A bis-quinoline compound, (7-chloro-N-(4-(7-chloroquinolin-4-ylamino)butyl)quinolin-4-amine; RE-660) was found to have C-C chemokine receptor type 1 (CCR1)-agonistic properties. RE-660 displayed strong adjuvantic activity in mice when co-administered with bovine α-lactalbumin used as a model subunit protein antigen. RE-660 evoked a balanced Th1 (IgG2)/Th2 (IgG1) antibody profile, and the quality of antibodies elicited by the bis-quinoline was found to be superior to that evoked by glucopyranosyl lipid A by surface plasmon resonance experiments. No evidence of proinflammatory activity was observed in human blood ex vivo models. In preliminary acute toxicity studies, the compound was found to be of lower toxicity than chloroquine in mice, and was non-mutagenic in an Ames screen.  相似文献

Chronic immune activation is a hallmark of progressive HIV infection. Recent reports point to the engagement of toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) and -9 by viral RNA as contributing to the activation of innate immune responses, which drive viral replication leading to immune exhaustion. The only known class of TLR7 antagonists is single-stranded phosphorothioate oligonucleotides, which has been demonstrated to inhibit immune activation in human and Rhesus macaque in vitro models. The availability of a selective and potent small-molecule TLR7 antagonist should allow the evaluation of potential benefits of suppression of TLR7-mediated immune activation in HIV/AIDS. Gardiquimod is a known N1-substituted 1H-imidazoquinoline TLR7 agonist, the synthesis of which has not been published. We show that the 3H regioisomer is completely inactive as a TLR7 agonist and is weakly antagonistic. A des-amino precursor of the 3H regioisomer is more potent as a TLR7 antagonist, with an IC50 value of 7.5 μM. This class of compound may serve as a starting point for the development of small-molecule inhibitors of TLR7.  相似文献

Melittin, the 26-residue predominant toxic peptide from bee venom, exhibits potent antibacterial activity in addition to its hemolytic activity. The synthetic peptide of 15 residues corresponding to its C-terminal end (MCF), which encompasses its most amphiphilic segment, is now being shown to possess antibacterial activity about 5-7 times less compared to that of melittin. MCF, however, is 300 times less hemolytic. An analog of MCF, MCFA, in which two cationic residues have been transpositioned to the N-terminal region from the C-terminal region, exhibits antibacterial activity comparable to that of melittin, but is only marginally more hemolytic than MCF. The biophysical properties of the peptides, like folding and aggregation, correlate well with their biological properties.  相似文献

Background

Newborns and young infants are at higher risk for infections than adults, and manifest suboptimal vaccine responses, motivating a search for novel immunomodulators and/or vaccine adjuvants effective in early life. In contrast to most TLR agonists (TLRA), TLR8 agonists such as imidazoquinolines (IMQs) induce adult-level Th1-polarizing cytokine production from human neonatal cord blood monocytes and are candidate early life adjuvants. We assessed whether TLR8-activating IMQ congeners may differ in potency and efficacy in inducing neonatal cytokine production in vitro, comparing the novel TLR7/8-activating IMQ analogues Hybrid-2, Meta-amine, and Para-amine to the benchmark IMQ resiquimod (R848).

Methods

TLRA-induced NF-κB activation was measured in TLR-transfected HEK cells. Cytokine production in human newborn cord and adult peripheral blood and in monocyte-derived dendritic cell cultures were measured by ELISA and multiplex assays. X-ray crystallography characterized the interaction of human TLR8 with Hybrid-2.

Results

Hybrid-2 selectively activated both TLR7 and 8 and was more potent than R848 in inducing adult-like levels of TNF-α, and IL-1β. Consistent with its relatively high in vitro activity, crystallographic studies suggest that absence in Hybrid-2 of an ether oxygen of the C2-ethoxymethyl substituent, which can engage in unfavorable electrostatic and/or dipolar interactions with the carbonyl oxygen of Gly572 in human TLR8, may confer greater efficacy and potency compared to R848.

