The crystal of the title compound belongs to orthorhombic, space group Pna21 with a = 14.730(6), b = 5.478(2), c = 22.619(9) A, Z = 8, V = 1825.0(13) A3, Dc = 1.574 g/cm3,/a = 0.547 mm-1, F(000) = 896, R = 0.0767 and wR (I〉 2o(/)) = 0.2064. X-ray analysis indicates that in this crystal double enantiomers are found as the basically asymmetrical unit and interactions between S(1)...N(3), S(3)...N(4) and S(3)...N(7) are observed. This kind of interactions extends the molecules into a one-dimensional double chain. The preliminary biological test showed that the title compound had insecticidal activity against Myzus persicae in a certain degree and also presented moderate potential bioactivity against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV).展开更多

These cells were pretreated with BSO for 24 h and then with AZA for different times. We examined the effects of this combination on some proteins and on cellular death. We also studied the eff icacy and the safety of AZA (6 mg/kg per day) and BSO (90 mg/kg per day) in HepG2 tumor growth in vivo using athymic mice. We measured safety by serological markers such as aminotransferases and creatine kinase.RESULTS: The in vitro studies revealed a new mechanism of action for the AZA plus BSO combination in the cancer cells compared with other thiopurines (6-mercaptopurine, 6-methylmercaptopurine, 6-thioguanine and 6-methylthioguanine) in combination with BSO. The cytotoxic effect of AZA plus BSO in HepG2 cells resulted from necroptosis induction in a mitochondrial-dependent manner. From kinetic studies we suggest that glutathione (GSH) depletion stimulates c-Jun amino-terminal kinase and Bax translocation in HepG2 cells with subsequent deregulation of mitochondria (cytochrome c release, loss of membrane potential), and proteolysis activation leading to loss of membrane integrity, release of lactate dehydrogenase and DNA degradation. Some of this biochemical and cellular changes could be reversed by N-acetylcysteine (a GSH replenisher). In vivo studies showed that HepG2 tumor growth was inhibited when AZA was combined with BSO.CONCLUSION: Our studies suggest that a combination of AZA plus BSO could be useful for localizedtreatment of hepatocellular carcinoma as in the currently used transarterial chemoembolization method.展开更多

Methods: Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was used to observe the inhibition of BSO and radiation on cell proliferation, and to investigate the sensitizing effect of BSO on esophageal cancer cell line TE-1. Flow cytometry (FCM) was used to observe the effect of BSO and radiation on cell apoptosis and cycle. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot were used to observe the effect of BSO on manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) mRNA and protein expression. Results: BSO could inhibit the proliferation of TE-1 esophageal cancer cells, and had significant dose- and time-dependent radiosensitizing effects on TE-1 esophageal cancer cells. After the combined effects of BSO and radiation on TE-1 cells, the rate of apoptosis and G2/M phase proportion increased significantly, and MnSOD mRNA and protein expression decreased. Conclusion: BSO may reduce MnSOD mRNA and protein expression by affecting TE-1 cell cycle, thus inhibiting and inducing the apoptosis of esophageal cancer cells and enhancing the killing effect of the radiation on esophageal cancer cells.展开更多

DL-Buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO) 500 mg/kg was administered intraperitoneally to male Wistar rats. The rats were killed at 1, 3, 6, 12 hours, and 1, 3, 5 days after BSO administration, and the bilateral femora were removed. A group not administered BSO (control group) was also studied (each group n = 5). In the femoral heads of each group, the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) as an index of hypoxia was confirmed by the Western blot method, and quantified using analytical software. In the femoral head increased HIF-1α expression was found in all groups from 1 hour after BSO administration (p < 0.05). In particular, in all specimens of the group 3 hours after BSO administration the most intense expression of HIF-1α amounting to about 13-fold of that of control group was noted (p < 0.001). The present results suggested that in the extremely short period of 3 hours after BSO administration hypoxia severe enough to cause osteonecrosis was induced by oxidative stress in the rat femoral head.展开更多

METHODS: Two MM-derived cell lines RPMI8226 and U266 cells were used as in vitro models. Cell apoptosis was assessed by morphology, flow cytometry, and DNA gel electrophoresis. Mitochondrial transmembrane potentials (delta psi m) were evaluated by measuring cellular Rhodamine 123 staining intensity. Protein expression was analyzed using Western blot. RESULTS: Zero point one to 0.5 mumol/L As2O3 inhibited cell proliferation and 2.0 mumol/L As2O3 induced cell apoptosis, while 1.0 mumol/L As2O3 inhibited proliferation with a weak degree of apoptosis induction in RPMI8226 and U266 cell lines. As2O3-induced apoptosis was accompanied by mitochondrial transmembrane potentials (delta psi m) collapse and caspase-3 activation in the presence of intact membrane. Glutathione depleter buthionine sulfoximine enhanced, while disulfide bond-reducing agent dithiothreitol partially antagonized As2O3-induced delta psi m collapse and apoptosis in MM cells. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) could also induce apoptosis in RPMI8226 cells, but it did not show any cooperative effects with As2O3. CONCLUSION: As2O3 exerts apoptosis-inducing and growth-inhibiting effects on MM cells, and mitochondrium is a pivotal and common target of As2O3 for apoptosis induction.展开更多

