1.	Michiyasu Nakao, Akihito Nakamura, Shoki Yamada, Syuji Kitaike and Shigeki Sano : Concentration-dependence of specific rotation of optically active glycerol analogues and structurally related compounds: The significance of intermolecular hydrogen bonding, Results in Chemistry, Vol.7, 101415, 2024. (Summary) Specific rotation of optically active glycerol analogues, (S)-3-(benzyloxy)propane-1,2-diol [(S)-1], (S)-3-methoxypropane-1,2-diol [(S)-6] and (S)-3-phenoxypropane-1,2-diol [(S)-13], changed its sign from (+) to () with increasing concentration in CHCl3, whereas no significant concentration-dependent change was observed in MeOH. The 1H NMR spectrum of (S)-1 showed concentration-dependent changes of the chemical shift in CDCl3. Intermolecular interaction by OHOH hydrogen bonds was suggested by single crystal X-ray crystallography of (S)-13. The concentration-dependent changes of specific rotation of (S)-1, (S)-6, and (S)-13 in CHCl3 can therefore be presumed to be due to self-assembly of these compounds via intermolecular hydrogen bonding at high concentration. The remarkable concentration-dependent changes in specific rotation were also observed to occur in the compounds with related chemical structures, such as (S)-3-hydroxy-4-methoxy-4-oxobutanoic acid [(S)-10], (S)-1-[(2-methylpropan-2-yl)oxycarbonyl]pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid [Boc-L-Pro-OH, (S)-14], (R)-3-hydroxy-4,4-dimethylhydrofran-2(3H)-one [(R)-15], (R)-tetrahydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid [(R)-16], (S)-3-methyl-2-[(2-methylpropan-2-yl)oxycarbonylamino]butanoic acid [Boc-L-Val-OH, (S)-17], (R)-oxiran-2-ylmethanol [(R)-18], and (4S)-4-isopropyloxazolidin-2-one [(S)-19]. The existence of intermolecular interaction by C=OHO hydrogen bonds was suggested by single crystal X-ray crystallography of (S)-10, (S)-13, and (S)-14. Thus, this series of chiral compounds have multiple functional groups in appropriate positions that serve as hydrogen-bond donors and/or acceptors, resulting in significant concentration-dependent changes of specific rotation.

(Summary) Multiple myeloma (MM) preferentially expands and acquires drug resistance in the bone marrow (BM). We herein examined the role of histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) in the constitutive activation of the master transcription factor IRF4 and the prosurvival mediator PIM2 kinase in MM cells. The knockdown or inhibition of HDAC1 by the class I HDAC inhibitor MS-275 reduced the basal expression of IRF4 and PIM2 in MM cells. Mechanistically, the inhibition of HDAC1 decreased IRF4 transcription through histone hyperacetylation and inhibiting the recruitment of RNA polymerase II at the IRF4 locus, thereby reducing IRF4-targeting genes, including PIM2. In addition to the transcriptional regulation of PIM2 by the HDAC1-IRF4 axis, PIM2 was markedly upregulated by external stimuli from BM stromal cells and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Upregulated PIM2 contributed to the attenuation of the cytotoxic effects of MS-275. Class I HDAC and PIM kinase inhibitors cooperatively suppressed MM cell growth in the presence of IL-6 and in vivo. Therefore, the present results demonstrate the potential of the simultaneous targeting of the intrinsic HDAC1-IRF4 axis plus externally activated PIM2 as an efficient therapeutic option for MM fostered in the BM.

