Yoshihiro Uto, Chiaki Abe, Mana Futawaka, Hisatsugu Yamada, Masahide Tominaga and Yoshio Endo : In vivo drug screening method of radiosensitizers using tumor-bearing chick embryo, Elsevier, Oct. 2019. (要約) In radiotherapy, tumor hypoxia is the main factor responsible for treatment resistance, and the development of radiosensitizers that can overcome this is imperative. However, many drugs that are effective in vitro and in vivo fail in clinical trials, and thus it is necessary to develop an animal model that can be used for the correct evaluation of pharmacokinetics and activity. Developing chicken eggs are commonly used in various research fields such as anticancer drug sensitivity tests and cardiotoxicity tests. We examined whether the radiosensitizing activity of etanidazole, as a hypoxic cell radiosensitizer, could be evaluated using tumor-bearing chick embryo. Following the transplantation of mouse mammary carcinoma EMT6 cells on day 11, a solid tumor was formed on day 15 and an evaluation of the time-course of the tumor revealed that the tumor weight was the highest on day 18. The maximum dose of etanidazole that did not affect tumor growth and fetal survival was 1.0mg and the maximum X-ray dose was 8Gy. Etanidazole was intravenously administered 10min prior to single dose X-ray irradiation. A significant tumor growth inhibitory effect was confirmed with 1.0mg of etanidazole in combination with 8Gy X-ray. In the case of mouse colon cancer colon26 cells, the combination of 3.0mg of etanidazole and 2Gy X-ray showed 2.79 times higher radiosensitizing activity than that observed for the control group. These results demonstrate that it is possible to evaluate the activity of radiosensitizers using tumor-bearing chick embryo.

(要約) Cerebral ischemia triggers inflammatory changes, and early complications and unfavorable outcomes of endovascular thrombectomy for brain occlusion promote the recruitment of various cell types to the ischemic area. Although anti-inflammatory M2-type macrophages are thought to exert protective effects against cerebral ischemia, little has been clarified regarding the significance of post-ischemic phase-dependent modulation of M2-type macrophages. To test our hypothesis that post-ischemic phase-dependent modulation of macrophages represents a potential therapy against ischemic brain damage, the effects on rats of an M2-type macrophage-specific activator, Gc-protein macrophage-activating factor (GcMAF), were compared with vehicle-treated control rats in the acute (day 0-6) or subacute (day 7-13) phase after ischemia induction. Acute-phase GcMAF treatment augmented both anti-inflammatory CD163 M2-type- and pro-inflammatory CD16 M1-type macrophages, resulting in no beneficial effects. Conversely, subacute-phase GcMAF injection increased only CD163 M2-type macrophages accompanied by elevated mRNA levels of arginase-1 and interleukin-4. M2-type macrophages co-localized with CD36 phagocytic cells led to clearance of the infarct area, which were abrogated by clodronate-liposomes. Expression of survival-related molecules on day 28 at the infarct border was augmented by GcMAF. These data provide new and important insights into the significance of M2-type macrophage-specific activation as post-ischemic phase-dependent therapy.

(要約) Boron tracedrugs possess global molecular tracking abilities and localized destructive power. We investigated the molecular properties of synthesized boron tracedrugs, including UTX-51, and their interactions with the advanced glycation end-product (AGE)-related protein bovine serum albumin (BSA). A conformational analysis of the compounds used in the present study was performed using CAChe (Fujitsu Inc., Tokyo, Japan) and the degree of stereo-hydrophobicity of the conformers obtained was verified using Mopac (Fujitsu Inc.). The interactive properties of global minimum conformers of the derivatives tested with BSA were assessed using Molegro Virtual Docker (CLC bio., Aarhus, Denmark). Among the compounds investigated, UTX-51 was confirmed to interact with BSA based on the formation of hydrogen bonds between BSA and UTX-51. UTX-51 is a promising boron tracedrug and can be used as the lead structure for developing a therapeutic agent for AGE-related diseases, including cancer.

(要約) Glioblastoma (GBM) has high mortality rates because of extreme therapeutic resistance. During surgical resection for GBM, 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA)-induced protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) fluorescence is conventionally applied to distinguish GBM. However, surgical intervention is insufficient for high invasive GBM. Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) combined with low-intensity ultrasonication (US) and PpIX, as a sonosensitizer, is an emerging and promising approach, although its efficacy is limited. Based on our previous study that down-regulation of multidrug resistant protein (MDR1) in GBM augmented the anti-tumor effects of chemotherapy, we hypothesized that elevation of cellular PpIX levels by down-regulation of MDR1 enhances anti-tumor effects by SDT. In high invasive progeny cells from mouse glioma stem cells (GSCs) and a GSC-bearing mouse glioma model, we assessed the anti-tumor effects of SDT with a COX-2 inhibitor, celecoxib. Down-regulation of MDR1 by celecoxib increased cellular PpIX levels, as well as valspodar, an MDR1 inhibitor, and augmented anti-tumor effects of SDT. MDR1 down-regulation via the Akt/NF-κB pathway by celecoxib was confirmed, using an NF-κB inhibitor, CAPÉ. Thus, elevation of cellar PpIX by down-regulation of MDR1 via the Akt/NF-κB pathway may be crucial to potentiate the efficacy of SDT in a site-directed manner and provide a promising new therapeutic strategy for GBM.

(要約) Volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) requires highly accurate control of multileaf collimator (MLC) movement, rotation speed of linear accelerator gantry, and monitor units during irradiation. Pretreatment validation and monitoring of these factors during irradiation are necessary for appropriate VMAT treatment. Recently, a gantry mounted transmission detector "Delta Discover® (D4D)" was developed to detect errors in delivering doses and dose distribution immediately after treatment. In this study, the performance of D4D was evaluated. Simulation plans, in which the MLC position was displaced by 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 mm from the clinically used original plans, were created for ten patients who received VMAT treatment for prostate cancer. Dose deviation (DD), distance-to-agreement (DTA), and gamma index analysis (GA) for each plan were evaluated by D4D. These results were compared to the results (DD, DTA and GA) measured by Delta Phantom + (D4P). We compared the deviations between the planned and measured values of the MLC stop positions A-side and B-side in five clinical cases of prostate VMAT during treatment and measured the GA values. For D4D, when the acceptable errors for DD, DTA, and GA were determined to be ≤3%, ≤2 mm, and ≤3%/2 mm, respectively, the minimum detectable errors in the MLC position were 2.0, 1.5, and 1.5 mm based on DD, DTA, and GA respectively. The corresponding minimum detectable MLC position errors were 2.0, 1.0, and 1.5 mm, respectively, for D4P. The deviation between the planned and measured position of MLC stopping point of prostate VMAT during treatment was stable at an average of -0.09 ± 0.05 mm, and all GA values were above 99.86%. In terms of delivering doses and dose distribution of VMAT, error detectability of D4D was comparable to that of D4P. The transmission-type detector "D4D" is thus suitable for detecting delivery errors during irradiation.

(要約) Aurora kinase A, a mitotic kinase that is overexpressed in various cancers, is a promising cancer drug target. Here, we performed preclinical characterization of TAS-119, a novel, orally active, and highly selective inhibitor of Aurora A. TAS-119 showed strong inhibitory effect against Aurora A, with an IC value of 1.04 nmol/L. The compound was highly selective for Aurora A compared with 301 other protein kinases, including Aurora kinase B. TAS-119 induced the inhibition of Aurora A and accumulation of mitotic cells in vitro and in vivo. It suppressed the growth of various cancer cell lines harboring MYC family amplification and CTNNB1 mutation in vitro. In a xenograft model of human lung cancer cells harboring MYC amplification and CTNNB1 mutation, TAS-119 showed a strong antitumor activity at well-tolerated doses. TAS-119 induced N-Myc degradation and inhibited downstream transcriptional targets in MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cell lines. It also demonstrated inhibitory effect against tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK)A, TRKB, and TRKC, with an IC value of 1.46, 1.53, and 1.47 nmol/L, respectively. TAS-119 inhibited TRK-fusion protein activity and exhibited robust growth inhibition of tumor cells via a deregulated TRK pathway in vitro and in vivo. Our study indicates the potential of TAS-119 as an anticancer drug, especially for patients harboring MYC amplification, CTNNB1 mutation, and NTRK fusion.

(要約) Various radiosensitizers are being developed to increase the radiation sensitivity of hypoxic cancer cells, which show resistance to radiation. Previously, we demonstrated that an acetyl glucose-modified nitroimidazole derivative showed a high radiosensitizing effect by inhibiting glucose uptake and glycolysis. Based on this finding, we designed and synthesized novel sugar hybrid radiosensitizers, wherein acetyl glucose was introduced into gefitinib. Among them, UTX-114 had higher autophosphorylation and radiosensitizing activity than gefitinib and inhibited glucose uptake. This result supports our hypothesis that an acetyl glucose moiety improves the radiosensitizing effect of the drug, and UTX-114 can be expected to be a leading compound with a radiosensitizing effect.

(要約) Human group-specific component protein (Gc protein) is a multifunctional serum protein which has three common allelic variants, Gc1F, Gc1S and Gc2 in humans. Gc1 contains an O-linked trisaccharide [sialic acid-galactose-N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc)] on the threonine (Thr) residue and can be converted to a potent macrophage activating factor (GcMAF) by selective removal of sialic acid and galactose, leaving GalNAc at Thr. In contrast, Gc2 is not glycosylated. GcMAF is considered a promising candidate for immunotherapy and antiangiogenic therapy of cancers and has attracted great interest, but it remains difficult to compare findings among research groups because different procedures have been used to prepare GcMAF. Here, we present a simple, practical method to prepare high-quality GcMAF by overexpressing Gc-protein in a serum-free suspension culture of ExpiCHO-S cells, without the need for a de-glycosylation step. We believe this protocol is suitable for large-scale production of GcMAF for functional analysis and clinical testing.

(要約) TAS-119 is a novel orally active, selective inhibitor of Aurora kinase A identified as a clinical candidate for efficacy testing in combination with taxanes. In vitro, TAS-119 enhanced cell growth inhibition of paclitaxel in multiple human cancer cell lines derived from various tissues, including paclitaxel-resistant cell lines. Interestingly, TAS-119 did not enhance paclitaxel antitumor activity in normal lung diploid fibroblast cell lines WI-38 and MRC5. In vivo, TAS-119 enhanced the antitumor efficacy of paclitaxel and docetaxel in multiple models at doses inhibitory to Aurora A in tumors. Moreover, the drug combination was well tolerated, and TAS-119 did not exaggerate clinically documented side effects of taxanes, neutropenia and neurotoxicity, in rats. The same TAS-119 concentration enhanced the cell growth inhibitory activity of three clinically approved taxanes, paclitaxel, docetaxel, and cabazitaxel. The degree of enhancement calculated as fold of change of the IC50 value for each taxane was almost the same among the three taxanes. We conducted in vitro and in vivo experiments to develop an optimized combination therapy regimen for TAS-119 with paclitaxel/docetaxel. Using in vitro and in vivo models, we tested the drug administration order for TAS-119 combined with paclitaxel and the TAS-119 treatment duration. The best regimen in preclinical models was combining paclitaxel or docetaxel treatment with 4 days of TAS-119 dosing, which was initiated on the same day as the paclitaxel or docetaxel administration or one day later. This information provided guidance for the design of a clinical trial of TAS-119 and paclitaxel or docetaxel combination.

(要約) From the design and synthesis of enantiomers, we can expect to obtain two compounds with different pharmacokinetics and pharmacological activities at the same time, which is thought to lead to the development of efficient anticancer agents. Chiral-2-nitroimidazole TX-2036 derivatives exhibit stereo-configuration (R- and S-configuration)-dependent tyrosine kinase inhibitory activity, and the activity of the tyrosine kinase domain of EGF receptor (EGFR-tyk) is suppressed. In order to clarify the reason why the effects on EGFR-tyk activity differ depending on stereoisomers, we tried to analyze the interaction between each TX-2036 derivative and EGFR-tyk. The 2-nitroimidazole-based radiosensitizer TX-2036 series were synthesized and their molecular features were examined using protein kinase inhibition assay and molecular structural analysis. R-configured TXs (TX-2043, -2030, and -2036) exhibited more potent protein kinase inhibitory activity than S-configured TXs (TX-2044, - 2031, and -2037), and the IC value of TX-2036 was 1.8 μM. R-configured TXs interacted with Lys and Thr of EGFR-tyk. The combinations of amino acid residues targeted by the S-configured TXs were different from each other (Ile and Thr (TX-2044), Ser, Thr, and Thr (TX-2031), Gly, Cys, and Thr (TX-2037)). Preparing a series of isomers with different target sites was considered beneficial when the target was mutated.

(要約) Bovine mastitis is caused by the invasion and propagation of pathogenic microorganisms into the udder and mammary gland tissues of cattle. In this study, the therapeutic effect of a low-molecular-weight whey protein (LMW-WP) on bovine mastitis was evaluated. LMW-WP was orally, intraperitoneally, and vaginally administered to bovine with mastitis. The number of somatic cells in milk was measured 24 h before the administration of LMW-WP. The effect of LMW-WP on cytokine production was measured with a microarray that evaluates the expression of cytokines. In the group that received 1,000 mg intraperitoneally, the somatic cell count was reduced to less than 400,000 at the shipment standard value in three of the four udders, indicating 75% efficacy. The group that received 1,000 mg by vaginal administration showed 67% efficacy. It was confirmed that LMW-WP increased the production of cytokines such as IL-5, IL-6, IL-9, IL-12, MCP-1, and VEGF in mouse macrophage cells, but it did not show any antibacterial activity. LMW-WP may be an effective therapeutic agent for bovine mastitis.

(要約) We designed and synthesized a celecoxib derivative UTX-121 to enhance its anti-tumor activity. Similar to celecoxib, this compound could also inhibit matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 activity. In addition, UTX-121 suppressed membrane-type 1 MMP (MT1-MMP)-mediated pro-MMP-2 activation by disturbing the cell surface expression of MT1-MMP. UTX-121 also impeded the glycosylation of cell surface proteins, resulting in the suppression of cell attachment to fibronectin. This inhibition by UTX-121 caused the reduction of fibronectin-stimulated focal adhesion kinase activation, Akt activation, and cell migration. Consequently, UTX-121 treatment significantly inhibited fibronectin-induced HT1080 cell invasion into the Matrigel. UTX-121 may be a potent lead compound that can be used to develop a novel anti-tumor drug.

(要約) The stereo-configuration (R-, S-configuration) of chiral-2-nitroimidazole derivatives alters their radiosensitizing activity. This study aimed at examining the molecular features of these enantiomers by molecular simulation techniques. A series of 2-nitroimidazole-based radiosensitizer TX-2036 molecules were synthesized, and their profiles were examined using molecular structural analysis such as conformation analysis, molecular orbital analysis, and electrostatic potential analysis. R-configured TXs (TX-2043, -2030, -2036) had a weaker radiosensitizing activity than S-configured TXs (TX-2044, -2031, -2037), and R-compounds had a small minus electrostatic potential (ESP) field in the cyclopentene-1,3-dione region. S-configured TX-2046 had weaker radiosensitizing activity than R-configured TX-2045, and TX-2046 had a small minus ESP field as well as R-configured TX-2043, -2030, - 2036. The cyclopentene-1,3-dione involved in the small minus ESP field affected the radiosensitizing activity of the TX-2036 series of molecules.

(要約) Trabectedin is a DNA-damaging agent and has been approved for the treatment of patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma. Schlafen 11 (SLFN11) was identified as a dominant determinant of the response to DNA-damaging agents. The aim of the study was to clarify the association between SLFN11 expression and the antitumor activity of trabectedin. The antitumor activity of trabectedin was evaluated under different expression levels of SLFN11 regulated by RNA interference and CRISPR-Cas9 systems, and the combined antitumor activity of ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein kinase (ATR) inhibitor and trabectedin in sarcoma cell lines using in vitro a cell viability assay and in vivo xenograft models. SLFN11-knockdown cell lines had a lower sensitivity to trabectedin, compared to parental cells. ATR inhibitor enhanced the antitumor activity of trabectedin in SLFN11-knockdown cells and in a SLFN11-knockout xenograft model. SLFN11 expression might be a key factor in the antitumor activity of trabectedin.

