Rose Bengal analogs and vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUTs)
摘要:
Vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUTs) allow the loading of presynaptic glutamate vesicles and thus play a critical role in glutamatergic synaptic transmission. Rose Bengal (RB) is the most potent known VGLUT inhibitor (K-i 25 nM); therefore we designed, synthesized and tested in brain preparations, a series of analogs based on this scaffold. We showed that among the two tautomers of RB, the carboxylic and not the lactonic form is active against VGLUTs and generated a pharmacophore model to determine the minimal structure requirements. We also tested RB specificity in other neurotransmitter uptake systems. RB proved to potently inhibit VMAT (K-i 64 nM) but weakly VACHT (K-i > 9.7 mu M) and may be a useful tool in glutamate/acetylcholine co-transmission studies. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

A new process for the manufacture of iodinated xanthenes in high purity includes a cyclization step followed by an iodination step. No extraction, chromatographic or solvent concentration steps are required, and the intermediate as well as final compounds are isolated via filtration or similar means. The process requires a single organic solvent, and the steps are completed at temperatures below 100° C. The exclusion of chloride ions, of chloride free-radicals, hypochlorite ions, or hypochlorous acid as reagents or from reagents that may generate these species in situ in the presence of oxidants, prevents undesirable impurity formation. Several new compounds have been conceived and isolated using these methods. These new compounds are also formed into new medicaments.
