Drug‐loaded nanoparticles (NPs) are of particular interest for efficient cancer therapy due to their improved drug delivery and therapeutic index in various types of cancer. However, the encapsulation of many chemotherapeutics into delivery NPs is often hampered by their unfavorable physicochemical properties. Here, we employed a drug reform strategy to construct a small library of SN‐38 (7‐ethyl‐10‐hydroxycamptothecin)‐derived prodrugs, in which the phenolate group was modified with a variety of hydrophobic moieties. This esterification fine‐tuned the polarity of the SN‐38 molecule and enhanced the lipophilicity of the formed prodrugs, thereby inducing their self‐assembly into biodegradable poly(ethylene glycol)‐block‐poly(d,l ‐lactic acid) (PEG‐PLA) nanoparticulate structures. Our strategy combining the rational engineering of prodrugs with the pre‐eminent features of conventionally used polymeric materials should open new avenues for designing more potent drug delivery systems as a therapeutic modality. 相似文献

A new class of phosphate and phosphonate prodrugs, called HepDirect prodrugs, is described that combines properties of rapid liver cleavage with high plasma and tissue stability to achieve increased drug levels in the liver. The prodrugs are substituted cyclic 1,3-propanyl esters designed to undergo an oxidative cleavage reaction catalyzed by a cytochrome P(450) (CYP) expressed predominantly in the liver. Reported herein is the discovery of a prodrug series containing an aryl substituent at C4 and its use for the delivery of nucleoside-based drugs to the liver. Prodrugs of 5'-monophosphates of vidarabine, lamivudine (3TC), and cytarabine as well as the phosphonic acid adefovir were shown to cleave following exposure to liver homogenates and exhibit good stability in blood and other tissues. Prodrug cleavage required the presence of the aryl group in the cis-configuration, but was relatively independent of the nucleoside and absolute stereochemistry at C4. Mechanistic studies suggested that prodrug cleavage proceeded via an initial CYP3A-catalyzed oxidation to an intermediate ring-opened monoacid, which subsequently was converted to the phosph(on)ate and an aryl vinyl ketone by a beta-elimination reaction. Studies in primary rat hepatocytes and normal rats comparing 3TC and the corresponding HepDirect prodrug demonstrated the ability of these prodrugs to effectively bypass the rate-limiting nucleoside kinase step and produce higher levels of the biologically active nucleoside triphosphate. 相似文献

Reported is the synthesis of azo mutual prodrugs of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs) 4-aminophenylacetic acid (4-APAA) or 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) with peptides, including an antibiotic peptide temporin analogue modified at the amino terminal by an α-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) residue. These prodrugs are designed for colonic delivery of two agents to treat infection and inflammation by the bacterial pathogen Clostridium difficile . 相似文献

This paper describes the voltammetric behavior of primaquine as a previous support to the further understanding of the delivery and action mechanisms of its respective synthesized prodrugs. There are few papers describing the drug behavior and most of the time no correlation between oxidation process and pH is done. Our results showed that primaquine oxidation is a one-step reaction involving two electrons with the charge transfer process being strongly pH-dependent in acid medium and pH-independent in a weak basic medium, with the neutral form being easily oxidized. This leads to the conclusion that quinoline nitrogen ring neutralization is a determinant step to the formation of the oxidized primaquine form. The existence of a relationship between the primaquine dissociation equilibrium and its electrooxidation process is shown. This work points the importance of voltammetric methodology as a tool for further studies on quantitative relationship studies between chemical structure and biological activity (QSAR) for electroactive drugs. 相似文献

Prodrug strategies have been proven to be a very effective way of addressing delivery problems. Much of the chemistry in prodrug development relies on the ability to mask an appropriate functional group, which can be removed under appropriate conditions. However, developing organic prodrugs of gasotransmitters represent unique challenges. This is especially true with carbon monoxide, which does not have an easy “handle” for bioreversible derivatization. By taking advantage of an intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction, we have developed a prodrug strategy for preparations of organic CO prodrugs that are stable during synthesis and storage, and yet readily release CO with tunable release rates under near physiological conditions. The effectiveness of the CO prodrug system in delivering a sufficient quantity of CO for possible therapeutic applications has been studied using a cell culture anti‐inflammatory assay and a colitis animal model. These studies fully demonstrate the proof of concept, and lay a strong foundation for further medicinal chemistry work in developing organic CO prodrugs. 相似文献