Ray Nath Manobendro, Mizune Ohzono, Michiyasu Nakao, Shigeki Sano and Kentaro Kogure : Only one carbon difference determines the pro-apoptotic activity of α-tocopheryl esters, The FEBS Journal, Vol.290, 1027-1048, 2023. (Summary) α-Tocopheryl succinate (TS), a redox-silent succinyl ester of natural α-Tocopherol, has emerged as a novel anti-cancer agent. However, the underlying mechanism is unclear. We found that the terminal dicarboxylic moiety of tocopheryl esters contributes to apoptosis induction and thus cytotoxicity. To further examine this relationship, we compared the pro-apoptotic activity of TS, which has four carbon atoms in the terminal dicarboxylic moiety, to that of a newly synthesized, tocopheryl glutarate (Tglu), which has five. Cytotoxicity assays in vitro confirmed that TS stimulated apoptosis, while Tglu was non-cytotoxic. In investigating biological mechanisms leading to these opposing effects, we found that TS caused an elevation of intracellular superoxide, but Tglu did not. TS increased intracellular Ca in cultured cells, suggesting induction of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress; however, Tglu did not affect Ca homeostasis. 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP ) receptor antagonist 2-Aminoethyl diphenylborinate (2-APB) decreased TS-induced intracellular Ca , restored mitochondrial activity and cell viability in TS-treated cells, establishing the ER-mitochondria relationship in apoptosis induction. Moreover, real-time PCR, immunostaining and Western blotting assays revealed that TS downregulated glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), which maintains ER homeostasis and promotes cell survival. Conversely, Tglu upregulates GRP78. Taken together, our results suggest a model in which TS-mediated superoxide production and GRP78 inhibition induce ER stress, which elevates intracellular Ca and depolarizes mitochondria, leading to apoptosis. Because Tglu does not affect superoxide generation and increases GRP78 expression, it inhibits ER stress and is thereby non-cytotoxic. Our research provides insight into the structure-activity relationship of tocopheryl esters regarding the induction of apoptosis.

(Summary) X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) is a genetic disorder associated with peroxisomal dysfunction. Patients with this rare disease accumulate very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) in their bodies because of impairment of peroxisomal VLCFA ?-oxidation. Several clinical types of X-ALD, ranging from mild (axonopathy in the spinal cord) to severe (cerebral demyelination), are known. However, the molecular basis for this phenotypic variability remains largely unknown. In this study, we determined plasma ceramide (CER) profile using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. We characterized the molecular species profile of CER in the plasma of patients with mild (adrenomyeloneuropathy;AMN) and severe (cerebral) X-ALD. Eleven X-ALD patients (five cerebral, five AMN, and one carrier) and 10 healthy volunteers participated in this study. Elevation of C26:0 CER was found to be a common feature regardless of the clinical types. The level of C26:1 CER was significantly higher in AMN but not in cerebral type, than that in healthy controls. The C26:1 CER level in the cerebral type was significantly lower than that in the AMN type. These results suggest that a high level of C26:0 CER, along with a control level of C26:1 CER, is a characteristic feature of the cerebral type X-ALD. J. Med. Invest. 70 : 403-410, August, 2023.

(Summary) It is difficult to differentiate gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) from other subepithelial lesions under gastrointestinal endoscopy. Because most GISTs express tyrosine kinase receptor c-KIT, fluorescence-labeled c-KIT-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors seem to be useful agents for molecular imaging of GIST. We aimed to develop a near-infrared fluorescent imaging technology for GIST targeting c-KIT using the novel fluorescent probe indocyanine green-labeled dasatinib (ICG-dasatinib) and to investigate the antitumor effect of ICG-dasatinib on GIST cells. Indocyanine green-labeled dasatinib was synthesized by labeling linker-induced dasatinib with ICG derivative 3-indocyanine-green-acyl-1,3-thiazolidine-2-thione. Human GIST cell lines GIST-T1 and GIST-882M were incubated with ICG-dasatinib and observed by fluorescent microscopy. GIST cells were incubated with ICG-dasatinib, unlabeled dasatinib, or imatinib, and cell viabilities were evaluated. Subcutaneous GIST model mice or orthotopic GIST model rats were intravenously injected with ICG-dasatinib and observed using an IVIS Spectrum. Strong fluorescent signals of ICG-dasatinib were observed in both GIST cell lines in vitro. IC50 values for ICG-dasatinib, unlabeled dasatinib, and imatinib were 13.9, 1.17, and 16.2 nM in GIST-T1 and 26.6, 3.63, and 47.6 nM in GIST-882M cells, respectively. ICG-dasatinib accumulated in subcutaneous xenografts in mice. Fluorescent signals were also observed in liver and gallbladder, indicating biliary excretion; however, fluorescence intensity of tumors was significantly higher than that of intestine after washing. Strong fluorescent signals were observed in orthotopic xenografts through the covering normal mucosa in rats. Indocyanine green-labeled dasatinib could visualize GIST cells and xenografted tumors. The antitumor effect of ICG-dasatinib was preserved to the same degree as imatinib.

