摘要
自 3'-叠氮-3'-脱氧胸苷(齐多夫定或 AZT)问世以来,抗逆转录病毒药物有了长足的进步。随后,又合成了多种其他核苷类药物。然而,这些药物往往与严重的不良反应以及主要影响线粒体的变性过程、疾病和综合征的发生或加重有关。在这项研究中,我们利用秀丽隐杆线虫研究了 AZT 和三种新的有机硒衍生物的毒性潜力,这些衍生物在糖环的 5' 位置上进行了修饰,取代了 5'-OH 基团,并在芳基硒醇分子上插入了一个中性、一个电子吸收基团和一个电子供体基团:5'-硒-(4-氯苯基)-3-(氨基)-胸苷(ASAT-4-Cl)、5'-硒-(苯基)-3-(氨基)-胸苷(ASAT-Ph)和 5'-硒-(4-甲氧基苯基)-3-(氨基)-胸苷(ASAT-4-OMe)。分析包括蠕虫存活率、行为参数、高分辨率呼吸测定法、柠檬酸合成酶活性和 ATP 水平。虽然所有化合物都对秀丽隐杆线虫有负面影响,但与 AZT 相比,ASAT-4-Cl 和 ASAT-Ph 的毒性较低,尤其是在线粒体活力和 ATP 生成方面。因此,必须对使用这些新化合物作为药理学干预措施开展更多研究。
Biosafety assessment of novel organoselenium zidovudine derivatives in the Caenorhabditis elegans model
Antiretrovirals have improved considerably since the introduction of 3′-azido-3′-deoxythymidine (zidovudine or AZT), a molecule with also anticancer effects. Subsequently, a variety of other nucleosides have been synthesized. However, these medications are often associated with serious adverse events and the onset or exacerbation of degenerative processes, diseases, and syndromes, affecting mainly the mitochondria. In this study, we used Caenorhabditis elegans to investigate the toxicity potential of AZT and three new organoselenium derivatives with modifications in the 5′ position of the sugar ring in place of the 5′-OH group, with the insertion of a neutral, an electron-withdrawing and an electron-donating group attached to the aryl selenol moiety: 5′-seleno-(4-chloro-phenyl)-3-(amino)-thymidine (ASAT-4-Cl), 5′-seleno-(phenyl)-3-(amino)-thymidine (ASAT-Ph), and 5′-seleno-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-(amino)- thymidine (ASAT-4-OMe). Analyzes included worm survival, behavior parameters, high-resolution respirometry, citrate synthase activity, and ATP levels. Although all compounds negatively affected C. elegans, ASAT-4-Cl and ASAT-Ph showed lower toxicity compared to AZT, especially in mitochondrial viability and ATP production. Therefore, more studies must be carried out on the use of these new compounds as pharmacological interventions.
期刊介绍:
Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology publishes original scientific research of relevance to animals or humans pertaining to the action of chemicals, drugs, or chemically-defined natural products.
Regular articles address mechanistic approaches to physiological, pharmacologic, biochemical, cellular, or molecular understanding of toxicologic/pathologic lesions and to methods used to describe these responses. Safety Science articles address outstanding state-of-the-art preclinical and human translational characterization of drug and chemical safety employing cutting-edge science. Highly significant Regulatory Safety Science articles will also be considered in this category. Papers concerned with alternatives to the use of experimental animals are encouraged.
Short articles report on high impact studies of broad interest to readers of TAAP that would benefit from rapid publication. These articles should contain no more than a combined total of four figures and tables. Authors should include in their cover letter the justification for consideration of their manuscript as a short article.
