Dechlorination and demethylation of ochratoxin A enhance blocking activity of PXR activation, suppress PXR expression and reduce cytotoxicity
摘要:
The pregnane X receptor (PXR) has been established to induce chemoresistance and metabolic diseases. Ochratoxin A (OTA), a mycotoxin, decreases the expression of PXR protein in human primary hepatocytes. OTA is chlorinated and has a methylated lactone ring. Both structures are associated with OTA toxicity. The study was to test the hypothesis that structural modifications differentially impact PXR blocking activity over cytotoxicity. To test this hypothesis, OTA-M and OTA-Cl/M were synthesized. OTA-M lacked the methyl group of the lactonering, whereas OTA-Cl/M had neither the methyl group nor the chlorine atom. The blocking activity of PXR activation was determined in a stable cell line, harboring both PXR (coding sequence) and its luciferase element reporter. OTA-Cl/M showed the highest blocking activity, followed by OTA-M and OTA. OTA-Cl/M was 60 times as potent as the common PXR blocker ketoconazole based on calculated IC50 values. OTA-Cl/M decreased by 90 % the expression of PXR protein and was the least cytotoxic among the tested compounds. Molecular docking identified that OTA and its derivatives interacted with different sets of residues in PXR, providing a molecular basis for selectivity. Excessive activation of PXR has been implicated in chemoresistance and metabolic diseases. Downregulation of PXR protein expression likely delivers an effective mechanism against structurally diverse PXR agonists.

Abstract Synthesis of tetra and pentasubstituted phenols from dimethyl 1,3-acetonedicarboxilate anion 1 and alkinones 2 is described. The salient feature of this procedure is to provide phenols with regiocontrol at the 3/5 positions.

The mycotoxin ochratoxin A is a potent inhibitor of the protein biosynthesis and known to be cytotoxic in nanomolar concentrations. In order to investigate the relationship between stereochemistry and cytotoxicity of this compound, all four ochratoxin A stereoisomers have been synthesized. Using the liver cell line Hep G2, the compounds were tested for cytotoxic and apoptotic potential. It could be shown, that the L-configuration of the phenylalanine moiety of the molecule is mostly responsible for the high cytotoxicity of ochratoxin A while the stereocenter at the dihydroisocoumarine structure is of less importance.