Oxygenation of a series of p-substituted phenols to the corresponding catechols (phenolase activity) by the (mu-eta2:eta2-peroxo)dicopper(II) species of Octopus hemocyanin has been directly examined for the first time by using a UV-vis spectroscopic method in a 0.5 M borate buffer solution containing 8 M urea under anaerobic conditions. Preliminary kinetic studies have indicated that the reaction involves an electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanism as in the case of phenolase reaction of tyrosinase. The oxygenation of phenols by hemocyanin also proceeded catalytically when the reaction was carried out under aerobic conditions. 相似文献

Anti HIV molecules as numerous drugs cannot efficiently penetrate into the brain. Prodrug synthesis and encapsulation into
pegylated nanocarriers have been proposed as an approach for brain delivery. Pegylated polymeric nanoparticles and liposomes
were chosen to incorporate glycerolipidic prodrugs of didanosine. Differential scanning calorimetry experiments were performed
on mixtures of prodrugs and lipids or polymer in order to study their interaction. The optimal incorporation ratios were determined
for each prodrug and compared for both types of nanocarriers. All these results would be used to prepare optimised formulations
of didanosine prodrugs loaded into pegylated nanocarriers for brain drug delivery. 相似文献

5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is used widely as an anticancer drug to treat solid cancers, such as colon, breast, rectal, and pancreatic cancers, although its clinical application is limited because 5-FU has gastrointestinal and hematological toxicity. Many groups are searching for prodrugs with functions that are tumor selective in their delivery and can be activated to improve the clinical utility of 5-FU as an important cancer chemotherapeutic agent. UV and ionizing radiation can cause chemical reactions in a localized area of the body, and these have been applied in the development of site-specific drug activation and sensitization. In this review, we describe recent progress in the development of novel 5-FU prodrugs that are activated site specifically by UV light and ionizing radiation in the tumor microenvironment. We also discuss the chemical mechanisms underlying this activation. 相似文献

Dual Diomarkers Triggered Prodrugs for Precise Treatment of Melanoma:Design,Synthesis and Activities
Targeted prodrug strategy, which utilizes the endogenous biomarkers in cancer cells as activators to release the active drug, has been well established either in the fundamental research or the clinical treatment. However, many prodrugs suffer from safety concern due to "off-target activation". Dual or multiple biomarkers triggered prodrug may provide an effective strategy to overcoming the "off-target effect". Melanoma cells have both high levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS) and tyrosinase(TYR), which makes them significantly different from other tumor cells and normal cells. Here we reported a series of quinazolinone-aryl boronic acid/ester-based prodrugs, which can be activated by the cascade of ROS and TYR and selectively kill melanoma cells. The structure-activity relationship(SAR) analysis revealed that mitochondria-targeting property was vital for their cytotoxicity and the dual activated effector played a significant role in their selectivity towards melanoma cells. Among these candidates, compound 4b showed the highest toxicity to B16, leading to an imbalance of the redox system in melanoma cells, causing mitochondrial DNA damage, and then promoting melanoma cells death. 相似文献

