Effects of netropsin and pentamidine amino analogues on the amidolytic activity of plasmin, trypsin and urokinase.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Inhibitory effects of nine carbocyclic DNA minor groove binders on amidolytic activities of plasmin, trypsin and urokinase were examined. Some of the studied compounds affected plasmin or trypsin activity, but not urokinase activity. One of the pentamidine analogues (5) and two bis-netropsin like compounds (6, 8) were potent inhibitors of plasmin (IC50 equals 90 and 100 microM), whereas an analogue of netropsin (2) was trypsin inhibitor (IC50 = 100 microM).

The amino analogues of pentamidine with a polymethylene (n = 3 - 6) chain and their chlorambucil derivatives were synthesized. The obtained compounds revealed cytotoxic effect on MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line (IC50 = 22 - 95 +/- 2 pM), mainly by the induction of apoptosis. The topoisomerase I/II inhibition assay and the ethidium displacement assay with the use of pBR322 plasmid DNA were u...

Four conformationally restricted analogues of pentamidine were prepared. Then, different concentrations (0.039, 0.078, 0.156, 0.312 and 0.625 mg/mL) of each compound and two positive controls (amphotericin B and pentamidine, 0.625 mg/mL), one negative control (culture medium) and one solvent control (DMSO) were prepared and placed in 24-well plates containing 50000 parasite per well.

متن کاملReaction of a tumour-associated trypsin inhibitor with serine proteinases associated with coagulation and tumour invasion.
The inhibition of six serine proteinases by a tumour-associated trypsin inhibitor (TATI) was studied using synthetic peptide substrates. Physiological concentrations of TATI inhibited the amidolytic activities of trypsin, plasmin, urokinase and tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). Chymotrypsin, kallikrein and thrombin were also inhibited, but by much higher concentrations of TATI. The ability of...

متن کاملCarbocyclic analogues of lexitropsin--DNA affinity and endonuclease inhibition.
A DNA-binding affinity and the effect on restriction enzymes activity of seven carbocyclic mono- and bis-lexitropsins and two analogues of pentamidine with unsubstituted N-terminal amine group were investigated. DNA association constants (Kapp) show that DNA affinity of mono-compounds is much weaker than netropsin and distamycin. Bis-analogues of netropsin bind DNA more strongly than mono-ligan...
