A new bis-pyrazolylpyridine ruthenium(III) complex as a potential anticancer drug:
    Dalton transactions (Cambridge, England : 2003), 2021, Jun-08, Volume: 50, Issue:22

    We synthesized and characterized the ruthenium(iii) pincer-type complex [RuCl3(H2Lt-Bu] (H2Lt-Bu = 2,6-bis(5-tert-butyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine, 1) by elemental analysis, IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, and the mass spectrometry (MS) method ESI Q-TOF. For comparison reasons, we also studied ruthenium(iii) terpyridine complexes of the general formula [Ru(N-N-N)Cl3], where N-N-N = 4'-chloro-terpyridine (Cl-tpy; 2) or 4'-chlorophenyl-terpyridine (Cl-Ph-tpy; 3). A kinetic study of the substitution reactions of 1-3 with biomolecules showed that the rate constants depend on the properties of the spectator ligand and the nature of the entering nucleophile. The DNA/HSA binding study showed that in comparison to complex 1 (bis-pyrazolylpyridine), the other two (2 and 3) terpyridine complexes had a slightly better binding affinity to calf thymus DNA (CT DNA), while in the case of human serum albumin (HSA), complex 1 exhibited the strongest quenching ability. We demonstrated that 1 possesses significant in vitro cytotoxic activity against mouse colon carcinoma CT26 cells and in vivo antitumor activity in murine heterotopic colon carcinoma. Complex 1 induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptotic death in CT26 cells. Additionally, 1 showed antiproliferative activity, as evaluated by the detection of the expression levels of the Ki67 protein. Furthermore, the in vivo results showed that 1 reduced primary tumour growth and the number and growth of lung and liver metastases, significantly prolonging the treated mice's survival rate. This study highlighted that 1 does not show hepato- and nephrotoxicity. Our data demonstrated the considerable antitumor activity of the ruthenium(iii) pincer complex against CT26 tumour cells and implicated further investigations of its role as a potential chemotherapeutic agent for colon carcinoma.

Regulation of GTP biosynthesis.
    Advances in enzyme regulation, 1992, Volume: 32

    In the regulation of GTP biosynthesis, complex interactions are observed. A major factor is the behavior of the activity of IMPDH, the rate-limiting enzyme of de novo GTP biosynthesis, and the activity of GPRT, the salvage enzyme of guanylate production. The activities of GMP synthase, GMP kinase and nucleoside-diphosphate kinase are also relevant. In neoplastic transformation, the activities and amounts of all these biosynthetic enzymes are elevated as shown by kinetic assays and by immunotitration for IMPDH. In cancer cells, the up-regulation of guanylate biosynthesis is amplified by the concurrent decrease in activities of the catabolic enzymes, nucleotidase, nucleoside phosphorylase, and the rate-limiting purine catabolic enzyme, xanthine oxidase. The up-regulation of the capacity for GTP biosynthesis is also manifested in the stepped-up capacity of the overall pathways of de novo and salvage guanylate production. The linking with neoplasia is also seen in the elevation of the activities of IMPDH and GMP synthase and de novo and salvage pathways as the proliferative program is expressed as cancer cells enter log phase in tissue culture. The activity of GMP reductase showed no linkage with neoplastic or normal cell proliferation; however, in induced differentiation in HL-60 cells the activity increased concurrently with the decline in the activity of IMPDH. This reciprocal regulation of the two enzymes is observed in differentiation induced by retinoic acid, DMSO or TPA in HL-60 cells. In support of enzyme-pattern-targeted chemotherapy, evidence was provided for synergistic chemotherapy with tiazofurin (inhibitor of IMPDH) and hypoxanthine (competitive inhibitor of GPRT and guanine salvage activity) in patients and in tissue culture cell lines. These investigations should contribute to the clarification of the controlling factors of GMP biosynthesis, the role of the various enzymes, the behavior of GMP reductase in mammalian cells and the application of the approaches of enzyme-pattern-targeted chemotherapy in patients.

Nucleoside phosphotransferase activity of human colon carcinoma cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase.
    Archives of biochemistry and biophysics, 1991, Volume: 291, Issue:2

    A cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase, acting preferentially on IMP and GMP, has been isolated from human colon carcinoma extracts. This enzyme activity catalyzes also the transfer of the phosphate group of 5'-nucleoside monophosphates (mainly, 5'-IMP, 5'-GMP, and their deoxycounterparts) to nucleosides (preferentially inosine and deoxyinosine, but also nucleoside analogs, such as 8-azaguanosine and 2',3'-dideoxyinosine). It has been proposed that the enzyme mechanism involves the formation of a phosphorylated enzyme as an intermediate which can transfer the phosphate group either to water or to the nucleoside. The enzyme is activated by some effectors, such as ATP and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. Results indicate that the effect of these activators is mainly to favor the transfer of the phosphate of the phosphorylated intermediate to the nucleoside (i.e., the nucleoside phosphotransferase activity). This finding is in accordance with previous suggestions that cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase cannot be considered a pure catabolic enzyme.

Synthesis and biological properties of purine and pyrimidine 5'-deoxy-5'-(dihydroxyphosphinyl)-beta-D-ribofuranosyl analogues of AMP, GMP, IMP, and CMP.
    Journal of medicinal chemistry, 1989, Volume: 32, Issue:6

    Methyl 2,3-O-isopropylidene-D-ribofuranoside (1) was converted to 1-O-acetyl-5-bromo-5-deoxy-2,3-di-O-benzoyl-D-ribofuranose (6) in five steps with good yield. The Arbuzov condensation of compound 6 with triethyl phosphite resulted in the synthesis of 1-O-acetyl-2,3-di-O-benzoyl-5-deoxy-5-(diethoxyphosphinyl)-D-ribofuranos e (7). Compound 7 was used for direct glycosylation of both purine and pyrimidine bases. The glycosylation was accomplished with the dry silylated heterocyclic base in the presence of trimethylsilyl triflate. Deblocking of the glycosylation products gave exclusively the beta anomer of the 5'-phosphonate analogues of 9-[5'-deoxy-5'-(dihydroxyphosphinyl)-beta-D-ribofuranosyl]adenine (13), 9-[5'-deoxy-5'-(dihydroxyphosphinyl)-beta-D-ribofuranosyl]guanosin e (16), 9-[5'-deoxy-5'-(dihydroxyphosphinyl)-beta-D-ribofuranosyl]hypoxant hine (17), and 9-[5'-deoxy-5'-(dihydroxyphosphinyl)-beta-D-ribofuranosyl]cytosine (15), described here for the first time. The target compounds as well as their intermediates showed no in vitro antiviral or antitumor activity, although phosphorylation of 15 and 16 to di- and triphosphate analogues was demonstrated with use of isolated cellular enzymes.
