The development of small molecules as P-gp modulating agents and SAR studies on these ligands represented the aim of the present work. A series of 6,7-dimethoxytetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives was prepared and their ability to inhibit P-gp activity has been evaluated. The basic nucleus of these compounds, common to the best P-gp inhibitors such as Tariquidar and Elacridar, has been functionalized with no-basic moiety from our studied sigma receptor ligands displaying potent P-gp inhibition. The best results were obtained for compounds 3c and 3a (EC(50)=1.64 and 4.86 microM, respectively) and these results were remarkable because Elacridar showed in the same biological evaluation similar inhibitory activity (EC(50)=2 microM). SAR studies displayed that the removal of double bond on the spacer or its shifting into tetraline ring decreased the P-gp inhibiting activity. Moreover, the P-gp inhibition mechanism of tested compounds was investigated by three selected biological experiments. The results displayed that only compound 3c was P-gp inhibitor as Elacridar, while compound 3a and reference compounds Cyclosporin A and Verapamil modulated P-gp activity saturating the efflux pump as substrates. Flow cytometry studies carried out in Doxorubicin resistant breast cancer cell line (MCF7/Adr) confirmed that compound 3c increased Doxorubicin cell accumulation 5.7-fold. In addition, in MCF7/Adr, antiproliferative effect of 5 microM Doxorubicin shifted from 5% to 95% when co-administered with compound 3c (20 microM). The present study suggested a new class of small molecules displaying P-gp inhibitor activity differing from reference compounds Elacridar and Tariquidar for a simplified, and in the meantime, efficacious no-basic moiety. 相似文献

Starting from lead compound 1 (EC(50)=1.64 microM), its non-basic nucleus has been conformationally restricted by 4-biphenyl and 2-naphthyl moieties. In each series we investigated if the presence of H-bond donor or acceptor substituents, the basicity and the lipophilicity (clogP) were correlated with the P-gp inhibiting activity of tested compounds. In the biphenyl series, derivative 4d displayed the best results (EC(50)=0.05 microM). The corresponding amide 3d was found less active (EC(50)=3.5 microM) ascertaining the importance of basicity in this series whilst the presence of hydroxy or methoxy substituents seems to be negligible. In the naphthyl series, both the basicity and the presence of H-bond donor or acceptor groups seem to be negligible. Moreover, the lipophilicity did not influence the P-gp inhibition activity of each series. Specific biological assays have been carried out to establish the P-gp interacting mechanism of tested compounds discriminating between substrates and inhibitors. Moreover, compound 4d displayed a potent P-gp inhibition activity with good selectivity towards BCRP pump. 相似文献

A series of 6-aryl-2,4-dioxo-5-hexenoic acids, were synthesized and tested against HIV-1 in cell-based assays and against recombinant HIV-1 integrase (rIN) in enzyme assays. Compound 8a showed potent antiretroviral activity (EC(50)=1.5 microM) and significant inhibition against rIN (strand transfer: IC(50)=7.9 microM; 3'-processing: IC(50)=7.0 microM). A preliminary molecular modeling study was carried out to compare the spatial conformation of 8a with those of L-731988 (4) and 5CITEP (7) in the IN core. 相似文献

A new series of heterobase-modified 2'-C-methyl ribonucleosides was synthesized and tested as inhibitors of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA replication. The nucleosides showed a weak inhibitory activity in a HCV replicon system (EC(50)=92 microM) and did not exhibit any cytotoxicity (CC(50)>300 microM). Cyclic monophosphate (cMP) prodrugs of the same nucleosides were synthesized and also tested in the HCV replicon system. Prodrugs exhibited strong potency (EC(50)=0.008 microM) without significant cytotoxicity (CC(50)>50 microM). 相似文献

In order to identify new subtype-selective (S)-glutamate (Glu) receptor ligands we have synthesized (RS)-2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-1,2,5-thiadiazol-4-yl)propionic acid [(RS)-TDPA]. Resolution of (RS)-TDPA by chiral chromatography was performed using a Crownpac CR(+) column affording (R)- and (S)-TDPA of high enantiomeric purity (enantiomeric excess=99.9%). An X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed that the early eluting enantiomer has R-configuration. Both enantiomers showed high affinity as well as high agonist activity at (RS)-2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazol-4-yl)propionic acid (AMPA) receptors, determined using a [(3)H]AMPA binding assay and an electrophysiological model, respectively. The affinities and agonist activities obtained for (R)-TDPA (IC(50)=0.265 microM and EC(50)=6.6 microM, respectively) and (S)-TDPA (IC(50)=0.065 microM and EC(50)=20 microM, respectively) revealed a remarkably low AMPA receptor stereoselectivity, (S)-TDPA showing the highest affinity and (R)-TDPA the most potent agonist activity. In addition, (S)-TDPA was shown to interact with synaptosomal Glu uptake sites displacing [(3)H](R)-aspartic acid (IC(50 ) approximately 390 microM). An enantiospecific and subtype-selective agonist activity was observed for (S)-TDPA at group I metabotropic Glu (mGlu) receptors (EC(50)=13 microM at mGlu(5) and EC(50)=95 microM at mGlu(1)). 相似文献

