Abstract
Doublecortin-like kinase 1 (DCLK) is a microtubule-associated serine/threonine kinase that is upregulated in a wide range of cancers and is believed to be related to tumour growth and development. Upregulated DCLK1 has been used to identify patients at high risk of cancer progression and tumours with chemotherapy-resistance. Moreover, DCLK1 has been identified as a cancer stem cell (CSC) biomarker in various cancers, which has received considerable attention recently. Herein, a series of DCLK1 inhibitors were prepared based on the previously reported XMD8-92 structure. Among all the synthesised compounds, D1, D2, D6, D7, D8, D12, D14, and D15 showed higher DCLK1 inhibitory activities (IC50 40-74 nM) than XMD8-92 (IC50 161 nM). Compounds D1 and D2 were selective DCLK1 inhibitors as they showed a rather weak inhibitory effect on LRRK2. The antiproliferative activities of these compounds were also preliminarily evaluated. The structure-activity relationship revealed by our compounds provides useful guidance for the further development of DCLK1 inhibitors.

Rapid preparation of the Amadori rearrangement product of glutamic acid - xylose through intermittent microwave heating and its browning formation potential in microwave thermal processing. Food Res Int 2024; 181:114075. [PMID: 38448093 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/08/2024]
Abstract
Directional and rapid formation of the Amadori rearrangement product (ARP) from the glutamic acid and xylose was achieved through intermittent microwave heating. The yield of ARP reached 58.09 % by subjecting the system to intermittent microwave heating at a power density of 10 W/g for 14 min. Dehydration rate and microwave effects were found to be key factors to optimize the conditions for directional and rapid preparation of the ARP. Through a comprehensive analysis of the ARP degradation and further browning under both conductive and microwave thermal processing, it was observed that microwave processing significantly accelerated the browning degree of systems, leading to a tenfold reduction in the heating time required for browning. This research presented a promising avenue for the development of novel and expedited methods for the production of ARP and highlighted the potential of ARP in enhancing color quality in fast-cooking applications utilizing microwave.

Abstract
Amadori rearrangement products (ARPs), as intermediates of the Maillard reaction (MR), are potential natural flavor additives but there is a lack of investigation especially in oligopeptide-ARPs. This study for the first time conducted a systematic analysis in comparing ARPs of glycine, diglycine, triglycine, and glucose to corresponding classic MR systems, including production, stability, and flavor analysis. The ARPs were effectively produced by prelyophilization with heating at 70 °C for 60 min and purified to 96% by a two-step purification method. Correlated with the stability order of amino compounds (glycine > diglycine > triglycine), the stability order of ARPs was Gly-ARP > Digly-ARP ≈ Trigly-ARP. In a negative correlation with heating temperature and time, ARPs were less stable than original amino compounds at high temperatures (100, 130, and 160 °C). ARPs exhibited better flavor formation ability in pyrazines and furans than MR systems, with similar flavor compositions but different preferences. Diglycine- and triglycine-ARPs exhibited better flavor formation efficiency than glycine-ARP. Heating temperature and time, initial pH, and carbon chain length were found to be the parameters that affect the stability and flavor formation of ARPs. This study suggested that ARPs, especially peptide-ARPs, have great potential for usage as food flavor additives in the future.

Abstract
Until now, no effective method has been found to monitor the Maillard reaction process for complex protein hydrolysates. Dynamic changes in the concentration of α-dicarbonyl compounds, fluorescence intensity, and browning degree were investigated during the Maillard reaction of corn protein hydrolysates. When the fluorescence intensity reached the peak, deoxyosones would continue to be increased by ARP's degradation. However, the reaction node with the highest fluorescence intensity coincided with the turning point of the browning reaction, and the subsequent browning rate remarkably increased. Therefore, the change in fluorescence intensity could be used to monitor the degradation of ARP and the formation of browning melanoidin at different stages of the Maillard reaction of complex systems, thus effectively indicating the process of the Maillard reaction. When Maillard reaction intermediates (MRIs) with maximum fluorescent compounds were heated, the most abundant pyrazines were subsequently achieved. However, furan compounds would be progressively increased during the thermal process of MRIs with continuously enhanced browning.
