Mariannaepyrone--a new inhibitor of thromboxane A2 induced platelet aggregation.
Mariannaeapyrone ((E)-2-(1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-5-nonenyl)-3,5-dimethyl-6-hydroxy-4H-pyran-4-one) is a new fungal metabolite isolated from fermentations of the common mycophilic deuteromycete Mariannaea elegans. The chemical structure of the 4-pyrone was determined by spectroscopic techniques. Mariannaeapyrone is a selective inhibitor of the thromboxane A2 induced aggregation of human platelets, w...
متن کاملSynthesis and biological properties of pinane-thromboxane A2, a selective inhibitor of coronary artery constriction, platelet aggregation, and thromboxane formation.
Pinane-thromboxane A2 (PTA2, [1alpha,2 beta(Z),-3 alpha (1E,3R*),5 alpha]-7-(3-(3-hydroxy-1-octenyl)-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]hept-2-yl)-5-heptenoic acid) has been synthesized and tested for biological activity in systems responsive to thromboxane A2, stable prostaglandin endoperoxide (PGH2) analogs, and prostatacyclin (PGI2). At low concentrations, PTA2 inhibited cat coronary artery constrict...
متن کاملReduction of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in 5-lipoxygenase knockout mice and by the 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor zileuton.
The role of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) in the pathophysiology of renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is not known. Here we investigate the effects of 1) the 5-LOX inhibitor zileuton and 2) 5-LOX gene knockout (5-LOX(-/-)) mice on renal dysfunction and injury caused by I/R of the kidney in mice. Wild-type mice treated with zileuton (3 mg/kg i.v.) or 5-LOX(-/-) mice were subjected to bilateral re...
متن کاملInhibition of 5-Lipoxygenase inhibitor zileuton in high-fat diet-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease progression model
Objective(s): Arachidonic Acid/5-lipoxygenase (AA/5-LOX) pathway connects lipid metabolism and proinflammatory cytokine, which are both related to the development and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Therefore, the present study was designed to investigate the role of AA/5-LOX pathway in progression of NAFLD, and the effect of zileuton, an inhibitor of 5-LOX, in this mod...
متن کاملProduction of platelet thromboxane A2 inactivates purified human platelet thromboxane synthase.
Human platelet thromboxane synthase was partially purified by DEAE-cellulose, Affi-Gel Blue, and Sephacryl S-300 chromatography to a specific activity of 259 nmol of thromboxane B2/min per mg. Thromboxane synthase retained 75-90% of its enzymic activity when bound to phenyl-Sepharose. The immobilized enzyme was inactivated at pH 3.0 and inhibited by 1-benzylimidazole and U-63,557A. The ability ...
