Morgan, Amanda J. published the artcileDetection of Cyclooxygenase-2-Derived Oxygenation Products of the Endogenous Cannabinoid 2-Arachidonoylglycerol in Mouse Brain, Recommanded Product: 2-(1-(4-Chlorobenzoyl)-5-methoxy-2-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-1-morpholinoethanone, the publication is ACS Chemical Neuroscience (2018), 9(7), 1552-1559, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) catalyzes the formation of prostaglandins, which are involved in immune regulation, vascular function, and synaptic signaling. COX-2 also inactivates the endogenous cannabinoid (eCB) 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) via oxygenation of its arachidonic acid backbone to form a variety of prostaglandin glyceryl esters (PG-Gs). Although this oxygenation reaction is readily observed in vitro and in intact cells, detection of COX-2-derived 2-AG oxygenation products has not been previously reported in neuronal tissue. Here we show that 2-AG is metabolized in the brain of transgenic COX-2-overexpressing mice and mice treated with the lipopolysaccharide to form multiple species of PG-Gs that are detectable only when monoacylglycerol lipase is concomitantly blocked. Formation of these PG-Gs is prevented by acute pharmacol. inhibition of COX-2. These data provide evidence that neuronal COX-2 is capable of oxygenating 2-AG to form a variety PG-Gs in vivo and support further investigation of the physiol. functions of PG-Gs.

Yu, Shun published the artcileStability of human serum albumin structure upon toxin uptake explored by small angle neutron scattering, COA of Formula: C8H6KNO4S, the publication is Polymer (2018), 175-183, database is CAplus.

The possible denaturation or tertiary structural changes of human serum albumin (HSA) upon adsorption of uremic toxin was investigated using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Calorimetric data in previous studies provided proof of binding between HSA and 2 classes of uremic toxins: (1) small-mol.-weight (SMW) toxins and (2) middle-mol.-weight (MMW) toxins. Polyacrylic acid, a representative polyelectrolyte of neg. net charge, was used as a model MMW toxin and 2 mols. [phenylacetic acid (PhAA) and indoxyl sulfate (IDS)] represented the SMW toxins. The present study found no proof of destabilization of the protein structure upon toxin uptake. Analyzing the structure factor of scattering intensities from high concentrated protein samples complexed with PhAA and IDS showed that interaction between native and complexed HSA was also not altered. However, a small effect of the net charge of HSA was found in the case of urea-modified proteins.

Li, Jason Z. published the artcileMechanistic studies of cancer cell mitochondria- and NQO1-mediated redox activation of beta-lapachone, a potentially novel anticancer agent, COA of Formula: C18H16N2O6, the publication is Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology (2014), 281(3), 285-293, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Beta-lapachone (beta-Lp) derived from the Lapacho tree is a potentially novel anticancer agent currently under clin. trials. Previous studies suggested that redox activation of beta-Lp catalyzed by NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) accounted for its killing of cancer cells. However, the exact mechanisms of this effect remain largely unknown. Using chemiluminescence and ESR (EPR) spin-trapping techniques, this study for the first time demonstrated the real-time formation of ROS in the redox activation of beta-lapachone from cancer cells mediated by mitochondria and NQO1 in melanoma B16-F10 and hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cancer cells. ES936, a highly selective NQO1 inhibitor, and rotenone, a selective inhibitor of mitochondrial electron transport chain (METC) complex I were found to significantly block beta-Lp meditated redox activation in B16-F10 cells. In HepG2 cells ES936 inhibited beta-Lp-mediated oxygen radical formation by ∼ 80% while rotenone exerted no significant effect. These results revealed the differential contribution of METC and NQO1 to beta-lapachone-induced ROS formation and cancer cell killing. In melanoma B16-F10 cells that do not express high NQO1 activity, both NOQ1 and METC play a critical role in beta-Lp redox activation. In contrast, in hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells expressing extremely high NQO1 activity, redox activation of beta-Lp is primarily mediated by NQO1 (METC plays a minor role). These findings will contribute to our understanding of how cancer cells are selectively killed by beta-lapachone and increase our ability to devise strategies to enhance the anticancer efficacy of this potentially novel drug while minimizing its possible adverse effects on normal cells.

