Enantioselective Diels-Alder reactions with N-hydroxy-N-phenylacrylamide.

[reaction: see text] The use of hydroxamic acids as templates for Lewis acid catalyzed enantioselective Diels-Alder reactions has been examined. A very simple chiral Lewis acid, prepared by mixing optically pure binaphthol with 3 equiv of trimethylaluminum, catalyzes the [4 + 2] cycloaddition of N-hydroxy-N-phenylacrylamide with cyclopentadiene at 0 degrees C in high yield (>96%) and with a fairly good level of enantioselectivity (91% ee). Facile conversion of the products to the corresponding alcohols or aldehydes makes the hydroxamic acid intermediates particularly useful.

Modern diagnostics in chronic myeloproliferative diseases (CMPDs).

According to the new WHO classification a group of chronic myeloproliferative diseases (CMPDs) were defined: chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL), chronic eosinophilic leukemia and hypereosinophilic syndrome (CEL/HES), polycythemia vera (PV), chronic idiopathic myelofibrosis (with extramedullary hematopoiesis, CIMF), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and so called CMPD/unclassifiable. As clinical features and laboratory findings differ widely between these diseases several diagnostic approaches are mandatory at diagnosis for classification and are needed also for follow up studies, especially for the measurement of minimal residual disease (MRD). We here outline the laboratory set up at diagnosis and during follow up in CMPDs with specific focus on the respective therapeutical consequences. Only by using a comprehensive diagnostic panel including cytomorphology, cytogenetics, and molecular genetic methods establishing the correct diagnosis, optimizing treatment as well as evaluating treatment response is possible in CMPDs today.

Siderochromes from Pseudomonas fluorescens. II. Structural homology as revealed by NMR spectroscopy.

Ferribactin and the pyoverdines, siderochromes that are obtained from liquid cultures of Pseudomonas fluorescens cells, have been studied and compared by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The proton spectra of the iron-free compounds show that the pyoverdines share with ferribactin a common feature, formyl hydroxamic acid groups, that previously had only been observed in hadacidin, and antitumor antibiotic produced by Penicillium frequentans. The 1H and 13C NMR data confirm that ferribactin is a nonapeptide that contains two residues each of lysine and N6-formyl-N6-hydroxyornithine. This corrects an earlier report (Maurer, B., Müller, A., Keller-Schierlein, W., and Zähner, H. (1968) Arch. Mikrobiol. 60, 326-339) ascribing two acetyl hydroxamic acid groups and three lysyl residues to ferribactin. Similarly, the spectroscopic data show that pyoverdine lacks the Glx and Tyr residues present in ferribactin. On the basis of the compositional analogy exhibited by pyoverdine and ferribactin, it is suggested that the two siderochromes may be metabolically related. The 13C NMR spectra of pyoverdine indicate that its fluorescent component is a nine-carbon aromatic heterocycle, probably identical with an o-dihydroxyquinoline chromophore found in pseudobactin, a fluorescent siderophore produced by Pseudomonas B10.

Effect of 4'-halogen substitution on the mutagenicity of trans-4-acetamidostilbene and trans-4-(N-hydroxyacetamido)stilbene in the Salmonella typhimurium test system.

The effect of halogen substituents placed at the 4' position of trans-4-acetamidostilbene (1, AAS) to alter the pattern of biotransformation and thus the mutagenicity of these derivative was evaluated by comparing the mutagenic effects of 1 on Salmonella typhimurium TA-100 with the corresponding 4'-F (2), 4'-Cl (3), and 4'-Br (4) analogues. The mutagenic properties of trans-4-(N-hydroxyacetamido)stilbene (5) and its 4'-F (6), 4'-Cl (7), and 4'-Br (8) derivatives were also evaluated in this system. Both the amides (1-4) and hydroxamic acids (5-8) required the presence of a metabolic activating system prepared from hamster liver in order to produce a mutagenic effect. All of these compounds were mutagenic to A-100. Their mutagenic potencies were markedly influenced by the 4'-halogen substituents, the relative mutagenic potencies of the amides being 2 (4'-F) greater than 1 (4'-H), 3 (4'Cl) greater than 4 (4'-Br), while the hydroxamic acids followed the order of 1 (4'-H) greater than 2 (4'-F) greater than 3 (4'-Cl), 4 (4'-Br).

