The present study, utilizing thioglycolamido as the reactive group, describes the synthesis and pharmacology of a new opioid antagonist affinity ligand, 6-thioglycolamido-6-desoxynaltrexone (TAN) and compares TAN with a related known compound, 6-bromoacetamido-6-desoxynaltrexone (BAN). Both compounds were tested for their reversible and irreversible inhibition of [3H]naloxone binding to calf brain membranes. Reversible binding of BAN and TAN had Ki values of 1×10–9 and 1×10–10 M, respectively as determined by log probit plots. Irreversible binding was determined after extensive washing to remove all non-covalently bound ligand. At a concentration of 5×10–8 and 1×10–8 M for BAN and TAN irreversible binding was inhibited 50% of the maximum value. A study of the time course of irreversible inhibition of [3H]naloxone binding revealed that maximal inhibition occurred within 5 min with a concentration of 1×10–7 M of either agent. TAN but not BAN when administered systematically to mice produced an antinociceptive effect as measured by the writhing test. When administered intracerebraventricularly BAN did not block morphine-induced analgesia for more than 2 hr; whereas, with a single ED50 dose of 20 nmoles of TAN i.c.v. morphine-induced analgesia was almost completely blocked for a period of over 24 hr, as determined by the tail flick test. Although the SH group of TAN were required for the covalent interaction with opioid receptors, the site of TAN's interaction appears to involve other than protein SH groups. 相似文献

Pharmaceutical excipients contain reactive groups and impurities due to manufacturing processes that can cause decomposition of active drug compounds. The aim of this investigation was to determine if commercially available oral disintegrating tablet (ODT) platforms induce active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) degradation. Benzocaine was selected as the model API due to known degradation through ester and primary amino groups. Benzocaine was either compressed at a constant pressure, 20 kN, or at pressure necessary to produce a set hardness, i.e., where a series of tablets were produced at different compression forces until an average hardness of approximately 100 N was achieved. Tablets were then stored for 6 months under International Conference on Harmonization recommended conditions, 25°C and 60% relative humidity (RH), or under accelerated conditions, 40°C and 75% RH. Benzocaine degradation was monitored by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry. Regardless of the ODT platform, no degradation of benzocaine was observed in tablets that were kept for 6 months at 25°C and 60% RH. After storage for 30 days under accelerated conditions, benzocaine degradation was observed in a single platform. Qualitative differences in ODT platform behavior were observed in physical appearance of the tablets after storage under different temperature and humidity conditions. 相似文献

BackgroundStudy determines differences in calculated dose distributions for non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSC LC) patients. NSC LC cases were investigated, being the most common lung cancer treated by radiotherapy in our clinical practice.Materials and methodsA retrospective study of 15 NSCLC patient dose distributions originally calculated using standard superposition (SS) and recalculated using collapsed cone (CC ) and Monte Carlo (MC) based algorithm expressed as dose to medium in medium (MCDm) and dose to water in medium (MCDw,) was performed so that prescribed dose covers at least 99% of the gross target volume (GTV). Statistical analysis was performed for differences of conformity index (CI), heterogeneity index (HI), gradient index (GI), dose delivered to 2% of the volume (D2%), mean dose (Dmean) and percentage of volumes covered by prescribed dose (V70Gy). For organs at risk (OARs), Dmean and percentage of volume receiving 20 Gy and 5Gy (V20Gy, V5Gy) were analysed.ResultsStatistically significant difference for GTVs was observed between MCDw and SS algorithm in mean dose only. For planning target volumes (PTVs), statistically significant differences were observed in prescribed dose coverage for CC, MCDm and MCDw. The differences in mean CI value for the CC algorithm and mean HI value for MCDm and MCDw were statistically significant. There is a statistically significant difference in the number of MUs for MCDm and MCDw compared to SS.ConclusionAll investigated algorithms succeed in managing the restrictive conditions of the clinical goals. This study shows the drawbacks of the CC algorithm compared to other algorithms used. 相似文献

