Structure-activity relationship of short-chain sphingoid bases as inhibitors of sphingosine kinase
摘要:
Short-chain sphinganine analogues 8, 9, 18, and 19 as well as 3-fluoro-sphingosine analogues 25 and 26 were synthesized. Their potential as sphingosine kinase inhibitors was investigated, in combination with previously synthesized sphingosine and fluorinated sphinganine analogues. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.

A series of D-erythro- and L-threo-ceramide analogues was synthesized and investigated for their ability to reverse the inhibitory effects of fumonisin B-1 (FB1) on axonal growth in hippocampal neurons. The analogues contained either a C-7 Side chain or a phenyl group substituted for the C-13 residue present in naturally occurring ceramides, while the N-acyl chain length was reduced from C-16-C-24 to C-2-C-8. D-erythro-Ceramide 18a with a C-7 Side chain and an N-acetyl residue and D-erythro-ceramide 20c with an aromatic side chain and an N-hexanoyl residue were most active in reversing the inhibitory effects of FB1 on axonal growth, although the mechanism remains unclear.
