flick test in vivo. In comparison with the deltorphin I parent, both the l- and the d-MeAla2-analog were slightly more potent δ agonists in the mouse vas deferens (MDV) assay, and the d-MeAla2-analog showed two-fold higher antinociceptive potency in the analgesic test. In view of the fact that deltorphin analogs with an unsubstituted l-amino acid residue in the 2-position generally lack opioid activity, the observed high δ opioid potency of [l-MeAla2]deltorphin I is postulated to be due to the demonstrated presence of a conformer with a cis Tyr1-MeAla2 peptide bond, since the cis conformer allows for a spatial arrangement of the pharmacophoric moieties in the N-terminal tripeptide segment similar to that in active deltorphin analogs containing a d-amino acid residue in the 2-position. Substitution of Aib in the 2-position led to a compound, H-Tyr-Aib-Phe-Asp-Val-Val-Gly-NH2, which displayed lower δ receptor affinity than the parent peptide but higher δ selectivity and, surprisingly, three times higher antinociceptive potency. The d- and l- Pro2-, Sar2- and d-Tle2-analogs showed much reduced δ receptor affinities and were inactive in the tail flick test. Replacement of Tyr1 in deltorphin I with Phe produced a 32-fold decrease in δ receptor affinity but only a 7-fold drop in antinociceptive potency. 相似文献

Analogs of Met-enkephalin and [d -Pen2, d -Pen5]enkephalin (DPDPE) containing the partially fluorinated amino acid 4,4-difluoro-2-aminobutyric acid (DFAB) in the 2- or 3-position of the peptide sequence were synthesized and their opioid activities and receptor selectivities were determined in vitro. The linear fluorinated [d -DFAB2, Met5-NH2]enkephalin showed μ and δ agonist potencies comparable to those of natural [Leu5]enkephalin. The partially fluorinated DPDPE analogs behaved differently as compared with their non-fluorinated correlates. While l -amino acid substitution in position 3 of DPDPE usually resulted in higher δ agonist potency than d -amino acid substitution, [d -DFAB3]DPDPE turned out to be a more potent δ agonist than [l -DFAB3]DPDPE. Furthermore, [d -DFAB3]DPDPE showed over 100-fold higher δ agonist potency than [d -Abu3]DPDPE (Abu=2-aminobutyric acid), indicating that the fluorine substituents interact favorably with a δ opioid receptor subsite. © 1998 European Peptide Society and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Recent pharmacological data strongly support the hypothesis of δ receptor subtypes as mediators of both supraspinal and spinal antinociception (δ1 and δ2 receptors). In vitro ligand binding data, which are fully supportive of the in vivo data, are still lacking. A previous study indicated that [3H][
-Ala2,
-Leu5]enkephalin labels two binding sites in membranes depleted of μ binding sites by pretreatment with the site-directed acylating agent, 2-(p-ethoxybenzyl)-1-diethylaminoethyl-5-isothiocyanatobenzimidazole-HCI (BIT). The main goal of the present study was to develop a ligand-selectivity profile of the two δncx binding sites. The data indicated that naltrindole and oxymorphindole were relatively selective for site 1 (20-fold). [
-Ser2,Thr6]Enkephalin and deltorphin-II were only 2.7-fold and 2.2-fold selective for site 1. [
-Pen2,
-Pen5]Enkephalin and deltorphin-I were 80-fold and 38-fold selective for site 2.3-Iodo-Tyr-
-Ala-Gly-Phe-
-Leu was 52-fold selective for site 1. Morphine had moderate affinity for site 1 (Ki = 16 nM), and was about 11-fold selective for site 1. Thus, of the 10 drugs studied, only DPDPE and DELT-I were selective for site 2. Viewed collectively with other data, it is likely that the δ1 receptor and the δncx binding site are synonymous. 相似文献

The pathogenic hemoflagellates of the genera Leishmania and Trypanosoma are major causes of human disease in the tropical and subtropical areas of the world. In general, the agents used to treat diseases caused by these organisms are toxic and not suitable for administration to the millions of people infected. Investigations over the past several years have shown that there are several major differences between man and these protozoans with respect to purine metabolism. The differences appear to offer promise for the development of effective chemotherapeutic compounds. These organisms do not synthesize purines de novo, as does man. They are able to concentrate pyrazolopyrimidines with the cell and metabolize them as purines through the salvage pathways, ultimately incorporating them into nucleic acids. This does not occur in mammals. The pyrazolopyrimidine base allopurinol, which has served as a prototype, is activated by a phosphoribosyltransferase to the ribonucleotide. The ribonucleotide is aminated to the 4-amino-pyrazolopyrimidine ribonucleotide and subsequently phosphorylated to the triphosphate form and incorporated into RNA. The pyrazolopyrimidine ribonucleosides formycin B and allopurinol ribonucleoside are activated through a nucleoside phosphotransferase. The resulting ribonucleotide is aminated and incorporated into RNA as described above. These metabolic peculiarities occur not only in the forms of these parasites which are found in the insect vectors but also in the intracellular forms which are pathogenic in man. The differences in the enzymology and metabolism of purines which exist in the genera Leishmania and Trypanosoma offer excellent opportunities for chemotherapeutic exploitation. 相似文献