(要約) Among the various enzymes, reductases that catalyze one-electron reduction are involved in the selective activation of functional compounds or materials in hypoxia, which is one of the well-known pathophysiological characteristics of solid tumors. Enzymatic one-electron reduction has been recognized as a useful reaction that can be applied in the design of tumor hypoxia-targeting drugs. In this report, we characterized the enzymatic reaction of 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (FdUrd) prodrug bearing an indolequinone unit (IQ-FdUrd), which is a substrate of reductases. IQ-FdUrd was activated to release FdUrd under hypoxic conditions after treatment with cytochrome NADPH P450 reductase. We also confirmed that IQ-FdUrd showed selective cytotoxicity in hypoxic tumor cells.

The molecular stabilities (reactivity) and hydrophobicities of sugar (e.g., monosaccharide and tetra-O-acetylated monosaccharide)-conjugated TXs were analyzed using a molecular simulation (e.g. molecular mechanics (MM) and molecular orbital (MO) analysis). The hydrophobicities of TX-1877 derivatives were increased by tetra-O-acetylation, and TX-2244 exhibited the most potent radiosensitizing activity (enhancement ratio: ER=2.30). The conformations and hydrophobicities of chemical compounds may be controlled by adding monosaccharide- and tetra-O-acetyl-conjugated sugars to TX-1877.

(要約) Whey protein is a mixture of globulins isolated from whey and mainly composed of β-lactoglobulin, α-lactoalbumin, and lactoferrin. In this study, whey protein was hydrolyzed using various proteases, and the macrophage activation was evaluated. Hydrolyzed whey protein was prepared using various proteases to evaluate phagocytic activity and cytokine productivity. The results of SDS-PAGE and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analysis indicated that the molecular weight of whey protein was reduced using various proteases. The hydrolyzed whey protein showed a concentration-dependent induction of macrophage phagocytic activity. In addition, the hydrolyzed whey protein significantly enhanced the production of the inflammatory cytokine, TNF-α. Production of the anti-inflammatory cytokine, IL-10, was not observed at concentrations up to 1 μg, but significant production was confirmed at 100 μg. Hydrolyzed whey protein can induce the phagocytic activity of macrophages and activation of the inflammatory/anti-inflammatory functions of the macrophages depends on the concentration of the hydrolyzed whey protein.

(要約) Carbon-ion beam is one of the most advanced radiations used for cancer treatment. However, there are tumors that are difficult to suppress with carbon-ion beam alone, thus necessitating development of drugs that can enhance its therapeutic effect. In this regard, the radiosensitizing effect of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), that is a metabolic intermediate of ALA, on carbon-ion beam was investigated. Radiosensitizing activity, mitochondrial ROS and DNA double-strand break production of ALA and PpIX were evaluated by irradiation with 1.0 or 1.5-Gy carbon-ion beam to mouse mammary EMT6 tumor cells. Combination of carbon-ion beam and ALA or PpIX showed a significant enhancement of its cytotoxic activity through a significant increase in ROS production in mitochondria. Furthermore, the combined activity of carbon-ion beam and ALA resulted in a significant increase in DNA double-strand breakage. ALA selectively accumulates in the mitochondria and PpIX synthesized from ALA reacts with carbon-ion beam to produce ROS that exert antitumor activity.

(要約) PAK1 (RAC/CDC42-activated kinase 1) is the major oncogenic/ageing kinase, and its dysfunction extends the healthy lifespan of C. elegans by activating HSP16 gene. 15K is a highly cell-permeable 1,2,3-triazolyl ester of ketorolac that down-regulates both PAK1 and its down-stream COX-2 in R- and S-forms, respectively. 15K is 500-5,000 times more potent than ketorolac, an old pain-killer, inhibiting the growth of cancer cell lines with IC50 ranging 5-24 nM. Scores of natural and synthetic PAK1-blockers have been shown to extend the lifespan of small animals such as C. elegans, but none of them has been effective at nM levels. Thus, we examined in vivo effect of 15K at nM levels on the survival rate of C. elegans with or without heat-shock. Like the PAK1-deficient mutant, 15K (at 50 nM)-treated worm significantly lives longer, is far more heat-resistant and less productive (fertile) than the non-treated counterpart, with an increased expression of HSP16 gene. 15K has been proven to be among the most potent anti-cancerous and longevity-promoting PAK1-blockers, and therefore has a potential to treat a variety of solid tumours without severe side effect.

Mok-Ryeon Ahn, Ji-Yeon Bae, Da-Hye Jeong, Hideaki Takahashi, Yoshihiro Uto and Hiroshi Maruta : Both triazolyl ester of ketorolac (15K) and YM155 inhibit the embryonic angiogenesis in ovo (fertilized eggs) via their common PAK1-survivin/VEGF signaling pathway., Drug Discoveries & Therapeutics, Vol.11, No.6, 300-306, 2018. (要約) 15 K is 1,2, 3-triazolyl ester of ketorolac, an old pain-killer, that blocks PAK1 by its R-form and inhibits COX-2 by its S-form. Mainly due to a robust increase in cell-permeability, 15K is over 500 times more potent than ketorolac in both anti-cancer and anti-PAK1 activities in cell culture with IC50 around 24 nM. However, 15K has no anti-AKT activity. Angiogenesis requires at least the kinase PAK1, and perhaps the kinase AKT as well, and is essential for a robust growth of solid tumors. Thus, in this study, we examined the potential antiangiogenic activity of 15K both in ovo and cell culture, prior to its in vivo (xenograft) anti-cancer activity test. The IC50 of 15K against the embryonic angiogenesis in ovo in CAM (chorioallantoic membrane) assay is around 1 nmol/egg. Surprizingly, however, 15K failed to inhibit the tube formation of HUVECs (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) in cell culture even at high as 150 μM. In an attempt to solve this mystery, we tested both in ovo as well as HUVECs-based anti-angiogenic activity of a potent survivin-suppressor called YM155, which blocks PAK1, in addition to AKT. YM155 is slightly more potent than 15K in CAM assay with IC50 around 0.5 nmol/egg, and apparenty inhibits the tube formation of HUVECs with IC50 around 18 nM. According to a few previous findings with the direct PAK1-inhibitor frondoside A (FRA), the tube formation of HUVECs depends solely on PAK1. Thus, the failure of 15K to affect their tube formation is most likely due to their drug (15K)-resistance. Furthermore, unlike FRA, YM155 killed HUVECs with IC50 around 18 nM, clearly indicating that AKT is essential for survival of HUVECs, instead of their tube formation.

(要約) 5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA), a precursor of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), is now widely used for photodynamic diagnosis (ALA-PDD) and photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) of various cancers. Recently, we found that treatment of cancer cells with the Schiff base derivative TX-816 along with ALA could significantly increase the efficacy of ALA-PDT. This enhancing effect of TX-816 on ALA-PDT is attributed to 3,5-dichlorosalicylaldehyde (DCSA), a molecule produced by the degradation of TX-816. Similar to TX-816, DCSA significantly enhances the effect of ALA-PDT. Furthermore, DCSA could restore the sensitivity of cancer cells that acquired resistance to ALA-PDT. These results indicate that DCSA, as well as TX-816, is a potent lead compound for the development of an ALA-PDT sensitizer. TX-816 might be a useful compound for designing prodrug-type ALA-PDT enhancers.

(要約) To date, two cyclo-oxygenase (COX) isoforms, COX1 and COX2, have been identified. In the present study, the COX-inhibitory activities of TX-1123 derivatives with the 2-hydroxyarylidene-4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione structure were examined, and the binding profiles of TX-1123 to COXs were analyzed using docking simulations. X-Ray data on COX1 [protein data bank (PDB) ID=1PGG] and COX2 (PDB ID=3LN1) were used for molecular interactive simulations. The interactive profiles of TX-1123 derivatives with COXs were examined using a molecular simulation technique with Molegro Virtual Docker (CLC bio, Aarhus, Denmark). TX-1123 exhibited COX1-inhibitory activity [half-maximal-inhibitory concentration (IC)=1.57×10 M]. The COX2 inhibitory activity of TX-1123 was potent (IC=1.16×10 M), and the ratio of COX1/COX2 inhibition was 13.5. TX-1123 bound to the COX2 molecule, and the oxygen atom of the 4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione region of TX-1123 interacted with Cys and Gln of COX2. The TX-1123-binding pocket of COX2 differs from that of the COX2-selective celecoxib-binding pocket. TX-1123 exhibited a different COX2-interactive mechanism from that of celecoxib.

(要約) The hypoxic microenvironment plays a crucial role in the malignant progression of tumor cells. Moreover, AKT, a serine/threonine kinase, is activated by various extracellular growth factors and is important for cell growth, survival, and motility of leukocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and tumor cells. Therefore, we aimed to design an anti-metastatic hypoxic cytotoxin which has inhibitory effects on AKT.TX-2137 was designed and synthesized based on the structural similarity of a preexisting AKT1/2 kinase inhibitor and a hypoxic cytotoxin tirapazamine. TX-2137 effectively reduced the expression of phosphorylated AKT and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) and showed strong inhibition of the proliferation of B16-F10, HT-1080, and MKN-45 cells. In addition, TX-2137 exhibited hypoxia-selective cytotoxicity towards A549 cells and inhibited liver metastasis of B16-F10 cells in a xenograft chick embryo model in the same way as doxorubicin.TX-2137 may be a potent lead compound in the development of a novel anti-metastatic AKT kinase inhibitor.

(要約) The lipophilic photosensitizer, TONS 501, is a novel porphyrin-derived methyl ester that was developed for photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy. This study developed a hydrophilic and anionic porphyrin salt of this compound (TONS 501-Na) for use in photodynamic therapy (PDT). This chlorin derivative is synthesized from the protoporphyrin IX dimethyl ester. We investigated the in vitro cytotoxic effects of TONS 501-Na-mediated PDT on EMT6 mouse breast cancer cells. EMT6 cells were incubated with 0-100 μg/ml TONS 501-Na for 24 h prior to replacing the culture medium and exposing the cells to 6 mW/cm diode laser irradiation at 0-13 J/cm to induce PDT. Morphological changes and cell viability were evaluated 24 h after PDT. The percentages of apoptotic cells were evaluated 4 h and 24 h after PDT. The concentrations of TONS 501-Na that killed 50% of EMT6 cells after exposure to light doses of 0, 0.4, 3, 6, or 13 J/cm were 84.6, 33.2, 18, 8.2, and 2.2 μg/ml, respectively. Tumor cells exposed to PDT showed chromatin condensation and fragmentation. The percentages of apoptotic cells increased in a TONS 501-Na concentration-dependent manner in the PDT group, and were significantly higher than those in the control group or in cells treated with TONS 501-Na or laser irradiation alone. TONS 501-Na-mediated PDT induced mouse breast cancer cell death in a concentration-dependent manner. Future studies should evaluate the in vivo pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution, and photodynamic effects of TONS 501-Na.

(要約) Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) kills tumor cells through the synergistic effects of ultrasound (US) and a sonosensitizer agent. 5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) has been used as a sonodynamic sensitizer for cancer treatment. However, studies have shown that 5-ALA-based SDT has limited efficacy against malignant tumors. In this study, we examined whether artesunate (ART) could enhance the cytotoxicity of 5-ALA-based SDT against mouse mammary tumor (EMT-6) cells in vitro. In the ART, ART + US, ART + 5-ALA, and ART + 5-ALA + US groups, the cell survival rate correlated with ART concentration, and decreased with increasing concentrations of ART. Morphologically, many apoptotic and necrotic cells were observed in the ART + 5-ALA + US group. The percentage of reactive oxygen species-positive cells in the ART + 5-ALA + US group was also significantly higher than that in the 5-ALA group (p = 0.0228), and the cell death induced by ART + 5-ALA + US could be inhibited by the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine. These results show that ART offers great potential in enhancing the efficacy of 5-ALA-based SDT for the treatment of cancer. However, these results are only based on in vitro studies, and further in vivo studies are required.

Quan Binh Cao Nguyen, Hideaki Takahashi, Yoshihiro Uto, MD Shahinozzaman, Shinkichi Tawata and Hiroshi Maruta : 1,2,3-Triazolyl ester of Ketorolac: A "Click Chemistry"-based highly potent PAK1-blocking cancer-killer., European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Vol.126, 270-276, 2017. (要約) An old anti-inflammatory/analgesic drug called Toradol is a racemic form of Ketorolac (50% R-form and 50% S-form) that blocks the oncogenic RAC-PAK1-COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2) signaling, through the direct inhibition of RAC by the R-form and of COX-2 by the S-form, eventually down-regulating the production of prostaglandins. However, due to its COOH moiety which is clearly repulsive to negatively-charged phospholipid-based plasma membrane, its cell-permeability is rather poor (the IC against the growth of human cancer cells such as A549 is around 13 μM). In an attempt to boost its anti-cancer activity, hopefully by increasing its cell-permeability through abolishing the negative charge, yet keeping its water-solubility, here we synthesized a 1,2,3-triazolyl ester of Toradol through "Click Chemistry". The resultant water-soluble "azo" derivative called "15K" was found to be over 500 times more potent than Toradol with the IC around 24 nM against the PAK1-dependent growth of A549 cancer cells, inactivating PAK1 in cell culture with the apparent IC around 65 nM, and inhibiting COX-2 in vitro with the IC around 6 nM. Furthermore, the Click Chemistry boosts the anti-cancer activity of Ketorolac by 5000 times against the PAK1-independent growth of B16F10 melanoma cells. Using a multi-drug-resistant (MDR) cancer cell line (EMT6), we found that the esterization of Ketorolac boosts its cell-permeability by at least 10 folds. Thus, the Click Chemistry dramatically boosts the anti-cancer activity of Ketorolac, at least in three ways: increasing its cell-permeability, the anti-PAK1 activity of R-form and anti-COX-2 activity of S-form. The resultant "15K" is so far among the most potent PAK1-blockers, and therefore would be potentially useful for the therapy of many different PAK1-dependent diseases/disorders such as cancers.

(要約) We have developed a self-assembled fluorescent cluster comprising a seminaphthorhodafluor (SNARF) derivative protected by a photoremovable o-nitrobenzyl group. Prior to UV irradiation, a colorless and nonfluorescent cluster was spontaneously assembled in aqueous solution. After UV irradiation, the self-assembled cluster remained intact and showed a large enhancement in pH-responsive fluorescence. The unique pH responsive fluorescent cluster could be used as a dual-emissive ratiometric fluorescent pH probe not only in the test tube but also in HeLa cell cultures.

(要約) 5-Aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), a precursor of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), is now used for photodynamic therapy (PDT) of pre-cancers of the skin and photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) of brain tumors. Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) of cancers with ultrasound has been studied using 5-ALA as a sonosensitizer. In this article, we evaluated the sonosensitizing activity and mode of action of 5-ALA/PpIX by using mouse mammary tumor EMT6 cells.5-ALA-SDT showed significant antitumor effects toward EMT6 cells in vitro and in vivo. The fluorescence of MitoSOX Red, an indicator specific for mitochondrial superoxide, was significantly increased by 5-ALA-SDT. Moreover, the fluorescence derived from JC-1, an indicator of mitochondrial membrane potential, was also significantly increased by 5-ALA-SDT. These findings suggest that mitochondria are one of the target organelles of 5-ALA-SDT. PpIX enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production from tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tBHP), suggesting that PpIX might stabilize or promote ROS generation from tBHP.5-ALA-SDT showed an antitumor effect in mouse mammary tumor EMT6 cells through oxidation of the mitochondrial membrane via ROS production.

(要約) Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is one of the numbers of radiotherapies for treatment of certain cancers. The ability of low-dose irradiation with neutrons or radioactive beams to provide an acceptable quality of life is an objective which has not yet been achieved; therefore it will be necessary to increase the efficiency of the neutron capture reaction by lower dose irradiation and by achieving higher drug concentrations in living cells. Drug selectivity in targeting the affected cellular compartment is most important. Molecular design and synthesis of drugs should be based on high resolution structures and analysis of specific compounds and host molecules; however, it is necessary to obtain crystals for X-ray structural analysis. Because compounds containing bulky functional groups are difficult to crystalize due to their flexibility, the method described here makes it possible to stabilize these compounds by complexing them with protein molecules. We have first solved the three-dimensional structure of a BNCT drug-protein molecule combination at 1.26 Å resolution, and discuss the nature of the interaction between a BNCT drug and the protein molecule residues.

