Caki-1 cells as a model system for the interaction of renally secreted drugs with OCT3.
2008
<i>Background/Aims:</i> Organic cation transporters (OCT) in the proximal tubules (PTs) participate in the renal secretion of several therapeutic agents. The exact role of OCT3 in renal secretion remains undetermined, partially due to the lack of an appropriate in vitro model system. The current work introduces the PT representative cell line, Caki-1, as a model system for studying the involvement of OCT3 in renal secretion. <i>Methods:</i> Caki-1 cells were characterized for OCT3 expression via real-time RT-PCR and immunocytochemical staining techniques. Uptake kinetics of OCT3 in Caki-1 cells was determined using prototypical substrates and inhibitors. Inhibition o…
Hexachlororhenate(IV) salts of organic radical cations
2005
Abstract The ionic salts ( p -rad) 2 [ReCl 6 ] ( 1 ) and ( m -rad) 2 [ReCl 6 ] ( 2 ) ( p / m -rad = 2-(4/3- N -methylpyridinium)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1 H -imidazol-1-oxyl-3- N -oxide) have been prepared and their crystal structures determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The nitronyl nitroxide cations in compound 1 show a layered disposition, whereas the [ReCl 6 ] 2− units are placed between these layers. The nitronyl nitroxide cations in compound 2 adopt an hexagonal array but they do not result in layers. Bulk magnetic properties of 1 and 2 have been investigated in the temperature range 2–300 K. Both compounds show weak but significant intermolecular antiferromagnetic …
Coupling of Azomethine Ylides with Nitrilium Derivatives ofcloso-Decaborate Clusters: A Synthetic and Theoretical Study
2012
The azomethine ylides p-R3C5H4N+CH−COC6H4R2-p (3 a: R3=H, R2=H, X=Br; 3 b: R3=H, R2=Me, X=I; 3 c: R3=H, R2=OMe, X=I; 3 d: R3=H, R2=F, X=I; 3 e: R3=Me, R2=Me, X=Br) react with the nitrile functionality of the closo-decaborate clusters [Bun4N][B10H9(NCR1)] (1 a: R1=Me; 1 b: R1=Et; 1 c: R1=Ph) in a CH3NO2 solution under mild conditions (20–25 °C, 2 min) to afford selectively products of the nucleophilic addition (ca. quantitative yields based on NMR analysis in [D6]DMSO, 71–87 % yield of isolated products). These products are the borylated enamino ketones as the salts bearing exclusively a tetrabutylammonium cation [Bun4N][B10H9{NCR1=C(N+C5H4R3-p)COC6H4R2-p}] (4 a–h,k–n) or the mixed salts [Bu…
A study of the influence of ionic liquids properties on the Kemp elimination reaction
2009
The morpholino-induced elimination of 5-nitrobenzisoxazole into the relevant 2-cyano-4-nitrophenolate has been used as a sample reaction in order to investigate molecular properties of some room temperature ionic liquids. The kinetic study was carried out at 298 K by means of spectrophotometric measurements. Ionic liquids, which differ in both their cation and anion properties, were used as solvent systems. In particular, aliphatic (pyrrolidinium, piperidinium, and ammonium) and aromatic (imidazolium and pyridinium) ionic liquids were used. For aromatic cations, imidazolium ions having different hydrogen-bond donor ability or a different alkyl-chain length were taken into account. The anion…
Oxidative C-N fusion of pyridinyl-substituted porphyrins.
2018
International audience; The mild (electro) chemical oxidation of pyridin-2-ylthio-meso substituted Ni(II) porphyrins affords C-N fused cationic and dicationic pyridinium-based derivatives. These porphyrins are fully characterized and the molecular structure of one of them was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. A mechanism for the intramolecular oxidative C-N coupling is proposed based on theoretical calculations and cyclic voltammetry analyses.
Structural characterization, thermal, dielectric, vibrational properties and molecular dynamics of (C5H5NH)3BiCl6
2009
Abstract (C5H5NH)3BiCl6 crystallizes at room temperature in the triclinic space group P 1 ¯ . The crystal is built up of the separated BiCl 6 3 - octahedral anions and pyridinium cations. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and dilatometric measurements disclose structural phase transition of first-order type at 265/302 K (cooling/heating). The dielectric investigations reveal a step-wise change of the electric permittivity at Tc characteristic of the crystals with the high-temperature plastic-like phase. Temperature-dependent infrared spectra for polycrystalline samples have been taken between 20 and 306 K to clarify the cation dynamics contribution to the mechanism of the phase transi…
Designing fluorous domains. Synthesis of a series of pyridinium salts bearing a perfluoroalkylated azole moiety
2006
The synthesis of a series of N-methylpyridinium salts bearing a perfluoroalkylated 1,2,4-oxadiazole or 1,2,4-triazole moiety is reported. X-Ray structures of representative perfluoroalkyl-triazolylpyridine (15) and methyl- pyridinium iodide salt (5a) are reported. Their crystal packing clearly shows segregation between the aromatic and parallel double layer fluorinated regions.
The Chemistry of [1,2,3]Triazolo[1,5- a] pyridines
2003
The reactivity of [1,2,3]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridines 1 is described. Triazolopyridines react with electrophiles in two contrasting ways, giving 3-substituted triazolopyridines 2, or products 3, resulting from triazolo ring opening with loss of molecular nitrogen. The triazolopyridines can be lithiated at -40 degrees C by lithium diisopropylamide in ether giving regiospecifically the 7-lithio derivative. Bromotriazolopyridines have activation towards nucleophilic substitution at position 5 and 7, and benzenoid inertness at position 6. The parent compound 1a is easily hydrogenated giving tetrahydrotriazolopyridine 11a in high yield; when the triazolopyridines have substituents, the hydrogenation…
Modification of Plasma Membrane Organization in Tobacco Cells Elicited by Cryptogein
2014
Abstract Lipid mixtures within artificial membranes undergo a separation into liquid-disordered and liquid-ordered phases. However, the existence of this segregation into microscopic liquid-ordered phases has been difficult to prove in living cells, and the precise organization of the plasma membrane into such phases has not been elucidated in plant cells. We developed a multispectral confocal microscopy approach to generate ratiometric images of the plasma membrane surface of Bright Yellow 2 tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) suspension cells labeled with an environment sensitive fluorescent probe. This allowed the in vivo characterization of the global level of order of this membrane, by which w…
Multicompartment Micelles with Adjustable Poly(ethylene glycol) Shell for Efficient in Vivo Photodynamic Therapy
2014
We describe the preparation of well-defined multicompartment micelles from polybutadiene-block-poly(1-methyl-2-vinyl pyridinium methyl sulfate)-block-poly(methacrylic acid) (BVqMAA) triblock terpolymers and their use as advanced drug delivery systems for photodynamic therapy (PDT). A porphyrazine derivative was incorporated into the hydrophobic core during self-assembly and served as a model drug and fluorescent probe at the same time. The initial micellar corona is formed by negatively charged PMAA and could be gradually changed to poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) in a controlled fashion through interpolyelectrolyte complex formation of PMAA with positively charged poly(ethylene glycol)-block-p…