Clinical therapies for both obesity and obese non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus require maintenance of reduced body weight after the initial successful reduction resulting from calorie control, exercise, or medication. Although beta(3)-adrenergic receptor (beta(3)-AR) agonists have been shown to stimulate whole body energy expenditure and lipid mobilization, whether stimulatory effects on oxygen consumption and lipolysis are influenced by chronic exposure to agonists has not been fully characterized. We therefore examined the acute and chronic effects of FR-149175, a selective beta(3)-AR agonist, on whole body oxygen consumption in genetically obese Zucker fatty rats. Chronic treatment with FR-149175 caused a decrease in both body weight gain and white fat pad weight at doses that induced lipolysis in acute treatment (1 and 3.2 mg/kg p.o.). Single administration of FR-149175 (0.1, 1, and 3.2 mg/kg p.o.) dose dependently increased whole body oxygen consumption. Repetitive administration did not cause attenuation of the thermogenic response at lower doses (0.1 and 1 mg/kg 2 times daily), whereas the highest dose (3.2 mg/kg 2 times daily) induced a progressive increase in oxygen consumption. PCR analyses of retroperitoneal white adipose tissue indicated little or no change in beta(3)-AR mRNA levels. Uncoupling protein 1 gene expression increased at 1 mg/kg, and drastic upregulation was detected at 3.2 mg/kg. FR-149175 also increased HSL mRNA levels in a dose-related manner, whereas there was no effect on genes involved in beta-oxidation. These results support that the thermogenic effect of beta(3)-AR agonists is not attenuated by chronic exposure to agonists. 相似文献

The use of microarrays in the analysis of gene expression is becoming widespread for many organisms, including yeast. However, although the genomes of a number of filamentous fungi have been fully or partially sequenced, microarray analysis is still in its infancy in these organisms. Here, we describe the construction and validation of microarrays for the fungus Aspergillus nidulans using PCR products from a 4092 EST conidial germination library. An experiment was designed to validate these arrays by monitoring the expression profiles of known genes following the addition of 1% (w/v) glucose to wild-type A. nidulans cultures grown to mid-exponential phase in Vogel's minimal medium with ethanol as the sole carbon source. The profiles of genes showing statistically significant differential expression following the glucose up-shift are presented and an assessment of the quality and reproducibility of the A. nidulans arrays discussed. 相似文献

In order to design potential biomaterials, we investigated the laccase-catalyzed cross-linking between l-lysine or lysine-containing peptides and dihydroxylated aromatics. l-Lysine is one of the major components of naturally occurring mussel adhesive proteins (MAPs). Dihydroxylated aromatics are structurally related to 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl-l-alanine, another main component of MAPs. Mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance analyses show that the ε-amino group of l-lysine is able to cross-link dihydroxylated aromatics. Additional oligomer and polymer cross-linked products were obtained from di- and oligopeptides containing l-lysine. Potential applications in medicine or industry for biomaterials synthesised via the three component system consisting of the oligopeptide [Tyr-Lys]10, dihydroxylated aromatics and laccase are discussed. 相似文献

The era of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has controlled AIDS and its related disorders considerably; however, the prevalence of HIV-1-associated neurocognitive disorders has been on the rise in the post-HAART era. In view of these developments, we investigated whether a HAART drug combination of 3'-azido-2',3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) and indinavir (IDV) can alter the functionality of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) endothelial cells, thereby exacerbating this condition. The viability of hCMEC/D3 cells (in vitro model of BBB) that were exposed to these drugs was significantly reduced after 72h treatment, in a dose-dependent manner. Reactive oxygen species were highly elevated after the exposure, indicating that mechanisms that induce oxidative stress were involved. Measures of oxidative stress parameters, such as glutathione and malondialdehyde, were altered in the treated groups. Loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, as assessed by fluorescence microscopy and decreased levels of ATP, indicated that cytotoxicity was mediated through mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, AZT+IDV treatment caused apoptosis in endothelial cells, as assessed by the expression of cytochrome c and procaspase-3 proteins. Pretreatment with the thiol antioxidant N-acetylcysteine amide reversed some of the pro-oxidant effects of AZT+IDV. Results from our in vitro studies indicate that the AZT+IDV combination may affect the BBB in HIV-infected individuals treated with HAART drugs. 相似文献
