The structure of pectins, which depends on the extraction method, is decisive in their capacity to induce apoptosis on several cancer cell lines like colon, prostate and breast. In this work, sugar beet pectin extraction was performed in the following steps： lipid extraction with hexane, removal of soluble complex carbohydrates and proteins, and enzymatic treatment with amyloglucosidase, protease, and pectinase. The enzymatic treatment was carried out with Rohapect DA6L under the following conditions： 50℃, pH 4.0, 2% enzyme/substrate （E/S） ratio, 15 h, and a solid to liquid ratio of 1 ： 10. The pectic extract showed a degree of polymerization （DP） profile of 55.8% with DP≥7; 4.9% with DP6; 5.8% between DP2 and DP6 ; 4.7% with DP2; and 28.8% with DP1. The pectic extract was examined for its antiproliferative activity on the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. At a concentration range of 12.5-25 mg/mL the pectic extract killed 80.6% of the cells, exhibiting a higher antiproliferative activity than 4-hydroxytamoxifen （4- OHT）, a classical anticancer drug, which killed 56.5% of the cells.展开更多

In this paper, we first studied the transformation of soybean isoflavones with the homogenized slurry of Ganoderma lucidum. The resultant transformed products（TSI） contained（703.21±4.35） mg/g of genistein, with transformed rates of 96.63% and 87.82% of daidzein and genistein, respectively, and TSI also could enrich the bioactive metabolites of G. lucidum. The antitumor effects of TSI on human colorectal cancer cell line HTL-9, human breast cancer cell line MCF-7, and human immortalized gastric epithelial cell line GES-1 were also studied. The 3-（4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl）-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide（MTT） assay showed that TSI could dramatically reduce the viability rates of HTL-9 cells and MCF-7 cells without detectable cytotoxicity on GES-1 normal cells when the TSI concentration was lower than 100 μg/ml. With 100 μg/ml of TSI, HTL-9 cells were arrested in the G1 phase, and late-apoptosis was primarily induced, accompanied with partial early-apoptosis. TSI could induce primarily earlyapoptosis by arresting cells in the G1 phase of MCF-7 cells. For HTL-9 cells, Western-blot and reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction（RT-PCR） analysis showed that TSI（100 μg/ml） can up-regulate the expression of Bax, Caspase-3, Caspase-8, and cytochrome c（Cyto-c）, indicating that TSI could induce cell apoptosis mainly through the mitochondrial pathway. In addition, the expression of p53 was up-regulated, while the expression of Survivin and nuclear factor κB（NF-κB） was down-regulated. All these results showed that TSI could induce apoptosis of HTL-9 cells by the regulation of multiple apoptosis-related genes.展开更多

