Baccharis dracunculifolia D.C. (Asteraceae) is the most important plant source of the Brazilian green propolis. Since propolis is known for its antimicrobial activity, the aim of this work was to evaluate the antimicrobial activities of B. dracunculifolia and some of its isolated compounds. The results showed that the leaves extract of B. dracunculifolia (BdE) presents antifungal and antibacterial activities, especially against Candida krusei and Cryptococcus neoformans, for which the BdE showed IC50 values of 65 microg mL(-1) and 40 microg mL(-1), respectively. In comparison to the BdE, it was observed that the green propolis extract (GPE) showed better antimicrobial activity, displaying an IC50 value of 9 microg mL(-1) against C. krusei. Also, a phytochemical study of the BdE was carried out, affording the isolation of ursolic acid (1), 2a-hydroxy-ursolic acid (2), isosakuranetin (3), aromadendrin-4'-methylether (4), baccharin (5), viscidone (6), hautriwaic acid lactone (7), and the clerodane diterpene 8. This is the first time that the presence of compounds 1, 2, and 8 in B. dracunculifolia has been reported. Among the isolated compounds, 1 and 2 showed antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, displaying IC50 values of 5 microg mL(-1) and 3 microg mL(-1), respectively. 3 was active against C. neoformans, showing an IC50 value of 15 microg mL(-1) and a MIC value of 40 microg mL(-1), while compounds 4-8 were inactive against all tested microorganisms. The results showed that the BdE, similar to the GPE, displays antimicrobial activity, which may be related to the effect of several compounds present in the crude extract. 相似文献

A series of 7-fluoro-3-aminosteroids were synthesized and their in vitro antimicrobial activities were evaluated against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The nucleophilic fluorination of several 7beta-hydroxysteroids by diethylaminosulfur trifluoride in n-pentane, followed by reductive amination of the resulting 7-fluoro-3-ketosteroids with spermidine in the presence of NaBH(3)CN, afforded 7-fluoro-3-aminosteroids in high yield. Compound 25 showed the highest antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Escherichia coli. 相似文献

A series of 3α-amino-5α-cholestane and 3α,7α-diamino-5α-cholestane derivatives containing imidazole and pyridine rings were synthesized by simple and effective reductive amination, and their in vitro activities against a range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains were evaluated. Most of the compound exhibited enhanced activity against MRSA pathogen. 3α,7α-Di(pyridylmethyl)amino-5α-cholestane 10 showed the highest potency in these series toward the Gram-positive bacteria, Staphylococcus epidermidis 887E, with the lowest MIC value of 1 μg/mL. 相似文献

A method for immobilizing oligosaccharides on a TLC plate for immunostaining has been developed. N-Glycolylneuraminic acid (NeuGc)-containing oligosaccharides derived from II3NeuGc-LacCer, IV3NeuGc-nLcOse4Cer, II3NeuGc-GgOse3Cer, and II3(NeuGc)2-LacCer by digestion with our newly isolated endoglycoceramidase (Ito, M. & Yamagata, T. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 14278-14282) and sialyllactose were chromatographed on polyamide 11 TLC or NH2-HPTLC plates, and covalently linked to the plates by reductive amination with sodium cyanoborohydride (NaBH3-CN). The immobilized oligosaccharides were detected by enzyme-immunostaining using NeuGc-specific chicken anti-NeuGc-LacCer and horseradish peroxidase-conjugated rabbit anti-chicken IgG. II3NeuGc-nLcOse4 showed the highest reactivity with the antibody, followed by II3NeuGc-GgOse3. As little as 0.8 nmol of the NeuGc-containing oligosaccharides was detected. The polyamide 11 TLC aluminum plate was found to be more suitable for the immunostaining than the NH2-HPTLC plate under the conditions used. For binding of the oligosaccharides to the NH2-HPTLC plate, reductive amination was found to be superior to the heating method reported earlier. 相似文献