Several series of dihydrostilbenamide, imidazo[2,1-a]isoindole, pyrimido[2,1-a]isoindole and phthalazinone derivatives were obtained and their vasorelaxant activity was measured on isolated rat aorta rings pre-contracted with phenylephrine (10(-5)M). Some phthalazinones attained, practically, the total relaxation of the organ at micromolar concentrations. For the most potent compound 9h (EC(50)=0.43microM) the affinities for alpha(1A), alpha(1B) and alpha(1D) adrenergic sub-receptors were determined. 相似文献

Numerous synthetic FP-class prostaglandin (PG) analogs stimulated the contraction of isolated non-pregnant female rat uterus in a concentration-dependent manner with the following agonist potencies: bimatoprost acid (17-phenyl-trinor PGF(2alpha); EC(50)=0.68+/-0.06 nM)=cloprostenol (EC(50)=0.73+/-0.01 nM)>travoprost acid (EC(50)=1.3+/-0.07 nM)>latanoprost acid (EC(50)=2.7+/-0.08 nM)>PGF(2alpha) (EC(50)=52+/-11 nM)>unoprostone (UF-021; EC(50)=310+/-101 nM)>S-1033 (EC(50)=610+/-4 nM)>bimatoprost (EC(50)=1130+/-173 nM). The FP-receptor antagonist, AL-8810, antagonized the contractile effects of PGF(2alpha) (K(i)=2.9+/-0.2 microM), travoprost acid (K(i)=0.6+/-0.1 microM) and bimatoprost (K(i)=0.2+/-0.02 microM). Agonist and antagonist potencies for rat uterus contraction by these PGs compared well with their potencies for inducing/blocking functional responses in other systems (r=0.83-0.94) except with bovine iris sphincter (r=0.2; p<0.7). In conclusion, the rat uterus contains functionally active FP-receptors whose activation by a variety of free acid and an amide forms of synthetic PGs leads to the contraction of this tissue and which can be pharmacologically blocked by an FP-receptor antagonist, AL-8810. 相似文献

A novel series of 2-arylcarbonylmethylthio-6-arylmethylpyrimidin-4(3H)-ones have been synthesized and evaluated for in vitro anti-HIV activities in MT-4 cells. Most of these new compounds showed moderate to potent activities against wild-type HIV-1 with an EC(50) range from 8.97 microM to 0.010 microM. Among them, the 6-(3,5-dimethylbenzyl) analogue 5p was identified as the most promising compound (EC(50)=0.010 microM, SI>31,800) associated with moderate activity against the HIV-1 double mutant RT strain K103N+Y181C. The structure-activity relationships of these new congeners were further discussed. 相似文献

Adenosine A(3) receptors are reported to couple negatively to adenylyl cyclase (AC) but their mediation of anti-inflammatory effects in human eosinophils prompted us to investigate their coupling to AC. The A(3)-selective agonists IB-MECA and Cl-IB-MECA evoked a concentration-dependent generation of cAMP (EC(50), 3.2 and 1.8 microM, respectively) and were more potent than the A(2A) agonist CGS 21680 (EC(50)=15.4 microM) and adenosine (EC(50)=19.2 microM). The cAMP response was additive to that produced by forskolin (10 microM). The effect of IB-MECA was insensitive to A(1) and A(2A) receptor antagonists, but was antagonized by the A(3)-selective antagonist MRS 1220 (0.1-2.5 microM) in a competitive manner. The estimated K(B) of 190 nM was, however, atypical. The cyclo-oxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin, had no effect on the cAMP response. A general inverse relationship between cAMP generation and inhibition of degranulation was seen. We conclude that in human eosinophils, an atypical form of A(3) receptors positively coupled to AC may exist. The resulting cAMP generation may underlie the anti-inflammatory actions of A(3) agonists in eosinophils. 相似文献