Pyrimidine-2,4,6-Triones: a new effective and selective class of matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc endopeptidases that have been implicated in various disease processes. Different classes of MMP inhibitors, including hydroxamic acids, phosphinic acids and thiols, have been previously described. Most of these mimic peptides and most likely bind in a similar way to the corresponding peptide substrates. Here we describe pyrimidine-triones as a completely new class of metalloprotease inhibitors. While the pyrimidine-trione template is used as the zinc-chelating moiety, the substituents have been optimized to yield inhibitors comparable in their inhibition efficiency of matrix metalloproteinases to hydroxamic acid derivatives such as batimastat. However, they are much more specific for a small subgroup of MMPs, namely the gelatinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9).

Irreversible inhibition of the cytosolic metabolism of N-hydroxy-2-acetylaminofluorene by its glycolyl analog.

The glycolyl hydroxamic acid derivative of 2-aminofluorene was found to be a potent inhibitor of its own metabolism and the metabolism of N-hydroxy-2-acetylaminofluorene by rat liver cytosol. The inhibition was irreversible, as well as time and concentration dependent, which indicates a suicide-inhibition type of metabolism. There was a direct correlation between the inhibition of N-hydroxy-2-acetylaminofluorene disappearance and 2-acetylaminofluorene formation. In contrast, both the glycolyl and acetyl hydroxamic acid derivatives were metabolized to a similar extent by enzymes in the microsomal fraction.

Effect of sugars and amino acids on membrane potential in two clones of sugarcane.

Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) leaf parenchyma cells bathed in 1X solution maintained an average membrane potential of -135 millivolts in the dark. No difference in membrane potential was found between clones 51 NG 97 and H50 7209. An electrogenic pump appears to contribute to membrane potential in these cells. Sugars (25 millimolar) added externally caused the following membrane potential depolarizations (in millivolts) in clone 51 NG 97: glucose, 18 +/- 4; galactose, 24 +/- 7; 3-O-methylglucose, 10 +/- 4; sucrose, 22 +/- 3; fructose, 21 +/- 7; raffinose, 9 +/- 3; mannitol, 0; lactose, 0; melibiose, 0; and 1-O-methyl-alpha-galactose, 0. Glycine (25 millimolar) and serine (10 millimolar) caused depolarizations of 47 +/- 7 and 23 +/- 2 millivolts, respectively. Depolarization shows saturation kinetics with respect to glucose concentration, with a K(m) of 3 to 6 millimolar. The metabolic inhibitors KCN and salicyl hydroxamic acid together caused depolarization of the membrane potential and greatly inhibited depolarization by 25 millimolar glucose and 25 millimolar raffinose. In a series of substitution experiments, glucose (25 millimolar) caused almost total inhibition of depolarization by raffinose, sucrose, and 3-O-methylglucose (all 25 millimolar), but only partial inhibition of depolarization to 25 millimolar glycine. Glycine (25 millimolar), also, only partially inhibited depolarization by 25 millimolar glucose. Total depolarization to 25 millimolar glycine and 25 millimolar glucose was comparable to the amount of depolarization of membrane potential caused by 1 millimolar KCN plus 1 millimolar salicyl hydroxamic acid. The results are consistent with a co-transport mechanism of membrane transport, with sugars and amino acids being transported by separate carrier systems.

Metabolism of drugs in the eye. Drug-reducing activity of preparations from bovine ciliary body.

