The synthesis of a new series of sulfamides incorporating ortho-, meta, and para-benzenesulfamide moieties is reported, which were investigated for the inhibition of two human (h) isoforms of the zinc enzyme carbonic anhydrase (CA, EC 4.2.1.1), hCA I and II, and two Vibrio cholerae enzymes, belonging to the α- and β-CA classes (VchCAα, VchCAβ). The compounds were prepared by using the “tail approach”, aiming to overcome the scarcity of selective inhibition profiles associated to CA inhibitors belonging to the zinc binders. The built structure–activity relationship showed that the incorporation of benzhydryl piperazine tails on a phenyl sulfamide scaffold determines rather good efficacies against hCA I and VchCAα, with several compounds showing KIs?100?nM. The activity was lower against hCA II and VchCAβ, probably due to the fact that the incorporated tails are quite bulky. The obtained evidences allow us to continue the investigations of different tails/zinc binding groups, with the purpose to increase the effectiveness/selectivity of such inhibitors against bacterial CAs from pathogens, affording thus potential new anti-infectives. 相似文献

The etiology of chronic Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) remains unknown, with both genetic and environmental risk factors having been implicated. A recent collaborative study of IBD provides clinical data from families with three or more affected first-degree relatives. The scientific question is whether specific clinical characteristics aggregate among affected individuals within families. Gastroenterological researchers have examined the number of concordant familial pairs in familial aggregation studies, but methods and results have been discrepant. This article investigates concepts of concordance and gives a comprehensive statistical treatment for testing concordance of various clinical traits in familial studies. For dichotomous traits, the distribution of this statistic under the null hypothesis of no familial aggregation is obtained by three methods: asymptotic, probability generating function, and permutation. The permutation method is extended to analyze aggregation for non-dichotomous traits and co-aggregations between two traits. We apply the permutation method to analyze the aforementioned multiply-affected IBD family data. Evidence is found for familial clustering of various traits, some of which are not revealed in existing studies. Such analyses provide a basis for investigating the dependence of trait aggregation upon genetic or environmental risk factors. 相似文献

Alzheimer disease is associated with extracellular deposits of amyloid beta-peptides in the brain. Amyloid beta-peptides are generated by proteolytic processing of the beta-amyloid precursor protein by beta- and gamma-secretases. The cleavage by secretases occurs predominantly in post-Golgi secretory and endocytic compartments and is influenced by cholesterol, indicating a role of the membrane lipid composition in proteolytic processing of the beta-amyloid precursor protein. To analyze the role of glycosphingolipids in these processes we inhibited glycosyl ceramide synthase, which catalyzes the first step in glycosphingolipid biosynthesis. The depletion of glycosphingolipids markedly reduced the secretion of endogenous beta-amyloid precursor protein in different cell types, including human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Importantly, secretion of amyloid beta-peptides was also strongly decreased by inhibition of glycosphingolipid biosynthesis. Conversely, the addition of exogenous brain gangliosides to cultured cells reversed these effects. Biochemical and cell biological experiments demonstrate that the pharmacological reduction of cellular glycosphingolipid levels inhibited maturation and cell surface transport of the beta-amyloid precursor protein. In the glycosphingolipid-deficient cell line GM95, cellular levels and maturation of beta-amyloid precursor protein were also significantly reduced as compared with normal B16 cells. Together, these data demonstrate that glycosphingolipids are implicated in the regulation of the subcellular transport of the beta-amyloid precursor protein in the secretory pathway and its proteolytic processing. Thus, enzymes involved in glycosphingolipid metabolism might represent targets to inhibit the production of amyloid beta-peptides. 相似文献

Epidemiological studies indicate that intake of statins decrease the risk of developing Alzheimer disease. Cellular and in vivo studies suggested that statins might decrease the generation of the amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) from the β-amyloid precursor protein. Here, we show that statins potently stimulate the degradation of extracellular Aβ by microglia. The statin-dependent clearance of extracellular Aβ is mainly exerted by insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) that is secreted in a nonconventional pathway in association with exosomes. Stimulated IDE secretion and Aβ degradation were also observed in blood of mice upon peripheral treatment with lovastatin. Importantly, increased IDE secretion upon lovastatin treatment was dependent on protein isoprenylation and up-regulation of exosome secretion by fusion of multivesicular bodies with the plasma membrane. These data demonstrate a novel pathway for the nonconventional secretion of IDE via exosomes. The modulation of this pathway could provide a new strategy to enhance the extracellular clearance of Aβ. 相似文献

A series of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine linked 2-aminobenzothizole conjugates (6a–t) were synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer activity against five human cancer cell lines. Among them two compounds 6p and 6m showed significant anticancer activity with IC50 values ranging from 2.01 to 7.07 and 1.94–3.46 μM, respectively. Moreover, cell cycle arrest in G2/M and reduction in Cdk1 expression level were observed upon treatment of these compounds and they also induced caspase-3 dependent apoptosis. This was further confirmed by staining as well as DNA fragmentation analysis. 相似文献

A series of new conjugates of quinazolino linked 4β-amidopodophyllotoxins 10aa–af and 10ba–bf were synthesized and evaluated for their anticancer activity against human pancreatic carcinoma (Panc-1) as well as breast cancer cell lines such as MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 by employing MTT assay. Among these conjugates, some of them like 10bc, 10bd, 10be and 10bf exhibited high potency of cytotoxicity. Flow cytometric analysis showed that these conjugates arrested the cell cycle in the G2/M phase and caused the increase in expression of p53 and cyclin B1 protein with concomitant decrease in Cdk1 thereby suggesting the inhibitory action of these conjugates on mitosis. Interestingly, we observed a decrease in expression of proteins that control the tumor micro environment such as VEGF-A, STAT-3, ERK1/2, ERK-p, AKT-1 ser 473 phosphorylation in compounds treated breast cancer cells. Further, these effective conjugates have exhibited inhibitory action on integrin (αVβIII). Furthermore, the MCF-7 cells that were arrested and lost the proliferative capacity undergo mitochondrial mediated apoptosis by activation of caspases-9. Thus these conjugates have the potential to control breast cancer cell growth by effecting tumor angiogenesis and invasion. 相似文献