(要約) Protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) play major roles in signal transduction during cell proliferation and apoptosis. Tyrphostin AG17 was previously shown to be a potent tumor growth inhibitor, while AG17 induced apoptosis and inhibited activity of cyclin-dependent kinase 2. We herein describe the binding features of tyrphostin AG17 analogs, such as TX-1123, with Src kinase (Src-K).MATERIALS AND METHODS:Structural data for Src-K were obtained from a protein data bank (ID=2SRC), and the molecular interactions between Src-K and TX-1123 derivatives were examined.RESULTS:TX-1123 exihibited potent Src-K inhibitory activity (half maximal-inhibitory concentration=2.2 M), and fit into the pocket of the Src-K molecule as well as c-AMP did.CONCLUSION:The binding profiles of TX-1123 derivatives differed from each other, while their Src-K inhibitory activities were affected by their fit in the Src-K molecule.

(要約) BACKGROUND/AIM:Macrophages are important components of human defense systems and consequently key to antitumor immunity. Human-serum macrophage activation factor (serum MAF) can activate macrophages, making it a promising reagent for anticancer therapy.MATERIALS AND METHODS:We established four different macrophage subtypes through introduction of different culture conditions to THP-1- and U937-derived macrophages. We assessed phagocytic activity to understand subtype responses to typical macrophage activation factors (MAFs) and the activation mechanisms of serum MAF.RESULTS:All four macrophage subtypes differed in their response to all MAFs. Moreover, serum MAF had two different activation mechanisms: N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc)-dependent and GalNAc-independent.CONCLUSION:Macrophage activation states and mechanisms are heterogeneous.

(要約) Gc protein-derived macrophage-activating factor (GcMAF) has various functions as an immune modulator, such as macrophage activation, anti-angiogenic activity and anti-tumor activity. Clinical trials of second-generation GcMAF demonstrated remarkable clinical effects in several types of cancers. Thus, GcMAF-based immunotherapy has a wide application for use in the treatment of many diseases via macrophage activation that can be used as a supportive therapy. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is considered to be an autoimmune disorder that affects the myelinated axons in the central nervous system (CNS). This study was undertaken to examine the effects of second-generation GcMAF in a patient with MS. This case study demonstrated that treatments of GcMAF in a patient with MS have potent therapeutic actions with early beneficial responses, especially improvement of motor dysfunction. GcMAF shows therapeutic potency in the treatment of MS.

(要約) 5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA), a precursor ofprotoporphyrin IX (PpIX), has been utilized as a potent sensitizerfor photodynamic therapy (PDT) of cancer through productionof reactive oxygen species (ROS). ALA also has been proposed asa possible radiosensitizer with low linear energy transfer (LET)radiation because antitumor activity of low-LET radiation dependson ROS mainly. In this paper, we investigated the radiosensitizingactivity of PpIX in carbon ion irradiation as a high LET radiation.PpIX was detected in an EMT6 mouse mammary breast tumor cellseven at 24 h post treatment. The cytotoxicity of PpIX against EMT6cells was IC50 = 48.0 m. The combined treatment of 1.0 m of PpIXwith 2 Gy of carbon ion irradiation (290 MeV/nucleon, 85.1 keV/m)showed a more potent antitumor activity than carbon ion irradiationalone. We demonstrated that PpIX showed a radiosensitizing effectwith carbon ion beam against mouse mammary breast tumor cells.

(要約) Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) kills tumor cells through the synergistic effects of ultrasound and a sonosensitizer agent. We examined whether 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA)-based SDT at 1 or 3MHz could enhance the cytotoxicity of bleomycin (BLM) toward mouse mammary tumor cells both in vitro and in vivo. At 1MHz, cell viability in the 5-ALA-based SDT group at 1, 2, and 3W/cm(2) was 34.30%, 50.90%, and 60.16%, respectively. Cell viability in the 5-ALA-based SDT+BLM group at 1, 2, and 3W/cm(2) was 0.09%, 0.32%, and 0.17%, respectively. In contrast, at 3MHz, 5-ALA-based SDT+BLM did not show pronounced cytotoxicity. In the in vivo study, 5-ALA-based SDT+BLM was significantly more cytotoxic than 5-ALA-based SDT at 1MHz and 3MHz. These findings suggest that the mechanism of tumor shrinkage induced by 5-ALA-based SDT+BLM might involve not only direct cell killing, but also vascular shutdown. Thus, we show here that 5-ALA-based SDT enhances the efficacy of BLM both in vitro and in vivo.

(要約) Sonodynamic therapy (SDT), or ultrasound combined with sonosensitization, is a promising approach because it is noninvasive and penetrates deeper than light does in photodynamic therapy. We examined whether bleomycin (BLM) could improve the efficacy of SDT. We performed an in vitro study using Colon-26 cells, which are derived from mouse colon cancer. SDT with BLM was significantly more cytotoxic than SDT alone both in vitro and in vivo. We also observed an ultrasound intensity-dependent cytotoxic effect of SDT with BLM. These findings suggest that SDT with BLM might provide a novel noninvasive treatment for deep-seated tumors.

(要約) As the mechanism of macrophage activation is not well-understood, standardization of an assay system for measuring phagocytic activities of macrophages will be useful for research on macrophages. Previously, we established a novel standardized macrophage-activating factor (MAF) assay system using U937. Both U937- and THP-1-derived macrophages showed obvious phagocytic activities with unique characteristics and, therefore, could not be assigned to a single sub-type. Activation of macrophages is an intricate cellular process. Comparison of our two novel assay systems provides new insights into macrophage activation mechanisms.

The unique of monocytic cell line-derived macrophages could provide clues to understand the activation mechanism of macrophages and, therefore, help to develop effective cancer immunotherapy with MAFs.

Three case studies demonstrate that oral colostrum MAF can be used for serious infection and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) without adverse effects. We demonstrate that colostrum MAF shows promising clinical results in patients with infectious diseases and for symptoms of fatigue, which is common in many chronic diseases.

(要約) Prenyl residues confer divergent biological activities such as antipathogenic and antiherbivorous activities on phenolic compounds, including flavonoids, coumarins, and xanthones. To date, about 1,000 prenylated phenolics have been isolated, with these compounds containing various prenyl residues. However, all currently described plant prenyltransferases (PTs) have been shown specific for dimethylallyl diphosphate as the prenyl donor, while most of the complementary DNAs encoding these genes have been isolated from the Leguminosae. In this study, we describe the identification of a novel PT gene from lemon (Citrus limon), ClPT1, belonging to the homogentisate PT family. This gene encodes a PT that differs from other known PTs, including flavonoid-specific PTs, in polypeptide sequence. This membrane-bound enzyme was specific for geranyl diphosphate as the prenyl donor and coumarin as the prenyl acceptor. Moreover, the gene product was targeted to plastid in plant cells. To our knowledge, this is the novel aromatic PT specific to geranyl diphosphate from citrus species.

(要約) The aims of this study were to evaluate the cell survival uncertainty distribution of radiation and to assess the accuracy of predictions of tumor response by using three different in vitro experimental cell cultures with radiosensitizers (including etanidazole). Using EMT6 cells and X-rays, the cell survival fraction was obtained from 15, 34, and 21 different experiments under normoxic, hypoxic, and hypoxic-plus-radiosensitizer culture, respectively. The α coefficients were 0.257 ± 0.188, 0.078 ± 0.080, and 0.182 ± 0.116 Gy(-1), respectively. The β coefficients were 0.0159 ± 0.0208, 0.0076 ± 0.0113, and 0.0062 ± 0.0077 Gy(-2), respectively. The α coefficient and the dose that killed half of the clonogens population (D50) were significantly different between normoxic cell and hypoxic cell cultures (p<0.01), respectively. The use of radiosensitizers under hypoxic conditions improved radiosensitivity. Our results suggest that parameter value distributions are required for biophysical modeling of applications for radiotherapy.

(要約) Gc protein-derived macrophage-activating factor (GcMAF) occurs naturally in the human body. It has various functions, such as macrophage activation and antitumor activities. Recently, immunotherapy has become an attractive new strategy in the treatment of cancer. GcMAF-based immunotherapy can be combined with many other therapies. Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) using low-intensity ultrasound is a novel therapeutic modality. Ultrasound has been demonstrated to activate a number of sonosensitive agents allowing for the possibility of non-invasive targeted treatment for both superficial and deep-seated tumors. The current case study demonstrates that GcMAF and SDT can be used in combination with conventional therapies in patients with metastatic cancer, especially where treatment options are limited due to factors such as toxicity. This case study also suggests a new concept of cancer treatment using local destruction of cancer tissue, in this case conducted with SDT, to be used in combination with GcMAF immunotherapy as a systemic treatment.

(要約) Recently, 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), precursors of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), and Sn(IV) chlorin e6 (SnCe6) have been proposed as possible sonosensitizers for sonodynamic therapy of cancer. Therefore, we evaluated the pharmacokinetic properties and sonosensitizing activities of 5-ALA and SnCe6 in vivo by using the EMT6/KU tumor-bearing chick embryos. The concentration of PpIX in tumor and liver tissues and serum increased in a time-dependent manner after the i.v. administration of 5-ALA; PpIX concentrations reached their peak level after 5-7 h. The concentration of SnCe6 reached its maximum value in the tumor tissue and serum immediately after i.v. administration. The combined treatment of 5-ALA or SnCe6 with ultrasound irradiation showed a significant antitumor effect towards EMT6/KU solid tumors. We evaluated the pharmacokinetic properties and sonosensitizing activities of 5-ALA and SnCe6 in a chick embryo model and found that 5-ALA might be more suitable as a sonosensitizer than SnCe6.

(要約) We are developing a neutron dynamic therapy (NDT) with boron tracedrugs for a new mechanical-clearance treatment of pathotoxic misfolded, aggregated, and self-propagating prion-associated disease proteins. We present a compact neutron generator-based NDT using a boron tracedrug UTX-51. Our NDT is based on the weak thermal neutron-bombarded destructive action of UTX-51 on bovine serum albumin (BSA) using the neutron beams produced from a compact inertial electrostatic confinement fusion (IECF) neutron generator. BSA as an NDT molecular target was subjected to thermal neutron irradiation for eight hours using a compact neutron generator. The sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis pattern showed no protein band when 2 nmoles of BSA were irradiated with more than 100 nmoles of UTX-51, while BSA was not affected when irradiated without UTX-51. For the first time, we have succeeded in the molecular destruction of a prion-disease model protein, BSA, by NDT with a boron tracedrug, UTX-51, using a compact neutron generator.

(要約) Conventional therapies for diseases that are associated with protein aggregation typically prevent rather than clear protein aggregates. We have proposed neutron dynamic therapy (NDT) as a physical clearance therapy for protein aggregates. Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), which are aggregated proteins, have been implicated in diabetes, Alzheimer's, and heart disease. Herein, we report the use of the boron tracedrug UTX-51, under thermal neutron irradiation, as an NDT for the targeted clearance of glycated bovine serum albumin (Gly-BSA), a model of AGEs. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was performed to detect Gly-BSA decomposition by thermal neutron irradiation treated with UTX-51. The combination of UTX-51 with neutron irradiation showed a decrease in band intensity of Gly-BSA. We present our NDT strategy, which has been used for the targeted clearance of Gly-BSA, suggesting that NDT with boron tracedrugs can be used for the treatment of AGEs-related disease.

(要約) Macrophages play important roles in antitumor immunity, and immunotherapy with the group-specific component protein-derived macrophage-activating factor (GcMAF) has been reported to be effective in patients with various types of cancers. However, in macrophage research, it is important to properly evaluate macrophage activity. U937 macrophages were induced by 12-O-tetradecanoyl-13-phorbolacetate (TPA). The phagocytic activity of macrophages was evaluated as the internalized beads ratio. The MAF activity was assessed at 30 min after MAF addition as the activation ratio. We established a novel assay for phagocytic activities using differentiated U937 macrophages. The novel protocol was simple and rapid and was sensitive for GcMAF. This protocol should be useful not only for basic studies, such as those on molecular mechanisms underlying macrophage activation, but also for clinical studies, such as assessment of GcMAF activity prior to clinical use.

(要約) Antioxidants have been demonstrated to exert beneficial effects as pharmacotherapies for cardiovascular diseases. The in vitro systems generally employed to evaluate antioxidants, however, are limited by having no appreciable in vivo redox status of the antioxidants. Therefore, we used our developing chicken egg model to evaluate the in vivo antioxidative activity of a redox nanoparticle possessing 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (RNP(O)). The 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride (AAPH) elicited strong oxidative stress and its LD50 value for chick embryos was 3.5±0.9mg/egg. The low molecular weight nitroxide compound, 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPOL), which is known to have the highest level of antioxidant activity, showed no significant protective effect against AAPH-induced embryo lethality. On the contrary, RNP(O) had potent protective effects against AAPH-induced embryo lethality. Moreover, RNP(O) could significantly suppress the production of lipid peroxides in chick serum induced by hydrocortisone. Since RNP(O) has a longer retention time in blood than TEMPOL, RNP(O) may protect the embryo against lethal oxidative stress by suppressing lipid peroxidation. The validity of in vivo experiments using developing chicken eggs was supported by our data, where RNP(O) was determined to elicit strong antioxidative activity in vivo, irrespective of the lack of a significant difference in the in vitro activity between low-molecular weight TEMPOL and RNP(O). Our results support the use of the developing chicken egg model to evaluate the potential in vivo antioxidative activity of RNP(O).

(要約) The scavenging activity of rat plasma against hyperthermia-induced reactive oxygen species was tested. The glutathione-dependent reduction of a nitroxyl radical, 4-hydroxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl, which was restricted by adding superoxide dismutase or by deoxygenating the reaction mixture, was applied to an index of superoxide (O2 (·-)) generation. A reaction mixture containing 0.1 mM 4-hydroxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl and 1 mM glutathione was prepared using 100 mM phosphate buffer containing 0.05 mM diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid. The reaction mixture was kept in a screw-top vial and incubated in a water bath at 37 or 44°C. The time course of the electron paramagnetic resonance signal of 4-hydroxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl in the reaction mixture was measured by an X-band EPR spectrometer (JEOL, Tokyo, Japan). When the same experiment was performed using rat plasma instead of 100 mM PB, the glutathione-dependent reduction of 4-hydroxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl, i.e., generation of O2 (·-), was not obtained. Only the first-order decay reduction of 4-hydroxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl, which indicates direct reduction of 4-hydroxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl, was obtained in rat plasma. Adding 0.5% albumin to the phosphate buffer reaction mixture could almost completely inhibit O2 (·-) generation at 37°C. However, addition of 0.5% albumin could not inhibit O2 (·-) generation at 44°C, i.e., hyperthermic temperature. Ascorbic acid also showed inhibition of O2 (·-) generation by 0.01 mM at 37°C, but 0.02 mM or more could inhibit O2 (·-) generation at 44°C. A higher concentration of ascorbic acid showed first-order reduction, i.e., direct one-electron reduction, of 4-hydroxyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl. Hyperthermia-induced O2 (·-) generation in rat plasma can be mostly inhibited by albumin and ascorbic acid in the plasma.

(要約) Group-specific component (Gc)-globulin-derived macrophage-activating factor (GcMAF) generated by a cascade of catalytic reactions with deglycosidase enzymes exerts antitumor activity. We hypothesized that degalactosyl Gc-globulin (DG3), a precursor of GcMAF, also plays a role in recovery from cancer as well as GcMAF due to progression of deglycosylation by generally resident sialidases and mannosidases. We prepared the subtypes of DG3, such as 1f1f and 1s1s and its 22 homodimers, by using vitamin D3-binding Sepharose CL-6B and examined their antitumor activity in mice bearing Lewis lung carcinoma cells, by counting the number of nodules formed in their lungs. Antitumor activity of DG3 was observed regardless of its subtype, being equivalent to that of GcMAF. The injection route of DG3 affected its antitumor activity, with subcutaneous and intramuscular administration being more favorable than the intraperitoneal or intravenous route. In order to obtain significant antitumor activity, more than 160 ng/kg of DG3 were required. DG3 proved to be promising as an antitumor agent, similarly to GcMAF.