Several new euglobal analogues (named as S-euglobals) were synthesized from phloroglucinol via a biomimetic three-component reaction involving Knoevenagel condensation followed by [4+2]-Diels-Alder cycloaddition with monoterpene. Newly synthesized euglobal analogues involve monoterpenes that have not yet been encountered in natural euglobals. S-Euglobals along with previously synthesized robustadial A and B were evaluated for in vitro antileishmanial, antimalarial, antimicrobial, and cytotoxic activities. Out of 16, nine analogues were found to exhibit antileishmanial activity against Leishmania donovani promastigotes. Analogue 7 was the most potent with IC(50) of 2.4 microg/mL and IC(90) of 8 microg/mL, followed by analogues 8 and 11 (IC(50) 5.5 and 9.5 microg/mL). Antileishmanial activity of robustadial A (5) and B (6) was moderate with IC(50) of 20 and 16 microg/mL, respectively. Robustadial A and B and S-euglobal 8 exhibited weak antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum (IC(50) of 2.7-4.76 microg/mL). Few of the euglobal analogues showed antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Amongst these, analogue 11 was the most potent with IC(50) of 1.0 microg/mL and MIC of 5.0 microg/mL. Most of the compounds were not cytotoxic up to 25 microg/mL in a panel of cell lines consisting of both cancer (SK-MEL, KB, BT-549, and SK-OV-3) as well as non-cancer kidney (Vero and LLC-PK11) cells. 相似文献

Austroplenckia populnea (Celastraceae), known as "marmelinho do campo", is used in Brazilian folk medicine as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antitumoural agent. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the antimicrobial, antileishmanial and antimalarial activities of the crude hydroalcoholic extract of A. populnea (CHE) and some of its isolated compounds. The phytochemical study of the CHE was carried out affording the isolation of methyl populnoate (1), populnoic acid (2), and stigmast-5-en-3-O-beta-(D-glucopyranoside) (3). This is the first time that the presence of compound 3 in A. populnea is reported. The results showed that the CHE presents antifungal and antibacterial activities, especially against Candida glabrata and Candida albicans, for which the CHE showed IC50 values of 0.7 microg mL(-1) and 5.5 microg mL(-1), respectively, while amphotericin B showed an IC50 value of 0.1 microg mL(-1) against both microorganisms. Compounds 1-3 were inactive against all tested microorganisms. In the antileishmanial activity test against Leishmania donovani, the CHE showed an IC50 value of 52 microg mL(-1), while compounds 2 and 3 displayed an IC50 value of 18 microg mL(-1) In the antimalarial assay against Plasmodium falciparum (D6 and W2 clones), it was observed that all evaluated samples were inactive. In order to compare the effect on the parasites with the toxicity to mammalian cells, the cytotoxicity activity of the isolated compounds was evaluated against Vero cells, showing that all evaluated samples exhibited no cytotoxicity at the maximum dose tested. 相似文献

Variously oxidized 12 natural abietanes, 6,7-dehydroferruginol methyl ether (3), ferruginol (5), 11-hydroxy-12-oxo-7,9(11),13-abietatriene (7), royleanone (9), demethyl cryptojaponol (12), salvinolone (14), sugiol methyl ether (16), sugiol (17), 5,6-dehydrosugiol methyl ether (19), 5,6-dehydrosugiol (20), 6beta-hydroxyferruginol (23), and taxodione (25) were synthesized. Antimicrobial activities of synthesized phenolic diterpenes and their related compounds against MRSA and VRE were evaluated. Phenols (12-hydroxyabieta-8,11,13-trien-6-one 22 and 23), catechols (12 and 14) and taxodione 25 showed potent activity with 4-10 microg/mL of MIC against MRSA and 4-16 microg/mL of MIC against VRE. (-)-Ferruginol showed more potent activity than natural type (+)-ferruginol. Quinone methide 7 showed the most potent activity with 0.5-1 microg/mL of MIC against both MRSA and VRE. 相似文献