(Summary) Details of the synthesis of three stereoisomers of erythrochelin, a hydroxamate-type tetrapeptide siderophore produced by Saccharopolyspora erythraea, were described. Both enantiomers of protected δ-N-hydroxyornithine were used as key intermediates in the synthesis of stereoisomers of erythrochelin containing a (3S,6S)-3,6-disubstituted-2,5-diketopiperazine ring. From comparisons of 1H and 13C NMR spectra, neither of stereoisomers provided a match for the erythrochelin spectral data, and the absolute configuration of erythrochelin was unambiguously reconfirmed to be (R,R,S,S).

(Summary) Proviral Integrations of Moloney virus 2 (PIM2) is overexpressed in multiple myeloma (MM) cells, and regarded as an important therapeutic target. Here, we aimed to validate the therapeutic efficacy of different types of PIM inhibitors against MM cells for their possible clinical application. Intriguingly, the thiazolidine-2,4-dione-family compounds SMI-16a and SMI-4a reduced PIM2 protein levels and impaired MM cell survival preferentially in acidic conditions, in contrast to other types of PIM inhibitors, including AZD1208, CX-6258 and PIM447. SMI-16a also suppressed the drug efflux function of breast cancer resistance protein, minimized the sizes of side populations and reduced in vitro colony-forming capacity and in vivo tumourigenic activity in MM cells, suggesting impairment of their clonogenic capacity. PIM2 is known to be subject to ubiquitination-independent proteasomal degradation. Consistent with this, the proteasome inhibitors bortezomib and carfilzomib increased PIM2 protein levels in MM cells without affecting its mRNA levels. However, SMI-16a mitigated the PIM2 protein increase and cooperatively enhanced anti-MM effects in combination with carfilzomib. Collectively, the thiazolidine-2,4-dione-family compounds SMI-16a and SMI-4a uniquely reduce PIM2 protein in MM cells, which may contribute to their profound efficacy in addition to their immediate kinase inhibition. Their combination with proteasome inhibitors is envisioned.

(Summary) Halitosis is caused by volatile sulphur compounds including methyl mercaptan (CH3 SH) in the oral cavity and is a serious problem that limits interpersonal social communication. The aim of study was to evaluate the effects of reuterin-related compounds (RRCs) on halitosis-related periodontopathic bacteria in vitro. RRC-01, RRC-02 and RRC-03 (32 and 64 g ml(-1) ) in culture media containing Fusobacterium nucleatum JCM8523 and Porphyromonas gingivalis ATCC33277 were used. The effects of RRCs on CH3 SH production and detectable odour by F. nucleatum and P. gingivalis were examined by CH3 SH production assay and organoleptic test, respectively. The number of bacterial cells was also measured using an ATP assay. In P. gingivalis treated with RRCs, the expression of mgl gene, which is responsible for CH3 SH production, was examined by qRT-PCR. CH3 SH production and the score of detectable odour from F. nucleatum and P. gingivalis culture media containing RRCs were significantly lower than that without RRCs (P < 0.05). The expression of mgl gene in P. gingivalis was significantly downregulated by RRC-01 (P < 0.01), but not by RRC-02 or RRC-03. RRCs are potent oral care products for preventing halitosis via reducing CH3 SH production.

