Enzymic synthesis of di- and tri-saccharide glycosides, using glycosidases and beta-D-galactoside 3-alpha-sialyl-transferase.

The following disaccharide glycosides were obtained in yields of 10-35% from the appropriate donor and acceptor glycosides by employing glycosidases as catalysts: alpha-D-Galp-(1----3)-alpha-D-GalpNAc-OEt (alpha-D-galactosidase), beta-D-Galp-(1----3)-alpha-D-GalpNAc-OEt and beta-D-Galp-(1----3)-beta-D-GalpNAc-OEtBr (beta-D-galactosidase), beta-D-GlcpNAc-(1----6)-beta-D-Galp-OMe and beta-D-GlcpNAc-(1----6)-alpha-D-Manp-OMe (beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase). With beta-D-GlcpNAc-OEtSiMe3 as the acceptor, beta-D-galactosidase gave beta-D-Galp-(1----3)-beta-D-GlcpNAc-OEtSiMe3 almost exclusively, whereas, with beta-D-GlcpNAc-OMe as the acceptor, beta-D-Galp-(1----3)-beta-D-GlcpNAc-OMe was formed in only slightly excess over teh analogous beta-(1----4)-linked glycoside. The use of beta-D-galactosidase and beta-D-galactoside 3-alpha-sialyltransferase in sequence provided a convenient route to the trisaccharide glycosides alpha-D-Neup5Ac-(2----3)-beta-D-Galp-(1----3)-alpha-D-GalpNAc-OEt, alpha-D-Neup5Ac-(2----3)-beta-D-Galp-(1----3)-beta-D-GalpNAc-OE tBr, and alpha-D-Neup5Ac-(2----3)-beta-D-Galp-(1----3)-beta-D-GlcpNAc-OMe.

Stereoselective synthesis of O-serinyl/threoninyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha- or beta-glycosides.

General glycosidation methodology has been developed which can selectively provide 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha- or beta-glycosides of beta-hydroxy-alpha-amino acid derivatives [glucopyranoside-(8, 43), galactopyranoside- (9, 13), mannopyranoside- (10), lactoside analogs (11, 38) and 3-O-beta-galactopyranosyl-mannopyranoside (12)] stereoselectively in excellent yield from the highly nucleophilic alpha-imino esters (Schiff bases) of L-serine and L-threonine. Various glycosides were converted via their amino and acetamido derivatives to Fmoc-protected serinyl- or threoninyl-glycosides (24-28, 37, 41, 46) which are all suitable building blocks for the solid-phase synthesis of O-glycopeptides. Complete 1H- and 13C-NMR data are provided for all compounds.

Temperature-induced ultraviolet difference absorption spectrometry for determination of enthalpy changes. Binding of 4-methylumbelliferyl glycosides to four lectins.

Raising the temperature in a single mixture of a lectin and a chromophoric glycoside allows determination of the binding enthalpy. This is made possible by continuously monitoring the displacement of the complex from its equilibrium concentration with a sensitive difference absorption spectrophotometer. The method is illustrated with the following lectins: concanavalin A, soybean agglutinin, peanut agglutinin and Erythrina cristagalli agglutinin. The ligands are 4-methylumbelliferyl glycosides. The binding enthalpies found range from -60 kJ X mol-1 for the Gal beta 1----3GalNAc-beta glycoside and peanut agglutinin to -30 kJ X mol-1 for a monosaccharide glycoside and the other lectins.

Bioconversion of steroid glycosides by Nocardia restricta.

The bioconversion of steroid alkaloid tomatine by Nocardia restricta yields the conjugate with lactic acid. We studied the bioconversion of some steroid glycosides without a nitrogen atom in the molecule to determine the effect of the nitrogen atom. The glycosides were of three different types: sterol glycosides, bufadienolide rhamnoside and steroid saponine. The results of bioconversions showed that Nocardia restricta converts steroid glycosides differently according to the sugar bound to the steroid aglycone. It can be concluded that in the absence of a nitrogen atom in the steroid molecule no conjugation with lactic acid by Nocardia restricta occurs.

Flavone glycosides from Asplenium normale.