The effect of inhibition of NADP-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42) by DL-threo-alpha-methylisocitrate (3-hydroxy-1,2,3-butanetricarboxylase) on urea synthesis was studied in isolated rat hepatocytes. alpha-Methylisocitrate substantially inhibited the rate of urea synthesis (35--84%) with substrates requiring net reductive amination of 2-oxoglutarate to glutamate for aspartate synthesis (i.e., L-serine, D-alanine, or NH4Cl + L-lactate). alpha-Methylisocitrate did not inhibit synthesis of urea from substrates not requiring reductive formation of glutamate (i.e. L-alanine, L-glutamine, L-asparagine, or NH4Cl + L-ornithine). The rate-limiting role of NADPH in urea synthesis was correlated with the decrease in NADPH content that occurred upon addition of NH4Cl or of alpha-methylisocitrate to hepatocytes incubated with lactate and pyruvate, indicating utilization of NADPH for reductive amination of 2-oxoglutarate and inhibition of NADPH generation via NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase, respectively. Similar results were obtained with D-alanine and L-serine; however, alpha-methylisocitrate or NH4Cl did not substantially decrease NADPH content when L-alanine was the substrate. Inhibitors or ornithine--2-oxo acid transaminase (L-canaline or gabaculine) decreased the uptake of ornithine by hepatocytes and inhibited the alpha-methylisocitrate insensitive urea synthesis from ornithine and NH4Cl. Canaline did not inhibit urea synthesis from lactate, ornithine, and NH4Cl but the inhibition by alpha-methylisocitrate of urea formation from this combination was appreciably larger with canaline (approx. 82%) than without canaline (approx. 48%). Inhibition of urea synthesis from NH4Cl + lactate by alpha-methylisocitrate was partially prevented by oleate, octanoate, or 3-hydroxybutyrate. When the NADH content of hepatocytes was increased by 3-hydroxybutyrate, the addition of NH4Cl and/or alpha-methylisocitrate caused a decline in NADH (and NADPH) content, suggesting that reducing equivalents from NADH as well as from NADPH can support net reductive amination of 2-oxoglutarate when required for urea synthesis. 相似文献

Three known compounds, 2-hexylidene-3-methylsuccinic acid (1), cytochalasin Q (2), and 5-carboxymellein (3), together with two new derivatives, 2-hexylidene-3-methylsuccinic acid 4-methyl ester (4) and an ophiobolane sesterterpene named halorosellinic acid (5), were isolated from culture broth of the marine fungus Halorosellinia oceanica BCC 5149. Compounds 1-3 exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against KB and BC-1 cell lines with IC(50) values of 1-13 microg/mL, while compounds 2, 3, 5, and 6 showed antimalarial activity with respective IC(50) values of 17, 4, 13, and 19 microg/mL. Halorosellinic acid (5) possessed only weak antimycobacterial activity with the minimum inhibitory concentration of 200 microg/mL. 相似文献

Like other nematodes, both L(3) and adult Teladosagia circumcincta secrete or excrete NH(3)/NH(4)(+), but the reactions involved in the production are unclear. Glutamate dehydrogenase is a significant source NH(3)/NH(4)(+) in some species, but previous reports indicate that the enzyme is absent from L(3)Haemonchus contortus. We show that glutamate dehydrogenase was active in both L(3) and adult T. circumcincta. The apparent K(m)s of the L(3) enzyme differed from those of the adult enzyme, the most significant of these being the increase in the K(m) for NH(4)(+) from 18mM in L(3) to 49mM in adults. The apparent V(max) of the oxidative deamination reaction was greater than that of the reductive reaction in L(3), but this was reversed in adults. The activity of the oxidative reaction of the L(3) enzyme was not affected by adenine nucleotides, but that of the reductive reaction was stimulated significantly by either ADP or ATP. The L(3) enzyme was more active with NAD(+) than it was with NADP(+), although the activities supported by NADH and NADPH were similar at saturating concentrations. While the activity of the oxidative reaction was sufficient to account for the NH(3)/NH(4)(+) efflux we have previously reported, the reductive amination reaction was likely to be more active. 相似文献