(Summary) Ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) is a potential signaling molecule that modulates various cellular functions in animals. It has been known that C1P with different N-acyl lengths induce biological responses differently. However, molecular species profiles of the C1P in animal tissues have not been extensively examined yet. Here, we developed a method for determination of the molecular species of a C1P using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry with Phos-tag, a phosphate capture molecule. The amounts of total C1P in skin, brain, liver, kidney and small intestine of mice were determined to be 344, 151, 198, 96 and 90 pmol/g wet weight, respectively. We found a C1P species having an α-hydroxypalmitoyl residue (h-C1P, 44 pmol/g wet weight) in mouse skin. The h-C1P was detected only in the skin, and not other tissues of mice. The same analysis was applied to sphingomyelin after conversion of sphingomyelin to C1P by Streptomyces chromofuscus phospholipase D. We found that molecular species profiles of sphingomyelin in skin, kidney and small intestine of mice were similar to those of C1P in corresponding tissues. In contrast, molecular species profiles of sphingomyelin in liver and brain were quite different from those of C1P in these tissues, indicating selective synthesis or degradation of C1P in these tissues. The method described here will be useful for detection of changes in molecular species profiles of C1P and sphingomyelin.

(Summary) Pim-2 kinase is overexpressed in multiple myeloma (MM) cells to enhance their growth and survival, and regarded as a novel therapeutic target in MM. However, the impact of Pim-2 inhibition on bone disease in MM remains unknown. We demonstrated here that Pim-2 expression was also upregulated in bone marrow stromal cells and MC3T3-E1 preosteoblastic cells in the presence of cytokines known as the inhibitors of osteoblastogenesis in MM, including interleukin-3 (IL-3), IL-7, tumor necrosis factor-, transforming growth factor- (TGF-) and activin A, as well as MM cell conditioned media. The enforced expression of Pim-2 abrogated in vitro osteoblastogenesis by BMP-2, which suggested Pim-2 as a negative regulator for osteoblastogenesis. Treatment with Pim-2 short-interference RNA as well as the Pim inhibitor SMI-16a successfully restored osteoblastogenesis suppressed by all the above inhibitory factors and MM cells. The SMI-16a treatment potentiated BMP-2-mediated anabolic signaling while suppressing TGF- signaling. Furthermore, treatment with the newly synthesized thiazolidine-2,4-dione congener, 12a-OH, as well as its prototypic SMI-16a effectively prevented bone destruction while suppressing MM tumor growth in MM animal models. Thus, Pim-2 may have a pivotal role in tumor progression and bone loss in MM, and Pim-2 inhibition may become an important therapeutic strategy to target the MM cell-bone marrow interaction.Leukemia advance online publication, 30 May 2014; doi:10.1038/leu.2014.147.

(Summary) Diketopiperazines bearing a benzyl moiety with different para-substituents were synthesized and analyzed by 1H NMR spectroscopy. All of these diketopiperazines were found to adopt a folded conformation according to the upfield chemical shift of the cis-proton (cis to the benzyl moiety) due to a shielding effect in the 1H NMR spectra. An intramolecular CH- interaction appears to be an important factor for the folded conformation due to the effects of para-substituents on the benzyl group.

(Summary) Overproduction of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) by lysophospholipase D/autotaxin (lysoPLD/ATX) is postulated to be involved in the promotion of cancer and atherosclerosis. A lysoPLD inhibitor may be utilized to ameliorate the LPA-related pathological conditions. In this study, a new assay was devised to quantify p-nitrophenol from hydrolysis of chromogenic substrate by serum lysoPLD without tedious lipid extraction procedures. Flavonols, phenolic acids, free fatty acids, and N-acyltyrosines inhibited lysoPLD activity in a micromolar range. They were classified into competitive, noncompetitive, or mixed type inhibitors. The results show that the low hydrophobicity of an inhibitor is a critical factor in its preference for the binding to a noncatalytic binding site over a catalytic binding site. Considering its reported bioavailability and the low dependency of its inhibitory activity on serum dilution, flavonol is likely to be a more effective lysoPLD inhibitor in human blood circulation in vivo than the other inhibitors including LPA.