Tyrosinases catalyze oxidation of phenols with a formation of biphenols, quinones, and highly polymerized melanins. Tyrosinases have prospects for industrial use to remove phenols, also in biosensors, in bioorganic synthesis, and for a production of biocompatible adhesives (medical glues). Despite growing fields of potential applications, a selection of commercially available tyrosinases are currently limited to a single enzyme which is isolated from fruiting bodies of mushrooms. This article describes a preparation of recombinant tyrosinase from a bacterium Verrucomicrobium spinosum using a heterologous expression in Escherichia coli. Recombinant V. spinosum tyrosinase has high specific activity (13,200 U/mg). A resistance of the enzyme was investigated to chemical agents used to denature proteins and keep poorly solvable proteins in a solution. The enzyme preserves activity in the presence of urea and retains at least a fraction of its enzymatic activity at concentrations of urea up to 4.5 M. An addition of sodium lauroyl sarcosinate to 1 or 2% activates the tyrosinase. Novel means of quantitatively expressing tyrosinase activity is described in this article. The method uses a set of parameters obtained from non-linear estimation of the progress curves and is suitable for enzymatic reactions which do not comply with Michaelis–Menten kinetics. Tyrosinase may be used to introduce into proteins a post-translational modification which is a conversion of tyrosine residues (Tyr) into residues of 3,4-dioxyphenylalanine (DOPA). The presence of DOPA provides the polypeptides with a capability of strong molecular adhesion. Co-expression of tyrosinase and a recombinant protein mimicking marine mussel-encoded adhesive proteins resulted in obtaining of the protein in which at least a part of Tyr residues had been converted to DOPA. The DOPA-containing protein had high adhesion strength (2.5 MPa). 相似文献

Tumour hypoxia plays an important role in tumour progression and resistance to therapy. Under hypoxia unfolded proteins accumulate in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and this stress is relieved through the protein kinase R‐like ER kinase (PERK) signalling arm of the unfolded protein response (UPR). Targeting the UPR through PERK kinase inhibitors provides tumour growth inhibition, but also elicits on‐mechanism normal tissue toxicity. Hypoxia presents a target for tumour‐selective drug delivery using hypoxia‐activated prodrugs. We designed and prepared hypoxia‐activated prodrugs of modified PERK inhibitors using a 2‐nitroimidazole bioreductive trigger. The new inhibitors retained PERK kinase inhibitory activity and the corresponding prodrugs were strongly deactivated. The prodrugs were able to undergo fragmentation following radiolytic reduction, or bioreduction in HCT116 cells, to release their effectors, albeit inefficiently. We examined the effects of the prodrugs on PERK signalling in hypoxic HCT116 cells. This study has identified a 2‐substituted nitroimidazole carbamate prodrug with potential to deliver PERK inhibitors in a hypoxia‐selective manner. 相似文献

A series of amino acid monoester prodrugs of floxuridine was synthesized and evaluated for the improvement of oral bioavailability and the feasibility of target drug delivery via oligopeptide transporters. All floxuridine 5'-amino acid monoester prodrugs exhibited PEPT1 affinity, with inhibition coefficients of Gly-Sar uptake (IC50) ranging from 0.7 - 2.3 mM in Caco-2 and 2.0 - 4.8 mM in AsPC-1 cells, while that of floxuridine was 7.3 mM and 6.3 mM, respectively. Caco-2 membrane permeabilities of floxuridine prodrugs (1.01 - 5.31 x 10(-6 )cm/sec) and floxuridine (0.48 x 10(-6 )cm/sec) were much higher than that of 5-FU (0.038 x 10(-6) cm/sec). MDCK cells stably transfected with the human oligopeptide transporter PEPT1 (MDCK/hPEPT1) exhibited enhanced cell growth inhibition in the presence of the prodrugs. This prodrug strategy offers great potential, not only for increased drug absorption but also for improved tumor selectivity and drug efficacy. 相似文献

In the present article, tyrosinase inhibition studies on fifteen diterpenoid alkaloids, with lycoctonine skeleton, and their semisynthetic derivatives 1-15 and six napelline-type compounds 16-21 are discussed. Their structure-activity relationship for tyrosinase inhibition is also discussed. These activities were compared with two referenced tyrosinase inhibitors, kojic acid and L-mimosine. The study showed that lappaconitine HBr (1) is the most potent member of the series (IC50 = 13.30 microM). 相似文献