Herein, we disclose a novel strain-release strategy to access stereospecific and chemoselective SIV-arylation and alkenylation of sulfinamides using arynes and strained cyclic alkynes. This method tolerates an unprecedented chemical diversity of functional groups attached to the nitrogen center(N-R). The origin of the high SIV-selectivity is elucidated by density functional theory calculations, suggesting a stepwise mechanism for the aryne substrates and a concerted mechanism for the cyclic alkynes.展开更多

Introducing the sulfoximine structure into medicinal compounds as exciting motifs has brought opportunities in drug discovery. In order to develop new ryanodine receptor (RyR) modulators, a series of phthalamides containing sulfoximine derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated against oriental armyworm and diamondback moth for their insecticidal activities. These studies helped to elucidate the electronic and structural requirements around the sulfoximine motif for insecticidal activity. All new structures were synthesized and characterized by ^1H NMR, ^13C NMR, HRMS and bioassay and a preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) was discussed. The biological assessment indicated that most title compounds showed good to excellent larvicidal activities. Compounds la, le, and If gave excellent insecticidal activity against oriental armyworm, which showed 100% larvicidal activity at 0.5 mg/L. All compounds showed 100% larvicidal activity at 0.1 mg/L against diamondback moth. In particular, the larvicidal activities of le, If, and lh at 0.0001 mg/L were 50%, 20%, and 40%, respectively, reaching an activity as high as that of the commercial flubendiamide (40%, 0.0001mg/L). Therefore, Ia, Ie, If and Ih could be considered as new lead structures for the development of new ryanodine receptor (RyR) modulators.展开更多

文摘Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate the sensitizing effect of buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) and radiation on esophageal cancer cell line TE-1. Methods: Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was used to observe the inhibition of BSO and radiation on cell proliferation, and to investigate the sensitizing effect of BSO on esophageal cancer cell line TE-1. Flow cytometry (FCM) was used to observe the effect of BSO and radiation on cell apoptosis and cycle. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot were used to observe the effect of BSO on manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) mRNA and protein expression. Results: BSO could inhibit the proliferation of TE-1 esophageal cancer cells, and had significant dose- and time-dependent radiosensitizing effects on TE-1 esophageal cancer cells. After the combined effects of BSO and radiation on TE-1 cells, the rate of apoptosis and G2/M phase proportion increased significantly, and MnSOD mRNA and protein expression decreased. Conclusion: BSO may reduce MnSOD mRNA and protein expression by affecting TE-1 cell cycle, thus inhibiting and inducing the apoptosis of esophageal cancer cells and enhancing the killing effect of the radiation on esophageal cancer cells.
文摘Using a rat oxidative stress-induced femoral head osteonecrosis model, we determined the presence/ absence and timing of the generation of hypoxia in the femoral head. DL-Buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO) 500 mg/kg was administered intraperitoneally to male Wistar rats. The rats were killed at 1, 3, 6, 12 hours, and 1, 3, 5 days after BSO administration, and the bilateral femora were removed. A group not administered BSO (control group) was also studied (each group n = 5). In the femoral heads of each group, the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) as an index of hypoxia was confirmed by the Western blot method, and quantified using analytical software. In the femoral head increased HIF-1α expression was found in all groups from 1 hour after BSO administration (p < 0.05). In particular, in all specimens of the group 3 hours after BSO administration the most intense expression of HIF-1α amounting to about 13-fold of that of control group was noted (p < 0.001). The present results suggested that in the extremely short period of 3 hours after BSO administration hypoxia severe enough to cause osteonecrosis was induced by oxidative stress in the rat femoral head.

文摘Due to the conformational stability and straightforward synthesis,centrally chiral organic small molecules serve as ideal candidates for constructing multi-resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence(CP-MR-TADF)materials,exhibiting circularly polarized luminescence(CPL)properties.However,the advancement of CP-MR-TADF materials exhibiting point chirality remains restricted primarily to carbon-based chiral compounds,and the sulfur-centered structures are very few.Herein,we report the synthesis of six pairs of sulfur-centered CP-MR-TADF enantiomers,achieved by covalently fusing N-substituted sulfoximine fragments featuring sulfur stereocenters to a widely used multiple resonance parent core.These novel CP-MRTADF materials demonstrate blue-green or green emission peaking at 495-509 nm with narrow full widths at half maximum of less than 30 nm,small singlet-triplet energy gaps of down to 0.03 eV and high photoluminescence quantum yields of up to 92.8%.Furthermore,all enantiomers exhibit notable CPL properties with dissymmetry factors ranging from 0.6×10^(-3)to 5.4×10^(-3).This effort broadens the range of chiral CP-MR-TADF materials featuring sulfur-centered configurations and establishes a foundation for innovative molecular design strategies and potential applications in devices.