Eight flavone glycosides were isolated from fronds of Asplenium normale, its two varieties, var. boreale and var. shimurae, and related species, A. oligophlebium. Six of the glycosides were identified: apigenin 7-O-dirhamnoside and 7-O-glucosylrhamnoside, luteolin 7-O-dirhamnoside and 7-O-glucosylrhamnoside, genkwanin 4'-O-glucosylrhamnoside, and vicenin-2. The remaining two glycosides were tentatively characterized as genkwanin 4'-O-glycoside and 6,8-di-C-glycosylluteolin. The four taxa analysed in this survey all had distinctive flavonoid profiles.

Cyanogenic and non-cyanogenic glycosides from Manihot esculenta.

In addition to lotaustralin and linamarin, a novel cyanogenic glycoside, 2-((6-O-(beta-D-apiofuranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)oxy)-2-met hylbutanenitrile , two novel non-cyanogenic glycosides, (2S)-((6-O-(beta-D-apiofuranosyl)-beta-D- glucopyranosyl)oxy)butane and 2-((6-O-(beta-D-apiofuranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl)oxy)propane, and a simple non-cyanogenic glycoside, ethyl beta-D-glucopyranoside, were isolated from an ethanolic extract of the fresh root cortex of Manihot esculenta. From a methanolic extract of the fresh leaves of this species lotaustralin and linamarin, and two flavonoid glycosides, kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside and quercetin-3-O-rutinoside were isolated.

Effect of marine glycosides on adenosinetriphosphatase activity.

Marine glycosides from the sea cucumbers Actinopyga agassizi, Holothuria atra, Bohadschia argus, Cucumaria fraudatrix, Astichopus multifidus and Thelenota ananas inhibit both Na+-K+ ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase of rat brain in vitro. The glycoside-cholesterol complex of these compounds does not influence ATPase activity. Asterosaponins from starfishes Linckia guildingi and Linckia laevigata possess a slight inhibiting effect. The triterpene glycosides from sea cucumbers are more powerful inhibitors than steroidal glycosides from starfishes.

Specificity of cardiac glycoside binding to membrane filters.

Two cardiac glycosides, with different physiochemical properties, were investigated to assess their binding characteristics to filters. The lipophilic cardiac glycoside, digoxin, demonstrated significant (10%) retention to certain cellulose filters. There were considerable differences in the amount of digoxin retained among the cellulose type filters. The polycarbonate type filter (10 microns thick) demonstrated less than 2% retention. This was similar in magnitude to the cellulose-acetate-nitrate ester filters (100 microns thick) which demonstrated less than 1% retention. Ouabain, the polar cardiac glycoside, appeared to have minimal (2%) retention on all filter types tested. Increasing the size of the pore from .4 microM to .8 microM resulted in a minimal decrease in retention for the Amicon filters, whereas the nucleopore polycarbonate filters demonstrated a significant reduction in retention of the lipophilic cardiac glycoside. A comparison of the 100 micron thick filters with the 10 micron thick filters suggests that there is no correlation with the thickness of the filter and the retention of the drug bound by that filter. These studies suggest that lipophilic drugs are retained on membrane filters depending on the filter's composition and that caution should be utilized with the filtration technique.

Solasodine glycosides. In vitro preferential cytotoxicity for human cancer cells.

Solamargine [(22R,25R)-spiro-5-en-3 beta-yl-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl- (1----2glu)-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranozyl (1----4glu)-beta-D-glucopyranoze], a glycoside of solasodine preferentially inhibits the uptake of tritiated thymidine by cancer cells. In contrast, solamargine at equivalent concentration, and the mono- and diglycosides of solasodine have a limited effect on the uptake of tritiated thymidine for other cell types, including unstimulated lymphocytes and lymphocytes stimulated with Con A. In contrast the solasodine glycosides do not inhibit the uptake of tritiated thymidine by lymphocytes stimulated with PHA or PWM. The inhibition of tritiated thymidine uptake by solamargine and the mono- and di-glycosides of solasodine are dependent upon their cellular uptake by endogenous endocytic lectins (EELs). The mode of action of the solasodine glycosides, in particular solamargine, appears to be the induction of cell lysis, as determined by morphological examination.

Biodistribution of two 99mTc-cardiac glycosides with end glucose unit: effect of lipophilicity on their relative myocardial accumulation.