Drug-metabolizing activities, especially the reductase activities towards N-oxide, hydroxamic acid, sulfoxide and nitro compounds were comparatively examined with bovine ciliary body. As described previously, the cytosol from the ocular tissue exhibits the nicotinamide N-oxide reductase activity when supplemented with 2-hydroxypyrimidine, an electron donor of aldehyde oxidase. When the cytosol was fractionated with ammonium sulfate, followed by assays of aldehyde oxidase and nicotinamide N-oxide reductase activities in each fraction, the distribution of aldehyde oxidase activity in the resultant ammonium sulfate fractions was nearly parallel to that of nicotinamide N-oxide reductase activity. Furthermore, reductase activities towards drugs such as sulfoxide, hydroxamic acid and nitro compounds were observed with the cytosol in the presence of 2-hydroxypyrimidine or N1-methylnicotinamide. In general, these reductase activities of the fraction were markedly inhibited by menadione, an inhibitor of aldehyde oxidase. These results suggest that aldehyde oxidase present in ciliary body plays an important role in the reduction of a variety of xenobiotics in mammalian eyes. However, in the case of imipramine N-oxide, its reduction in the ocular tissue appears to be more readily catalyzed by a menadione-linked enzyme different from aldehyde oxidase.

Glucuronidation of carcinogenic arylamine metabolites by rat liver microsomes.

Since 2-acetylaminofluorene (2-AAF), 4-acetylaminobiphenyl (4-AABP) and 2-aminonaphthalene (2-AN) display varying degrees of carcinogenicity in the rat, which is capable of N-acetylating arylamines, an attempt was made to correlate the difference in carcinogenicity of these compounds with the ease of O-glucuronidation of their hydroxamic acids by rat hepatic microsomes, a reaction believed to be a detoxification mechanism. UDP-glucuronosyltransferase activity of rat hepatic microsomes was activated by Triton X-100. Glucuronidation by Triton X-100 activated microsomes of the N-hydroxy derivative of 2-AN was approximately 1.5 and 1.8 times faster than the corresponding derivatives of 2-aminofluorene (2-AF) and 4-aminobiphenyl (4-ABP) respectively. However, glucuronidation of the N-hydroxy-N-acetyl derivative of 2-AN was 40 and 17 times faster than the corresponding derivatives of 2-AF and 4-ABP respectively. Aroclor 1254 and 3-methylcholanthrene, but not phenobarbital, acetanilide and butylated hydroxytoluene, induced the enzyme for the glucuronidation of 2-AN derivatives. The present study (1) demonstrates an inverse relationship between the carcinogenicity of 2-AN, 4-AABP and 2-AAF and the ease of glucuronidation of their hydroxamic acid derivatives, and (2) suggests that, in addition to N- and C-hydroxylation, glucuronidation may play an important role in determining the carcinogenicity of arylamines and arylacetamides in the rat.

Synthesis and evaluation of N-(phenylalkyl)acetohydroxamic acids as potential substrates for N-arylhydroxamic acid N,O-acyltransferase.

N-(4-Phenylcyclohexyl)acetohydroxamic acid and a series of N-(phenylalkyl)acetohydroxamic acids were synthesized and evaluated as substrates for partially purified rat and hamster hepatic arylhydroxamic acid N,O-acyltransferase systems (AHAT). The compounds were assayed for their abilities to function as acetyl donors in the AHAT-mediated transacetylation of 4-aminoazobenzene and for their abilities to participate in the AHAT-mediated conversion of N-arylhydroxylamines to electrophilic intermediates that form methylthio adducts upon reaction with N-acetylmethionine. None of the newly synthesized compounds displayed significant activity in either of the assays. The results of this study indicate that acetohydroxamic acids that have the nitrogen atom of the hydroxamic acid group attached directly to aliphatic or cycloalkyl groups are not likely to serve as substrates or inhibitors of AHAT.

Aluminum chelation: chemistry, clinical, and experimental studies and the search for alternatives to desferrioxamine.

