Tonsil lymphocytes from three adults and three children were examined for immunoglobulin (Ig) production before and after Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) transformation. T-cell depletion was required to obtain cell lines from EBV-seropositive individuals. Cytoplasmic Ig was mainly IgG in adult lymphocytes before and after transformation; IgA and IgM were more prominent after than before. IgM and IgG predominated in lymphocytes of children before and after transformation; IgA was more prominent after than before. Cytoplasmic Ig of peripheral blood lymphocytes from these individuals was mainly IgM. Secreted Ig from tonsil lymphocytes was mainly IgA or IgG; after transformation IgM predominated with adult cell lines, and IgG or IgM with cell lines from children. IgE was consistently sparse in spite of ragweed and/or grass allergies of the adults. 相似文献

The fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis metabolized linoleic acid extensively to (8R)-hydroperoxylinoleic acid, (8R)-hydroxylinoleic acid, and threo-(7S,8S)-dihydroxylinoleic acid. When G. graminis was incubated with linoleic acid under an atmosphere of oxygen-18, the isotope was incorporated into (8R)-hydroxylinoleic acid and 7,8-dihydroxylinoleic acid. The two hydroxyls of the latter contained either two oxygen-18 or two oxygen-16 atoms, whereas a molecular species that contained both oxygen isotopes was formed in negligible amounts. Glutathione peroxidase inhibited the biosynthesis of 7,8-dihydroxylinoleic acid. These findings demonstrated that the diol was formed from (8R)-hydroperoxylinoleic acid by intramolecular hydroxylation at carbon 7, catalyzed by a hydroperoxide isomerase. The (8R)-dioxygenase appeared to metabolize substrates with a saturated carboxylic side chain and a 9Z-double bond. G. graminis also formed omega 2- and omega 3-hydroxy metabolites of the fatty acids. In addition, linoleic acid was converted to small amounts of nearly (65% R) racemic 10-hydroxy-8,12-octadecadienoic acid by incorporation of atmospheric oxygen. An unstable metabolite, 11-hydroxylinoleic acid, could also be isolated as well as (13R,13S)-hydroxy-(9E,9Z), (11E)-octadecadienoic acids and (9R,9S)-hydroxy-(10E), (12E,12Z)-octadecadienoic acids. In summary, G. graminis contains a prominent linoleic acid (8R)-dioxygenase, which differs from the lipoxygenase family of dioxygenases by catalyzing the formation of a hydroperoxide without affecting the double bonds of the substrate. 相似文献

The (S,S,S,R,S,R)-configurated cyclohexadepsipeptides (CHDPs) represent novel enniatin derivatives with strong in vivo activity against the parasitic nematode Haemonchus contortus Rudolphi in sheep. 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis revealed for the major conformation the asymmetric conformer, containing a cis-amide bond between C(alpha) protons of neighbouring 2-hydroxy-(S)-carboxylic acid and N-methyl-(S)-amino acid. The absolute configuration of the novel CHDPs was determined by X-ray crystallography. A correlation between the major conformer and its anthelmintic activity was found. Here, we report on a simple total synthetic pathway for this particular type of CHDPs. 相似文献

The synthesis of (7R,8S)-epoxy-(13R,17R)-trioxolane abietic acid was carried out and its structure was established by X-ray diffraction. The antineoplastic activity and the ability to induce apoptosis that were predicted by a PASS computer system, correlate well with the experimentally found cytotoxic activity towards the MeWo malignant cell line. The results of tests on animals showed that abietic acid and its (7R,8S)-epoxy-(13R,17R)-trioxolane derivative have anti-inflammatory and antiulcer activities in the absence of side effects. 相似文献

Secoisolariciresinol diglucosides (SDGs) (S,S)-SDG-1 (major isomer in flaxseed) and (R,R)-SDG-2 (minor isomer in flaxseed) were synthesized from vanillin via secoisolariciresinol (6) and glucosyl donor 7 through a concise route that involved chromatographic separation of diastereomeric diglucoside derivatives (S,S)-8 and (R,R)-9. Synthetic (S,S)-SDG-1 and (R,R)-SDG-2 exhibited potent antioxidant properties (EC50 = 292.17 ± 27.71 μM and 331.94 ± 21.21 μM, respectively), which compared well with that of natural (S,S)-SDG-1 (EC50 = 275.24 ± 13.15 μM). These values are significantly lower than those of ascorbic acid (EC50 = 1129.32 ± 88.79 μM) and α-tocopherol (EC50 = 944.62 ± 148.00 μM). Compounds (S,S)-SDG-1 and (R,R)-SDG-2 also demonstrated powerful scavenging activities against hydroxyl [natural (S,S)-SDG-1: 3.68 ± 0.27; synthetic (S,S)-SDG-1: 2.09 ± 0.16; synthetic (R,R)-SDG-2: 1.96 ± 0.27], peroxyl [natural (S,S)-SDG-1: 2.55 ± 0.11; synthetic (S,S)-SDG-1: 2.20 ± 0.10; synthetic (R,R)-SDG-2: 3.03 ± 0.04] and DPPH [natural (S,S)-SDG-1: EC50 = 83.94 ± 2.80 μM; synthetic (S,S)-SDG-1: EC50 = 157.54 ± 21.30 μM; synthetic (R,R)-SDG-2: EC50 = 123.63 ± 8.67 μM] radicals. These results confirm previous studies with naturally occurring (S,S)-SDG-1 and establish both (S,S)-SDG-1 and (R,R)-SDG-2 as potent antioxidants and free radical scavengers for potential in vivo use. 相似文献