In biodistribution experiments with tritium labelled cardiac glycoside it was observed that compounds of low lipophilicity showed a considerably higher affinity towards myocardium with respect to other tissues and organs. A similar trend was also observed with 99mTc-cardiac glycosides except for one compound with glucose residue, which in spite of its lower lipophilicity exhibited an unexpectedly low heart to non-target concentration ratio, thereby indicating a possible influence of carbohydrate residue on biodistribution. To confirm this, in this article we radiolabelled two glucose containing cardiac glycosides (K-strophanthin-beta and K-strophanthoside) with 99mTc and, in biodistribution experiments, less lipophilic 99mTc-K-strophanthoside showed a much better heart to non-target ratio over 99mTc-K-strophanthin-beta. It is thus concluded that, in addition to lipophilicity, the affinity of the carbohydrate residue for non-target organs is also an important consideration in determining the structure-distribution relationship of 99mTc-cardiac glycosides.

Simple preparations of alkyl and cycloalkyl alpha-glycosides of maltose, cellobiose, and lactose.

Alkyl, cycloalkyl, allyl, 4-pentenyl, and benzyl alpha-glycosides of maltose, cellobiose, and lactose were prepared (17-77% yield; alpha/beta=70/30-96/4) via a direct reaction of the free disaccharides with a binary AcBr-AcOH mixture, followed by glycosidation with alcohol using FeCl3 in MeNO2 or CH2Cl2, Zemplén deacetylation, and resolution of the anomeric mixture of glycosides by chromatography. Using MeCN as solvent for the glycosidation step, the corresponding beta-biosides were also prepared (16-61% yield; alpha/beta=25/75-5/95).

Characterisation of proanthocyanidin aglycones and glycosides from rose hips by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and their rapid quantification together with vitamin C.

Fifteen individual proanthocyanidin aglycones and 19 glycosides, together with a complex mixture of chromatographically non-separated tetra- to octameric proanthocyanidin glycosides were detected--the non-separated glycosides being novel natural products--and characterised from dog rose hips using high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS). Along with these phenolics, a 50% aqueous ethanol extract of rose hips was found to contain high levels of Vitamin C. A simple and rapid HPLC method assisted by diode array detection for the estimation of the total concentration of proanthocyanidin aglycones and glycosides, as well as Vitamin C, in rose hip extracts was developed.

Data-directed scan sequence for the general assignment of C-glycosylflavone O-glycosides in plant extracts by liquid chromatography-ion trap mass spectrometry.

An ion trap LC-MS/MS method is described for the analysis of C-glycosylflavone O-glycosides in crude methanolic extracts of plants. The method employs survey scans with and without the application of up-front collision induced dissociation (CID) to generate diagnostic ions for data-directed MS/MS. The spectra acquired allow assignment of the C-linked sugar to either the C-6 or C-8 position of the aglycone and provide data on the molecular mass of the compound, the number and type of O-linked sugars and the molecular mass of the flavone aglycone. These data for the majority of C-glycosylflavone O-glycosides in an extract are obtained automatically in one LC-MS/MS analysis without manual pre-programming. Key to the assignment of the C-6 or C-8 site of C-glycosylation is the generation, by up-front CID, of the (0,1)X+ product ion formed by internal cleavage of the C-linked sugar. MS/MS of this ion is found to have diagnostic value in addition to the (0,2)X+ product ion described by other authors. Ion trap MS/MS spectra of [M+H]+ of the 6,8-di-C-glycosylflavones schaftoside and isoschaftoside show an additional and previously unreported diagnostic product ion that is useful in determining the type of sugar at the C-6 position. The product ion spectra of protonated kaempferol 3-O-glucosylrhamnosides show similarities to the spectra of C-glycosylflavone O-glycosides; this is a potential source of confusion if the analysis of such glycosides is limited solely to MS/MS of [M+H]+.

Separation of O- and C-allyl glycoside anomeric mixtures by capillary electrophoresis and high-performance liquid chromatography.

Rapid and reliable methods for the analysis of O- and C-allyl galactopyranosides and glucopyranosides are presented, based on capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC). In MEKC, the formation of chromophoric and charged complexes between the saccharides and borate as well as the hydrophobic interactions with micelles jointly contributed to the selective separation and sensitive detection of all the investigated anomeric couples. Some non-purified synthesis mixtures of C-allyl glycosides were successfully characterised without pre-treatment. MEKC buffer conditions for which glycosides separation was successfully achieved were then exported and applied to reverse-phase liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), for the quantitative isolation of each allyl glycoside anomer. Identification of the obtained anomeric products was performed by electrospray mass spectrometry and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. Glycoside-solvent interactions driving the selective anomeric separation were shortly addressed and discussed on the basis of sugar derivatives structural differences.

