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.

Traditional methods like thin layer chromatography, gas chromatography, liquid chromatography etc are still in use for this purpose. But some recent bio-analytical methods such as immunosensors, cell based sensors etc. have also gained equal importance. This article also overviews various electro-analytical methods and their applications as detection devices when combined with FIA and biosensors. Lastly nanoparticle based biosensors have also been discussed. The review concludes with futuristic approach to reduce the risks caused by pesticides. This scrutiny should provide concise evaluation of different techniques employed for pesticide detection in environmental samples.

  • Selective Effects of Carbamate Pesticides on Rat Neuronal Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors and Rat Brain Acetylcholinesterase Chantal J.G.M
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com R Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology 193 (2003) 139–146 www.elsevier.com/locate/taap Selective effects of carbamate pesticides on rat neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and rat brain acetylcholinesterase Chantal J.G.M. Smulders,a Tjerk J.H. Bueters,b Regina G.D.M. Van Kleef,a and Henk P.M. Vijverberga,* a Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences, Utrecht University, P.O. Box 80176, NL-3508 TD Utrecht, The Netherlands b TNO Prins Maurits Laboratory, P.O. Box 45, NL-2280 AA Rijswijk, The Netherlands Received 14 May 2003; accepted 31 July 2003 Abstract Effects of commonly used carbamate pesticides on rat neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes have been investigated using the two-electrode voltage clamp technique. The potencies of these effects have been compared to the potencies of the carbamates to inhibit rat brain acetylcholinesterase. The potency order of six carbamates to inhibit ␣4␤4 nicotinic receptors is fenoxycarb Ͼ EPTC Ͼ carbaryl, bendiocarb Ͼ propoxur Ͼ aldicarb with IC50 values ranging from 3 ␮M for fenoxycarb to 165 ␮M for propoxur and Ͼ1 mM for aldicarb. Conversely, the potency order of these carbamates to inhibit rat brain acetylcholinesterase is bendiocarb Ͼ propoxur, aldicarb Ͼ carbaryl ϾϾ EPTC, fenoxycarb with IC50 values ranging from 1 ␮M for bendiocarb to 17 ␮M for carbaryl and ϾϾ1 mM for EPTC and fenoxycarb. The ␣4␤2, ␣3␤4, and ␣3␤2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are inhibited by fenoxycarb, EPTC, and carbaryl with potency orders similar to that for ␣4␤4 receptors. Comparing the potencies of inhibition of the distinct subtypes of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors shows that the ␣3␤2 receptor is less sensitive to inhibition by fenoxycarb and EPTC.