Species of Bacteroides fragilis group bacteria are the most prevalent pathogens and have the highest resistance rates to antimicrobial agents among anaerobic bacteria. Infections due to these micro-organisms often originate from patient's own intestinal microbiota. The objective of the study was to determine and compare the susceptibility profiles of clinical and intestinal B. fragilis and B. thetaiotaomicron strains against certain antimicrobials. Isolates were identified by conventional methods and API-20 A. Susceptibility tests were performed according to recommendations of NCCLS (M 11-A4) agar dilution methods. Beta-lactamase production was determined with nitrocefin discs. Forty-five clinical isolates (33 B. fragilis and 12 B. thetaiotaomicron) were from following sites: blood (n:8), intra-abdominal abscess (n:7), soft tissue (n:26), and miscellaneous foci of infection (n:4). Fifty B. fragilis and 60 B. thetaiotaomicron isolates from intestinal microbiota of individuals with no history of antimicrobial treatment within last 30 days were also examined. Beta-lactamase production was detected in 93% of clinical and 99% of intestinal isolates. The organisms including intestinal isolates were uniformly susceptible to metronidazole. The MIC90s of other antibiotics and resistance rates of all clinical isolates to those antibiotics were as follows: 256 microg/mL (93%) for ampicillin, 128 microg/mL (13%) for piperacillin, 64 microg/mL (11%) for cefoxitin, 1 microg/mL (2%) for amoxicillin-clavulanate, 0.5 microg/mL (2%) for imipenem, >256 microg/mL (36%) for clindamycin, 8 microg/mL (2%) for chloramphenicol. Intestinal isolates demonstrated similar resistance rates and MIC90s. Metronidazole, imipenem, amoxicillin-clavulanate seem to be effective drugs against these bacteria in Turkey. 相似文献

The absolute stereochemistry of the new antifungal and antibacterial antibiotic produced by Streptomyces sp.201 has been established by achieving the total synthesis of the product. A series of analogues have also been synthesized by changing the side chain and their bioactivity assessed against different microbial strains. Among them, 1e (R = C8H17) was found to be the most potent with MIC of 8 microg/mL against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, 12 microg/mL against Escherichia coli and 16 microg/mL against Bacillus subtilis 6 microg/mL against Proteus vulgaris. This was followed by 1b (R = C5H11) with MIC of 10-20 microg/mL range and 1d (R = C7H15) with MIC of 14-24 g/mL, whereas 1a (R = C4H9) and 1f (R = C18H35) were found to be completely inactive. Besides, 1c (R = C6H13) showed certain extent of antibacterial activity in the range of 24-50 microg/mL. Mycobacterium tuberculosis was very sensitive to 1e (R = C8H17) with MIC of 8 microg/mL. Antifungal activity of analogues 1d (R = C7H15) and 1e, (R = C8H17) against Fusarium oxysporum and Rhizoctonia solani were found promising with MFCs in the 15-18 microg/mL range. 相似文献

The first total synthesis of a unique flavone natural product, desmosdumotin B (1), was accomplished. Furthermore, three novel flavonoids, 6-8, and a novel chalcone, 9, were synthesized. The new compounds were evaluated as in vitro inhibitors of human cancer cell growth. The synthetic 1 showed significant cytotoxic activity against a multi-drug resistant cell line (KB-VIN) with an ED50 value of 2.0 microg/mL compared to >40 microg/mL against the parental KB cell line. Flavone 7 displayed selective activity against 1A9 ovarian carcinoma with an ED50 value of 0.7 microg/mL. Selected 1-analogs and synthetic intermediates were also screened for antitumor-promoting effects as inhibitors of EBV-EA activation. Among them, trihydroxyacetophenone derivatives 11 and 14 showed good activity. 相似文献

A series of 7-O-alkoxy-4-methylumbelliferone derivatives were prepared using a convenient one step synthesis. Additionally the bromo- and azido derivatives 7-O-(4-bromobutoxy)-, 7-O-(6-bromohexyloxy)- and 7-O-(6-azidohexyloxy)-4-methylumbelliferone derivatives were prepared. In vitro evaluation of antimycobacterial activity determined % inhibition and MIC vs M. tuberculosis H37Rv with toxicity (IC50) assessed in VERO cells. The coumarins with longer alkyl chains (nonyl and decyl) showed the optimum inhibitory activity in this series (MIC 3.13 microg/mL) and IC50 > 10 microg/mL. 相似文献

A new compound (1), named diaporthelactone, together with two known compounds (2 and 3) were isolated from the culture of Diaporthe sp., a marine fungus growing in the submerged rotten leaves of Kandelia candel in the mangrove nature conservation areas of Fugong, Fujian Province of China. The new compound was elucidated to be 1,3-dihydro-4-methoxy-7-methyl-3-oxo-5-isobenzofuran-carboxyaldehyde (1), which showed cytotoxic activity against KB and Raji cell lines (IC50 6.25 and 5.51 microg mL(-1), respectively). Two known compounds, 7-methoxy-4,6-dimethyl-3H-isobenzofuran-1-one (2) and mycoepoxydiene (3), were also demonstrated to exhibit cytotoxic activities for the first time. All three compounds were assessed for antimicrobial activity. 相似文献