Taddeini, L. published the artcileInhibition of the Ehrlich reaction of porphobilinogen by indican and related compounds, Safety of Potassium 1H-indol-3-yl sulfate, the publication is Clinica Chimica Acta (1962), 890-1, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

From a study of the Ehrlich reaction of porphobilinogen (I) and related compounds, it was found that K indoxylsulfate (urinary indican) as well as certain other members of the indole series are markedly inhibitory. Because of the importance of this finding for detection of I in the urine, a study on the inhibitory effect of indican was made. The results revealed an inhibitory effect of indican on the I aldehyde color intensity, increasing from about 35% at a concentration of indican of 0.625 × 10^-4 millimole/ml. to over 85% at a concentration of 2.50 × 10^-4. Complete inhibition of the I aldehyde color reaction was obtained with an indican concentration of 5.00 × 10^-4. Indole and 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (II) are also inhibitory to about the same degree as indican. The inhibition was not due to complexing of indoles with I since the addition of the indole to the fully developed solution of the I-aldehyde compound also produced rapid fading of the color. The mechanism responsible for the inhibition is the nucleophilic addition of indoles to the I-aldehyde compound This yields a colorless intermediary, p-dimethylaminophenylpyrrylindolylmethane. Indican inhibits the Ehrlich reaction of opsopyrroledicarboxylic acid (III) to a lesser extent (35% as compared with 86% in a 2:1 molar ratio), and II has essentially no inhibitory effect under the same conditions. III is structurally similar to I except in lacking the α-aminomethyl group of the latter compound The much smaller inhibition of III thus suggests that the α-aminomethyl group (which is protonated in the presence of the Ehrlich reagent), activated the I-aldehyde compound with respect to nucleophilic attack of the indole. However, indole itself inhibits the aldehyde reaction of III to at least 95%, in a 2:1 molar ratio. Thus, it is evident that the character of the substituents of the indole is also a factor of importance. The present observations on the inhibition of the I-Ehrlich reaction by indican and other indolic compounds clarify the recent finding that an unknown inhibitor is present in some I-containing urines responsible for false neg. Ehrlich reactions.

Kim, S. H. published the artcileInhibition of p21 and Akt potentiates SU6656-induced caspase-independent cell death in FRO anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cells, Related Products of indole-building-block, the publication is Hormone and Metabolic Research (2013), 45(6), 408-414, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

SU6656 is a small-mol. indolinone that selectively inhibits Src family kinase and induces death of cancer cells. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of SU6656 on cell survival and to assess the role of p21 and PI3K/Akt signaling in cell survival resulting from SU6656 treatment in anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) cells. When 8505C, CAL62, and FRO ATC cells were treated with SU6656, the viability of 8505C and CAL62 ATC cells decreased only after treatment with SU6656 at a dosage of 100 μM for 72 h, while the viability of FRO ATC cells decreased after treatment with SU6656 in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Cell viability was not changed by pretreatment with the broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor z-VAD-fmk. Phospho-Src protein levels were reduced, and p21 protein levels were elevated. Phospho-ERK1/2 protein levels were multiplied without alteration of total ERK1/2, total Akt, and phospho-Akt protein levels. Regarding FRO ATC cells, the decrement of cell viability, the increment of cleaved PARP-1 protein levels, and the decrement of phospho-Src protein levels were shown in p21 siRNA- or LY294002-pretreated cells compared to SU6656-treated control cells. ERK1/2 siRNA transfection did not affect cell viability and protein levels of cleaved PARP-1, p21, and Akt. In conclusion, these results suggest that SU6656 induces caspase-independent death of FRO ATC cells by overcoming the resistance mechanism involving p21 and Akt. Suppression of p21 and Akt enhances the cytotoxic effect of SU6656 in FRO ATC cells.