文摘OBJECTIVE: To investigate the response of multiple myeloma (MM) cells to arsenic trioxide (As2O3) and their possible mechanisms. METHODS: Two MM-derived cell lines RPMI8226 and U266 cells were used as in vitro models. Cell apoptosis was assessed by morphology, flow cytometry, and DNA gel electrophoresis. Mitochondrial transmembrane potentials (delta psi m) were evaluated by measuring cellular Rhodamine 123 staining intensity. Protein expression was analyzed using Western blot. RESULTS: Zero point one to 0.5 mumol/L As2O3 inhibited cell proliferation and 2.0 mumol/L As2O3 induced cell apoptosis, while 1.0 mumol/L As2O3 inhibited proliferation with a weak degree of apoptosis induction in RPMI8226 and U266 cell lines. As2O3-induced apoptosis was accompanied by mitochondrial transmembrane potentials (delta psi m) collapse and caspase-3 activation in the presence of intact membrane. Glutathione depleter buthionine sulfoximine enhanced, while disulfide bond-reducing agent dithiothreitol partially antagonized As2O3-induced delta psi m collapse and apoptosis in MM cells. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) could also induce apoptosis in RPMI8226 cells, but it did not show any cooperative effects with As2O3. CONCLUSION: As2O3 exerts apoptosis-inducing and growth-inhibiting effects on MM cells, and mitochondrium is a pivotal and common target of As2O3 for apoptosis induction.

文摘Due to a novel mode action,low toxicity to mammals and low residue characteristics,phthalic acid diamides have aroused considerable interests in agricultural chemistry.With introduction of N-cyano,N-trifluoroacetyl,N-carbamoylsulfiliminyl and sulfoximinyl substituents into phthalamides,12 novel derivatives containing trifluoromethyl moiety were designed and synthesized.All title compounds were characterized by ^(1)H NMR and high-resolution mass spectrometry.The preliminary results of biological activity assessment indicated that some title compounds exhibited moderate to good insecticidal activities against oriental armyworm(Pseudaletia separata Walker).In particular,Va gave higher activity against oriental armyworm and diamondback moth.The present work reported that the new trifluoromethylated diamides incorporating N-trifluoroacetylsulfoximinyl moieties are potential lead compounds for further structure optimization,providing some insight into the relating structure-activity relationship.

文摘An efficient nucleophilic difluoro(phenylsulfonimidoyl)methylation of unactivated primary alkyl bromides with PhSO(NTBS)CF_(2)H has been developed.It is particularly remarkable that,when 1.5 equiv.of alkyl bromides are used,the substitution products are obtained in moderate to excellent yields.The prepared difluoro(phenylsulfonimidoyl)methylated alkanes can be readily transformed to gem-difluoroalkenes via base-mediatedβ-elimination reaction.

文摘The conversion of commercially available chiral sulfinamides into pharmaceutically useful chiral sulfoximines via direct SIVfunctionalization is synthetically attractive but challenging due to the competitive reaction of N-functionalization. Herein, we disclose a novel strain-release strategy to access stereospecific and chemoselective SIV-arylation and alkenylation of sulfinamides using arynes and strained cyclic alkynes. This method tolerates an unprecedented chemical diversity of functional groups attached to the nitrogen center(N-R). The origin of the high SIV-selectivity is elucidated by density functional theory calculations, suggesting a stepwise mechanism for the aryne substrates and a concerted mechanism for the cyclic alkynes.

文摘The sulfoximine group has been evaluated as a pharmacophore. Introducing the sulfoximine structure into medicinal compounds as exciting motifs has brought opportunities in drug discovery. In order to develop new ryanodine receptor (RyR) modulators, a series of phthalamides containing sulfoximine derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated against oriental armyworm and diamondback moth for their insecticidal activities. These studies helped to elucidate the electronic and structural requirements around the sulfoximine motif for insecticidal activity. All new structures were synthesized and characterized by ^1H NMR, ^13C NMR, HRMS and bioassay and a preliminary structure-activity relationship (SAR) was discussed. The biological assessment indicated that most title compounds showed good to excellent larvicidal activities. Compounds la, le, and If gave excellent insecticidal activity against oriental armyworm, which showed 100% larvicidal activity at 0.5 mg/L. All compounds showed 100% larvicidal activity at 0.1 mg/L against diamondback moth. In particular, the larvicidal activities of le, If, and lh at 0.0001 mg/L were 50%, 20%, and 40%, respectively, reaching an activity as high as that of the commercial flubendiamide (40%, 0.0001mg/L). Therefore, Ia, Ie, If and Ih could be considered as new lead structures for the development of new ryanodine receptor (RyR) modulators.