文摘Three novel norcantharidin acylamide acids （L1 =N-thiadiazole norcantharidin acylamide acid, CIoHIlN304S; L2=N-thiazole norcantharidin acylamide acid, CjIHI2N204S and L3=N-benzothiazole norcantharidin acylamide acid, C15H14N204S） were synthesized by the reactions of norcantharidin （NCTD=7-oxabicyclo[2,2,1 ]heptane-2,3- dicarboxylic acid anhydride, C8H8O4） with 2-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole （C2H3N3S）, 2-aminothiazole （C3H4N2S） and 2-aminobenzothiazole （C7H6N2S）, respectively. Their structures were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and NMR. The inhibition rates of L3 was much higher than those of Lj and L2 against human hepatoma cells SMMC7721 cell lines in vitro. The interaction between the compounds and DNA was studied by means of fluorescence quenching studies and viscosity measurements. The emission intensities decreased obviously with increasing concentration of the compounds in the fluorescence quenching experiments. The linear Stern-Volmer quenching constant Ksq values were 0.62 （Ll）, 0.55 （L2） and 1.08 （L3）, respectively. The binding abilities followed the trend from high to low were L3, L1 and L2, respectively. The results of viscosity measurements showed that L1 and L2 might bind to DNA via partial intercalation, while L3 bound mainly in intercalation.
文摘In the last years, sugar beet pectins have been the subject of several investigations involving extraction methodologies, chemical composition and functional properties. The structure of pectins, which depends on the extraction method, is decisive in their capacity to induce apoptosis on several cancer cell lines like colon, prostate and breast. In this work, sugar beet pectin extraction was performed in the following steps： lipid extraction with hexane, removal of soluble complex carbohydrates and proteins, and enzymatic treatment with amyloglucosidase, protease, and pectinase. The enzymatic treatment was carried out with Rohapect DA6L under the following conditions： 50℃, pH 4.0, 2% enzyme/substrate （E/S） ratio, 15 h, and a solid to liquid ratio of 1 ： 10. The pectic extract showed a degree of polymerization （DP） profile of 55.8% with DP≥7; 4.9% with DP6; 5.8% between DP2 and DP6 ; 4.7% with DP2; and 28.8% with DP1. The pectic extract was examined for its antiproliferative activity on the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. At a concentration range of 12.5-25 mg/mL the pectic extract killed 80.6% of the cells, exhibiting a higher antiproliferative activity than 4-hydroxytamoxifen （4- OHT）, a classical anticancer drug, which killed 56.5% of the cells.
文摘A series of cyclopropane-1,1-diamide derivatives containing imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine were synthesized.The inhibitory effects of these compounds on FLT3-ITD kinase and their anti-proliferative activities against two acute myeloid leukemia cell lines expressing FLT3-ITD were evaluated.With focused on the different substitutions of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine,a preliminary exploration of the structure-activity relationship was conducted for 22 compounds.The results revealed that most compounds exhibited certain inhibitory effects on FLT3-ITD kinase with IC_(50) values below 0.5μmol·L^(-1).Among them,N-(4-fluorophenyl)-N-(4-(7-((2-morpholinoethyl)carbamoyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carbonyl)phenyl)cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxamide(12a)demonstrated the most potent FLT3-ITD kinase inhibitory activity and the strongest anti-proliferative effect on the MV4-11 and MOLM-13 cell lines expressing FLT3-ITD with IC50 values of 0.06 and 0.2μmol·L^(-1),respectively.Moreover,compound 12a did not exhibit anti-proliferative activity against cell lines without FLT3 mutations,such as THP-1,HCT-116,A549,HepG2,K562,and MCF-7,and it displayed non-cytotoxicity towards normal human renal tubular epithelial cells(HK-2),human liver progenitor cells(HepaRG),and HEK293(human embryonic kidney cells).Although 12a exhibits inferior inhibitory activity against FLT3-ITD kinase and anti-tumor cell proliferation compared to C abozantinib in this study,it can provide a reference for further research into FLT3-ITD inhibitors.

Their antiproliferative activities against two cancer cell lines were tested by the MTT method in vitro. Three of compounds （1e, 1g, and 1h） exhibited potent antiproliferative activities, especially compound lh （with IC50 values of 5.2 μmol/L and 1.9 μmol/L against Bel-7402 and HT-1080, respectively）. The preliminary structure-activity relationships of 5H-pyridazino[4,5-b]indole derivatives were discussed.
文摘Soybean isoflavones have been one of the potential preventive candidates for antitumor research in recent years. In this paper, we first studied the transformation of soybean isoflavones with the homogenized slurry of Ganoderma lucidum. The resultant transformed products（TSI） contained（703.21±4.35） mg/g of genistein, with transformed rates of 96.63% and 87.82% of daidzein and genistein, respectively, and TSI also could enrich the bioactive metabolites of G. lucidum. The antitumor effects of TSI on human colorectal cancer cell line HTL-9, human breast cancer cell line MCF-7, and human immortalized gastric epithelial cell line GES-1 were also studied. The 3-（4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl）-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide（MTT） assay showed that TSI could dramatically reduce the viability rates of HTL-9 cells and MCF-7 cells without detectable cytotoxicity on GES-1 normal cells when the TSI concentration was lower than 100 μg/ml. With 100 μg/ml of TSI, HTL-9 cells were arrested in the G1 phase, and late-apoptosis was primarily induced, accompanied with partial early-apoptosis. TSI could induce primarily earlyapoptosis by arresting cells in the G1 phase of MCF-7 cells. For HTL-9 cells, Western-blot and reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction（RT-PCR） analysis showed that TSI（100 μg/ml） can up-regulate the expression of Bax, Caspase-3, Caspase-8, and cytochrome c（Cyto-c）, indicating that TSI could induce cell apoptosis mainly through the mitochondrial pathway. In addition, the expression of p53 was up-regulated, while the expression of Survivin and nuclear factor κB（NF-κB） was down-regulated. All these results showed that TSI could induce apoptosis of HTL-9 cells by the regulation of multiple apoptosis-related genes.