The synthesis of new dermorphin analogues is described. The (R)‐alanine or phenylalanine residues of natural dermorphin were substituted by the corresponding α‐methyl‐β‐azidoalanine or α‐benzyl‐β‐azido(1‐piperidinyl)alanine residues. The potency and selectivity of the new analogues were evaluated by a competitive receptor binding assay in rat brain using [3H]DAMGO (a μ ligand) and [3H]DELT (a δ ligand). The most active analogue in this series, Tyr‐(R)‐Ala‐(R)‐α‐benzyl‐β‐azidoAla‐Gly‐Tyr‐Pro‐Ser‐NH2 and its epimer were analysed by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and restrained molecular dynamics simulations. The dominant conformation of the investigated peptides depended on the absolute configuration around Cα in the α‐benzyl‐β‐azidoAla residue in position 3. The (R) configuration led to the formation of a type I β‐turn, whilst switching to the (S) configuration gave rise to an inverse β‐turn of type I′, followed by the formation of a very short β‐sheet. The selectivity of Tyr‐(R)‐Ala‐(R) and (S)‐α‐benzyl‐β‐azidoAla‐Gly‐Tyr‐Pro‐Ser‐NH2 was shown to be very similar; nevertheless, the two analogues exhibited different conformational preferences.

A series of hepta-, hexa-, penta- and tetrapeptide analogues of dermorphin have been evaluated in the rat for antinociceptive activity after subcutaneous (SC) administration at the screening dose of 4 mg/kg. Effective doses (ED50) were calculated for the most active compounds. Presence of spontaneous movements, defecation, micturition and corneal reflex were also recorded. Syntheses and analytical data of new derivatives are briefly reported. 相似文献

In this study, proteinogenic amino acids residues of dimeric dermorphin pentapeptides were replaced by the corresponding β3‐homo‐amino acids. The potency and selectivity of hybrid α/β dimeric dermorphin pentapeptides were evaluated by competetive receptor binding assay in the rat brain using [3H]DAMGO (a μ ligand) and [3H]DELT (a δ ligand). Tha analog containing β3‐homo‐Tyr in place of Tyr (Tyr‐d ‐Ala‐Phe‐Gly‐β3‐homo‐Tyr‐NH‐)2 showed good μ receptor affinity and selectivity (IC50 = 0.302, IC50 ratio μ/δ = 68) and enzymatic stability in human plasma.

We investigated the effect of β-endorphin on the activities of mitogen-activated protein kinases in cultured human articular chondrocytes in order to elucidate its effect on cartilage. Monolayer cultures of chondrocytes obtained from patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty were treated with 60, 600, or 6000 ng/ml β-endorphin, or 100 ng/ml naltrexone combined with 600 ng/ml β-endorphin. The regulation of three major mitogen-activated protein kinases phosphorylation, ERKp44/p42, p38, and JNK, was determined by Western blotting. We also examined the influence of specific mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitors on IL-1β protein levels during β-endorphin stimulation. The results demonstrate that β-endorphin, dependent on concentration and duration of stimulation, significantly affected the activation of the three mitogen-activated protein kinases in cultured human articular chondrocytes. Naltrexone in some cases significantly regulated the mitogen-activated protein kinases in different ways when added to β-endorphin 600 ng/ml. Furthermore, specific mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitors hindered the increase of IL-1β during β-endorphin incubation. The effect of β-endorphin seen in this study is considered critical for the production of several mediators of cartilage damage in an arthritic joint. 相似文献

With the aim of producing long-acting analogs of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), four analogs, containing -X(6) (aa)psi(CH(2)SO(2)NH)-Leu(7) building unit (X(aa)=Gly, Ala, Val or Phe), and a reduced-size analog [Des-Tyr(5)]-GnRH which includes the unit Phe(5)psi(CH(2)SO(2)NH)-Leu(6), and [beta-Ala(6)]-GnRH were synthesized. The peptides were evaluated for their capacity to induce LH-release from rat pituitary cells and to withstand proteolysis by pituitary-derived enzymes, compared with the parent peptide GnRH. Albeit stable toward enzymatic degradation, the sulfonamido containing peptides were only marginally bioactive. [beta-Ala(6)]-GnRH, however, induced LH-release and bound to pituitary receptors nearly as efficiently as GnRH. This analog was also highly stable toward proteolysis suggesting that it may serve as a long-acting GnRH-analog. 相似文献

The molecular docking of a series of endomorphin analog with the μ opioid receptor was performed. The successive molecular dynamics of several proposed ligand–receptor complexes inserted into the phospholipid bilayer were carried out to optimize the complex and explore the conformational changes. Meaningful differences of their binding modes were detected and the involvement of some essential residues in ligand binding was also identified. Our proposed ligand–receptor model is in good agreement with previous site-directed mutagenesis experiments. 相似文献