Cantharidin and its analogues have been of considerable interest as potent inhibitors of the serine/threonine protein phosphatases 1 and 2A (PP1 and PP2A). However, limited modifications to the parent compounds is tolerated. As part of an on-going study we have developed a new series of cantharidin analogues, the cantharimides. Inhibition studies indicate that cantharimides possessing a D- or L-histidine, are more potent inhibitors of PP1 and PP2A (PP1 IC(50)=3.22+/-0.7 microM; PP2A IC(50)=0.81+/-0.1 microM and PP1 IC(50)=2.82+/-0.6 microM; PP2A IC(50)=1.35+/-0.3 microM, respectively) than norcantharidin (PP1 IC(50)=5.31+/-0.76 microM; PP2A IC(50)=2.9+/-1.04 microM) and essentially equipotent with cantharidin (PP1 IC(50)=3.6+/-0.42 microM; PP2A IC(50)=0.36+/-0.08 microM). Cantharimides with non-polar or acidic amino acid residues are only poor inhibitors of PP1 and PP2A. 相似文献

Tricyclic isoxazoles were identified from a screen as a novel class of selective multidrug resistance protein (MRP1) inhibitors. From a screen lead, SAR efforts resulted in the preparation of LY 402913 (9h), which inhibits MRP1 and reverses drug resistance to MRP1 substrates, such as doxorubicin, in HeLa-T5 cells (EC(50)=0.90 microM), while showing no inherent cytotoxicity. Additionally, LY 402913 inhibits ATP-dependent, MRP1-mediated LTC(4) uptake into membrane vesicles prepared from the MRP1-overexpressing HeLa-T5 cells (EC(50)=1.8 microM). LY 402913 also shows selectivity ( approximately 22-fold) against the related transporter, P-glycoprotein, in HL60/Adr and HL60/Vinc cells. Finally, when dosed in combination with the oncolytic MRP1 substrate vincristine, LY 402913 delays the growth of MRP1-overexpressing tumors in vivo. 相似文献

Several diverse analogues of Oenostacin, a naturally occurring potent antibacterial phenolic acid derivative, have been synthesized. A small library with more than forty analogues having different aromatic rings and varied side chains has been achieved through solution phase synthesis. Some of these analogues, that is, 22, 23 and 42, possessed potent antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus having EC(50) ranging from 0.49 to 0.67 microM as compared to Oenostacin (EC(50)=0.12 microM). 相似文献

Proper glucocorticoid exposure in utero is vital to normal fetal organ growth and maturation. The human placental 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 enzyme (11 beta-HSD2) catalyzes the unidirectional conversion of cortisol to its inert metabolite cortisone, thereby controlling fetal exposure to maternal cortisol. The present study examined the effect of zinc and the relatively specific sulfhydryl modifying reagent N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) on the activity of 11 beta-HSD2 in human placental microsomes. Enzyme activity, reflected by the rate of conversion of cortisol to cortisone, was inactivated by NEM (IC(50)=10 microM), while the activity was markedly increased by the sulfhydryl protecting reagent dithiothreitol (DTT; EC(50)=1 mM). Furthermore, DTT blocked the NEM-induced inhibition of 11 beta-HSD2 activity. Taken together, these results suggested that the sulfhydryl (SH) group(s) of the microsomal 11 beta-HSD2 may be critical for enzyme activity. Zn(2+) also inactivated enzyme activity (IC(50)=2.5 microM), but through a novel mechanism not involving the SH groups. In addition, prior incubation of human placental microsomes with NAD(+) (cofactor) but not cortisol (substrate) resulted in a concentration-dependent increase (EC(50)=8 microM) in 11 beta-HSD2 activity, indicating that binding of NAD(+) to the microsomal 11 beta-HSD2 facilitated the conversion of cortisol to cortisone. Thus, this finding substantiates the previously proposed concept that a compulsorily ordered ternary complex mechanism may operate for 11 beta-HSD2, with NAD(+) binding first, followed by a conformational change allowing cortisol binding with high affinity. Collectively, the present results suggest that cellular mechanisms of SH group modification and intracellular levels of Zn(2+) may play an important role in regulation of placental 11 beta-HSD2 activity. 相似文献

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most commonly encountered sustained clinical arrhythmia with an estimated 2.3 million cases in the US (2001). A(1) adenosine receptor agonists can slow the electrical impulse propagation through the atrioventricular (AV) node (i.e., negative dromotropic effect) resulting in prolongation of the stimulus-to-His bundle (S-H) interval to potentially reduce ventricular rate. Compounds that are full agonists of the A(1) adenosine receptor can cause high grade AV block. Therefore, it is envisioned that a compound that is a partial agonist of the A(1) adenosine receptor could avoid this deleterious effect. 5(') Phenyl sulfides (e.g., 17, EC(50)=1.26 microM) and phenyl ethers (e.g., 28, EC(50)=0.2 microM) are partial agonists with respect to their AV nodal effects in guinea pig isolated hearts. Additional affinity, GTPgammaS binding data suggesting partial activity of the A(1) adenosine receptor, and PK results for 5(') modified adenosine derivatives are shown. 相似文献