This review focuses on aluminum (Al) chelation, its chemistry and biology. The toxicology and biology of Al in mammalian organisms are briefly reviewed to introduce the problems associated with excessive Al exposure and accumulation and the challenges facing an effective Al chelator. The basics of Al chelation chemistry are considered to help the reader understand the Al chelation chemical literature. The chemical properties of Al enable prediction of effective functional groups for Al chelation. A compilation of distribution coefficients between octanol and aqueous phases (Do/a) for chelators and their complexes with Al shows the effect of complexation on lipophilicity. A compilation of stability constants for Al.chelator complexes illustrates the role of oxygen in ligands that form stable complexes. The history of clinical Al chelation therapy is reviewed, with emphasis on desferrioxamine (DFO), which has been extensively used since 1980. The beneficial and adverse effects and limitations of DFO use in end-stage renal-diseased patients, in patients with neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, and in animal models of Al intoxication are presented. The methods to evaluate potential Al chelators in vitro, in vivo, and using computer modeling are discussed. The Al chelation literature is reviewed by the chemical class of chelators, including fluoride, carboxylic acids, amino acids, catechols, polyamino carboxylic acids, phenyl carboxylic acids, the hydroxypyridinones, and hydroxamic acids.

The maize alternative oxidase 1a (Aox1a) gene is regulated by signals related to oxidative stress.

We isolated and characterized the expression of Aox1a, a member of the maize alternative oxidase (Aox) small multigene family. Aox1a consists of four exons interrupted by three introns and its promoter harbors diverse stress-specific putative regulatory motifs pointing to complex regulation and response to multiple signals. Responses of Aox1a to such signals were examined and compared with those of maize glutathione S-transferase I (GstI), a typical oxidative stress inducible gene. Potassium cyanide (KCN) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) induced a rapid increase of the Aox1a and GstI transcripts, which was persisted in prolonged treatment at high H2O2 concentration only for Aox1a. High concentration of salicylic acid (SA) and salicyl hydroxamic acid (SHAM) induced Aox1a mRNA only after prolonged exposure, while GstI displayed an early strong induction, which declined thereafter. Nitric oxide (NO) induced a high increase of Aox1a after prolonged exposure at high concentration, while GstI displayed a weak response. Our results show that multiple signaling pathways, involved in stress responses, also participate and differentially regulate Aox1a and GstI in maize. A ROS-depended signaling event may be involved, suggesting an essential role of Aox1a under oxidative stress in maize.

The interaction of histone deacetylase inhibitors and DNA methyltransferase inhibitors in the treatment of human cancer cells.

The potential anticancer activities of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors and DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitors have been extensively studied in recent years. HDAC inhibitors suppress the activities of multiple HDACs, leading to an increase in histone acetylation. This histone acetylation induces an enhancement of the expression of specific genes that elicit extensive cellular morphologic and metabolic changes, such as growth arrest, differentiation and apoptosis. DNMT inhibitors, such as 5-aza-cytidine (5-aza-CR) and 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-aza-CdR) are also widely studied because DNA hypomethylation induces the re-activation of tumor suppressor genes that are silenced by methylation-mediated mechanisms. Recently, the combination of HDAC inhibitors or demethylating agents with other chemo-therapeutics has gained increasing interest as a possible molecularly targeted therapeutic strategy. In particular, the combination of HDAC inhibitors with demethylating agents has become attractive since histones are connected to DNA by both physical and functional interactions. To date, the accumulating evidence has confirmed the hypothesis that the combination of HDAC and DNMT inhibition is very effective (and synergistic) in inducing apoptosis, differentiation and/or cell growth arrest in human lung, breast, thoracic, leukemia and colon cancer cell lines. This review will discuss the in vitro effects of HDAC inhibitors, such as trichostatin A (TSA), sodium butyrate, depsipeptide (FR901228, FK228), valproic acid (VPA) and suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), and the demethylating agent, 5-aza-CdR used alone and in combination treatment of human cancer cells and the possible mechanisms involved.