(Summary) Promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein plays an essential role in the induction of apoptosis; its expression is reduced in various cancers. As the functional roles of PML in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) have not been clarified, we assessed the expression of PML protein in GBM tissues and explored the mechanisms of PML-regulated cell death in GBM cells. We examined the PML mRNA level and the expression of PML protein in surgical GBM specimens. PML-regulated apoptotic mechanisms in GBM cells transfected with plasmids expressing the PML gene were examined. The protein expression of PML was significantly lower in GBM than in non-neoplastic tissues; approximately 10% of GBM tissues were PML-null. The PML mRNA levels were similar in both tissue types. The overexpression of PML activated caspase-8 and induced apoptosis in GBM cells. In these cells, PML decreased the expression of transactivated forms of NFkappaB/p65, and c-FLIP gene expression was suppressed. Therefore, PML-induced apoptosis resulted from the suppression of the transcriptional activity of NFkappaB/p65. PML overexpression decreased phosphorylated IkappaBalpha and nuclear NFkappaB/p65 and increased the expression of the suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS-1). A proteasome inhibitor blocked the reduction of activated p65 by PML. The reduction of PML is associated with the pathogenesis of GBM. PML induces caspase-8-dependent apoptosis via the repression of NFkappaB activation by which PML facilitates the proteasomal degradation of activated p65 and the sequestration of p65 with IkappaBalpha in the cytoplasm. This novel mechanism of PML-regulated apoptosis may represent a therapeutic target for GBM.

(Summary) [structure: see text] Treatment of a chiral sulfonamide with Et(2)Zn gave quantitatively its Zn complex and then the structure was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Reaction of prochiral N-Boc-2-amino-2-alkyl-1,3-propanediols with Ac(2)O in the presence of 5 mol % of chiral sulfonamide-Zn complex catalyst afforded the corresponding chiral monoacetyl products in 70-92% yields with 70-88% ee values. The proposed mechanism for the catalytic monoacetylation of a prochiral 1,3-propanediol was presented on the basis of CSI-MS analysis.

Michiyasu Nakao : Development of Novel Functional Molecules Based on the Molecular Structure Characteristics of Diketopiperazines, Journal of the Pharmaceutical Society of Japan, Vol.137, No.12, 1505-1516, Dec. 2017. (Summary) This article focuses on our investigation of the molecular structure characteristics of diketopiperazines (DKPs), and application of these findings to the development of novel functional molecules. DKPs bearing a benzyl moiety are known to adopt a folded conformation, in which the benzyl moiety is folded over the DKP ring. In order to investigate the driving force behind the folded conformation, we synthesized DKPs bearing a benzyl moiety with different para-substituents, and demonstrated that the folded conformation likely arose from intramolecular CH/ϖ interactions, based on the electronic effects of para-substituents on the benzyl group in H NMR spectroscopy. On the other hand, N4-methylation of DKPs bearing a benzyl moiety was found to change their folded conformation to an extended conformation, based on single crystal X-ray crystallography and H NMR spectroscopy analysis. Next, we attempted to synthesize both hydroxamate-type siderophores containing the DKP ring: rhodotorulic acid and erythrochelin. Facile synthesis of rhodotorulic acid and its N,N'-dimethylated derivative was achieved by microwave-assisted cyclization of the corresponding dipeptide precursors. Interestingly, N,N'-dimethylated rhodotorulic acid was found to be more soluble in various organic solvents than rhodotorulic acid. Moreover, erythrochelin was synthesized for the first time, and its metal-chelating ability with not only Fe(III) but also Mg(II) was confirmed based on electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) analysis. Finally, we synthesized DKPs bearing a primary amino group, and found that they could catalyze the asymmetric aldol reaction between hydroxyacetone and p-nitrobenzaldehyde.

(Summary) 2,5-Diketopiperazines have attracted much attention because of their biological activities and molecular structure characteristics. Bis-lactim ethers derived from these 2,5-diketopiperazines include well-known organic molecules such as Schöllkopf chiral auxiliaries, which are used in asymmetric synthesis of -amino acids. In this article, we briefly discuss the chemistry of both heterocyclic compounds.