(要約) The group-specific component protein-derived macrophage-activating factor (GcMAF) has various biological activities, such as macrophage activation and antitumor activity. Clinical trials of GcMAF have been carried out for metastatic breast cancer, prostate cancer, and metastatic colorectal cancer. In this study, despite the complicated purification process of GcMAF, we used enzymatically-treated human serum containing GcMAF with a considerable macrophage-stimulating activity and antitumor activity. We detected GcMAF in degalactosylated/desialylated human serum by western blotting using an anti-human Gc globulin antibody, and Helix pomatia agglutinin lectin. We also found that GcMAF-containing human serum significantly enhanced the phagocytic activity of mouse peritoneal macrophages and extended the survival time of mice bearing Ehrlich ascites tumors. We demonstrated that GcMAF-containing human serum can be used as a potential macrophage activator for cancer immunotherapy.

(要約) Lysophosphatidic acid (lysoPtdOH), a lysophospholipid mediator, exerts diverse physiological effects, including angiogenesis, through its specific G-protein-coupled receptors. Previously, we showed that unfertilized hen egg white contains polyunsaturated fatty acid-rich lysoPtdOH and lysophospholipase D (lysoPLD). Here, we examined whether lysoPtdOH was produced by lysoPLD in the presence and absence of a hen fertilized ovum and what the physiological role of lysoPtdOH in hen egg white is. Mass spectrometry showed that fertilized hen egg white contained about 8 μM lysoPtdOH before incubation with an ovum, mainly comprised of 18:1- (12.6 %), 18:2- (37.8 %) and 20:4-molecular species (41.5 %). In an early gestation period, the lysoPtdOH was increased up to 9.6 μM, concomitant with a decrease in the level of polyunsaturated lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPtdCho). Moreover, lysoPtdOH-degrading activities were found in egg white and the vitelline membrane, showing that these enzymes control lysoPtdOH levels in egg white. In an egg yolk angiogenesis assay, two lysoPtdOH receptor antagonists, Ki16425 and N-palmitoyl serine phosphoric acid (NASP), inhibited blood vessel formation induced by exogenously added 18:1-lysoPtdOH and its precursor lysoPtdCho on the hen yolk sac. Ki16425 and NASP also inhibited blood vessel formation in the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM). Furthermore, the relatively higher levels of LPA1, LPA2, LPA4 and LPA6 mRNA were present in the yolk sac and CAM. These results suggest that lysoPtdOH produced from lysoPtdCho by the action of lysoPLD in hen egg white is involved in the formation of blood vessel networks through several lysoPtdOH receptors on various extraembryonic membranes, including the yolk sac membrane and CAM.

(要約) Tumor hypoxia has been considered to be a potential therapeutic target, because hypoxia is a common feature of solid tumors and is associated with their malignant phenotype. In the present study, we investigated the antitumor effect of a novel hypoxic cytotoxin, 3-[2-hydroxyethyl(methyl)amino]-2-quinoxalinecarbonitrile 1,4-dioxide (TX-2098) in inhibiting the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), and consequently vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) expression in pancreatic cancer. The antitumor effects of TX-2098 under hypoxia were tested against various human pancreatic cancer cell lines using WST-8 assay. VEGF protein induced pancreatic cancer was determined on cell-free supernatant by ELISA. Moreover, nude mice bearing subcutaneously (s.c.) or orthotopically implanted human SUIT-2 were treated with TX-2098. Tumor volume, survival and expression of HIF-1 and associated molecules were evaluated in treatment versus control groups. In vitro, TX-2098 inhibited the proliferation of various pancreatic cancer cell lines. In s.c model, tumors from nude mice injected with pancreatic cancer cells and treated with TX-2098 showed significant reductions in volume (P<0.01 versus control). Quantitative real-time reverse transcription-PCR analysis revealed that TX-2098 significantly inhibited mRNA expression of the HIF-1 associated molecules, VEGF, glucose transporter 1 and Aldolase A (P<0.01 versus control). These treatments also prolong the survival in orthotopic models. These results suggest that the effect of TX-2098 in pancreatic cancer might be correlated with the expression of VEGF and HIF-1 targeted molecules.

(要約) The 1f1f subtype of the group-specific component (Gc) protein is converted into Gc protein-derived macrophage-activating factor (GcMAF) by enzymatic processing with β-galactosidase and sialidase. We previously demonstrated that preGc(1f1f)MAF, a full Gc(1f1f) protein otherwise lacking a galactosyl moiety, can be converted to GcMAF by treatment with mouse peritoneal fluid. Here, we investigated the effects of the β-galactosidase-treated 1s1s and 22 subtypes of Gc protein (preGc(1s1s)MAF and preGc22MAF) on the phagocytic activation of mouse peritoneal macrophages. We demonstrated the presence of Gal-GalNAc disaccharide sugar structures in the Gc(1s1s) protein by western blotting using peanut agglutinin and Helix pomatia agglutinin lectin. We also found that preGc(1s1s)MAF and preGc22MAF significantly enhanced the phagocytic activity of mouse peritoneal macrophages in the presence and absence of mouse peritoneal fluid. We demonstrate that preGc(1s1s)MAF and preGc22MAF proteins can be used as effective macrophage activators.

(要約) Female flowers of hop (Humulus lupulus L.) develop a large number of glandular trichomes called lupulin glands that contain a variety of prenylated compounds such as α- and β-acid (humulone and lupulone, respectively), as well as xanthohumol, a chalcone derivative. These prenylated compounds are biosynthesized by prenyltransferases catalyzing the transfer of dimethylallyl moiety to aromatic substances. In our previous work, we found HlPT-1 a candidate gene for such a prenyltransferase in a cDNA library constructed from lupulin-enriched flower tissues. In this study, we have characterized the enzymatic properties of HlPT-1 using a recombinant protein expressed in baculovirus-infected insect cells. HlPT-1 catalyzed the first transfer of dimethylallyl moiety to phloroglucinol derivatives, phlorisovalerophenone, phlorisobutyrophenone and phlormethylbutanophenone, leading to the formation of humulone and lupulone derivatives. HlPT-1 also recognized naringenin chalcone as a flavonoid substrate to yield xanthohumol, and this broad substrate specificity is a unique character of HlPT-1 that is not seen in other reported flavonoid prenyltransferases, all of which show strict specificity for their aromatic substrates. Moreover, unlike other aromatic substrate prenyltransferases, HlPT-1 revealed an exclusive requirement for Mg(2+) as a divalent cation for its enzymatic activity and also showed exceptionally narrow optimum pH at around pH 7.0.

(要約) A high incidence of recurrence after treatment is the most serious problem in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Therefore, a new strategy for the treatment of the disease is needed. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether vitamin D binding protein-macrophage activating factor (DBP-maf) is able to inhibit the growth of HCC. The effects of DBP-maf on endothelial cells and macrophage were evaluated by WST-1 assay and phagocytosis assay, respectively. Human HCC cells (HepG2) were implanted into the dorsum of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice. These mice were divided into control and DBP-maf treatment groups (n = 10/group). The mice in the treatment group received 40 ng/kg/d of DBP-maf for 21 d. DBP-maf showed anti-proliferative activity against endothelial cells and also activated phagocytosis by macrophages. DBP-maf inhibited the growth of HCC cells (treatment group: 126 ± 18mm(3), untreated group: 1691.5 ± 546.9mm(3), P = 0.0077). Histologic examinations of the tumors revealed the microvessel density was reduced and more macrophage infiltration was demonstrated in the tumor of mice in the treatment group. DBP-maf has at least two novel functions, namely, an anti-angiogenic activity and tumor killing activity through the activation of macrophages. DBP-maf may therefore represent a new strategy for the treatment of HCC.

(要約) We previously designed the boron tracedrugs UTX-42, UTX-43, and UTX-44, which possess antioxidant potency. In order to explore their destructive dynamic effects when bombarded by weak thermal neutrons, we performed thermal neutron irradiation of bovine serum albumin (BSA) treated with the boron tracedrugs. Boron tracedrugs, including the boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY)-containing compounds UTX-42, UTX-44, and UTX-47 and the curcuminoid compounds UTX-50 and UTX-51, were designed for neutron dynamic therapy based on their molecular orbital calculation. Newly designed UTX-47, UTX-50, and UTX-51 were synthesized. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was performed to detect decomposition by thermal neutron irradiation of BSA treated with these boron tracedrugs. The combination of 1.0 μM BSA with 100 μM of each of the boron tracedrugs showed a decrease in band intensity after irradiation. All boron tracedrugs tested caused destructive dynamic damage of BSA during thermal neutron irradiation, suggesting that boron tracedrugs could be used as dynamic drugs for neutron dynamic therapy.

(要約) The 1f1f subtype of the Gc protein (Gc(1f1f) protein) was converted into Gc-derived macrophage-activating factor (GcMAF) by enzymatic processing in the presence of β-galactosidase of an activated B-cell and sialidase of a T-cell. We hypothesized that preGc(1f1f)MAF, the only Gc(1f1f) protein lacking galactose, can be converted to GcMAF in vivo because sialic acid is cleaved by residual sialidase. Hence, we investigated the effect of preGc(1f1f)MAF on the phagocytic activation of mouse peritoneal macrophages. We examined the sugar moiety of preGc(1f1f)MAF with a Western blot using peanut agglutinin (PNA) and Helix pomatia agglutinin (HPA) lectin. We also found that preGc(1f1f)MAF significantly enhanced phagocytic activity in mouse peritoneal macrophages but only in the presence of the mouse peritoneal fluid; the level of phagocytic activity was the same as that observed for GcMAF. PreGc(1f1f)MAF can be used as an effective macrophage activator in vivo.

(要約) Chick embryos have been used as alternative experimental animals in various research fields, including virology, immunology, toxicology, oncology, and embryology. Until now, there have been no in vivo models using chick embryo to evaluate radiosensitizing activity. Here, the in vivo radiosensitizing activity of etanidazole, a well-known hypoxic cell radiosensitizer, was evaluated using tumor-bearing chick embryo. On the basis of tumor growth, drug administration and X-ray irradiation were performed on day 15 chick embryo, with the endpoint being day 18 chick embryo. In day 15 chick embryo, an X-ray irradiation dose of equal or less than 10 Gy did not cause significant tumor growth suppression. Intravenous administration of equal or less than 1.0 mg of etanidazole did not cause tumor growth suppression. Neither doses of equal or less than 8 Gy of irradiation nor 1.0 mg of etanidazole caused fatality of the chick embryo. On the basis of these results, we evaluated the radiosensitizing effect of a combination treatment with 8 Gy of irradiation and 1.0 mg of etanidazole. As noted above, 1.0 mg of etanidazole alone and 8 Gy of irradiation alone did not show tumor growth suppression. In contrast, a combination treatment with 8 Gy of irradiation and 1.0 mg of etanidazole showed 35% of significant tumor growth suppression. Thus, we succeeded in evaluating the in vivo radiosensitizing activity of etanidazole using tumor-bearing chick embryo. These results suggest that the use of tumor-bearing chick embryo may be part of a promising system for evaluating radiosensitizing activity.

(要約) The fullerene-exchange reaction from a cyclodextrin cavity to liposomes represents one of the best methods to prepare lipid membrane-incorporated [70]fullerenes (C(70)). The C(70)-exchange reaction occurred completely at temperatures above the phase transition temperature (T(m)) of the liposomes; however, lowering the temperature to below the T(m) led to C(70) aggregation outside the liposomes. This observation has limited the development of more functional LMIC(70) using a variety of liposome compositions. In this paper, this reaction was found to occur efficiently by the addition of small amounts of lipids bearing a ϖ-moiety. The ϖ-moieties act as a gate when hydrophobic C(70) migrates into the hydrophilic liposome surface. Therefore, the ϖ-moieties should exist in the polar head groups of the lipids and the C(70)-exchange reaction can be controlled by pH.

We found the percentage of volunteers with their age-matched (AM) values of above 100% to be 89%, and also a moderate positive correlation between AM values and the intake period of E-Ca. Our findings demonstrate that AM values can be used as an effective indicator assessing osteogenesis by regularly administrated calcium agents which exert their effects after long-term use.

(要約) We presented here design, syntheses and inhibitory activities of novel hypoxia-targeting IDO hybrid inhibitors conjugated with an unsubstituted L-Trp as an IDO affinity moiety without inhibitor 1MT, such as L-Trp-TPZ hybrids 1 (TX-2274), 2 (UTX-3), 3 (UTX-4), and 4 (UTX-2). TPZ-monoxide hybrids 1 and 3 were good competitive IDO inhibitors, while TPZ hybrids 2 and 4 were uncompetitive IDO inhibitors. Among them TPZ-monoxide hybrid 1 have the strongest IDO inhibitory activity. It suggests that TPZ-monoxide hybrids 1 and 3 are able to bind the active site of IDO, TPZ hybrids 2 and 4 are able to bind the enzyme-substrate complex. We proposed the possible mechanism of action of TPZ hybrid 2 that may first affect as a hypoxic cytotoxin, and then metabolized to TPZ-monoxide hybrid 1, which may do as an IDO inhibitor more effectively than its parent TPZ hybrid 2.

Rose : Structural Investigation of the Binding of 5-Substituted Swainsonine Analogues to Golgi -Mannosidase II, ChemBioChem, Vol.11, No.5, 673-680, 2010. (要約) Golgi alpha-mannosidase II (GMII) is a key enzyme in the N-glycosylation pathway and is a potential target for cancer chemotherapy. The natural product swainsonine is a potent inhibitor of GMII. In this paper we characterize the binding of 5alpha-substituted swainsonine analogues to the soluble catalytic domain of Drosophila GMII by X-ray crystallography. These inhibitors enjoy an advantage over previously reported GMII inhibitors in that they did not significantly decrease the inhibitory potential of the swainsonine head-group. The phenyl groups of these analogues occupy a portion of the binding site not previously seen to be populated with either substrate analogues or other inhibitors and they form novel hydrophobic interactions. They displace a well-organized water cluster, but the presence of a C(10) carbonyl allows the reestablishment of important hydrogen bonds. Already approximately tenfold more active against the Golgi enzyme than the lysosomal enzyme, these inhibitors offer the potential of being extended into the N-acetylglucosamine binding site of GMII for the creation of even more potent and selective GMII inhibitors.

(要約) Purpose It is well known that hypoxic milieu is the primary cancer environment. Therefore, tumor hypoxia is considered to be a potential therapeutic target. In the present study, we investigated the antitumor and antimetastatic effect of hypoxic cell radiosensitizer, TX-1877 on xenograft model of rectal cancer. Methods Nude mice bearing subcutaneously or orthotopically implanted human colon cancer cell lines HCT-116 and HT-29 were treated with TX-1877, irradiation or TX-1877 with irradiation. Tumor volume, survival, expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, MMP-7, MMP-9 and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and incidence of lymph node metastasis were evaluated in treatment versus control group. Results In subcutaneous model, tumor treated with TX-1877 and irradiation showed significant reductions in volume (P < 0.05 vs. control, TX-1877 or irradiation group). Quantitative real-time reverse transcription-PCR and immunohistochemical analysis revealed that TX-1877 significantly inhibited expression of the MMP-9 and uPA. These treatments also inhibited the para-aortic lymph node metastasis, however, did not prolong the survival in orthotopic model. Conclusions These data show that the treatment of TX-1877 with irradiation decreased growth of human rectal cancer and, furthermore, suppressed lymph node metastasis.

