Structure−Activity Relationships of Lysophosphatidic Acid: Conformationally Restricted Backbone Mimetics
摘要:
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) has associated with it an intriguing cell biology that is thought to be mediated through its interaction with G-protein coupled receptor(s). In an effort to extend the structure-activity relationships of LPA, we have produced a series of LPA analogues in which the glycerol core in LPA was replaced with conformationally restricted aryl substructures. The aryl substructures encompassed aminophenol, resorcinol, dihydroxy benzophenone, and tocopherol systems. The benzophenone moiety was investigated both as a conformationally restricting substructure for LPA and as a possible photoreactive alkylating agent for the LPA receptor(s). All LPA analogues were evaluated for their potency and efficacy in mobilizing calcium ions from internal stores in MDA MB-231 cells. Ten of the 14 analogues exhibited activity in this assay at doses up to 5 mu M; none of the compounds exhibited nonreceptor-mediated lytic activity at this maximal concentration. The receptor response showed surprising tolerance for manipulation in the backbone region of LPA, although none of the compounds were equipotent to LPA. This tolerance for a variety of structures has given us new leads into the realization of novel agonists and antagonists of the LPA receptor(s).

The invention provides coloring composition for color filters making use of a pigment, in which the dispersed state of the pigment is stable without using any surfactant, and so aggregation is hard to occur, and which permits formation of high-definition and high-quality images excellent in color rendition, transparency and contrast, and a simple production process thereof, by which the use of surfactants can be abolished, or the amount of surfactants used can be reduced to a great extent. The coloring composition for color filters is provided by using at least a coloring material obtained by coating at least part of surfaces of pigment particles with polyhydroxyalkanoate, and a dispersion medium for the coloring material.
