    Notes: Abstract Brush-border membrane vesicles were prepared from superficial rat renal cortex by a Mg2+-precipitation technique. The initial (20 s) [14C]glucose uptake rate from solutions containing 100 mmol/l Na (salt) was found to be dependent upon the anion composition of the medium; in comparison to gluconate-containing medium (0.46±0.05 nmol/mg protein), Cl− accelerated the initial rate to 1.47±0.21 nmol/mg protein (n=4 preparations, ± SEM). This enhancement was reduced by 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid (NPPB, 0.5 mmol/l), but was unaffected by 4,4′-diisothiocyanatostilbene 2,2′-disulphonate (DIDS, 0.5 mmol/l). When membrane vesicles were pre-equilibrated with 100 mmol/l K (salt) and 100 mmol/l mannitol and glucose uptake was measured from a solution containing 100 mmol/l Na gluconate and 100 mmol/l mannitol in the presence of 80 μmol/l valinomycin (to generate an outward K+ diffusion electrical p. d.), it was found that intravesicular KCl depressed the initial glucose uptake compared to K gluconate. NPPB (0.5 mmol/l) increased the initial glucose uptake with intravesicular KCl towards values seen in K gluconate vesicles. In conditions where the only driving force for glucose uptake was established by an inward anion gradient (Nao=Nai) it was found that inward Cl− gradients could drive uphill glucose transport and that this was sensitive to NPPB (0.5 mmol/l), but insensitive to DIDS. We conclude that a Cl− conductance co-exists with Na-cotransport in rat renal brush-border membrane vesicles prepared from superficial renal cortex and this may function to regulate the activity of electrogenic transport systems at this membrane.

    Notes: For structure-activity relationship studies, two series of epothilone A (1) analogues have been designed and synthesized, one containing an oxazole moiety instead of the thiazole heterocycle and the other containing a spirocyclopropane moiety in place of the gem-dimethyl group at position C-4 (4,4-ethano-epothilones). The olefin metathesis strategy in solution was utilized for the chemical synthesis of these compounds starting with key building blocks 7-9 for the oxazole series (compounds 2, 14-18, 21-26) and building blocks 8, 30, and 31 for the 4,4-ethano series (compounds 3,39-43, 46-51). The convergent strategy towards the designed epothilone A series involved a) an aldol condensation reaction, b) an esterification reaction, c) an olefin metathesis reaction catalyzed by [RuCl2(=CHPh)-(PCy3)2], and d) epoxidation of the macrocycle double bond.

    Notes: In order to probe structure-activity relationships in the epothilone area, two series of epothilone B analogues have been designed and synthesized. The first series containing an oxazole moiety in place of a thiazole on the side chain was constructed by utilizing key intermediates 7-9 or 10, 12, and 13 (Scheme 1), whereas the second series containing an ethano group instead of the gem-dimethyl group at position 4 was synthesized from fragments 42 and 43. A Yamaguchi-type macrolactonization reaction was used to construct the macrocycle from a secoacid, which was assembled, in both cases, by means of a) an aldol reaction, b) an Enders alkylation, and c) a Wittig-type reaction. This convergent strategy provided access to oxazole analogues 2,4,29-32 and 4,4-ethano derivatives 3,40,60-63 for biological studies.