(要約) We have designed and evaluated UTX-12 as a novel fluorescent pH probe for tumor hypoxia imaging. UTX-12 consists of a p-nitro benzyl moiety, which is a latent hypoxia-selective leaving group activated by nitro reduction, directly linked to SNARF. Although UTX-12 itself is colorless and non-fluorescent in aqueous solution, nitro reduction triggers the release of SNARF which has well-characterized long wavelength absorption and fluorescence that is sensitive to pH. The resultant SNARF, released intracellularly by enzymatic reduction of UTX-12, allows measurement of pH by pH-dependent dual emission shifts. UTX-12 showed clear differences in fluorescence behavior between hypoxic and aerobic conditions in liver microsomes and inside V79 cells. These data are confirmation that UTX-12 is biologically reduced inside tumor cells and the released SNARF should monitor intracellular pH of tumor cells selectively with reduced background signal.

(要約) Propolis possesses various physiological activities. In this study, we examined the antiangiogenic and antioxidant activities of various components from propolis: acacetin, apigenin, artepillin C, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, chrysin, p-coumaric acid, galangin, kaempferol, pinocembrin, and quercetin. The effects of these components were tested on in vitro models of angiogenesis, tube formation and growth of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Furthermore, these components were evaluated for their antioxidant activities by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical-scavenging and ferric reducing/antioxidant power (FRAP) assays. Two propolis components, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, and quercetin, possessed strong inhibitory effects on tube formation and on endothelial cell proliferation and, coincidentally, showed strong antioxidant activity. Artepillin C, galangin, and kaempferol also possessed strong antiangiogenic and antioxidant activities to a slightly less degree. In contrast, acacetin, apigenin, and pinocembrin possessed a considerable degree of antiangiogenic activities, although they showed very low antioxidant activities. From these results, we propose that components from propolis such as artepillin C, caffeic acid phenethyl ester, galangin, kaempferol, and quercetin might represent a new class of dietary-derived antioxidative compounds with antiangiogenic activities. These propolis components may have the potential to be developed into pharmaceutical drugs for the treatment of angiogenesis-dependent human diseases such as tumors.

(要約) There are mainly three types of propolis whose major anticancer ingredients are entirely different: (1) CAPE (caffeic acid phenethyl ester)-based propolis in Europe, Far East and New Zealand, (2) artepillin C (ARC)-based Brazilian green propolis and (3) Brazilian red propolis. It was shown previously that NF (neurofibromatosis)-associated tumors require the kinase PAK1 for their growth, and CAPE-based propolis extracts such as Bio 30 suppress completely the growth of NF tumors in vivo by blocking PAK1 signaling. Also it was demonstrated that ARC suppresses angiogenesis, suggesting the possibility that ARC also blocks oncogenic PAK1 signaling. Here it is shown for the first time that both ARC and green propolis extract (GPE) indeed block the PAK1 signaling selectively, without affecting another kinase known as AKT. Furthermore, it was confirmed that ARC as well as GPE suppress almost completely the growth of human NF tumor xenografts in mice, as does Bio 30. These results suggest that both CAPE-based and ARC-based propolis extracts are natural anti-PAK1 remedies and could be among the first effective NF therapeutics available on the market. Since more than 70% of human cancers such as breast and prostate cancers require the kinase PAK1 for their growth, it is quite possible that GPE could be potentially useful for the treatment of these cancers, as is Bio 30.

(要約) Phytyl quinols, namely acyclic tocopherols, are key intermediates of tocopherol biosynthesis, but their biological activities remain unclear. We therefore investigated the structure-activity relationship of phytyl quinols to apply a chemical biosynthesis design for an antiatherosclerosis drug based on isoprenomics. We have achieved the biosynthesis-oriented design and synthesis of alpha- (TX-2254) and beta-(TX-2247) phytyl quinol as an unnatural intermediate, other gamma- (TX-2242) and delta-(TX-2231) phytyl quinol as a natural one. Geometry optimization and Molecular orbital (MO) calculation of TX-2254 showed a unique right-angle structure; however, MO energy of TX-2254 and d-alpha-tocopherol were very similar. Radical reactivity of TX-2231 was equal to dl-alpha-tocopherol, whereas TX-2254, TX-2247, and TX-2231 showed lower reactivity than dl-alpha-tocopherol. All four phytyl quinols showed almost the same moderate inhibitory activity against low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation instead of their different degree of C-methylation with character different from tocopherols. In vivo toxicities of phytyl quinols against chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) vasculature were hardly observed. We proposed phytyl quinols were possible antioxidants in plants and animals, like vitamin E.

(要約) Tumor hypoxia has been considered to be a potential therapeutic target, because hypoxia is a common feature of solid tumors and is associated with their malignant phenotype. In the present study, we investigated the antitumor effect of hypoxic cell radiosensitizer, TX-1877 in inhibiting angiogenesis and liver metastasis on pancreatic cancer xenograft model. The antitumor effects of TX-1877 were tested against various human tumor cell lines using cell proliferation assay. Nude mice bearing s.c. or orthotopically implanted human SUIT-2 were treated with TX-1877 alone, irradiation alone or TX-1877 and irradiation. Tumor volume, survival, expression of angiogenic molecules and liver metastasis were evaluated in treatment versus control groups. In vitro, TX-1877 inhibited the proliferation and potentiated the radiosensitivity of various pancreatic cancer cell lines. In an orthotopic model, tumors from nude mice injected with pancreatic cancer cells and treated with TX-1877 and irradiation showed significant reductions in volume (p<0.05 versus control, TX-1877 alone or irradiation alone). Quantitative real-time reverse transcription-PCR and immunohistochemical analysis revealed that treatment with TX-1877 alone or with TX-1877 and irradiation inhibited expression of the angiogenic molecules, vascular endothelial growth factor; basic fibroblast growth factor, interleukin-8 and matrix metalloproteinase 9 more than control or did treatment with irradiation alone. These treatments also induced apoptosis in cancer cells. These data show that treatment of TX-1877 and irradiation decreased growth of human pancreatic cancer, suppressed angiogenesis and inhibited liver metastasis, leading to prolonged survival.

(要約) We have designed and synthesized new hypoxic-neoplastic cells-targeted indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) inhibitors. 1-Methyl-tryptophan (1MT)-tirapazamine (TPZ, 3-amino-1,2,4-benzotriazine 1,4-dioxide) hybrid inhibitors including 1 (TX-2236), 2 (TX-2235), 3 (TX-2228), and 4 (TX-2234) were prepared. All of these compounds were uncompetitive IDO inhibitors. TPZ-monoxide hybrids 1 and 3 showed higher IDO inhibitory activities than TPZ hybrids 2 and 4. Among these hybrids, hybrid 1 was the most potent IDO inhibitor. TPZ hybrids 2 and 4 showed stronger hypoxia-selective cytotoxicity than TPZ to EMT6/KU cells. These data suggest that TPZ hybrids 2 and 4 may act through their dual biological functions: first, they function as hypoxic cytotoxins in hypoxic cells, and then are metabolized to their TPZ-monoxide (3-amino-1,2,4-benzotriazine 1-oxide) hybrids, which function as IDO inhibitors.

(要約) We designed FTY720 analogues with conformationally rigid and electron-rich acetylenic chains as antiangiogenic agents (the monoyne 1: TX-2148, the diyne 2: TX-2152, the triyne 3: TX-2256). Molecular orbital (MO) calculations of our designed acetylenic analogues and FTY720 showed that the localization of the lowest unoccupied MO and the highest occupied MO increased from phenyl ring to acetylenic chain compared with that of FTY720. These acetylenic analogues were synthesized from p-hydroxyphenylethanol as a starting material. The construction of the acetylenic chain was carried out by an iterative strategy using a Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction and desilylative bromination in two steps. The corresponding overall yields of the monoyne 1, the diyne 2, and the triyne 3 were 27% (11 steps), 13% (13 steps), and 10% (15 steps). The in vivo antiangiogenic activities of these acetylenic analogues and FTY720 were evaluated by the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay and compared to the activities of the known antiangiogenic agent TNP-470. The diyne 2 showed more potent antiangiogenic activity (90% inhibition) than FTY720 (77% inhibition) and other acetylenic analogues (the monoyne 1: 42% inhibition, the triyne 3: 60% inhibition), and TNP-470 (82% inhibition) at a dose of 10 μg/CAM, without showing toxicity. The diyne 2 also had potent inhibitory activity at a dose of 5 and 2.5 μg/CAM. These results indicate that the flexibility of C8 alkyl chain of FTY720 is not required for its antiangiogenic activity. We suggest that the diyne 2 (TX-2152) may be a promising candidate as an antiangiogenic agent for antineoplastic drug discovery.

(要約) We designed chiral 2-nitroimidazole derivatives containing a 2-aminomethylene-4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione moiety as antiangiogenic hypoxic cell radiosensitizers. Based on results of molecular orbital calculations, the 2-aminomethylene-4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione moiety is expected to show high electrophilicity comparable to that of the 2-methylene-4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione moiety included in TX-1123 and tyrphostin AG17. We evaluated the antiangiogenic and radiosensitizing effects of the new compounds, along with other biological properties including their activities as hypoxic cytotoxicities and protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitory activities. Among the compounds tested, 5 (TX-2036) proved to be the strongest antiangiogenic hypoxic cell radiosensitizer. All the other chiral 2-nitroimidazole derivatives having 2-aminomethylene-4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione moiety tested were also antiangiogenic hypoxic cell radiosensitizers. The PTK inhibitory activity of 5 (TX-2036) showed this to be a promising and potent EGFR kinase inhibitor, having an IC50 value of lower than 2 μM. This compound also was an Flt-1 kinase inhibitor having an IC50 value of lower than 20 μM. Our results show that these chiral 2-nitroimidazole derivatives that contain the 2-aminomethylene-4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione moiety as a potent antiangiogenic pharmacophoric descriptor are promising lead candidates for the development of antiangiogenic hypoxic cell radiosensitizers.

Bretz : Anti-inflammatory effects of a bioavailable compound, Artepillin C, in Brazilian propolis, European Journal of Pharmacology, Vol.587, No.1-3, 296-301, 2008. (要約) Artepillin C is the major compound in the Brazilian green propolis from Baccharis dracunculifolia. Our aim in this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects, absorption, and bioavailability of Artepillin C in mice. The animals used were male Swiss mice subjected to: paw oedema by carrageenan (300 μg/paw), carrageenan-induced peritonitis, and prostaglandin E2 determination. We also measured in vitro nitric oxide production by RAW 264.7 cells and NF-κB activity in HEK 293 cells. Finally, we measured the absorption and bioavailability of Artepillin C in plasma from mice by means of GC-MS after a single oral dose (10 mg/kg). In vivo, Artepillin C produced a maximal inhibition of 38% after 360 min on paw oedema. Artepillin C also decreased the number of neutrophils during peritonitis (IC50: 0.9 (0.5 1.4) mg/kg). Treatment with Artepillin C decreased prostaglandin E2 by 29 ± 3% and 58 ± 5% at 1 and 10 mg/kg, respectively, with a mean ID50 of 8.5 (8.0 8.7)mg/kg). Similarly, in in vitro models, Artepillin C (3, 10, or 100 μM) decreased nitric oxide production by RAW 264.7 cells with a mean IC50 of 8.5 (7.8 9.2) μM. In HEK 293 cells, Artepillin C reduced NF-κB activity with a mean IC50 of 26 (22 30) μg/ml), suggesting anti-inflammatory activity, particularly during acute inflammation. Lastly, Artepillin C was absorbed after an oral dose (10 mg/kg) with maximal peaks found at 1 h (22 μg/ml). Collectively, Artepillin C showed anti-inflammatory effects mediated, at least in part, by prostaglandin E2 and nitric oxide inhibition through NF-κB modulation, and exhibited bioavailability by oral administration.

(要約) We have designed sugar-hybrid TX-1877 derivatives conjugated with sugar moieties including β-glucose (β-Glc), β-galactose (β-Gal), α-mannose (α-Man) and N-acetyl-β-galactosamine (β-GalNAc). Compound 1 (TX-1877) was glycosylated with appropriate peracetylated sugars using BF3-OEt2 to give acetylated sugar-hybrids, 5 (TX-2244), 6 (TX-2245), 7 (TX-2246), and 10 (TX-2243). Removal of the acetyl groups afforded the sugar-hybrids having free hydroxyl groups, 11 (TX-2141), 12 (TX-2218), 13 (TX-2217) and 14 (TX-2068). We evaluated their radiosensitizing activities by an in vitro radiosensitization assay. All free hydroxyl hybrids have lower enhancement ratio (ER) values (ER 1.43) and lower n-octanol/water partition coefficient (Poct) values (Poct < 1.00 × 10-2) than does 1 (TX-1877, ER = 1.75, Poct: 5.60 × 10-2). All acetylated hybrids have similar Poct values (3.55 × 10-2 1.05 × 10-1) to 1 (TX-1877) and have improved ER values (ER 1.47) compared to the hybrids having free hydroxyl groups. Among these, 5 (TX-2244) is the most active radiosensitizer (ER = 2.30). We found a good correlation (r = 0.866) between the magnitude of Poct (logPoct) and the ER value of 5 (TX-2244), 6 (TX-2245), 7 (TX-2246), 10 (TX-2243) and 1 (TX-1877), suggesting that increasing the hydrophobicity is reflected in increased in vitro radiosensitizing activity. In the present study, we have succeeded in producing sugar-hybrid hypoxic cell radiosensitizers that have an increased radiosensitizing activity that does not depend on increased hydrophobicity.

(要約) BACKGROUND: Angiogenesis is required for tumor growth and metastasis, and is an exciting target for cancer treatment. We designed and synthesized antiangiogenetic TX agent (TX-1898, -1900), and analyzed their structural features. TXs have a chiral center and S- and R-enantiomers. Conformation analysis and molecular dynamics simulation were undertaken. Materials and METHODS: Molecular models of TXs were constructed using InsightlI-Discover. Conformation analysis was performed with CONFLEX, and z-matrix data were extracted to calculate molecular orbital (MO) parameters (i.e. solvation free energy (dGW)). Their molecular dynamics were simulated with the Discover3 module, and the total energy and dihedral angles were estimated. RESULTS: The methyl-including TXs (Group 1: TX-1863, -1878, -1866, -1879) had 130-229 conformers (-1.26-14.6 kcal/mol). The t-butyl-including group (Group 2: TX-1880, -1881, -1882, -1883) had 244 - 294 conformers (3.69 - 16. 76 kcal/mol), and the p-t-butylphenyl-containing TXs (Group 3: TX-1897, -1899, -1898, -1900) had 584 - 711 conformers (-7.48 -5.18 kcal/mol). The dGWprofile of nine samples, which were extracted from these conformers, were examined and one minimum dGW point was observed in the haloacetylcarbamoyl-2-nitroimidazole TXs (Group 1 -3). CONCLUSION: TX-1898 exhibited significant antiangiogenic activity. The order of antiangiogenic activity was as follows: TX-1898 (93% at 5 microg/pellet) > TX-1900 (82% at 5 microg/pellet) > TX-1897 (64% at 10 microg/pellet) > TX-1899 (58% at 10 microg/pellet). The chiral center has an important role for orienting the molecular characteristics.

(要約) Genes encoding 2-deoxy-d-ribose-5-phosphate aldolase (DERA) homologues from two hyperthermophiles, the archaeon Pyrobaculum aerophilum and the bacterium Thermotoga maritima, were expressed individually in Escherichia coli, after which the structures and activities of the enzymes produced were characterized and compared with those of E. coli DERA. To our surprise, the two hyperthermophilic DERAs showed much greater catalysis of sequential aldol condensation using three acetaldehydes as substrates than the E. coli enzyme, even at a low temperature (25 degrees C), although both enzymes showed much less 2-deoxy-d-ribose-5-phosphate synthetic activity. Both the enzymes were highly resistant to high concentrations of acetaldehyde and retained about 50% of their initial activities after a 20-h exposure to 300 mM acetaldehyde at 25 degrees C, whereas the E. coli DERA was almost completely inactivated after a 2-h exposure under the same conditions. The structure of the P. aerophilum DERA was determined by X-ray crystallography to a resolution of 2.0 A. The main chain coordinate of the P. aerophilum enzyme monomer was quite similar to those of the T. maritima and E. coli enzymes, whose crystal structures have already been solved. However, the quaternary structure of the hyperthermophilic enzymes was totally different from that of the E. coli DERA. The areas of the subunit-subunit interface in the dimer of the hyperthermophilic enzymes are much larger than that of the E. coli enzyme. This promotes the formation of the unique dimeric structure and strengthens the hydrophobic intersubunit interactions. These structural features are considered responsible for the extremely high stability of the hyperthermophilic DERAs.