Ayurvedic medicines prepared in India consist of Withania somnifera roots as one of the main ingredients. It is consumed as a dietary supplement around the world. The leaves of W. somnifera were used in the treatment of tumors and inflammation in several Asian countries. We have isolated twelve withanolides such as withaferin A (1), sitoindoside IX (2), 4-(1-hydroxy-2, 2-dimethylcyclpropanone)-2, 3-dihydrowithaferin A (3), 2, 3-dihydrowithaferin A (4), 24, 25-dihydro-27-desoxywithaferin A (5), physagulin D (1-->6)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl- (1-->4)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (6), 27-O-beta-D-glucopyranosylphysagulin D (7), physagulin D (8), withanoside IV (9), and 27-O-beta-D-glucopyranosylviscosalactone B (10), 4, 16-dihydroxy-5beta, 6beta-epoxyphysagulin D (11), viscosalactone B (12) from the leaves of this species. Compounds 1-12 and diacetylwithaferin A (13) were tested for their antiproliferative activity on NCI-H460 (Lung), HCT-116 (Colon), SF-268 (Central Nervous System; CNS and MCF-7 (Breast) human tumor cell lines. The inhibitory concentration to afford 50% cell viability (IC50) for these compounds was determined by MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay. Withaferin A and its derivatives exhibited inhibitory concentrations (50%) ranging from 0.24 +/- 0.01 to 11.6 +/- 1.9 microg/mL. Viscosalactone B (12) showed the 50% inhibition at concentrations ranging from 0.32 +/- 0.05 to 0.47 +/- 0.15 microg/mL whereas its 27-O-glucoside derivative (10) exhibited IC50 between 7.9 +/- 2.9 and 17.3 +/- 3.9 microg/ml. However, Physagulin D type withanolides showed either weak or no activity at 30 microg/mL. Therefore, incorporation of withanolides in the diet may prevent or decrease the growth of tumors in human. 相似文献

New 2-thiazolylimino-5-arylidene-4-thiazolidinones (compounds 4a-j), unsubstituted or carrying hydroxy, methoxy, nitro and chloro groups on the benzene ring, were synthesized and assayed in vitro for their antimicrobial activity against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, yeasts and mould. The compounds were very potent towards all tested Gram positive microorganisms (MIC ranging from 0.03 to 6 microg/mL in most of the cases) and Gram negative Haemophilus influenzae (MIC 0.15-1.5 microg/mL), whereas no effectiveness was exhibited against Gram negative Escherichia coli and fungi up to the concentration of 100 microg/mL. The 5-arylidene derivatives showed an antibacterial efficacy considerably greater than that of the parent 2-(thiazol-2-ylimino)thiazolidin-4-one 3, suggesting that the substituted and unsubstituted 5-arylidene moiety plays an important role in enhancing the antimicrobial properties of this class of compounds. The remarkable inhibition of the growth of penicillin-resistant staphylococci makes these substances promising agents also for the treatment of infections caused by microorganisms resistant to currently available drugs. 相似文献

In the present communication, naturally occurring phloroglucinol-monoterpene adducts, euglobals G1-G4 (3b/a and 4a/b) and 16 new analogues (13a/b-18a/b and 19-22) were synthesized by biomimetic approach. These synthetic compounds differ from natural euglobals in the nature of monoterpene and acyl functionality. All of these compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial, antifungal, antileishmanial and antimalarial activities. Analogue 17b possessed good antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, while analogues 19-22 possessed potent antifungal activity against Candida glabrata with IC50s ranging from 1.5 to 2.5 microg/mL. Euglobals along with all synthesized analogues exhibited antileishmanial activity. Amongst these, euglobal G2 (3a), G3 (4a) and analogues 13a and 14a showed potent antileishmanial activity with IC50s ranging from 2.8 to 3.9 microg/mL. Analogue 16a possessed antimalarial activity against chloroquine sensitive D6 clone of Plasmodium falciparum. None of the compounds showed toxicity against mammalian kidney fibroblasts (vero cells) upto the concentration of 4.76 microg/ml. 相似文献
