Improved prodrug-activating enzymes have the potential to increase the therapeutic efficacy of gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapy (GDEPT). Yeast cytosine deaminase (yCD) is commonly used to convert the prodrug 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) to the chemotherapeutic 5-fluorouracil for GDEPT. Mutagenesis studies on yCD aimed at improving its application in GDEPT have been limited to subsets of residues or have sought to improve a single property of the enzyme. We performed comprehensive site-saturation mutagenesis (CSM) on yCD designed to create all 2,983 possible unique protein mutants with a single amino acid substitution. We identified active variants through Escherichia coli genetic complementation and screened these mutants, and combinations thereof, for increased ability to sensitize E. coli and HT1080 fibrosarcoma cells to 5-FC. Several mutants identified in this study showed increased sensitization ability for both E. coli and HT1080 cells indicating that CSM is an effective directed evolution tool for identifying unexpectedly beneficial mutations. 相似文献

Plasmodium falciparum is responsible of the most severe form of malaria, and new targets and novel chemotherapeutic scaffolds are needed to fight emerging multidrug‐resistant strains of this parasite. Bis‐alkylguanidines have been designed to mimic choline, resulting in the inhibition of plasmodial de novo phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis. Despite potent in vitro antiplasmodial and in vivo antimalarial activities, a major drawback of these compounds for further clinical development is their low oral bioavailability. To solve this issue, various modulations were performed on bis‐alkylguanidines. The introduction of N‐disubstituents on the guanidino motif improved both in vitro and in vivo activities. On the other hand, in vivo pharmacological evaluation in a mouse model showed that the N‐hydroxylated derivatives constitute the first oral bioprecursors in bis‐alkylguanidine series. This study paves the way for bis‐alkylguanidine‐based oral antimalarial agents targeting plasmodial phospholipid metabolism. 相似文献

ABSTRACTWe synthesized dexamethasone 21-sulfate sodium (DS) as a colon-specific prodrug of dexamethasone and investigated its properties. Introduction of a sulfate group to dexamethasone lowered the apparent partition coefficient from 52.5 to 0.27 in 1-octanol/pH 6.8 phosphate buffer at 37°C. DS was stable on incubation with buffer solutions of varied pH or with the upper intestinal contents of rats at 37°C for 24 h. On incubation with the cecal contents, DS was hydrolyzed by producing dexamethasone over 80% of the dose at 10 h. When DS was incubated with the cecal contents collected from trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitic rats, the degree of prodrug hydrolysis and production of dexamethasone amounted to 70% of healthy rats. In comparison with prednisolone, hydrocortisone, and cortisone, dexamethasone was stable against bioinactivation by the cecal contents, a desirable property for the development of a colon-specific prodrug. These results demonstrated that DS might be delivered specifically to the colon as an intact form to produce dexamethasone in high yield, suggesting DS as a potential colon-specific prodrug of dexamethasone. 相似文献

A series of novel copolymers, poly(methacryloyl‐2‐oxy‐1,2,3‐propanetricarboxylic acid‐co‐exo‐3,6‐epoxy‐1,2,3,6‐tetrahydrophthalic acid) [poly(MTCA‐co‐ETAc)], poly(methacryloyl‐2‐oxy‐1,2,3‐propanetricarboxylic acid‐co‐hydrogenethyl‐exo‐3,6‐epoxy‐1,2,3,6‐tetrahydrophthalate) [poly(MTCA‐co‐HEET)], and poly(methacryloyl‐2‐oxy‐1,2,3‐propanetricarboxylic acid‐co‐α‐ethoxy‐exo‐3,6‐epoxy‐1,2,3,6‐tetrahydrophthaloyl‐5‐fluorouracil) [poly(MTCA‐co‐EETFU)], were prepared from corresponding monomers by photopolymerizations at 25°C for 48 h. The polymers were identified by FTIR, 1H‐NMR, and 13C‐NMR spectroscopies. The number‐average molecular weights of the fractionated polymers determined by GPC were in the range from 9400 to 14,900 and polydispersity indices were 1.2–1.4. The in vitro IC50 values of polymers against mouse mammary carcinoma (FM3A), mouse leukemia (P388), and human histiocytic lymphoma (U937) as cancer cell lines and mouse liver cells (AC2F) as a normal cell line were much higher compared to that of 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU). The in vivo antitumor activities of monomers and polymers against mice bearing sarcoma 180 tumor cell line were better than those of 5‐FU. The inhibition of DNA replication and antiangiogenesis activities of MTCA and copolymers were better compared to those of 5‐FU. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 94: 57–64, 2004 相似文献
