چکیده
(+/-)-N-(n-propyl) amphetamine (I), a secondary amine, was readily metabolized by Cumminghamella echinulata. The products included known C- and N-oxygenated mammalian metabolites as well as N-acetylamphetamine and were identified by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry.

Cunninghamella as a Microbiological Model for Metabolism of Histamine H3 Receptor Antagonist 1-[3-(4-tert-Butylphenoxy)propyl]piperidine
The aim of the study was to analyze the ability of the microorganism Cunninghamella to carry out the biotransformation of 1-[3-(4-tert-butylphenoxy)propyl]piperidine (DL76) and to compare the obtained results with in silico models. Biotransformation was carried out by three strains of filamentous fungus: Cunninghamella echinulata, Cunninghamella blakesleeana, and Cunninghamella elegans. Most pr...
متن کاملBiotransformation of bromhexine by Cunninghamella elegans, C. echinulata and C. blakesleeana
Fungi is a well-known model used to study drug metabolism and its production in in vitro condition. We aim to screen the most efficient strain of Cunninghamella sp. among C. elegans, C. echinulata and C. blakesleeana for bromhexine metabolites production. We characterized the metabolites produced using various analytical tools and compared them with mammalian metabolites in Rat liver microsomes...
متن کاملStereoselective metabolism of rac-mexiletine by the fungus Cunninghamella echinulata yields the major human metabolites hydroxymethylmexiletine and p-hydroxymexiletine.
rac-Mexiletine is an orally effective class 1b antiarrhythmic agent used to treat ventricular arrhythmias. In vivo experiments have demonstrated. It is predominantly metabolized by the liver with < 10% excreted as unchanged drug. The major mammalian metabolites have been identified as p-hydroxymexiletine (PHM) and hydroxymethylmexiletine (HMM). The purpose of our study was to determine whether ...
متن کاملIsolation and Characterization of Three Unrecorded Zygomycete Fungi in Korea: Cunninghamella bertholletiae, Cunninghamella echinulata, and Cunninghamella elegans
In a survey of undiscovered taxa in Korea, three zygomycete fungal strains-EML-W31, EML-HGD1-1, and EML-RUS1-1-were isolated from freshwater, grasshopper fecal, and soil samples in Korea. On the basis of the morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analysis of internal transcribed spacer and 28S rDNA, the isolates of EML-W31, EML-HGD1-1, and EML-RUS1-1 were confirmed to be Cunninghamella ...
متن کاملDNA barcoding of clinically relevant Cunninghamella species.
Mucormycosis caused, in part, by representatives of the genus Cunninghamella is a severe infection with high mortality in patients with impaired immunity. Several species have been described in the literature as etiologic agents. A DNA barcoding study using ITS rDNA and tef-1α provided concordance of molecular data with conventional characters. The currently accepted Cunninghamella species were...
