A thiol compound, glutathione, is essential for healthy cell defence against xenobiotics and oxidative stress. Glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) are two glutathione-related enzymes that function in the antioxidant and the detoxification systems. In this study, potential inhibitory effects of methyl 4-aminobenzoate derivatives on GR and GST were examined in vitro. GR and GST were isolated from human erythrocytes with 7.63 EU/mg protein and 5.66 EU/mg protein specific activity, respectively. It was found that compound 1 (methyl 4-amino-3-bromo-5-fluorobenzoate with Ki value of 0.325±0.012 μM) and compound 5 (methyl 4-amino-2-nitrobenzoate with Ki value of 92.41±22.26 μM) inhibited GR and GST stronger than other derivatives. Furthermore, a computer-aided method was used to predict the binding affinities of derivatives, ADME characteristics, and toxicities. Derivatives 4 (methyl 4-amino-2-bromobenzoate) and 6 (methyl 4-amino-2-chlorobenzoate) were estimated to have the lowest binding energies into GR and GST receptors, respectively according to results of in silico studies. 相似文献

Recessive mutant gene c in the axolotl results in a failure of affected embryos to develop contracting hearts. This abnormality can be corrected by treating the mutant heart with RNA isolated from normal anterior endoderm or from endoderm conditioned medium. A cDNA library was constructed from the total conditioned medium RNA using a random priming technique in a pcDNAII vector. We have previously identified a clone (designated as N1) from the constructed axolotl cDNA library, which has a unique nucleotide sequence. We have also discovered that the N1 gene product is related to heart development in the Mexican axolotl [Cell Mol. Biol. Res. 41 (1995) 117]. In the present studies, we further investigate the role of N1 on heartbeating and heart development in axolotls. N1 mRNA expression has been determined by using semi-quantitative RT-PCR with specifically designed primers. Normal embryonic hearts (at stages 30-31) have been transfected with anti-sense oligonucleotides against N1 to determine if downregulation of N1 gene expression has any effect on normal heart development. Our results show that cardiac N1 mRNA expression is partially blocked in the hearts transfected with anti-sense nucleotides and the downregulation of N1 gene expression results in a decrease of heartbeating in normal embryos, although the hearts remain alive as indicated by calcium spike movement throughout the hearts. Confocal microscopy data indicate some myofibril disorganization in the hearts transfected with the anti-sense N1 oligonucleotides. Interestingly, we also find that N1 gene expression is significantly decreased in the mutant axolotl hearts. Our results suggest that N1 is a novel gene in Mexican axolotls and it probably plays an important role in myofibrillogenesis and in the initiation of heartbeating during heart development. 相似文献

Objective
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by recurrent attacks of fever and inflammation in the peritoneum, synovium, or pleura, accompanied by pain. The disease is associated with mutations in the Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene, which encodes for the pyrin protein. The aim of this study was to explore the frequency and clinical significance of the R202Q (c.605G>A) polymorphism in exon 2 of the MEFV gene in a cohort of Turkish patients with FMF.Methods
The study included 191 patients with FMF and 150 healthy controls. Genomic DNA was isolated and genotyped using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assay for the MEFV gene R202Qpolymorphism.Results
The genotype and allele frequencies of R202Q polymorphism showed a statistically significant difference between FMF patients and controls (p < 0.0001 and p = 0.0004, respectively) and especially the homozygous AA genotype was significantly higher in FMF patients than healthy controls (p = 0.0002; odds ratio = 6.27; 95% CI = 2.1–18.3). However no significant association was observed between clinical and demographic features of FMF patients and R202Qpolymorphism.Conclusion
The results of this study showed that there was a high association between MEFV gene R202Q polymorphism and FMF. R202Q polymorphism should be included in routine molecular diagnosis of FMF patients. 相似文献8.

Lactoperoxidase enzyme (LPO) is secreted from salivary, mammary, and other mucosal glands including the bronchi, lungs, and nose, which had functions as a natural and the first line of defense towards viruses and bacteria. In this study, methyl benzoates were examined in LPO enzyme activity. Methyl benzoates are used as precursors in the synthesis of aminobenzohydrazides used as LPO inhibitors. For this purpose, LPO was purified in a single step using sepharose-4B-l-tyrosine-sulfanilamide affinity gel chromatography with a yield of 9.91 % from cow milk. Also, some inhibition parameters including the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value and an inhibition constant (Ki) values of methyl benzoates were determined. These compounds inhibited LPO with Ki values ranging from 0.033±0.004 to 1540.011±460.020 μM. Compound 1 a (methyl 2-amino-3-bromobenzoate) showed the best inhibition (Ki=0.033±0.004 μM). The most potent inhibitor ( 1 a ) showed with a docking score of −3.36 kcal/mol and an MM-GBSA value of −25.05 kcal/mol, of these methyl benzoate derivatives ( 1 a – 16 a ) series are established H-bond within the binding cavity with residues Asp108 (distance of 1.79 Å), Ala114 (distance of 2.64 Å), and His351 (distance of 2.12 Å). 相似文献

Body weight is a quantitative trait with significant heritability in humans. To identify potential genetic contributors to this phenotype, we resequenced the coding exons and splice junctions of 58 genes in 379 obese and 378 lean individuals. Our 96-Mb survey included 21 genes associated with monogenic forms of obesity in humans or mice, as well as 37 genes that function in body weight-related pathways. We found that the monogenic obesity-associated gene group was enriched for rare nonsynonymous variants unique to the obese population compared with the lean population. In addition, computational analysis predicted a greater fraction of deleterious variants within the obese cohort. Together, these data suggest that multiple rare alleles contribute to obesity in the population and provide a medical sequencing-based approach to detect them. 相似文献
