Synthetic studies on the relationship between anti-HIV activities and micelle forming abilities of various alkylated glycyrrhetinate diglycoside sodium sulfates and related compounds
摘要:
Sodium sulfates 11-14, 29-32, 35 and 37 of various alkyl glycyrrhizin and related compounds were synthesized. In vitro anti-HIV activities of the sulfates were compared to the activities of glycyrrhizin 1 in the inhibition of replications of HTLV-III and GUN-4. The activities of the sulfates were increased 11.1, 15.2, 9.1 and 5.0 times for 11-14, 100.0, 125.5, 83.3 and 11.6 times for 29-32, and 11.6 and 50.0 times for 35 and 37. From the relationship between CMC values and anti-HIV activities of the sulfates, it appeared that the sulfates exhibiting more potent antiviral activities had higher micelle forming abilities. Sodium sulfates having a triterpenoid or steroid ring in the molecule showed more potent activities than those of thioglycosides which had no such ring. From the investigation of syncytium formation, we suggest that the active sulfates inhibited HIV-1 infection early in the replication cycle of the virus.

We consider glycyrrhizin to be a new ligand for liposomes to the liver because it is known that about 80% of glycyrrhizin is excreted into the bile after intravenous administration in rats. In order to modify the liposomal surface with glycyrrhizin, 30-stearyl glycyrrhizin (GLOSt), one of the lipophilic glycyrrhizin derivatives, was synthesized. The structure of this new compound was identified by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), infrared (IR) and mass spectra (MS). Sonicated liposomes were prepared from hydrogenated egg phosphatidylcholine-cholesterol-GLOSt or dicetyl phosphate (DCP)(4 : 4 : 1) and were labelled with [3H]inulin as an aqueous marker. It was confirmed by measuring the encapsulation efficiencies and the mean diameters that GLOSt-containing sonicated liposomes (GLOSt-SUV) were SUV-type as well as DCP-containing control liposomes (control-SUV). Four hours after intravenous injection into rats at a dose of 90 μmol as total lipid per kg of rat body weight, GLOSt-SUV showed 4-fold more accumulation (42.4%) in the liver than control-SUV. Therefore, glycyrrhizin is considered to be a useful new ligand on liposomes for targeting to the liver.