(要約) We clarified the usefulness of mild temperature hyperthermia (MTH) in combination with the continuous administration of tirapazamine (TPZ) under reduced dose-rate irradiation (RDRI) using gamma-rays. SCC VII tumour-bearing mice received a continuous administration of 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) to label all proliferating (P) cells. Then, they received a 24 h continuous subcutaneous infusion of TPZ either with or without MTH under high dose-rate irradiation (HDRI) or RDRI using gamma-rays. After the irradiation, the tumour cells were isolated and incubated with a cytokinesis blocker, and the micronucleus (MN) frequency in non-proliferating tumour cells without BrdU labeling (= quiescent (Q) cells) was determined using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. The MN frequency in the total tumour cell populations was determined using tumours that were not pretreated with BrdU. The sensitivity of both the total and Q cell populations, especially the latter, was significantly reduced with RDRI compared with HDRI. TPZ increased the sensitivity of both populations, with a slightly more remarkable increase in Q cells. Further, MTH combined with TPZ raised the sensitivity of both the total and Q cell populations, especially the latter, under RDRI more markedly than under HDRI. From the viewpoint of solid tumour control as a whole, including intratumour Q-cell control, the use of TPZ, especially in combination with MTH, is useful for suppressing the reduction in the sensitivity of tumour cells caused by the decrease in irradiation dose rate in vivo.

(要約) The effect of vascular disrupting agent ZD6126 with time on the sensitivity to the hypoxic cytotoxin tirapazamine (TPZ) and gamma-rays was examined in large and small solid tumors. Mice bearing SCC VII tumors 1 or 1.5 cm in diameter received 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) continuously to label all proliferating (P) cells, followed by injection with or without ZD6126. In the absence of ZD6126, or 1 or 24 h following ZD6126 injection, the response to TPZ or gamma-ray irradiation in quiescent (Q) cells was assessed in terms of induced micronucleus (MN) frequency using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. The MN frequency in the total cell population was determined from the tumors not pretreated with BrdU. Another group of tumor-bearing mice received a series of test doses of gamma-rays while alive or after tumor clamping to obtain hypoxic fractions (HFs) in the tumors. One hour after ZD6126 injection, both small and large tumors showed lower and higher sensitivity, and 24 h after, higher and lower sensitivity, to gamma-rays and TPZ, respectively, than the tumors not treated with ZD6126. Further, they showed larger and smaller HFs 1 and 24 h after ZD6126 injection, respectively. Without ZD6126 and 1 h after injection, small tumors were more sensitive to gamma-rays and less sensitive to TPZ than large tumors, probably due to the smaller HFs than large tumors. In contrast, 24 h after the injection, these differences in sensitivity and the HF between small and large tumors were reversed. The changes in sensitivity and the size of the HF were more marked in the total cell population than in Q cells. Following ZD6126 treatment, in terms of tumor control, especially large tumors and total tumor cell population, administering TPZ 1 h later and gamma-ray irradiation 24 h later were effective. Intratumor physiologic factors such as the size of the HF, depending on the time after ZD6126 injection, have to be taken into account when combining another treatment with ZD6126.

(要約) We clarified the usefulness of the continuous administration of tirapazamine (TPZ) in combination with reduced dose-rate irradiation (RDRI) using gamma-rays or reactor thermal neutrons. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) VII tumour-bearing mice received a continuous administration of 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) to label all proliferating (P) cells. Then, they received a single intraperitoneal injection or 24 h continuous subcutaneous infusion of TPZ in combination with conventional dose-rate irradiation (CDRI) or RDRI using gamma-rays or thermal neutrons. After irradiation, the tumour cells were isolated and incubated with a cytokinesis blocker, and the micronucleus (MN) frequency in cells without BrdU labelling ( = quiescent (Q) cells) was determined using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. The MN frequency in the total tumour cells was determined using tumours that were not pre-treated with BrdU. The sensitivity of both total and Q cells, especially of Q cells, was significantly reduced with RDRI compared with CDRI. Combination of TPZ increased the sensitivity of both populations, with a slightly more remarkable increase in Q cells. Furthermore, the continuous administration of TPZ raised the sensitivity of both total and Q cell populations, especially the former, more markedly than the single administration, whether combined with CDRI or RDRI using gamma-rays or thermal neutrons. From the viewpoint of solid tumour control as a whole, including intratumour Q-cell control, the use of TPZ, especially when administered continuously, combined with RDRI, is useful for suppressing the reduction in the sensitivity of tumour cells caused by the decrease in irradiation dose rate in vivo.

(要約) The risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is related to Gc protein allele type, such as Gc1F, GcIS, Gc2. It has been reported that Gc1F increased COPD risk, while Gc*2 suppressed the risk. Thus, the allele type of Gc protein is an important factor in COPD. These Gc proteins differ in sugar composition at Thr418 or Thr420. In this study, features of the sugar structure of modeled Gc proteins were investigated. Gc protein (GclF, Gc1S, Gc2) models were constructed based on X-ray data of vitamin D binding protein (ID=1J7E) using InsightII-Discover with the Homology module, and the molecular orbital (MO) parameters [e.g., dipole moment, solvation free energy (dGW)] of the oligosaccharide were analyzed. The MO parameter of the sugar moiety was different for each Gc protein model. In beta-1,4 bond models, the dipole moment of Gc2 protein was larger (56.6 debye) than Gcl type (GclF: 21.9, Gc1S: 29.8 debye) protein, and it was directed towards the intermolecular space. The Gc2 oligosaccharide region was the most hydrophobic (dGW=-999.4 KI) among the Gc proteins analyzed in this study. The electrostatic potential (ESP) field of beta-1,4 type Gc2 protein was similarly distributed to beta-1,4 linked Gcl-type proteins (GclF, GclS). In the beta-1,3 type Gc protein models, the results of these parameters (i.e., dipole moment, dGW and ESP) were similar to those of beta-1,4 type models. Conclusion: The relationship between COPD risk and the features of the sugar structure in Gc proteins was examined, and it appeared that the active factors (i.e., dipole moment, dGW) might be risk factors for COPD, but passive factors (i.e., ESP) did not affect COPD risk. The bond type (beta-1,4 or beta-1,3) between galactose and N-acetylgalactosamine did not affect the molecular features.

(要約) Tumor hypoxia has been reported to induce tumor progression in several carcinomas. Current studies have shown that hypoxia inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) is stabilized under hypoxic conditions and transactivates various genes related to cancer aggressiveness. In the present study, we examined whether hypoxia affects cancer invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma. We aimed to solve the molecular mechanism of tumor invasion under the hypoxic condition. We showed that tumor hypoxia accelerated cancer invasion in two hepatoma cell lines. Using Western blot and RT-PCR analyses we demonstrated striking evidence that the expression of HIF-1alpha, ETS-1, MMP-7 and MT1-MMP was strongly upregulated by hypoxic stimulation. To examine whether these invasion-related genes are regulated by HIF-1alpha, we treated hepatoma cells with TX-402, which was reported to repress HIF-1alpha expression. HIF-1alpha expression was strongly repressed by the TX-402 treatment. In contrast, the expression of ETS-1, MMP-7 and MT1-MMP mRNA was not affected by TX-402 treatment. We further established stable transfectants in which HIF-1alpha dominant negative vector was introduced into Hep3B cells (pHIF-1alphaDN). In the pHIF-1alphaDN cells, the expression of ETS-1, MMP-7 and MT1-MMP was not repressed. Moreover, the invasion activity of pHIF-1alphaDN was not altered, compared with that of the mock. In hepatoma cells, we provided evidence that hypoxic stress accelerates cancer invasion by upregulating ETS-1 and the MMP family by an HIF-1alpha-independent pathway.

(要約) We designed and synthesized isoprene analogues of artepillin C, a major component of Brazilian propolis, and investigated the inhibitory activity on lipid peroxidation of rat liver mitochondria (RLM) and RLM toxicity based on isoprenomics. We succeeded in the synthesis of artepillin C isoprene analogues using regioselective prenylation within the range from 22% to 53% total yield. Reactivity of artepillin C and its isoprene analogues with ABTS (2,2'-Azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate)) radical cations showed only a slight difference among the molecules. The isoprene side-chain elongation analogues of artepillin C showed almost the same inhibitory activity against RLM lipid peroxidation as artepillin C. Artepillin C and its isoprene analogues had very weak RLM uncoupling activity. Moreover, artepillin C and its isoprene analogues exhibited a lower inhibitory activity against adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) synthesis by about two orders of magnitude than the effective inhibitory activity against RLM lipid peroxidation. From these results we conclude that artepillin C isoprene analogues could be potent lipid peroxidation inhibitors having low mitochondrial toxicity. We also conclude that elongation of the isoprene side chain of artepillin C to increase lipophilicity had little influence on the inhibitory activity toward RLM lipid peroxidation.

(要約) To evaluate the usefulness of a new 10B-compound (TX-2100) as a 10B-carrier in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT), compared with the simultaneous use of its component drugs, sodium borocapate-10B (BSH) and 3-amino-2-quinoxalinecarbonitrile 1,4-dioxide (TX-402). Further, the usefulness of mild temperature hyperthermia (MTH, 40 degrees Celsius, 30 min) combined with TX-2100 was also examined compared with MTH combined with the concurrent administration with its component drugs. TX-2100 is a hybrid compound that has both a hypoxic cytotoxin unit (TX-402) and a thermal neutron-sensitizing unit (BSH). TX-2100 or both TX-402 plus BSH in combination with MTH or not was administered to SCC VII tumour-bearing mice intra-peritoneally. Then, the 10B concentrations in the tumours and normal tissues were measured by gamma-ray spectrometry. Meanwhile, SCC VII tumour-bearing mice were continuously given 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) to label all proliferating (P) cells in the tumours, then treated with TX-2100, TX-402 plus BSH or BSH only, in the same manner as in the biodistribution experiments, either with or without MTH. Right after thermal neutron irradiation during which intra-tumour 10B concentrations remained at similar levels, the tumours were excised, minced and trypsinized. The tumour cell suspensions thus obtained were incubated with cytochalasin-B (a cytokinesis blocker) and the micronucleus (MN) frequency in cells without BrdU labelling (=quiescent (Q) cells) was determined using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. Meanwhile, the MN frequency in the total (P + Q) tumour cell population was determined from the tumours that were not pre-treated with BrdU. The clonogenic cell survival was also determined in mice given no BrdU. 10B biodistribution analyses in tumours, brain, skin, muscles, blood and liver indicated that the administration of TX-2100 plus MTH is most favourable for concentrating a sufficient amount of 10B in tumours and maintaining a high enough 10B concentration during irradiation. In addition, MTH had a stronger sensitizing effect when combined with TX-2100 than with the concurrent administration of its components TX-402 and BSH on both the total and Q cell populations in solid tumours. MTH was very effective in combination with the newly-developed TX-2100. The sensitizing effect in combination with MTH should be examined when new 10B-carriers are designed.

(要約) Intratumor quiescent (Q) cells and p53-mutated tumor cells are more difficult to control than intratumor proliferating (P) cells and p53 wild-type tumor cells, respectively. The usefulness of 3 hypoxic cell radio-sensitizers was compared in terms of a radio-sensitizing effect under aerobic and hypoxic conditions and a repair-inhibiting effect following irradiation on both Q and total (P + Q) cell populations in solid tumors. The dependency of these effects on the p53 status of tumor cells was also examined using tumor cell lines with identical genetic backgrounds except for their p53 status. Human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells transfected with mutant TP53 (SAS/mp53) or with neo vector as a control (SAS/neo) were inoculated subcutaneously into both the hind legs of Balb/cA nude mice. The nude mice bearing the tumors and C3H/He mice bearing SCC VII tumors received 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) continuously to label all the P cells in the tumors. Tumor-bearing mice received gamma-ray irradiation while alive or following tumor clamping after being administered no drug, nimorazole, SR-2514 or misonidazole, or received no drug, nimorazole, SR-2514 or misonidazole straight after gamma-ray irradiation. For the group irradiated after receiving the drug, the tumors were excised immediately following irradiation, while for the group irradiated before receiving the drug, the tumors were excised 24 h after irradiation. The excised tumors were minced and trypsinized. The tumor cell suspensions thus obtained were incubated with cytochalasin-B (a cytokinesis blocker), and the micronucleus (MN) frequency in the cells without BrdU labelling (= quiescent (Q) cells) was determined using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. Meanwhile, the MN frequency in the total tumor cell population was determined from the tumors that had not been pretreated with BrdU. The clonogenic cell survival was also determined in the mice given no BrdU. Both the radio-sensitizing effects under aerobic and hypoxic conditions and the repair-inhibiting effects following gamma-ray irradiation increased in the following order: nimorazole < SR-2514 < misonidazole in both total and Q cells in these 3 tumors. Both effects were more marked in the Q cells and p53-mutated tumors than in the total cells and p53-wild tumors, respectively. In terms of controlling radio-resistant Q tumor cells and p53-mutated tumor cells, the combination of radio-sensitizers and conventional radiotherapy is promising both for radio-sensitization and for repair-inhibition, but further study of the toxicity to normal tissues is needed.

(要約) To evaluate the usefulness of 5 new 10B-compounds (TX-2091, TX-2095, TX-2097, TX-2100, and TX-2110) as 10B-carriers in boron neutron capture therpy (BNCT). They were conjugates that had been synthesized from a hypoxia-specific cytotoxic bioreductive agent, quinoxaline oxide TX-402, and a clinically used 10B-carrier, sodium borocaptate-10B (BSH). The 5 new compounds were hybrid compounds that have both a hypoxic cytotoxin unit and a thermal neutron-sensitizing unit, BSH. These new compounds and BSH were administered intraperitoneally to SCC VII tumor-bearing mice. Then, the 10B concentrations in the tumors and normal tissues were measured by gamma-ray spectrometry. Subsequently, SCC VII tumor-bearing mice were continuously given 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) to label all proliferating (P) cells in the tumors, then treated with TX-2100, which was chosen based on the results of the above-mentioned biodistribution analyses, or BSH in the same manner as in the biodistribution studies. Right after irradiation, during which intratumor 10B concentrations were kept at levels similar to each other, the tumors were excised, minced, and trypsinized. The tumor cell suspensions thus obtained were incubated with cytochalasin-B (a cytokinesis blocker), and the micronucleus (MN) frequency in cells without BrdU labeling [= quiescent (Q) cells] was determined using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. Meanwhile, the MN frequency in the total (P+Q) tumor cell population was determined from the tumors that were not pretreated with BrdU. Clonogenic cell survival was also determined in mice given no BrdU. 10B biodistribution analyses in tumors, brain, skin, muscles, blood, and liver indicated that TX-2100 has the most favorable characteristics for concentrating a sufficient amount of 10B in tumors and maintaining a high enough 10B concentration during irradiation. In addition, TX-2100 had a significantly stronger radio-sensitizing effect with reactor thermal neutron beams than BSH on both total and Q cells in solid tumors. Further, TX-2100 clearly exhibited a radio-sensitizing effect with gamma-rays not only on total cells but also on Q and hypoxic tumor cells, which was not achieved by BSH. A 10B-carrier that acts as a hypoxic cytotoxin on tumor cells as well as having the potential to keep 10B in tumors and sensitize tumor cells more markedly than conventional 10B-carriers, such as TX-2100, is a promising candidate for use in BNCT.

