Gellért tér 4, Hungary * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel: +36-1-463-1195; Fax: +36-1-463-3297. Received: 30 March 2012; in revised form: 9 May 2012 / Accepted: 10 May 2012 / Published: 18 May 2012 Abstract: The synthetic investigation of biologically active natural compounds serves two main purposes: (i) the total synthesis of alkaloids and their analogues; (ii) modification of the structures for producing more selective, more effective, or less toxic derivatives. In the chemistry of dimeric Vinca alkaloids enormous efforts have been directed towards synthesizing new derivatives of the antitumor agents vinblastine and vincristine so as to obtain novel compounds with improved therapeutic properties. Keywords: antitumor therapy; vinblastine; vincristine; derivatives 1. Introduction Vinblastine (1) and vincristine (2) are dimeric alkaloids (Figure 1) isolated from the Madagaskar periwinkle plant (Catharantus roseus), exhibit significant cytotoxic activity and are used in the antitumor therapy as antineoplastic agents. In the course of cell proliferation they act as inhibitors during the metaphase of the cell cycle and by binding to the microtubules inhibit the development of the mitotic spindle. In tumor cells these agents inhibit the DNA repair and the RNA synthesis mechanisms, blocking the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Molecules 2012, 17 5894 Figure 1.

  • Studies on the Pharmacology of Conopharyngine, an Indole Alkaloid of the Voacanga Series
    Br. J. Pharmac. Chemother. (1967), 30, 173-185. STUDIES ON THE PHARMACOLOGY OF CONOPHARYNGINE, AN INDOLE ALKALOID OF THE VOACANGA SERIES BY P. R. CARROLL AND G. A. STARMER From the Department of Pharmacology, University of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia (Received January 17, 1967) Conopharyngine, the major alkaloid present in the leaves of Tabernaemontana (Conopharyngia) pachysiphon var. cumminsi (Stapf) H. Huber was isolated and identified by Thomas & Starmer (1963). The same alkaloid has also been found in the stem bark of a Nigerian variety of the same species by Patel & Poisson (1966) and in the stem bark of Conopharyngia durissima by Renner, Prins & Stoll (1959). Conopharyn- gine is an indole alkaloid of the voacanga type, being 18-carbomethoxy-12,13- dimethoxyibogamine (Fig. 1) and is thus closely related to voacangine and coronaridine. Me.0OC Fig. 1. Conopharyngine (18-carbomethoxy-12,13-dimethoxyibogamine). Some confusion exists in that an alkaloid with an entirely different structure, but also named conopharyngine, was isolated from a cultivated variety of Conopharyngia pachysiphon by Dickel, Lucas & Macphillamy (1959). This compound was shown to be the 3-D-9-glucoside of 55-20a-amino-3 8-hydroxypregnene, and was reported to possess marked hypotensive properties. The presence of steroid alkaloids in the Tabernaemontaneae was hitherto unknown and it was suggested by Raffauf & Flagler (1960) and Bisset (1961) that the plant material was open to further botanical confir- mation. The roots of the conopharyngia species are used in West Africa to treat fever (Kennedy, 1936), including that of malaria (Watt & Breyer-Brandwijk, 1962). The only report on the pharmacology of conopharyngine is that of Zetler (1964), who included it in a study of some of the effects of 23 natural and semi-synthetic alkaloids 174 P.

Changes in the gut microbiota have been associated with obesity in both humans and laboratory animals. Dietary modifications can often modulate the obese gut microbial ecosystem towards a more healthy state. This phenomenon should preferably be studied using dietary ingredients that are relevant to human nutrition. This study was designed to evaluate the influence of whole-wheat, a food ingredient with several beneficial properties, on gut microorganisms of obese diabetic mice. Diabetic (db/db) mice were fed standard (obese-control) or whole-wheat isocaloric diets (WW group) for eight weeks; Submitted 28 October 2015 non-obese mice were used as control (lean-control). High-throughput sequencing Accepted 27 January 2016 using the MiSeq platform coupled with freely-available computational tools and Published 15 February 2016 quantitative real-time PCR were used to analyze fecal bacterial 16S rRNA gene Corresponding authors sequences.