The expression patterns of adenosine A(1) receptors (A(1)Rs), adenosine deaminase (ADA) and ADA binding protein (CD26) were studied in goldfish brain using mammalian monoclonal antibody against A(1)R and polyclonal antibodies against ADA and CD26. Western blot analysis revealed the presence of a band of 35 kDa for A(1)R in membrane preparations and a band of 43 kDa for ADA in both cytosol and membranes. Immunohistochemistry on goldfish brain slices showed that A(1) receptors were present in several neuronal cell bodies diffused in the telencephalon, cerebellum, optic tectum. In the rhombencephalon, large and medium sized neurons of the raphe nucleus showed a strong immunopositivity. A(1)R immunoreactivity was also present in the glial cells of the rhombencephalon and optic tectum. An analogous distribution was observed for ADA immunoreactivity. Tests for the presence of CD26 gave positive labelling in several populations of neurons in the rhombencephalon as well as in the radial glia of optic tectum, where immunostaining for ADA and A(1)R was observed. In goldfish astrocyte cultures the immunohistochemical staining of A(1)R, ADA and CD26, performed on the same cell population, displayed a complete overlapping distribution of the three antibodies. The parallel immunopositivity, at least in some discrete neuronal areas, for A(1)Rs, ADA and CD26 led us to hypothesize that a co-localization among A(1)R, ecto-ADA and CD26 also exists in the neurons of goldfish since it has been established to exist in the neurons of mammals. Moreover, we have demonstrated for the first time, that A(1)R, ecto-ADA and CD26 co-localization is present on the astroglial component of the goldfish brain. This raises the possibility that a similar situation is also shown in the glia of the mammalian brain. 相似文献

Adenosine deaminase and adenosine deaminase complexing protein have been localized in rabbit brain. Brains fixed in paraformaldehyde or in Clarke's solution were blocked coronally. Blocks from brains fixed in paraformaldehyde were either frozen in liquid nitrogen or embedded in paraffin. Tissue fixed in Clarke's solution was embedded in paraffin. Sections from each block were stained by the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method for adenosine deaminase or complexing protein using affinity-purified goat antibodies. Adenosine deaminase and complexing protein did not co-localize. Adenosine deaminase was detected in oligodendroglia and in endothelial cells lining blood vessels, whereas complexing protein was concentrated in neurons. The subcellular location and appearance of the peroxidase reaction product associated with individual cells was also quite distinctive. The cell bodies of adenosine deaminase-positive oligodendroglia were filled with intense deposits of peroxidase reaction product. In contrast to oligodendroglia, the reaction product associated with most neurons stained for complexing protein was concentrated in granular-appearing cytoplasmic deposits. In some instances, these deposits were clustered about the nuclear membrane. Staining of neurons in the granular layer of cerebellum was an exception. Granule cells were lightly outlined by peroxidase reaction product. Cerebellar islands, also referred to as glomeruli, were stained an intense uniform brown. These results raise the possibility that oligodendroglia and blood vessel endothelia, through the action of adenosine deaminase, might play a role in controlling the concentration of extracellular adenosine in brain. They do not, however, support the suggestion that complexing protein aids in adenosine metabolism by positioning adenosine deaminase on the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Adenosine and eight modified adenine nucleosides in the presence or in the absence of adenosine deaminase (ADA) inhibitors, 2′-deoxycoformycin or erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl) adenine, were investigated with regard to their effects on phytohemagglutinin-stimulated human lymphocytes in vitro. Protein and DNA synthesis were inhibited depending upon the specific nucleoside, presence or absence of ADA inhibitor, and time of addition of nucleoside to cultures. A possible role for the modified adenine nucleosides in causing in vivo immunodeficiency is proposed. 相似文献

Total synthesis of the (R,R,R)- and (S,S,S)-enantiomers of the natural product schweinfurthin F has been completed. Comparisons of spectral data and optical rotations with those reported for the natural product, as well as a variety of bioassay data, allow assignment of the natural material as the (R,R,R)-isomer. 相似文献

Alexidine is in everyday human use as oral disinfectant and contact lens disinfectant. It is used as a mixture of stereoisomers. Since all of alexidine’s known biological targets are chiral, the biological activity of any of its chiral stereoisomers could be significantly higher than that of the mixture of stereoisomers. This makes a synthetic methodology for obtaining the individual enantiomers of the chiral diastereoisomer highly desirable. Here, we describe the first synthesis of both enantiomers of alexidine in high enantiomeric purity, and demonstrate their activity against the protein–protein interaction between the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-xL and the pro-apoptotic protein Bak. 相似文献