(要約) Human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells transfected with mutant TP53 (SAS/mp53) or with neo vector as a control (SAS/neo) were inoculated subcutaneously into both the hind legs of Balb/cA nude mice. Mice bearing the tumors received 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) continuously to label all proliferating (P) cells in the tumors. The mice then received a hypoxic cytotoxin, tirapazamine (TPZ) or TX-402, with or without a vascular targeting agent (VTA), ZD6126. Another group of mice given ZD6126 received a series of test doses of gamma-rays while alive or after tumor clamping to obtain hypoxic fractions (HFs) in the tumors. After each treatment, the tumor cells were isolated and incubated with a cytokinesis blocker (cytochalasin-B), and the micronucleus (MN) frequency in cells without BrdU labeling [quiescent (Q) cells] was determined using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. The MN frequency in total (P+Q) tumor cells was determined from the tumors that were not pretreated with BrdU. Both hypoxic cytotoxins showed significantly greater toxicity toward SAS/mp53 and Q than SAS/neo and total tumor cells, respectively. The sensitivity to TX-402 was significantly higher than that to TPZ in both total and Q tumor cells of both tumors. The significant enhancive effect by ZD6126 combined with each hypoxic cytotoxin was similar irrespective of p53 status, and slightly greater for total than Q cells probably because of a more marked increase in the size of the HFs in total than Q cells on the use of ZD6126 in both tumors, resulting in a reduction of the difference in the sensitivity to the hypoxic cytotoxin between total and Q cells. In the treatment of conventional cancer therapy-resistant Q tumor cells or p53-mutated tumor cells, the use of hypoxic cytotoxin was very promising either alone or when VTA was co-administered. TX-402 might be more promising than TPZ, although further study of the toxicity to normal tissue is needed.

Shin-ichiro Masunaga, Hideko Nagasawa, Yoshihiro Uto, Hitoshi Hori, Minoru Suzuki, Kenji Nagata, Yuko Kinashi and Koji Ono : The usefulness of continuous administration of hypoxic cytotoxin combined with mild temperature hyperthermia, with reference to effects on quiescent tumor cell populations., International Journal of Hyperthermia, Vol.21, No.4, 305-318, 2005. (要約) To evaluate the usefulness of continuous administration of hypoxic cytotoxins in terms of targeting acute hypoxia in solid tumours and the significance of combination with mild temperature hyperthermia (MTH) (40 degrees C, 60 min), the cytotoxic effects of singly or continuously administered tirapazamine (TPZ) and TX-402 were examined in combination with or without MTH in vivo. Further, the effects were also analysed on total (=proliferating (P)+quiescent (Q)) and Q cell populations in solid tumours with the method for selectively detecting the Q cell response. C3H/He mice bearing SCC VII tumours received a continuous administration of 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) for 5 days to label all P cells. The tumour-bearing mice then received a single intra-peritoneal injection or 24 h continuous subcutaneous infusion of hypoxic cytotoxin, TPZ or TX-402, with or without MTH. On the other hand, to detect the changes in the hypoxic fraction (HF) in the tumours by MTH, another group of mice with or without MTH received a series of test doses of gamma-rays while alive or after tumour clamping. After each treatment, the tumour cells were isolated and incubated with a cytokinesis blocker (=cytochalasin-B) and the micronucleus (MN) frequency in cells without BrdU labelling (=Q cells) was determined using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. The MN frequency in total tumour cells was determined from the tumours that were not pre-treated with BrdU. The sensitivity to TX-402 was slightly higher than that to TPZ in both total and Q tumour cells. Continuous administration elevated the sensitivity of both total and Q cells, especially total cells. MTH raised the sensitivity of Q cells more remarkably than that of total cells in both single and continuous administrations. It was thought to be probably because of the higher dose distribution of hypoxic cytotoxin in intermediately hypoxic areas derived mainly from chronic hypoxia through MTH. From the viewpoint of tumour control as a whole including both total and Q tumour cells, the continuous administration of hypoxic cytotoxin combined with MTH may be useful for sensitizing tumour cells in vivo.

(要約) We evaluated the potential of a newly developed (10)B-containing alpha-amino alcohol of p-boronophenylalanine-(10)B (BPA), p-boronophenylalaninol (BPAol), as a boron carrier in boron neutron capture therapy. C57BL mice bearing EL4 tumors received 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) continuously via implanted mini-osmotic pumps to label all proliferating (P) cells. After oral administration of L-BPA or D-BPA, or intraperitoneal injection of L-BPAol or D-BPAol, the tumors were irradiated with reactor thermal neutron beams. Some of the tumors were heated at 40 degrees C for 30 min (mild temperature hyperthermia (MTH)) right before neutron exposure, and/or tirapazamine (TPZ) was intraperitoneally injected 30 min before irradiation. The tumors were then excised, minced, and trypsinized. The tumor cell suspensions thus obtained were incubated with cytochalasin-B (a cytokinesis blocker), and the micronucleus (MN) frequency in cells without BrdU labeling [ =quiescent (Q) cells] was determined using immunofluorescence staining for BrdU. Meanwhile, 6 h after irradiation, tumor cell suspensions obtained in the same manner were used for determining the apoptosis frequency in Q cells. The apoptosis and MN frequency in total (P+Q) tumor cells were determined from the tumors that were not pretreated with BrdU. Without TPZ or MTH, L- and D-BPAol increased both frequencies markedly, especially for total cells. Although not significantly larger, L-BPA and D-BPAol increased both frequencies slightly more than D-BPA and L-BPAol, respectively. Combination with both MTH and TPZ markedly reduced the sensitivity difference between total and Q cells. Both L- and D-BPAol have potential as a (10)B-carrier in neutron capture therapy, especially when combined with both MTH and TPZ.

(要約) Naphthalene diimide derivative 1 carrying ferrocenyl moieties at the termini of imide substituents binds intact calf thymus DNA 4 times more strongly than the denatured DNA, and its complex with the intact DNA dissociates 80 times more slowly than that with the denatured DNA. On the basis of these observations, ligand 1 was applied to a probe of electrochemical DNA sensing. A thiol-linked single-stranded DNA probe was immobilized through the S-Au bonding to 20-30 pmol/mm2 on a gold electrode. Following hybridization with the complementary DNA, the electrode was soaked in a solution containing 1 (intercalation step) and then washed with buffer for 5 s. The cyclic voltammogram and differential pulse voltammogram for this electrode gave an electrochemical signal due to the redox reaction of 1 that was bound to the double-stranded DNA on the electrode. Thus, dA20 and the yeast choline transport gene were quantitated at the subpicomole level. The sensitivity of DNA detection was improved to 10 zmol by reducing the amount of immobilized DNA probe and protecting the uncovered surface of the electrode with 2-mercaptoethanol.

(要約) Phytyl quinols, namely acyclic tocopherols, are key intermediates of tocopherol biosynthesis,but their biological activities remain unclear. We therefore investigated the structure-activityrelationship of phytyl quinols to apply a chemical biosynthesis design for an antiatherosclerosisdrug based on isoprenomics. We have achieved the biosynthesis-oriented synthesis of α- andβ-phytyl quinol as an unnatural intermediate, other γ- and δ-phytyl quinol as a natural one. All fourphytyl quinols showed almost the same moderate inhibitory activity against low-density lipoproteinoxidation instead of their different degree of C-methylation with character different fromtocopherols. In vivo toxicities of phytyl quinols against chick embryo chorioallantoic membranevasculature were hardly observed. We proposed phytyl quinols were possible antioxidants in plantsand animals, like vitamin E.

(要約) In the present study, TONS504 (CHNOI; molecular weight, 1,116.9), a novel cationic hydrophilic photosensitizer, was synthesized from protoporphyrin IX dimethyl ester through a five-step process according to a patented method for use in photodynamic therapy (PDT). The subcellular localization of TONS504 and the cytotoxic effects of TONS504-mediated PDT in the mouse mammary tumor EMT6 cell line were investigated. TONS504 was localized primarily in the lysosomes and partially in the mitochondria. The cytotoxic effects of TONS504-mediated PDT in the mouse mammary tumor EMT6 cell line were investigated using a WST8 assay and an Oxidative Stress kit. The cell viability values following treatment with 10 µg/ml TONS504 at light energies of 0, 1, 5 and 10 J/cm were 92.5, 101.8, 27.7 and 1.8%, respectively. The percentages of reactive oxygen species (ROS)(+) cells following the same treatment were 8.6, 8.5, 29.2 and 70.1%, respectively, whereas the percentages of apoptotic cells were 7.1, 5.6, 24.8 and 48.7%, respectively. The percentages of ROS(+) and apoptotic cells in the group subjected to TONS504-mediated PDT increased in a manner dependent on the TONS504 concentration and light energy. Further studies are required to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution and photodynamic effects of TONS504.

Hideaki Takahashi, Quan Binh Cao Nguyen, Yoshihiro Uto, Md Shahinozzaman, Shinkichi Tawata and Hiroshi Maruta : 1,2,3-Triazolyl esterization of PAK1-blocking propolis ingredients, artepillin C (ARC) and caffeic acid (CA), for boosting their anti-cancer/anti-PAK1 activities along with cell-permeability., Drug Discoveries & Therapeutics, Vol.11, No.2, 104-109, 2017. (要約) Artepillin C (ARC) and caffeic acid (CA) are among the major anti-cancer ingredients of propolis, and block the oncogenic/melanogenic/ageing kinase PAK1. However, mainly due to their COOH moiety, cell-permeability of these herbal compounds is rather limited. Thus, in this study, in an attempt to increase their cell-permeability without any significant loss of their water-solubility, we have esterized both ARC and CA with the water-soluble 1,2,3-triazolyl alcohol through Click Chemistry. We found that this esterization boosts the anti-cancer activity of ARC and CA by 100 and over 400 folds, respectively, against the PAK-dependent growth of A549 lung cells, but show no effect on the PAK1-independent growth of B16F10 melanoma cells. Confirming this "selective" toxicity, these esters are still capable of blocking the kinase PAK1 strongly in cell culture (with IC around 5 µM), and the anti-PAK1 activity of 15A (ARC ester) and 15C (CA ester) appears to be 30-fold and 140-fold higher than ARC and CA, respectively. The 15A and 15C are 8-fold and 70-fold more cell-permeable (through the multi-drug resistant cell line EMT6) than ARC and CA, respectively. These data altogether suggest that both 15A and 15C would be far more useful than propolis for the treatment of a wide variety of PAK1-dependent diseases/disorders such as cancers, Alzheimer's diseases (AD), hypertension, diabetes (type 2), and hyper-pigmentation.

(要約) Embryonic chick assay was introduced as a biological method for an experiment to apply a nanosecond pulse electric field on a tumor. Embryonic chick assay allowed many in vivo tests. Pulsed electric fields were applied on a solid tumor of the mouse breast adenocarcinoma cell, EMT6/KU, which was formed on the chorioallantoic membrane. We found that average weight of solid tumors applied pulsed electric fields was significantly smaller than that of controls.

(要約) We report the synthesis and properties of two new seminaphthorhodafluor (SNARF) derivatives, SNARF-F and SNARF-Cl. Both these derivatives exhibit typical red shifts of absorption and fluorescence, and higher cell permeability as compared to traditional SNARF, while the pH-dependent dual-emission characteristics are well retained. In particular, the lower pK(a) (7.38) of SNARF-F makes it more suitable than traditional SNARF derivatives for intracellular applications.

(要約) Propolis, a resinous substance collected by honeybees from various plant sources, possesses various physiological activities such as antitumor effects. We have previously shown that propolis of Brazilian origin was composed mainly of artepillin C and that its constituents were quite different from those of propolis of European origin. In this report, we examined an antiangiogenic effects of Brazilian propolis and investigated whether artepillin C was responsible for such effects. In an in vivo angiogenesis assay using ICR mice, we found that the ethanol extract of Brazilian propolis (EEBP) significantly reduced the number of newly formed vessels. EEBP also showed antiangiogenic effects in an in vitro tube formation assay. When compared with other constituents of EEBP, only artepillin C was found to significantly inhibit the tube formation of HUVECs in a concentration-dependent manner (3.13-50microg/ml). In addition, artepillin C significantly suppressed the proliferation of HUVECs in a concentration-dependent manner (3.13-50microg/ml). Furthermore, artepillin C significantly reduced the number of newly formed vessels in an in vivo angiogenesis assay. Judging from its antiangiogenic activity in vitro and in vivo, we concluded that artepillin C at least in part is responsible for the antiangiogenic activity of EEBP in vivo. Artepillin C may prove useful in the development of agents and foods with therapeutic or preventive activity against tumor angiogenesis.

(要約) We describe herein for the first time our medicinal electronomics bricolage design of hypoxia-targeting antineoplastic drugs and boron tracedrugs as newly emerging drug classes. A new area of antineoplastic drugs and treatments has recently focused on neoplastic cells of the tumor environment/microenvironment involving accessory cells. This tumor hypoxic environment is now considered as a major factor that influences not only the response to antineoplastic therapies but also the potential for malignant progression and metastasis. We review our medicinal electronomics bricolage design of hypoxia-targeting drugs, antiangiogenic hypoxic cell radiosensitizers, sugar-hybrid hypoxic cell radiosensitizers, and hypoxia-targeting 10B delivery agents, in which we design drug candidates based on their electronic structures obtained by molecular orbital calculations, not based solely on pharmacophore development. These drugs include an antiangiogenic hypoxic cell radiosensitizer TX-2036, a sugar-hybrid hypoxic cell radiosensitizer TX-2244, new hypoxia-targeting indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) inhibitors, and a hypoxia-targeting BNCT agent, BSH (sodium borocaptate-10B)-hypoxic cytotoxin tirapazamine (TPZ) hybrid drug TX-2100. We then discuss the concept of boron tracedrugs as a new drug class having broad potential in many areas.

Kirk and Hitoshi Hori : Design of Hypoxia-Targeting Drugs as New Cancer Chemotherapeutics, Biological & Pharmaceutical Bulletin, Vol.29, No.12, 2335-2342, Dec. 2006. (要約) The tumor microenvironment is now recognized as a major factor that influences not only the response to conventional anti-cancer therapies but also helps define the potential for malignant progression and metastasis. In particular, hypoxia is now considered a fundamentally important characteristic of the tumor microenvironment. Furthermore, discovery of the hypoxia inducible factor 1alpha (HIF-1alpha) has led to a rapidly increasing understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in tumor hypoxia. This in turn has led to the current extensive interest in the signal molecules related to tumor hypoxia as potential molecular targets for cancer therapeutics. In this paper we give an overview of recent advances in hypoxia research, including cancer treatments that target tumor hypoxia. Progress in the development of hypoxia-targeting drugs will be discussed, including antiangiogenic hypoxic cell radiosensitizers and hypoxic cytotoxins, hypoxia targeting boron carriers and p53-inhibiting bifunctional radiosensitizers. We will also review our own recent research results in these areas. For example, we have found that certain of the 2-nitroimidazole radiosensitizers and heterocycle-N-oxide hypoxic cytotoxins we developed have antiangiogenic activity and antimetastatic activity. We propose that these activities are based on the inhibition of signal transduction mediated by HIF-1alpha. The anti-tumor activities of hypoxia response are considered to be cytostatic (tumor dormancy-inducing) effects in contrast to cytotoxic DNA damaging effects. The combination of these cytostatic effects that are related to radiosensitization with the cytotoxic effects of radiation should improve the prognosis and QOL of patients receiving radiation and lead to an overall response to treatment. Based on these considerations, we developed the antiangiogenic hypoxic cell radiosensitizers, TX-1877, TX-1898 and the hypoxic cytotoxin TX-402 that inhibits the HIF-1alpha pathway We will also discuss our research involved with the development of other drugs to exploit tumor hypoxia, including a hypoxia-targeting boron carrier for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) and a p53 inhibiting radiosensitizer.

(要約) Bioelectrics has become a notable field of pulsed power application at the present day. Cancer therapy using apoptosis with nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs) has been studied in laboratories. We introduced embryonic chick assay to study in vivo. The embryonic chick assay has several advantages and is categorized as in vivo experiment. Many samples can be prepared with low cost by the assay. This study adopted EMT6/KU (mouse breast adenocarcinoma cells) as tumor cells, which formed a solid tumor on the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) of a fertilized hen egg in the assay. Nanosecond pulsed electric fields with width of 1.5 ns were applied on the solid tumor on CAM with needle electrodes. Stainless wires of 1 mm in diameter were used as the needle electrodes. The two or four needle electrodes were used in this experiment. The solid tumor was dissected and extracted from the egg on a three days after application of nsPEF and was then weighed. The controls of tumor sample were also prepared without nsPEF application. Significance test on the weight of tumors was adopted to determine the effect of nsPEFs application. The difference of weight between the tumor with nsPEF application and control was significantly confirmed. The difference enlarged with the charging voltage of pulsed power generator.

