Aplysiatoxins一直以来被认为是一类有争议的海洋生物毒素,研究显示其具有PKC激酶激活作用,从而产生多种生物活性,促瘤、抗肿瘤及抗病毒等。本研究在采自中国南海的蓝藻Lyngbya sp.代谢物中首次发现了两个结构新颖的aplysiatoxins类似物,Neo-debromoaplysiatoxin A and B(化合物1-2)。 并运用现代波谱学手段,结合X-ray单晶衍射和ECD分子计算确定其平面及立体结构。研究人员使用钠离子通道(Nav1.5,Nav1.7,Nav1.8)和钾离子通道(hERG,Kv1.5,Kir2.1)对化合物1和2进行了活性筛选,结果显示化合物1和2只对钾离子通道Kv1.5有强烈抑制作用(IC50值分别为6.94±0.26 μM和0.30±0.05 μM)。

在PKC激酶激活实验中发现,化合物1和已知化合物debromoaplysiatoxin都能够促使PKC激酶磷酸化,而化合物2即使在10 μM的浓度下对PKCδ并没有显示任何激活作用。从结果推测,化合物2跟以往aplysiatoxins作为PKC激酶激活剂的调控机制不一样,是一种新型钾离子通道抑制剂,为今后研究aplysiatoxins作为PKC激酶激活剂来调控下游信号通路提供了不一样的思路。Kv1.5钾离子通道仅在人心房肌中表达,是一种房颤治疗的新靶点,特异性Kv1.5通道阻滞剂对心房具有高度选择性,不引发室性心律失常,极有可能成为未来心房颤动治疗的新型主导药物之一。

Effect of debromoaplysiatoxin, compounds 1 and 2 on phosphor-PKCδ expression in HepG2 cells. (A), (C), (E) Cells were treated with indicated concentration (0.5 µM, 5 µM, 10 µM) of debromoaplysiatoxin, compounds 1 and 2, PMA (0.1 µM) for 1 h and the expression of p-PKCδ protein was determined to use cell lysates by western blotting. The pictures of (B), (D) and (F) are the corresponding statistical data results.