[Thieno[3,2-c]quinoline-4-yl-amines--synthesis and investigation of activity against malaria].

Thieno[3,2-c]quinoline-4-yl-amines - synthesis and investigation of activity against malaria pH-Dependant reduction of the methyl 2-(2-nitrophenyl)thiophene-3-carboxylate 3, formed by Suzuki coupling of methyl 2-iodothiophene-3-carboxylate (2) with 2-nitrophenylboronic acid, yielded the cyclic hydroxamic acid 4 and the lactam 5, respectively. The 4-chlorothieno[3,2-c]quinoline 6 was formed from the lactam 5 by heating with POCI3/PCI5s. Melting of 6 with the novaldiamine base in phenol gave the chloroquine analogue 7, whereas the amodiaquine and the pyronaridine analogues 8 and 9 were obtained using phenol Mannich bases. The reaction of 6 with putrescine and N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)piperazine as spacer formed the bisquinoline derivatives 10 and 11 as well as the monosubstituted quinoline 12. In the same manner the isomeric 4-chlorothieno[2,3-c]quinoline 13 reacted to yield the quinoline-4-yl-amines 14-16. The compounds 7-12 and 14-16 were tested for in vitro growth inhibition of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. As most active compound the pyronaridine derivative 9 displayed an IC50 value of 210 nM with the chloroquine sensitive P. falciparum strain 3D7 and 750 nM with the chloroquine resistant P. falciparum strain Dd2. The N,N'-bis(3-aminopropyl)piperazine derivative 11 displayed in vivo activity in Plasmodium vinckei infected mice with an ED50 value of 30 mg/kg after i.p. administration.

Hydroxamate-induced spectral perturbations of cobalt Aeromonas aminopeptidase.

The absorption spectrum of cobalt(II)-substituted Aeromonas aminopeptidase is markedly perturbed by the presence of equimolar concentrations of D-amino acid hydroxamates and acyl hydroxamates that have previously been shown to be powerful inhibitors of this enzyme (Wilkes, S. H., and Prescott, J. M. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 13517-13521). D-Valine hydroxamate produces the most distinctive perturbation, splitting the characteristic 527 nm absorption peak of the cobalt enzyme to form peaks at 564, 520, and 487 nm with molar extinction values of 126, 98, and 67 M-1 cm-1, respectively. A qualitatively similar perturbation, albeit with lower extinction values, results from the addition of D-leucine hydroxamate, whereas D-alanine hydroxamate perturbs the spectrum, but does not evoke the peak at 564 nm. In contrast, hydroxamates of L-valine and L-leucine in concentrations equi-molar to that of the enzyme produce only faint indications of change in the spectrum, but the hydroxamates of several other L-amino acids perturb the spectrum essentially independently of the identity of the side chain and in a qualitatively different manner from that of D-valine hydroxamate and D-leucine hydroxamate. At the high enzyme:substrate ratios used in the spectral experiments, L-leucine hydroxamate and L-valine hydroxamate proved to be rapidly hydrolyzed, hence their inability to perturb the spectrum of the cobalt-substituted enzyme during the time course of a spectral experiment. Values of kcat for L-amino acid hydroxamates, all of which are good reversible inhibitors of the hydrolysis of L-leucine-p-nitroanilide by Aeromonas aminopeptidase, were found to range from 0.01 min-1 to 5.6 min-1 for the native enzyme and from 0.27 min-1 to 108 min-1 for the cobalt-substituted enzyme; their km values toward the cobalt aminopeptidase range from 1.2 X 10(-7) M to 1.9 X 10(-5) M. The mutual exclusivity of binding for hydroxamate inhibitors and 1-butaneboronic acid, previously shown by kinetics (Baker, J. O., Wilkes, S. H., Bayliss, M. E., and Prescott, J. M. (1983) Biochemistry 22, 2098-2103), was reflected in the characteristic spectra produced by these two types of inhibitors.