Establishment of mass spectrometric fingerprints of novel synthetic cholesteryl neoglycolipids: the presence of a unique C-glycoside species during electrospray ionization and during collision-induced dissociation tandem mass spectrometry.

In this study we evaluated the fragmentation pattern of 16 novel amphiphilic neoglycolipid cholesteryl derivatives that can be efficiently used to increase cationic liposomal stability and to enhance gene transfer ability. These neoglycolipids bear different sugar moieties, such as D-glucosamine, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, N-trideuterioacetyl-D-glucosamine, N-acetyllactosamine, L-fucose, N-allyloxycarbonyl-D-glucosamine, and some of their per-O-acetylated derivatives. Regardless of the structure of the tested neoglycolipid, QqToF-MS analysis using electrospray ionization (ESI) source showed abundant protonated [M+H]+ species. We also identified by both QqToF-MS and low-energy collision tandem mass spectrometry (CID-MS/MS) of the [M+H]+ ion, the presence of specific common fingerprint fragment ions: [Cholestene]+, sugar [oxonium]+, [(Sugar-spacer-OH)+H]+, [oxonium-H2O]+, and [(Cholesterol-spacer-OH)+H]+. In addition, we observed a unique ion that could not be rationally explained by the expected fragmentation of these amphiphilic molecules. The structure of this ion was tentatively proposed with that of a C-glycoside species formed by a chemical reaction between the sugar portion and the cholesterol. MS/MS analysis of this unique [C-glycoside]+ confirmed the validity of the proposed structure of this ion. The presence of an amino group at position C-2 and free hydroxyl groups of the sugar motif is crucial for the formation of a "reactive" sugar oxonium ion that can form the [C-glycoside]+ species. In summary, we precisely established the fragmentation patterns of the tested series of neoglycolipid cholesteryl derivatives and authenticated their structure as well; moreover, we speculated on the formation of a C-glycoside with the ESI source under atmospheric pressure and in the collision cell during MS/MS analysis.

Estrogenic activity of triterpene glycosides in yeast two-hybrid assay.

Estrogenic potency of six triterpene glycosides, Holothurin A, Holotoxin A1, Frondoside A, Cucumarioside A2-2 and Cauloside C, that are natural products and semi-synthesized Ginsenoside-Rh2, were examined with yeast two-hybrid system, including expressed genes of human estrogen receptor, hERalpha, the co-activator TIF2 and lacZ as a reporter gene. Only Ginsenoside-Rh2 exhibited significant moderate estrogenic activity in the concentration range of 10(-7) to 10(-6)M. Its effect was approximately 30% of the activity of 17beta-estradiol applied at half-effective concentration. This indicates Ginsenosides-Rh2 is a weak phytoestrogen. The sea cucumber triterpene glycosides, Holothurin A, Holotoxin A1, Cucumarioside A2-2 and Frondoside A, and plant glycoside Cauloside C had no appreciable estrogenic activity. Data obtained by yeast two-hybrid assay reflect structure-activity relationship between tested compounds and 17beta-estradiol. Only Ginsenoside-Rh2 has some similarity in chemical structure with 17beta-estradiol that might explain affinity of this glycoside to the hERalpha receptor.

A survey of the flavonoid glycosides of selected taxa in the genus Veronica yielded two new acylated 5,6,7,3',4'-pentahydroxyflavone (6-hydroxyluteolin) glycosides and two unusual allose-containing acylated 5,7,8,4'-tetrahydroxyflavone (isoscutellarein) glycosides. The new compounds were isolated from V. liwanensis and V. longifolia and identified using NMR spectroscopy as 6-hydroxyluteolin 4'-methyl ether 7-O-alpha-rhamnopyranosyl(1"'-->2")[6"-O-acetyl-beta-glucopyranoside] and 6-hydroxyluteolin 7-O-(6"-O-(E)-caffeoyl)-beta-glucopyranoside, respectively. Isoscutellarein 7-O-(6"'-O-acetyl)-beta-allopyranosyl(1"'-->2")-beta-glucopyranoside was obtained from both V. intercedens and V. orientalis and its 4'-methyl ether from V. orientalis only. Complete 1H and 13C NMR spectral assignments are presented for both isoscutellarein glycosides.