    Thorax: first published as 10.1136/thx.44.12.1022 on 1 December 1989. Downloaded from Thorax 1989;44:1022-1026 Effect of theophylline and enprofylline on bronchial hyperresponsiveness G H KOETER, J KRAAN, M BOORSMA, J H G JONKMAN, TH W VAN DER MARK From the Department ofPulmonology and Lung Function, University Hospital, Groningen; Pharma Bio Research, Assen; and Astra Pharmaceutica, Rijswijk, The Netherlands ABSTRACT The effect of increasing intravenous doses of theophylline and enprofylline, a new xanthine derivative, on bronchial responsiveness to methacholine was studied in eight asthmatic patients. Methacholine provocations were carried out on three days before and after increasing doses of theophylline, enprofylline, and placebo, a double blind study design being used. Methacholine responsiveness was determined as the provocative concentration of methacholine causing a fall of 20% in FEV, (PC20). The patients were characterised pharmacokinetically before the main study to provide an individual dosage scheme for each patient that would provide rapid steady state plasma concentration plateaus of 5, 10, and 15 mg/l for theophylline and 1 25, 2 5, and 3-75 mg/l for enprofylline. Dose increments in the main study were given at 90 minute intervals. FEV, showed a small progressive decrease after placebo; it remained high in relation to placebo after both drugs and this effect was dose related. Methacholine PC20 values decreased after placebo; mean values were (maximum difference 2-0 and 1 7 higher after theophylline and enprofylline than after placebo copyright. doubling doses of methacholine); the effect of both drugs was dose related. Thus enprofylline and theophylline when given intravenously cause a small dose related increase in FEV1 and methacholine PC20 when compared with placebo.

  • Estroquench™ Hormone Specific Formulation™
    PRODUCT DATA DOUGLAS LABORATORIES® 08/2014 1 EstroQuench™ Hormone Specific Formulation™ DESCRIPTION EstroQuench™ is a Hormone Specific Formulation™ of ingredients that have documented anti-aromatase activity as well as androgenic adaptogens which support the function of endogenous aromatase inhibitors. Collectively these herbs promote minimal production and function of estrogens, while promoting testosterone function, including optimal sexual function in both genders. This formulation is designed to quench excessive production of estrogens and aberrant functions of them while supporting optimal function of androgens by maintaining the health of androgen producing glands.† Hormone Specific Formulation™ provided by Douglas Laboratories® and formulated by Dr. Joseph J Collins is created to support the optimal function of specific hormones through the use of hormone specific adaptogens, hormone specific agonists and hormone specific functional mimetics. This formulation may be used as part of a hormone health program with dietary and nutrient support. In addition, this formulation may be used by clinicians as an adjuvant to support optimal hormone health in patients who have been prescribed bioidentical hormone therapies. FUNCTIONS Aromatase (a cytochrome P450 enzyme {CYP19}) is the enzyme that controls the conversion of androgens to estrogens. More specifically, aromatase is the enzyme responsible for catalyzing the biosynthesis of androstenedione into estrone, and the biosynthesis of testosterone to estradiol. Estrogens include the broad range of aromatized hormones created form androgens. The specific attribute of estrogens that separate them from progestogens, androgens and corticoids is that estrogens are the only aromatized steroid hormones. Estradiol, the most potent endogenous estrogen, is biosynthesized by aromatization from androgens by aromatase (which is also called estrogen synthase).

Last name: MALBERT First name: Yannick Title: Flavonoid glucodiversification with engineered sucrose-active enzymes Speciality: Ecological, Veterinary, Agronomic Sciences and Bioengineering, Field: Enzymatic and microbial engineering. Year: 2014 Number of pages: 257 Flavonoid glycosides are natural plant secondary metabolites exhibiting many physicochemical and biological properties. Glycosylation usually improves flavonoid solubility but access to flavonoid glycosides is limited by their low production levels in plants. In this thesis work, the focus was placed on the development of new glucodiversification routes of natural flavonoids by taking advantage of protein engineering. Two biochemically and structurally characterized recombinant transglucosylases, the amylosucrase from Neisseria polysaccharea and the α-(1→2) branching sucrase, a truncated form of the dextransucrase from L. Mesenteroides NRRL B-1299, were selected to attempt glucosylation of different flavonoids, synthesize new α-glucoside derivatives with original patterns of glucosylation and hopefully improved their water-solubility.