Colloidal and interfacial phenomena lie at the core of drug formulation, drug delivery, as well as drug binding and action at diseased sites, e.g., in cancer therapy. We review a class of liposome-based drug-delivery systems whose design and functional properties are intimately controlled by the stability of sub-micron structures, lipid-bilayer interfaces, and interfacially activated enzymes that can be exploited to target and deliver drugs. Moreover these drugs can themselves be special lipid molecules in the form of lipid prodrugs that both form the liposomal carrier as well as the substrate for endogenously upregulated lipases that turn the prodrugs into potent drugs precisely at the diseased site. 相似文献

Drug delivery systems (DDS) are used to achieve a higher therapeutic effects of a pharmaceutical drug or natural compound in a specific diseased site with minimal toxicological effect and these systems consists of liposomes, microspheres, gels, prodrugs and many. Nanotechnology is a rapidly developing multi-disciplinary science that ensures the fabrication of the polymers to nanometer scale for various medical applications. Uses of biopolymers in DDS ensure the biocompatibility, biodegradability and low immunogenicity over the synthetic ones. Biopolymers such as silk fibroins, collagen, gelatin, albumin, starch, cellulose and chitosan can be easily made into suspension that serve as delivery vehicles for both macro and mini drug molecules. There are various methods such as supercritical fluid extraction, desolvation, electrospraying, spray-drying, layer-by-layer self-assembly, freeze-drying and microemulsion introduced to make these DDS. This drug carrier systems enhance the drug delivery actively and can be used in ocular, transdermal, dental or intranasal delivery systems. This review describes the new trends in nanomaterials based drug delivery systems mainly using biopolymers such as proteins (silk fibroin, collagen, gelatin and albumin) and polysaccharides (chitosan, alginate, cellulose and starch). 相似文献

Self-immolative (SI) spacers are sophisticated chemical constructs designed for molecular delivery or material degradation. We describe herein a (S)-2-(aminomethyl)pyrrolidine SI spacer that is able to release different types of anticancer drugs (possessing either a phenolic or secondary and tertiary hydroxyl groups) through a fast cyclization mechanism involving carbamate cleavage. The high efficiency of drug release obtained with this spacer was found to be beneficial for the in vitro cytotoxic activity of protease-sensitive prodrugs, compared with a commonly used spacer of the same class. These findings expand the repertoire of degradation machineries and are instrumental for the future development of highly efficient delivery platforms. 相似文献

In this work, we have synthesized a series of 2-thiazolylhydrazone derivatives ( 1–27 ) and investigated their biological activities as tyrosinase inhibitors and antioxidants. Some compounds showed potent tyrosinase inhibitory activities and 4-(2-(2-(1-(4-Aminophenyl)ethylidene)-hydrazinyl)thiazol-4-yl) phenol ( 26 ) showed more potent inhibitory effect than the standard tyrosinase inhibitor kojic acid (IC50: 9.8 μM vs. 23.6 μM). Compounds 2 , 14 , and 26 exhibited high antioxidant activities in 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) assays. The structure–activity relationship (SAR) indicated that the substitutions of bromine, hydroxyl group, and amino groups cause great effect to the inhibition effect against tyrosinase. The mechanism and kinetic studies demonstrated that the inhibitory effect of compound 26 on the tyrosinase by acting as the reversible and uncompetitive inhibitor. Docking studies suggests that compound 26 interacts strongly with mushroom tyrosinase via hydrogen bonding. 相似文献

Fluorescence imaging of tyrosinase (a cancer biomarker) in living organisms is of great importance for biological studies. However, selective detection of tyrosinase remains a great challenge because current fluorescent probes that contain the 4‐hydroxyphenyl moiety show similar fluorescence responses to both tyrosinase and some reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby suffering from ROS interference. Herein, a new tyrosinase‐recognition 3‐hydroxybenzyloxy moiety, which exhibits distinct fluorescence responses for tyrosinase and ROS, is proposed. Using the recognition moiety, we develop a near‐infrared fluorescence probe for tyrosinase activity, which effectively eliminates the interference from ROS. The high specificity of the probe was demonstrated by imaging and detecting endogenous tyrosinase activity in live cells and zebrafish and further validated by an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. The probe is expected to be useful for the accurate detection of tyrosinase in complex biosystems. 相似文献