δ Opioid receptors were identified in human melanomas by RT-PCR and radioligand binding. In all tumors an additional PCR amplificate was detected in which 144 bp within the third exon were deleted. This fragment corresponded to the third cytoplasmic domain of the receptor protein. The short variant resulted from atypical mRNA processing. There were no common splice recognition sequences around the deleted fragment; instead its excision resembled the removal of a transposon. The deletion was not detected in normal human melanocytes nor in human or rat brain. However, it was present in a human neuroblastoma cell line (SH-SY5Y). Thus, it appears that the occurrence of the short δ opioid receptor is correlated to malignancy. 相似文献

The expression of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) receptors on normal human B cells and four B cell lines was studied. Recombinant human IFN-gamma was labeled with [gamma-32P]ATP using the catalytic subunit of a cAMP-dependent protein kinase. All four B cell lines, although differing in their responsiveness to IFN-gamma, were found to express high-affinity receptors (1,000-11,000 receptors/cell). Normal unactivated B lymphocytes were also found to express constitutively high-affinity receptors, approximately 1,400 receptors per cell with an estimated affinity of 295 pM. Activation of the normal B cells in vitro with the polyclonal B cell activator, Staphylococcus aureus Cowan strain I (SAC), resulted in a slight decline in receptor number and a more pronounced fall in receptor density. One of the B cell lines and unactivated normal B cells were shown to internalize labeled IFN-gamma rapidly. Chemical cross-linking of 32P-IFN-gamma to the CB B cell line and to freshly isolated B lymphocytes revealed one major cross-linked receptor-ligand complex which had an estimated molecular weight of approximately 110 kilodaltons. This complex corresponded to a 93 kD receptor cross-linked to recombinant IFN-gamma. Our data indicate that normal B lymphocytes constitutively express an approximately 93 kD IFN-gamma receptor which is similar to the receptor present on Epstein-Barr virus-transformed B cell lines. 相似文献

Carbon ((13)C/(12)C) and nitrogen ((15)N/(14)N) stable isotope ratios were longitudinally measured in fingernail and hair samples from mother-infant pairs where infants were exclusively breastfed (n = 5), breast- and formula-fed (n = 2), or exclusively formula-fed (n = 1) from birth. All exclusively breastfed infants had a dual enrichment in carbon ( approximately 1 per thousand) and nitrogen ( approximately 2-3 per thousand) when compared to maternal values. In contrast, breast- and formula-fed subjects had reduced enrichments compared to exclusively breastfed subjects, and the exclusively formula-fed infant showed no increase in delta(13)C or delta(15)N values. This finding of a carbon trophic level effect in breastfeeding infants suggests that (13)C-enrichments of approximately 1 per thousand in archaeological populations are not necessarily the result of the consumption of C(4)-based weaning foods such as maize or millet. During the weaning process, the delta(13)C results for breastfed infants declined to maternal levels more rapidly than the delta(15)N results. This suggests that delta(13)C values have the potential to track the introduction of solid foods into the diet, whereas delta(15)N values monitor the length of time of breast milk consumption. These findings can be used to refine the isotopic analysis of breastfeeding and weaning patterns in past and modern populations. 相似文献

Only limited information is available on the stereochemistry of the in vivo distribution of beta-receptor-blocking drugs. In this study we determined the levels of the propranolol enantiomers in plasma, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and central nervous system (CNS), and peripheral tissues in the dog following an intravenous dose of a deuterium-labeled pseudoracemate. The appearance of the propranolol enantiomers in the CSF was rapid and nonstereoselective, with maximum concentrations reached at 15 min after dosing. The levels of the enantiomers in both CSF and plasma then declined in a parallel biphasic fashion, with a terminal t1/2 of about 125 min. Except for an early high CSF/plasma concentration ratio of 0.35, the CSF propranolol levels corresponded to the unbound concentration in plasma, CSF/plasma 0.20. All areas of the brain showed a similar uptake of propranolol, with a tissue concentration exceeding that in plasma about 10-fold during the terminal phase of elimination. The uptake of propranolol by peripheral tissues varied widely, ranging from a 50-fold accumulation by the lungs compared to plasma to no accumulation by adipose tissue. However, as for the CSF, there was no evidence of stereoselective uptake of propranolol by any CNS or peripheral tissue except for the liver. A significantly higher level of (+)-vs. (-)-propranolol in liver tissue presumably was a reflection of stereoselective hepatic metabolism of (-)-propranolol by this tissue. The slight stereoselectivity in plasma binding of propranolol known to exist in the dog had no significant influence on tissue or CSF distribution. 相似文献

Receptors for the Fc domains of IgG (Fc γ R) play a critical role in linking humoral and cellular immune responses. The various Fc γ R genes may contribute to differences in infectious and immune related diseases in various ethnic populations. Polymorphisms of Fc γ R mainly Fc γ R IIA, IIB, IIIA, IIIB have been identified as genetic factors influencing susceptibility to disease or disease course of a prototype autoimmune disease like Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Activated and inhibitory Fc γ Rs seem to play an important role in the pathogenesis of SLE, in initiation of autoimmunity, the subsequent development of inflammatory lesions and finally immune clearance mechanisms. This review focuses on the role of Fc γ R polymorphism and their association with clinical manifestations and initiation of autoantibody production, inflammatory handling of immune complexes and disease development in SLE patients. 相似文献