The Henry reaction with the easily available alpha-d-xylo-pentodialdose afforded a diastereomeric mixture of nitroaldoses with the alpha-d-gluco- and beta-l-ido-configuration, respectively, in good yield. When n-BuLi was used as the base, the reaction afforded the alpha-d-gluco-nitroaldose as the only product. The reduction of the nitro group in the alpha-d-gluco- and beta-l-ido-nitroaldoses, removal of the protecting groups and intramolecular reductive cyclo-amination afforded the corresponding (2S,3R,4R,5R) and (2S,3R,4R,5S) tetrahydroxyazepanes. 相似文献

A murine adenosine deaminase (ADA) gene, driven by the maize ubi-1 promoter and intron region, was transformed into embryogenic maize callus, along with a bar and gusA gene-containing plasmid, using microparticle bombardment. Selection in the presence of either the herbicide Basta® or the adenosine analogue 2-deoxyadenosine resulted in transgenic cultures that expressed GUS and accumulated a 41kD protein that immunoprecipated with an ADA-specific polyclonal antibody. ADA enzyme activity was observed in extracts from transgenic callus as well as regenerated plants and progeny. Cultures expressing ADA grew in the presence of 200mg/l 2-deoxyadenosine, a concentration which completely inhibited the growth of non-transgenic cultures. ADA activity appeared to segregate in progeny of regenerated plants as a single, dominant Mendelian trait. These results suggest that ADA, in combination with adenosine analogue selection, represents a potentially viable selectable marker system for transgenic maize production. 相似文献

A convergent stereoselective synthesis of (4R,15R,16R,21S)- and (4R,15S,16S,21S)-rollicosin and squamostolide was accomplished via a Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction. The inhibitory activity of these compounds was examined with bovine heart mitochondrial NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase. These compounds showed a remarkably weak inhibitory activity compared to ordinary acetogenins such as bullatacin. Our results indicate that to maintain potent inhibitory effect, the hydroxylated lactone cannot substitute for the hydroxylated mono- or bis-THF rings with a long alkyl chain that can be seen in ordinary acetogenins. 相似文献

Platelet aggregation and adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity were evaluated in pregnant women living with some disease conditions including hypertension, diabetes mellitus and human immunodeficiency virus infection. The subject population is consisted of 15 non‐pregnant healthy women [control group (CG)], 15 women with normal pregnancy (NP), 7 women with hypertensive pregnancy (HP), 10 women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and 12 women with human immunodeficiency virus‐infected pregnancy (HIP) groups. The aggregation of platelets was checked using an optical aggregometer, and serum ADA activity was determined using the colorimetric method. After the addition of 5 µM of agonist adenosine diphosphate, the percentage of platelet aggregation was significantly (p < 0·05) increased in NP, HP, GDM and HIP groups when compared with the CG, while the addition of 10 µM of the same agonist caused significant (p < 0·05) elevations in HP, GDM and HIP groups when compared with CG. Furthermore, ADA activity was significantly (p < 0·05) enhanced in NP, HP, GDM and HIP groups when compared with CG. In this study, the increased platelet aggregation and ADA activity in pregnancy and pregnancy‐associated diseases suggest that platelet aggregation and ADA activity could serve as peripheral markers for the development of effective therapy in the maintenance of homeostasis and some inflammatory process in these pathophysiological conditions.

The effects of (R)- and (S)-optical isomers of 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)-tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) and of the racemate (R,S)-8-OH-DPAT on serotonin (5-HT) release in the ventral hippocampus of awake rats and on induction of the whole-body hypothermia were studied. Extracellular 5-HT levels were determined by a newly developed high-sensitive HPLC method based on derivatization with benzylamine and fluorescence detection. The basal levels of 5-HT in 20 min microdialysates from rats perfused with Ringer solution or with Ringer solution containing 1 microM citalopram were 6.3 +/- 1.3 fmol/20 microl and 36.1 +/- 4.2 fmol/20 microl (n=20), respectively. The reduction of hippocampal 5-HT levels induced by subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of (R,S)-8-OH-DPAT (0.3 mg/kg) was significantly attenuated by the presence of 5-HT reuptake inhibitor citalopram in Ringer solution only at its peak value at 40 min (maximal reduction to 60% compared to 46% of control values in Ringer-perfused rats), whereas the overall effects were comparable at both experimental conditions. Injection of (R)-8-OH-DPAT (0.3 mg/kg s.c.) caused further reduction of 5-HT levels, to 49% and 41%, respectively, whereas (S)-8-OH-DPAT (0.3 mg/kg s.c.) caused maximal reduction of 5-HT levels only to 74% of controls in both perfusion groups. Similar pattern and time-courses were observed in rats with hypothermia induced by injection of 8-OH-DPAT enantiomers, where (R,S), (R)-forms were about two-times more potent than the (S)-isomer. It is concluded that the acute systemic dose of (R)-, (S)- and (R,S)-8-OH-DPAT enantiomers exerted enantiomer-specific effects on 5-HT(1A) receptor-mediated function both at the presynaptic and postsynaptic sites as revealed by monitoring hippocampal 5-HT levels and body temperature. 相似文献
