  • The metabolism of CdR-2-$^14 C$ and UdR-2-$^14 C$ in mouse small intestine has been studied in connection with the effect of heat treatment on the enzymes concerned in vitro. CdR-2-$^14 C$ is deaminated reaidly by CdR-aminohydrolase at nucleoside level and then degraded into U by the action of nucleosidase which is quite resistant to cleave N-pentose bond of cytosine nucleosides, CdR and CR. High inactivation temperature of $80^\\circC$ was observed for CdR-aminohydrolase, while nucleosidase has an inactivation temperature of $60^\\circC$. CdR-aminohydrolases in various tissues of mouse were inactivated at $80^\\circC$, but not one in tissues of rabbit. It might be assumed that there are correlations between order specificity and inactivation temperature of the enzyme. A physiological significance of the appearance of CdR-aminohydrolase in differentiated tissues of mammals possibly be regarded as a main function in catabolic pathways.

  • In the preparation of acyclic thymidine nucleoside analogues, $K_2CO_3$(or NaH) treated thymine in DMSO was alkylated with .omega.-chloroalkyl nitrite (Cl-(CH_2)n-CN; n=1, 2, 3, 4) to provide an isomeric mixture of 1-(${\omega}$-cyanoalkyl)thymine (2a-d) and 1,3-bis(${\omega}$-cyanoalkyl)thymine in approximately 5:1 ratios. Reduction of the cyano function 2a-d with $NaBH_{4}/CoCl_{2}$ center dot$ 6H_{2}O$gave the corresponding 1-(${\omega}$aminoalkyl)thymine (3a-d). The newly formed primary amino function in 3a-d was directly reacted with 2-chloroethylisocyanate to afford the 1-[.omega.($N^{I}$-2-chloroethylureido) alkyl]thymine (4a-d) in good yields. Nitrosation of 1-[5-($ N^{I}-2$-chloroethylureido)pentyl] thymine (4d) with glacial acetic acid and dry $NaNO_{2}$-powder in anhydrous $CH_{2}Cl_{2}$gave two types of regioisomeric nitrosoureas, 1-[5-($N^{I}$--chloroethyl-$N^{I}$--nitrosoureido)pentylithymine (5d) and 1-[5-($N^{I}-2$-chloroethyl-N-nitrosoureido)pentyllthymine in approximately 5 :1 ratios. The in vitro cytotoxicity of the synthesized compounds (2a-d, 3a-d, 4a-d and 5a-d) against three cell lines (K-562, P-388 and FM-3A) are measured as $IC^{50}$ values. Compounds 3b and 4c showed moderate activities against all three cell lines, and all other compounds were found to be not active.

  • Various Benzylacyclouridine (BAU, HM-BAU, suc-BAU, BBAU, HMBBAU, suc-BBAU, and BBBAU) developed as specifc inhibitors of uridine phosphorylase (UrdPase), inhibit transport (zero-trans influx) of ridine (Urd) in human erythrocytes. The inhibition pattern of these compounds is competitive, though suc-BBAU and BBBAU show a slight noncompetivieness. The order of potency as an inhibitor of the nucleoside transport system is BBAU ${\sim}$ HM-BBAU ${\sim}$ suc-BBAU > BBBAU > BAU ${\sim}$ suc-BAU ${\sim}$ HM-BAU ($K_1$ values of 19, 23, 38, 112, 124, 174 and 176 ${\mu}M$, respectively). These data indicate that there is a differnece in potency of Urd transport inhibition between the analogs of BAU and BBAU. Further, the potency correlates with the hydrophobicity of the compound, but it has a limit in the size of $C_5$ substitution.
