Design and photophysical properties of new RGD targeted tetraphenylchlorins and porphyrins
摘要:
The synthesis, characterization, fluorescence, and singlet oxygen quantum yields of tetraphenylporphyrin and tetraphenylchlorin coupled to RGD type peptide are reported. C-terminus protected RGD derivatives were synthesized in liquid phase at the gram scale via an efficient convergent process. C-terminus unprotected RGD derivatives were synthesized on solid support. The UV-vis, fluorescence, and singlet emission spectra showed that the photophysical properties of the photosensitizers were retained in all compounds and some of them are very promising for potential PDT applications.

Compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein L, M, R, T and X are set forth in the description, as well as hydrates or solvates thereof, which inhibit thrombin-induced platelet aggregation and clotting of fibrinogen in plasma, are described. The compounds of formula I are prepared by amidination or, depending on whether L is NH or O, by amide formation or esterification.

Some reference opioids containing the Dmt-Tic pharmacophore, especially the delta agonists H-Dmt-Tic-Gly-NH-Ph (1) and H-Dmt-Tic-NH-(S)CH(CH2-COOH)-Bid (4) (UFP-512) were evaluated for the influence of the substitution of Gly with aspartic acid, its chirality, and the importance of the -NH-Ph and N(1)H-Bid hydrogens in the inductions of delta agonism. The results provide the following conclusions:
Synthetic polyamines and various derivatives of aspartic acid and glutamic acid were examined in vitro for their inhibitory activity on arginyl-tRNA-protein transferase. All the polyamines tested showed non-specific activation or inhibition at 0.1 or 10 mM, respectively, suggesting an interaction of polyamines with tRNA. Of the newly prepared active site directed compounds including the inhibitory peptides so far reported, L-aspartic acid α-[(S)-(-)-naphthylethylamide] was found to inhibit the enzyme activity most potently with a slight substrate activity, whereas the R-isomer showed very weak inhibition, giving information on the active site of the enzyme.

A series of analogues of Boc-Trp-Leu-Asp-Phe-NH2, a potent gastrin agonist, were synthesized by introducing a beta-homo residue in the sequence. These compounds were tested in vivo on acid secretion, in the anesthetized rat, and for their ability to inhibit binding of labeled gastrin to its receptors on gastric mucosal cells. These analogues behaved as gastrin antagonists. The most potent compounds in this series were Boc-Trp-Leu-beta-homo-Asp-NHCH2C6H5 (10) (IC50 = 1 microM, ED50 = 0.2 mg/kg), Boc-Trp-Leu-beta-homo-Asp-NHCH2CH2C6H5 (11) (IC50 = 0.75 microM, ED50 = 0.5 mg/kg), Boc-Trp-Leu-beta-homo-Asp-Phe-NH2 (12) (IC50 = 1.5 microM, ED50 = 0.1 mg/kg), and Boc-Trp-Leu-beta-homo-Asp-D-Phe-NH2 (13) (IC50 = 2 microM, ED50 = 0.1 mg/kg). We could demonstrate the importance of the region of the peptide bond between leucine and aspartic acid and of the structure of the C-terminal dipeptide Asp-Phe-NH2, for exhibiting biological activity on acid secretion.

Carboxamides were obtained efficiently in high yields from azides on reaction with the corresponding pre-formed activated carboxylic acids in a single-step reductive transformation using hydrogen atmosphere (balloon) under Pd/BaSO4 or Pd/CaCO3 catalysis. The method is highly chemoselective and compatible with extremely labile functional groups such as benzyl carbamates, benzyl ethers, benzyl esters, and olefins. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