(要約) Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) catalyzes the initial and rate limiting step of L-Tryptophan (L-Trp) catabolism in the kynurenine pathway. IDO expresses in many neoplasms, and play a role in immunosuppression. IDO is activated only reductive or hypoxic conditions, because the heme iron of active site is easily oxidized to its inactive form. Hypoxic neoplastic cells indicate chemo- and radioresistances and also cause neoplasm' progression, invasion and metastasis. Previously we focused to the mode of activation of IDO only in hypoxic and reductive condition to design hypoxia-targeting IDO hybrid inhibitors, which constituted an IDO inhibitor 1-methyl-tryptophan (1MT) and hypoxic cytotoxin tirapazamine (TPZ), such as TX-2236, TX-2235, TX-2228 and TX-2234. They were good hypoxia-targeting IDO inhibitors. 1MT-TPZ hybrids inhibited IDO uncompetitively. Thus, it suggests that 1MT-TPZ hybrids were able to bind the only enzyme-substrate complex, not to bind the active site. In this study, we present here the novel design and syntheses of hypoxia-targeting IDO hybrid inhibitors conjugated with an unsubstituted L-Trp as an IDO affinity moiety without inhibitor 1MT such as L-Trp-TPZ hybrids 1 (n = 4, monoxide), 2 (n = 4, dioxide), 3 (n = 5, monoxide), and 4 (n = 5, dioxide). These L-Trp-TPZ hybrids were synthesized from 3-chlorinated TPZ monoxide with various length alkyldiamines to give the corresponding amine derivatives, which were conjugated with Boc-L-Trp to give the L-Trp-TPZ monoxide hybrids 1 and 3. L-Trp-TPZ dioxide hybrids 2 and 4 were also synthesized from the corresponding TPZ-dioxide trifluoroacetamide intermediates. L-Trp-TPZ hybrids were good competitive inhibitors of IDO. Thus, it suggests that these L-Trp-TPZ hybrids were able to bind the active site. In conclusion, we discovered IDO hybrid inhibitors conjugated with an unsubstituted L-Trp as an IDO affinity moiety. Additionally we are under evaluation of their hypoxic cytotoxicity to develop hypoxia-targeting IDO hybrid inhibitors as our final goal.

(要約) The blood vessel is one of the most important organs in the oxygen transport, and the drug discovery research of clinical-use antioxidants, which may control various vascular disorders caused by the oxidative stress, is extremely important. In fact, the in vitro evaluation system of antioxidants being mainly used now, however, has a problem of no appreciable in vivo redox status of the antioxidants. We, therefore, tried the development of an in vivo model for the evaluation of antioxidants for their vascular protective activities using the chick embryo having many advantages, such as handy, quick, cheap, and possible high-throughput screening. The topical administration (doses from 150 to 350 g) of 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride (AAPH), a water-soluble prooxidant, to the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) of 6-days chick embryos, resulted in their vascular injuries of percentage from 25 to 100% dose dependently, which were correlated with their increased fatal rate of the percentage from 29 to 86%. Artepillin C, a potent natural antioxidant, showed a weak vascular injury (26% at 10 g). These results suggest that immature developing CAM vasculature might have low tolerance to oxidative injury. In the case of 12-days chick embryos, AAPH (doses from 0.3 to 7 mg) induced their vascular injuries (20 to 80%) against the CAM veins and venous capillaries without their fatal damage. Artepillin C, with its dose of up to 30 g, did not show the chick embryo's venous injury, and pre-treatment with artepillin C dose-dependently protected the CAM venous and venous capillary injuries induced by the post-administration of 3 mg of AAPH: 1 g artepillin C decreased 60% of venous injury. These results suggest that artepillin C efficiently protected the AAPH-induced vascular injury of chick embryonic CAM. In conclusion, artepillin C might be a promising clinical-use antioxidant for prevention of vascular disease.

(要約) Tocopherols constitute members of the vitamin E group and act as a potent lipid peroxidation inhibitor against for cell membrane such as blood vessels. Phytyl quinols, namely acyclic tocopherols, are key intermediate of tocopherol biosynthesis, but their biological activities remain unclear. We therefore investigated the structure-activity relationship of phytyl quinols to apply chemical biosynthesis design for an antiatherosclerosis drug. We have achieved the biosynthesis-oriented design and synthesis of alpha- (TX-2254) and beta- (TX-2247) phytyl quinol as an unnatural intermediate, other gamma- (TX-2242) and delta- (TX-2231) phytyl quinol as a natural one. Free radical reactivity was determined by using DPPH radical. Inhibitory activity of human low density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation was measured by TBARS assay. Free radical reactivity of TX-2242 (EC50 = 24.6 microM) and TX-2231 (24.2 microM) were equal with DL-alpha-tocopherol (22.3 microM), whereas TX-2254 (38.0 microM) and TX-2247 (30.2 microM) showed lower reactivity than DL-alpha-tocopherol. TX-2242 (IC50 = 61 microM) and TX-2231 (69 microM) also showed almost same LDL antioxidant activity as DL-alpha-tocopherol (64 microM), while TX-2254 (149 microM) and TX-2247 (254 microM) showed lower antioxidant activity than DL-alpha-tocopherol. We suggested from these results that the cyclization of phytyl quinol to tocopherol is not indispensable for the appearance of the potent antioxidant activity. We also have found an interesting negative correlation between methylation and antioxidant activity of phytyl quinols. We will present ex vivo antioxidant activity for blood vessels in the chick embryo chorioallantoic membranes (CAM) as an alternative in vivo model.

(要約) Purpose: The presence of hypoxic tumor cells is also associated with resistance to boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). To accomplish the effective boron carrier for BNCT, we have recently developed 2-nitroimidazole-sodium borocaptate-10B (BSH) conjugates, TX-2016, 2017, 2018, 2041, 2042, and 2060, that is, hybrids that have both hypoxic tumor cell g-ray-sensitizing unit, 2-nitroimidazoles, and thermal neutron-sensitizing unit, BSH [1]. Furthermore, In this communication, to improve the hypoxia-targating character, we report the design, synthesis, and pharmacokinetics of hypoxic cytotoxin-hybrid boron carriers, TX-2091, 2095, 2097, 2100, 2124 and 2125, having hypoxic cytotoxin moiety, such as 2-quinoxalinecarbonitrile-1,4-di-N-oxide (TX-402) and tirapazamine (TPZ), and BSH via some carbon chain linker as a pharmacokinetic controlling unit. Result: TX-2016, 2017, and 2018: tertamethylammonium salts of alkyl sulfides of BSH. TX-2041, 2042 and 2060: sodium salts of an alkyl sulfide or a dialkyl sulfonium derivatives of BSH. They were synthesized from their corresponding haloacetylcarbamoyl-2-nitroimidazoles[2] and BSH. To synthesize hypoxic cytotoxin conjugate, 3-clorinated hypoxic cytotoxin (TX-402 or TPZ) was condensed with ethyl-, propyl-, or hexyl-alcoholamine to obtain the corresponding hydroxyalkylamino derivatives. They were treated with bromoacetyl isocyanate followed by disodium (2-cyanoethyl)-thio-undecahydro-closo-dodecaborate(2-) to yield cyanoethyl sulfonium compounds, TX-2095, 2100, 2110, 2124, and 2125. Among the 2-nitroimidazole conjugates, TX-2041 has the most favorable pharmacokinetic characteristics with higher tumor affinity of 10B during neutron beam irradiation. In addition, TX-2041 showed a significantly higher radiosensitizating effect with reactor thermal neutron beams than that of BSH. Cyanoethyl sulufonium derivative, TX-2060 showed better tumor affinity of 10B and more cytotoxicity after irradiation with reactor thermal neutron beams than that of TX-2041. Furthermore, TX-2100 achieved significantly higher tumor affinity than 2-nitoroimidazoles, TX-2041 and 2060, and also showed cytotoxicity comparable to TX-2060. In conclusion, these hypoxic tumor trageting cytotoxin-hybrid 10B-carriers , such as TX-2100, with the potential tumor affinty of10B, are expected to have clinical applications as promising boron carriers for use in BNCT.

Kuntz : Synthesis of new GMII mannosidase inhibitors, diversity-oriented 5-substituted swainsonine analogues, via stereoselective Mannich reaction, 230th American Chemical Society Meeting & Exposition, Washington, D.C., Aug. 2005. (要約) A potent Golgi a-mannosidase (GMII) inhibitor, (-)-swainsonine, exhibits pleiotropic effects such as anticancer activities including metastasis and immunomodulatory effects. To develop more potent immunomodulatory anticancer agents and gain insight on the molecular bases of these activities, we synthesized 5-substituted swainsonine analogues stereoselectivity using our developed diversity-oriented modification reaction (ref.1). We have developed amine acetal (1) as a versatile intermediate for the preparation of 5a-(3) and 5b-acyl (4). Swainsonine analogues were synthesized by stereoselective Mannich reaction of an in situ generated (-)-swainsonine iminium ion intermediate (2) followed by their epimerization reaction. Their carbonyl groups were reduced by Pd-catalyzed hydrogenation to afford 5a-(5a) and 5b-alkyl analogues(5b). Some of these new 5a-substituted swainsonine analogues possessing aromatic group showed more potent a-mannosidase inhibitory activities than swainsonine itself. To gain insight on the molecular bases of these activities, we also analyzed the crystal structures of Dorosophila GMII in complex with some of these swainsonine analogues.

(要約) 微生物，植物や動物が産生するテルペン，ステロイドやカロテンなどのイソプレノイド系化合物は，メバロン酸もしくは非メバロン酸経路により合成される炭素5個(C5)を基本単位とするイソプレン骨格を有する化合物の総称であり生理活性物質として重要なものが数多く同定されている．一方，フェニルプロパノイドやフラボノイドにおいては，シキミ酸経路による骨格合成後位置選択的にイソプレン鎖の修飾を受けた化合物の存在が報告されているが，それらの生理活性や存在理由についてはほとんど明らかになっていない．そこで私は，イソプレノミクス(isoprenomics，微生物，植物や動物が産生するイソプレン鎖修飾化合物を探索して生物活性を調べ，合成に関わるDNAやタンパクを同定してchemotypeを明らかにし，医薬品開発に応用する研究)を提唱し，この問題の解明に取り組んでいる．本シンポジウムでは，アルテピリンC及びトコフェロール(ビタミンE)に対するイソプレノミクスから得られた抗酸化剤分子設計に関する知見について報告する．

(要約) 天然抗酸化物質のラジカル消去反応に対する構造活性相関を明らかにするため，種々の4-プロペニルフェノール誘導体やビタミンEモデルのラジカル消去活性について速度論的に検討した．その結果，カフェイン酸は(+)-カテキンと同程度の2次反応速度定数k2値を示し，カフェイン酸のエステル体は2倍の値を示した．また，アルテピリンCのアルコール体はアルテピリンCと比較して約20倍のラジカル消去活性を示した．さらに，ビタミンEモデルであるPMCは極めて高い消去活性を示した．
238.	村上綾, 中江崇, 宇都義浩, 永澤秀子, 堀均 : N-アセチルガラクトサミン基を有する低酸素細胞放射線増感剤TX-2068およびアナログによるマクロファージの活性化能について, 第9回バイオ治療法研究会学術集会, 2005年12月. (要約) ヒト固形腫瘍中に存在する低酸素がん細胞は一般的な癌治療法である放射線や抗がん剤に対する感受性が低く，血管新生や湿潤·転移などがん細胞特性に深く関わっていることが明らかになってきている．マクロファージはがん細胞，低酸素領域に顕著に集積することが知られている．このような現象に注目して，低酸素指向性マクロファージを薬剤キャリアーとして利用する目的で低酸素細胞放射線増感剤TX-1877とマクロファージ結合能をもつN-アセチルガラクトサミンを1-β型で結合させたTX-2068を分子設計した．すでにEMT6/KU細胞に対する低酸素細胞放射線増感実験の結果から，TX-2068のERはTX-1877(ER=1.75, 1 mM)より高い増感活性を有することが分かっている．(ER=1.88, 1 mM)しかし，TX-2068 のマクロファージ活性化能および認識能については不明である．そこで我々はまずTX-2068のマクロファージ活性化能について検討した．また，糖鎖部位をグルコサミンに変えたアナログ(TX-2068(Glu)と記す)についても同様の検討を行い，糖鎖とマクロファージ活性化能との相関についても検討した． TX-2068の貪食活性試験の結果，1 mMまで濃度依存的に活性が増加し，5 mMで抑制が見られた．この挙動は免疫反応で一般的に見られるベルシャープ型の活性であり，TX-2068がマクロファージを活性化することを示唆している．次にMTT Assayから，TX-2068はマクロファージに対し5 mMまで細胞毒性を示さないことがわかった．以上の結果より，TX-2068は細胞毒性を示すことなくマクロファージを活性化することが明らかになった．
239.	岡村菜摘子, 永澤秀子, 宇都義浩, 滝口公康, 堀均 : ヒト血清Gc proteinサブタイプの糖鎖構造解析, 第9回バイオ治療法研究会学術集会, 2005年12月. (要約) Gc protein(ビタミンD結合タンパク質)はヒト染色体4q11‐q13に位置しており，分子量約52kDaのタンパク質である．3つの対立遺伝子Gc1F，Gc1S，Gc2によりGc1F‐1F，Gc1S‐1S，Gc2‐2の3つのホモタイプとGc1F‐1S，Gc2‐1F，Gc2‐1Sの3つのヘテロタイプがあることが知られており，これらは異なる糖鎖を有すると推定されている． Gc proteinは，糖鎖修飾を受けることでマクロファージ活性化作用を発揮し，その糖鎖構造はマクロファージ活性化能に関与することが報告されている．我々はβ-galactosidaseとsialidaseで処理したGc1F-1F由来GcMAFが有意にマクロファージ貪食能を亢進し，Gc1S-1S，Gc2-2にはそれが見られなかったことを既に報告した(H.Nagasawa, H.Sasaki, Y.Uto, S.Kubo and H.Hori 2004 Anticancer Res.,24:3361‐3366)．そこでこれらのGc proteinホモタイプの糖鎖構造を解析し，マクロファージ活性化作用との相関について検討した． Gc1F-1F，Gc1S-1S，Gc2-2をβ-galactosidaseとsialidaseとで混合処理し，エスカルゴ(helix pomatia)lectinによるlectin blotを行った結果，いずれもGalNAc残基を持つことが示唆された．一方，Gc1F-1F，Gc1S-1S をsialidaseによって処理し，ピーナッツ(Arachis hypogaea)lectinを用いてlectin blotを行ったところ，Gc1F-1F，Gc1S-1SにGal-GalNAc残基があることが明らかになった．これにより，Gc1S-1Sの糖鎖にシアル酸が存在することを示唆する興味深い結果が得られた．

(要約) 我々は，ブラジル産プロポリスの主成分で強い抗酸化活性を有するアルテピリンCのイソプレノミクス(イソプレン骨格やイソプレニル基を有する分子の創薬研究)より得られた知見から，LDL抗酸化活性と抗酸化剤の疎水性(脂溶性)は単純な比例関係ではなく，抗酸化剤の立体的構造，特に直線的構造が重要であることを示唆している．今回，抗酸化剤とラジカルとの反応性，すなわち電子的効果に関してイソプレノミクスによる分子設計を行い，それら分子のラジカル反応性及びLDL抗酸化活性について検討した．アルテピリンCがもつ2つのプレニル基の内1つをメチル基に置換したmethyl-TX-1959(仮名)は，TX-1959と比較してもほとんど電子状態は変わらなかったが，ラジカルとの反応によって生じるフェノキシラジカル体ではメチル基の存在がその後の副反応を抑制することが示唆された．合成に関しては，4-Iodo-2-methylphenolを出発原料としてオルト位選択的モノプレニル化反応を行い，得られた生成物をアセチル化，次いで溝呂木-Heck反応によりα，β-不飽和エステルを導入後，脱保護して目的物であるmethyl-TX-1959，methyl-TX-2012，methyl-TX-2101(仮名)を得た．