New potent inhibitors of aquaporins: silver and gold compounds inhibit aquaporins of plant and human origin 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
Silver and gold compounds were tested as potential inhibitors of aquaporins of plant- and human origin. Silver as AgNO(3) or silver sulfadiazine inhibited with high potency (EC(50) 1-10 microM) the water permeability of the peribacteroid membrane from soybean (containing Nodulin 26), the water permeability of plasma membrane from roots (containing plasma membrane integral proteins), and the water permeability of human red cells (containing aquaporin 1). Gold as HAuCl(4) was less effective but still inhibited peribacteroid membrane water permeability (EC(50)=10 microM). Silver and gold are more potent inhibitors of aquaporins than the presently widely used mercury containing compounds. 相似文献

A novel series of 1,2,3-thiadiazole thioacetanilide (TTA) derivatives have been designed, synthesized and evaluated for its anti-HIV activities in MT-4 cells. Some derivatives proved to be highly effective in inhibiting HIV-1 replication at nanomolar concentrations. Among them, 2-[4-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-ylthio]-N-(2-nitrophenyl)acetamide 7d2 was identified as the most promising compound (EC(50)=0.059+/-0.02 microM, CC(50)>283.25 microM, SI>4883).

Azidopine noncompetitively interacts with vinblastine and cyclosporin A binding to P-glycoprotein in multidrug resistant cells. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
It is believed that P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an energy-dependent drug efflux pump responsible for decreased drug accumulation in multidrug resistant (MDR) cells. In this study, we investigated whether azidopine, a photoactive dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, is transported by P-gp in MDR Chinese hamster lung cells, DC-3F/VCRd-5L, and whether its binding site(s) on P-gp are distinct from those of Vinca alkaloids and cyclosporins. The efflux of azidopine from MDR cells was energy-dependent and inhibited by the cytotoxic agent vinblastine (VBL). Cyclosporin A (CsA), a modulator of MDR, also increased azidopine accumulation in MDR cells by decreasing the energy-dependent efflux of azidopine. P-gp in these cells was the only protein specifically bound to [3H]azidopine in photoaffinity experiments. The specific photoaffinity labeling of P-gp by [3H]azidopine was inhibited by CsA, SDZ 33-243, nonradioactive azidopine, and VBL with median concentrations (IC50) of 0.5, 0.62, 1.7, and 25 microM, respectively. The equilibrium binding of azidopine to plasma membranes of MDR variant DC-3F/VCRd-5L cells showed a single class of specific binding sites having a dissociation constant of 1.20 microM and a maximum binding capacity of 4.47 nmol/mg of protein. Kinetic analysis indicated that the inhibitory effect of VBL and CsA on azidopine binding to plasma membranes of MDR cells was noncompetitive, indicating that azidopine binds to P-gp at a binding site(s) different from the binding site(s) of these drugs. 相似文献

Dopamine is the main catecholamine found in the chick retina whereas norepinephrine is only found in trace amounts. We compared the effectiveness of dopamine and norepinephrine in promoting cyclic AMP accumulation in retinas at embryonic day 13 (E13) and from post-hatched chicken (P15). Dopamine (EC(50)=10microM) and norepinephrine (EC(50)=30microM), but not the beta(1)-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol, stimulated over seven-fold the production of cyclic AMP in E13 retina. The cyclic AMP accumulation induced by both catecholamines in embryonic tissue was entirely blocked by 2microM SCH23390, a D(1) receptor antagonist, but not by alprenolol (beta-adrenoceptor antagonist). In P15 retinas, 100microM isoproterenol stimulated five-fold the accumulation of cAMP. This effect was blocked by propanolol (10microM), but not by 2microM SCH23390. Embryonic and adult retina display beta(1) adrenergic receptor mRNA as detected by RT-PCR, but the beta(1) adrenergic receptor protein was detected only in post-hatched tissue. We conclude that norepinephrine cross-reacts with D(1) dopaminergic receptor with affinity similar to that of dopamine in the embryonic retina. In the mature retina, however, D(1) receptors become restricted to activation by dopamine. Moreover, as opposed to the embryonic tissue, norepinephrine seems to stimulate cAMP accumulation via beta(1)-like adrenergic receptors in the mature tissue. 相似文献
