Summary In order to enforce different spatial orientations in the C-terminal hexapeptide of neurotensin (NT8–13) and to gain information about the importance of the 10–11 peptide bond for binding to NT receptors, the Pro10-Tyr11 fragment has been replaced with (2R,8S,8aR)-, (2S,8S,8aR)-, (2S,8S,8aS)-, (2S,8R,8aS)- and (2R,8R,8aS)-8-amino-2-benzyl-3-oxoindolizidine-2-carboxylic acid. Molecular dynamics calculations and energy minimization studies have shown that, contrarily to the Pro-Tyr moiety, none of these indolizidines display a tendency to adopt type I and III -turns, but those having (8S,8aR) or (8R,8aS) stereochemistry essentially adopt extended conformations and the (8S,8aS) stereoisomer prefers a nonstandard folding. The four diastereomeric NT8–13 analogues incorporating (8S,8aR) or (8R,8aS) indolizidines displayed binding affinities for the brain NT receptor similar to that of [Ala11]-NT8–13 and only five- to ninefold lower than that of the corresponding analogue, [Phe11]NT8–13. Although this slight decrease could be attributed to differences in conformational behavior between these constrained NT8–13 analogues and [Phe11]NT8–13 or NT8–13, it is not clear whether the -turn around Pro10-AA11 (AA=Phe, Tyr) is conserved upon receptor binding. An excessive restriction in the motions of the aromatic side chain, imposed by the highly steric constraint of the indolizidine moiety, emerges as an alternative explanation. The findings reported here demonstrate the possibility of replacing the Pro10-Tyr11 dipeptide in NT8–13 with a non-peptide residue without affecting considerably the affinity for brain NT receptors. 相似文献

Gadolinium-containing carbon nanomaterials are a new class of contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging. They are characterized by a superior proton relaxivity to any current commercial gadolinium contrast agent and offer the possibility to design multifunctional contrasts. Intense efforts have been made to develop these nanomaterials because of their potential for better results than the available gadolinium contrast agents. The aim of the present work is to provide a review of the advances in research on gadolinium-containing carbon nanomaterials and their advantages over conventional gadolinium contrast agents. Due to their enhanced proton relaxivity, they can provide a reliable imaging contrast for cells, tissues or organs with much smaller doses than currently used in clinical practice, thus leading to reduced toxicity (as shown by cytotoxicity and biodistribution studies). Their active targeting capability allows for improved MRI of molecular or cellular targets, overcoming the limited labelling capability of available contrast agents (restricted to physiological irregularities during pathological conditions). Their potential of multifunctionality encompasses multimodal imaging and the combination of imaging and therapy. 相似文献

Cisplatin (CDDP) is a chemotherapeutic agent that produces nephrotoxicity associated with oxidative/nitrosative stress. α-Mangostin (α-M) is a xanthone extracted from mangosteen with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the renoprotective effect of α-M on the CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity. α-M was administered (12.5 mg/kg/day, i.g.) for 10 days (7 days before and 3 days after CDDP injection). On day 7, rats were treated with a single injection of CDDP (7.5 mg/Kg, i.p.); 3 days after the rats were killed. α-M attenuated renal dysfunction, structural damage, oxidative/nitrosative stress, decrease in catalase expression and increase in mRNA levels of tumour necrosis factor alpha and transforming growth factor beta. In conclusion the renoprotective effect of α-M on CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity was associated with the attenuation in oxidative/nitrosative stress and inflammatory and fibrotic markers and preservation of catalase activity. 相似文献

Abstract A series of 5′-O-[[[[(alkyl)oxy]carbonyl] amino] sulfonyl] uridines have been synthesized by reaction of cyclohexanol, palmityl alcohol, 1,2-di-O-benzoylpropanetriol and 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzoyl-L-glucopyranose with chlorosulfonyl isocyanate and 2,3′-O-isopropylidene-uridine. Another series of 5′-O-(N-ethyl and N-isopropylsulfamoyl) uridines have been prepared by reaction of 2′,3′-O-isopropylidene and 2′,3′-di-O-acetyluridine with N-ethylsulfamoyl and N-isopropylsulfamoyl chlorides. All compounds were tested against HSV-2, VV, SV and ASFV viruses. 2′,3′-Di-O-acetyl-5′-O-(N-ethyl and N-isopropylsulfamoyl) uridine showed significant activities against HSV-2. 5′-O-[[[[(2,3,4,6-Tetra-O-benzoyl-β-L-glucopyranosyl)oxy]carbonyl]amino] sulfonyl]-2′,3′-O-isopropylideneuridine was very active against ASFV. 相似文献

Abstract The synthesis of 2-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-and 2-(tetrahydropyran-2-yl)-4-halomethylthiazoles from 2, 5-anhydro-D-allonthioamide and tetrahydropyran-2-thiocarboxamide is described. Bromination of 2-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)- and 2-tetrahydropyran-2-yl)-4-methylthiazole with NBS is studied. Cytostatic activity against HeLa cells of all the compounds is reported. 相似文献

Olive breeding programmes are focused on selecting for traits as short juvenile period, plant architecture suited for mechanical harvest, or oil characteristics, including fatty acid composition, phenolic, and volatile compounds to suit new markets. Understanding the molecular basis of these characteristics and improving the efficiency of such breeding programmes require the development of genomic information and tools. However, despite its economic relevance, genomic information on olive or closely related species is still scarce. We have applied Sanger and 454 pyrosequencing technologies to generate close to 2 million reads from 12 cDNA libraries obtained from the Picual, Arbequina, and Lechin de Sevilla cultivars and seedlings from a segregating progeny of a Picual × Arbequina cross. The libraries include fruit mesocarp and seeds at three relevant developmental stages, young stems and leaves, active juvenile and adult buds as well as dormant buds, and juvenile and adult roots. The reads were assembled by library or tissue and then assembled together into 81 020 unigenes with an average size of 496 bases. Here, we report their assembly and their functional annotation. 相似文献

Hemolytic activity and siderophore production in different Aeromonas species isolated from fish 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The hemolytic activity and siderophore production of several strains of motile aeromonads were determined. The hemolytic activity of Aeromonas caviae and Aeromonas eucrenophila was enhanced after trypsinization of the samples. The enhancement of hemolysis was observed in strains that carried an aerolysin-like gene, detected by a PCR procedure. Siderophore production was demonstrated in all but one strain of Aeromonas jandaei. No apparent relationship was observed between the presence of plasmid DNA and hemolysis or siderophore production. 相似文献

AIMS: This work was carried out to study the acid production by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis strains isolated from goat's milk and goat cheese (Valdeteja variety) in order to select a suitable starter culture for industrial goat cheese manufacturing. METHODS AND RESULTS: The titrable acidity of 45 Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis strains isolated from a home-made batch of Valdeteja cheese with excellent sensory characteristics was measured over a period of 18 h. The strains were divided into two groups depending on the acid production rate: 20 fast acid producer (F) strains and 25 slow acid producer (S) strains. The kinetic parameters (lag phase, maximum acid production rate and value of upper asymptote curve) of the acid production curves for F and S strains were significantly (P < 0.001) different. CONCLUSIONS: Significant (P < 0.001) differences between titrable acidity of F and S strains were observed after the second hour of incubation. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: An F strain acetoin producer (Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis 470Ch2) was selected as autochthonous starter culture for industrial Valdeteja goat cheese manufacturing. 相似文献