Conclusions

Hybrid-2 is a selective and potent TLR7/8 agonist that is a candidate adjuvant for early life immunization.  相似文献

The biological activities of synthetic retro and diastereo analogs of PKLLKTFLSKWIG (SPFK), a 13-residue peptide with antimicrobial and hemolytic activities, have been investigated. Retro peptides with C-terminal acid and amide exhibited antibacterial activities comparable with those of SPFK. Their hemolytic activities were, however, only marginally lower. The diastereo analog with C-terminal acid was not antibacterial and was weakly hemolytic. Amidation of this analog could restore antibacterial activity. Both retro analogs were unordered in aqueous medium but had a propensity for a helical structure in trifluoroethanol. However, diastereo analogs were unordered in both aqueous medium and trifluoroethanol. Thus, reversing the sequence in a short amphiphilic peptide may not always result in the selective loss of biological activity such as hemolytic activity. Also, introduction of enantiomeric amino acids in a short peptide to generate a diastereomer may result in loss of structure as well as antimicrobial and hemolytic activities, unless compensated by an increase in positive charges.  相似文献

The morphology of structures formed by the self‐assembly of short N‐terminal t‐butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) and C‐terminal methyl ester (OMe) protected and Boc‐deprotected hydrophobic peptide esters was investigated. We have observed that Boc‐protected peptide esters composed of either only aliphatic hydrophobic amino acids or aliphatic hydrophobic amino acids in combination with aromatic amino acids, formed highly organized structures, when dried from methanol solutions. Transmission and scanning electron microscopic images of the peptides Boc‐Ile‐Ile‐OMe, Boc‐Phe‐Phe‐Phe‐Ile‐Ile‐OMe and Boc‐Trp‐Ile‐Ile‐OMe showed nanotubular structures. Removal of the Boc group resulted in disruption of the ability to form tubular structures though spherical aggregates were formed. Both Boc‐Leu‐Ile‐Ile‐OMe and H‐Leu‐Ile‐Ile‐OMe formed only spherical nanostructures. Dynamic light scattering studies showed that aggregates of varying dimensions were present in solution suggesting that self‐assembly into ordered structures is facilitated by aggregation in solution. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectroscopy data show that although all four of the protected peptides adopt well‐defined tertiary structures, upon removal of the Boc group, only H‐Phe‐Phe‐Phe‐Ile‐Ile‐OMe had the ability to adopt β‐structure. Our results indicate that hydrophobic interaction is a very important determinant for self‐assembly and presence of charged and aromatic amino acids in a peptide is not necessary for self‐assembly.

Human serum butyrylcholinesterase (Hu BChE) is a promising therapeutic against the toxicity of chemical warfare nerve agents, pesticide intoxication, and cocaine overdose. However, its widespread application is hampered by difficulties in large-scale production of the native protein from human plasma and/or availability as a recombinant protein suitable for use in vivo. This limitation may be resolved by in vivo delivery and expression of the Hu BChE gene. In this study, recombinant (r) adenoviruses (Ads) encoding full-length and truncated rHu BChEs were tested for in vivo expression in mice. Mice injected with these rAds intraperitoneally failed to express rHu BChE. However, a single tail vein injection of both rAds resulted in persistent high serum levels of rHu BChE in BChE knockout mice, which peaked on days 4/5 at 377+/-162U/ml for full-length rHu BChE and 574+/-143U/ml for truncated rHu BChE. These activity levels are orders of magnitude higher than 1.9U/ml of mouse BChE present in wild-type mouse serum. Thereafter, rHu BChE levels dropped rapidly and very little or no activity was detected in the serum 10 days post-virus administration. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates the potential of rAd-mediated Hu BChE gene therapy to counteract multiple lethal doses of chemical warfare nerve agent toxicity.  相似文献
