1987
Als Histaminderivate mit H1-affinitatsvermittelnden Strukturelementen in 2-Stellung des Imidazolrings wurden 2-Aryloxyalkyl- und 2-Aminoalkylhistamine sowie das racemische 2-(1-Phenylethyl)histamin dargestellt und auf Histamin-H1-agonistische Aktivitat untersucht. Histamine Analogues, XXVIII: 2-(Aryloxyalkyl)- and 2-(Aminoalkyl)histamines As histamine derivatives with structures at position 2 of the imidazole ring, which mediate H1-receptor affinity, 2-(aryloxyalkyl)- and 2-(aminoalkyl)histamines as well as racemic 2-(1-phenylethyl)histamine were prepared and tested for histamine H1-agonistic activity.
Faldaprevir (BI 201335), BI 207127 and ribavirin oral therapy for treatment-naive HCV genotype 1: SOUND-C1 final results
2013
Background Faldaprevir (BI 201335) and deleobuvir (BI 207127) are direct-acting antiviral agents under development for the treatment of chronic HCV infection. This article describes the final results of the Phase Ib SOUND-C1 study that evaluated the interferon-free oral combination of faldaprevir, deleobuvir and ribavirin in 32 treatment-naive patients infected with HCV genotype 1. Methods Patients were randomized to receive deleobuvir 400 mg ( n=15) or 600 mg ( n=17) three times daily plus faldaprevir 120 mg once daily and weight-based ribavirin for 4 weeks. Interferon-free therapy was followed by response-guided faldaprevir plus pegylated interferon-α2a/ribavirin to week 24 or 48. Results…
Suitability of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium ionic liquids for the analysis of pharmaceutical formulations containing tricyclic antidepressants
2018
Abstract The reversed-phase chromatographic behaviour of six tricyclic antidepressants (amitryptiline, clomipramine, doxepin, imipramine, nortryptiline and maprotiline) was examined in this work with acetonitrile-water mobile phases, in the absence and presence of the ionic liquids 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride and 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, which have interesting features for the separation of basic compounds, in terms of peak shape combined with reduced retention. Tricyclic antidepressants are low polarity drugs that strongly associate to the alkyl chains of conventional stationary phases. They are also positively charged in the usual working pH range (2–8) in r…
Imidazolsynthesen, 8. Mitt.: N-Substituierte Imidazole nach Weidenhagen
1976
Die Weidenhagen-Synthese N-unsubstituierter Imidazole aus α-substituierten Carbonylverbindungen 1, Aldehyden 3, wasrigem Ammoniak (4) und Kupfer(II)-salzen als Oxidationsmittel ist in Gegenwart primarer Amine 5 auch zur Darstellung N-substituierter Imidazole 6 geeignet. Weidenhagen Synthesis of N-Substituted Imidazoles The Weidenhagen synthesis of N-unsubstituted imidazoles from α-substituted carbonyl compounds 1, aldehydes 3, and aqueous ammonia (4) with copper (II) salts as oxidizing agents is also usable for the synthesis of N-substituted imidazoles 6 through the addition of primary amines 5.
ChemInform Abstract: Photoinduced Molecular Rearrangements. The Photochemistry of Some 1,2, 4-Oxadiazoles in the Presence of Nitrogen Nucleophiles. F…
2010
The photochemistry of some 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoles in the presence of nitrogen nucleophiles [external, such as added amines or hydrazines, or internal, such as an o-aminophenyl moiety at C(3) of the oxadiazole ring] has been investigated. In the irradiation of 5-amino-(or 5-N-substituted amino) 3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles in the presence of aliphatic primary amines (or ammonia), photolytic species arising from heterolytic cleavage of the ring O−N bond capture the nucleophilic reagent to give open-chain intermediates, which develop into 1,2,4-triazolin-5-ones. Similarly, irradiations of 3,5-diphenyl-, 3-methoxy-5-phenyl-, and 5-methyl-3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles gave 1,2,4-triazole…
Amyloid Fibrils Formation of Concanavalin A at Basic pH
2011
Mechanisms of partial unfolding and aggregation of proteins are of extreme interest in view of the fact that several human pathologies are characterized by the formation and deposition of protein-insoluble material, mainly composed of amyloid fibrils. Here we report on an experimental study on the heat-induced aggregation mechanisms, at basic pH, of concanavalin A (ConA), used as a model system. Thioflavin T (ThT) fluorescence and multiangle light scattering allowed us to detect different intertwined steps in the formation of ConA aggregates. In particular, the ThT fluorescence increase, observed in the first phase of aggregation, reveals the formation of intermolecular β-sheet structure wh…
Kinetics of different processes in human insulin amyloid formation.
2007
Human insulin has long been known to form amyloid fibrils under given conditions. The molecular basis of insulin aggregation is relevant for modeling the amyloidogenesis process, which is involved in many pathologies, as well as for improving delivery systems, used for diabetes treatments. Insulin aggregation displays a wide variety of morphologies, from small oligomeric filaments to huge floccules, and therefore different specific processes are likely to be intertwined in the overall aggregation. In the present work, we studied the aggregation kinetics of human insulin at low pH and different temperatures and concentrations. The structure and the morphogenesis of aggregates on a wide range…
Synthesis and evaluation of 18F-fluoroethylated benzothiazole derivatives for in vivo imaging of amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease
2010
Amyloid aggregates play a major role in the development of Alzheimer's disease. Targeting these aggregates by PET probes enables non-invasively the detection and quantification of amyloid deposit distribution in human brains. Based on benzothiazole core structure a series of amyloid imaging agents were developed. Currently [(11)C]2-(4'-(methylamino)phenyl)-6-hydroxybenzothiazole (Pittsburgh Compound-B (PIB) is the most specific and widely used amyloid imaging ligand. But due to the short half life of (11)C, longer lived (18)F-labeled derivatives offer logistic advantages and higher contrast images. In this work, three different [(18)F]fluoroethoxy-substituted benzothiazole derivatives ([(18…
Thioflavin T Hydroxylation at Basic pH and Its Effect on Amyloid Fibril Detection
2008
The fluorescent dye thioflavin T (ThT) is commonly used for in situ amyloid fibril detection. In this work, we focused on the spectroscopic properties and chemical stability of ThT in aqueous solution as a function of pH, temperature, and dye concentration. A reversible hydroxylation process occurs in alkaline solutions, which was characterized using a combination of UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, proton NMR, and density functional theory (DFT). On the basis of these studies, we propose a chemical structure for the hydroxylated form. Finally, by means of fluorescence spectroscopy, ThT hydroxylation effects on in situ amyloid detection have been investigated, providing new insights on the e…
Structural analysis of copper(I) interaction with amyloid β peptide
2019
Abstract The N-terminal fragment of Aβ (β = beta) peptide is able to bind essential transition metal ions like, copper, zinc and iron. Metal binding usually occurs via the imidazole nitrogens of the three His residues which play a key role in the coordination chemistry. Among all the investigated systems, the interaction between copper and Amyloid β assume a biological relevance because of the interplay between the two copper oxidation states, Cu(II) and Cu(I), and their involvement in redox reactions. Both copper ions share the ability to bind Amyloid β. A huge number of investigations have demonstrated that Cu(II) anchors to the N-terminal amino and His6, His13/14 imidazole groups, while …
