9-(2-膦酰甲氧乙基)腺嘌呤及其位置异构体3-(2-膦酰甲氧乙基)腺嘌呤的合成和抗病毒活性研究

Phosphonylmethoxyethyl)adenine (1),PMEA,an acyclic nucleotide withbroad-spectrum antiviral activity was synthesized with some modifications of Holy's procedure.Simutaneously,an N-3 regioisomer(2)of PMEA and a by-preduct, formaldehyde di-[2-(9-adenyl)ethyl] acetal(7)were seperated by silica gel chromatography in the ratio of 50:10:1.Compound(2)and(7) are new compounds that we have not yet found in literatures. The structure of them weredetermined with ¹HNMR,2DNMR, MS and Spot test.Antiviral test showed that N-3 isomer(2)completely lost activity against both HIV-1 and HSV-1 in vitro. It seems that regiospecificity of theacyclic nucleotide structure is important for antiviral activity.

The Relationship of Secretin and Somatostatin Levels in Plasma to Glucose Administration and Acid Secretion during Fasting

The concentrations of secretin and somatostatin in plasma were measured in 10 healthy subjects during a 4-day fast. The fast induced increased concentrations of plasma secretin (from 1.2 +/- 0.5 to 9.5 +/- 2.3 pmol/l) and somatostatin (from 5.2 +/- 1.5 to 8.6 +/- 1.7 pmol/l). Gastric aspiration for 1 h suppressed the high concentrations of secretin by 46% and somatostatin by 27%. The intravenous infusion of glucose reduced the plasma secretin even further by 88%; the decrease in somatostatin was not statistically significant. The study shows that gastric aspiration and/or glucose infusion suppressed the high plasma concentration of secretin and that factors other than hyperchlorhydria must be involved in the hypersecretinemia seen during starvation. The elevated plasma somatostatin concentration seen during starvation may be a consequence of increased acid secretion.     

Quantitative liver function in patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with low-dose methotrexate: a longitudinal study

The objectives were to determine quantitative liver function prospectively in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treated with low-dose methotrexate (MTX), to search for risk factors for a loss of quantitative liver function and to assess the relationship between quantitative liver function and histological staging. A total of 117 patients with RA (ACR criteria, 85 women, mean age 59 yr) had measurements of galactose elimination capacity (GEC), aminopyrine breath test (ABT) and liver enzymes [aspartate amino transferase (AST), alanine amino transferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (AP), 7-glutamyl transferase (GGT), bile acids, bilirubin, albumin] before treatment with weekly i.m. MTX injections and every year thereafter. In 16 patients, liver biopsies were performed. Before the introduction of MTX, mean GEC was 6.6 mg/min/kg [5th to 95th percentile (5-95 PC) 5.1- 8.5; reference range 6.0-9.1] and mean ABT was 0.80% kg/mmol (5-95 PC 0.42-1.30: reference range 0.6-1.0). During treatment with MTX [mean weekly dose 11.8 mg (5-95 PC 5.4-20.2), mean observation period 3.8 yr (5-95 PC 0.4-6.9)], significant declines of GEC (-0.12 mg/min/kg per year. t = 3.30, P < 0.002) and ABT (-0.06% kg/mmol per year, t = 4.81, P < 0.001) were observed. Negative correlations were found between the annual change in GEC and GEC at baseline (Rs = -0.40, P < 0.0001), and the annual change in ABT and ABT at baseline (Rs = -0.43, P < 0.0001). No correlations were found between the annual change in GEC or ABT and weekly MTX dose, age or percentage of increased liver enzymes, and no effect of a history of alcohol consumption > 30 g/week became evident. Two patients with Roenigk grade III had impaired quantitative liver function, while 14 patients with Roenigk grades I and II exhibited a high variability of GEC and ABT from normal to abnormal values. The continuous declines in GEC and ABT observed deserve attention in patients with prolonged treatment. Patients with a low GEC or ABT at baseline seem not to be at increased risk for a further loss of quantitative liver function. An impaired GEC or ABT does not necessarily concur with hepatic fibrosis on histological examination.      

三七中人参三醇甙对羊心浦氏纤维动作电位及延迟整流钾电流的影响

三七中人参三醇甙(PTS)2.5μg/ml及5.0μg/ml均能明显延长羊心浦氏纤维动作电位时程(APD)包括APD₃₀,APD₅₀,APD₉₀,对动作电位幅度(APA)无明显影响。双微电极法电压钳实验证明,PTS能明显抑制羊心浦氏纤维延迟整流钾电流(I_x)的峰值,且此种抑制作用呈时间及剂量依赖性。揭示PTS通过阻滞延迟整流钾通道而延长APD。
