Abstract
Gastrointestinal motility (GI) disorder causes symptoms such as dyspepsia, abdominal distention, and constipation and severely affects quality of life. The calcium (Ca2+)-sensing receptor (CaSR) expressed in the digestive tract can be activated by amino acids and participates in GI motility regulation. This study is designed to explore the effect and underlying mechanism of CaSR agonist R568 on the small intestine motility of mice in vivo and ex vivo. R568 was given to male C57BL/6 mice by gavage or incubated with isolated jejunum and ileum segments to observe its effects on GI motility and the involved neurons, neurotransmitters and hormones were detected by fluorescence immunohistochemistry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. The in vivo results showed that the intestinal propulsive rate reduced in response to oral intake of R568. R568 treatment increased the numbers of nitric oxide synthase-positive neurons and nitric oxide release but decreased the choline acetyl transferase-positive neurons and acetylcholine release in the myenteric plexuses. R568 increased the secretion of cholecystokinin in the intestinal tissues and serum but had no effect on the secretion of glucagon like peptide-1. Ex vivo results showed that R568 inhibited the contractility of intestinal strips from the jejunum and ileum. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor L-nitroarginine methyl ester (L-NAME), M-receptor antagonist-atropine, and tetrodotoxin (TTX) failed to block the effect of R568. CaSR co-expressed with interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) in the myenteric plexus suggests the possibility that ICCs mediated the effect of R568. Our findings demonstrate that CaSR activation inhibited intestinal motility, and both the enteric nervous system and non-neural mechanism are involved in this process.

Abstract
Different from other epithelia, the intestinal epithelium has the complex task of providing a barrier impeding the entry of toxins, food antigens, and microbes, while at the same time allowing for the transfer of nutrients, electrolytes, water, and microbial metabolites. These molecules/organisms are transported either transcellularly, crossing the apical and basolateral membranes of enterocytes, or paracellularly, passing through the space between enterocytes. Accordingly, the intestinal epithelium can affect energy metabolism, fluid balance, as well as immune response and tolerance. To help accomplish these complex tasks, the intestinal epithelium has evolved many sensing receptor mechanisms. Yet, their roles and functions are only now beginning to be elucidated. This article explores one such sensing receptor mechanism, carried out by the extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). In addition to its established function as a nutrient sensor, coordinating food digestion, nutrient absorption, and regulating energy metabolism, we present evidence for the emerging role of CaSR in the control of intestinal fluid homeostasis and immune balance. An additional role in the modulation of the enteric nerve activity and motility is also discussed. Clearly, CaSR has profound effects on many aspects of intestinal function. Nevertheless, more work is needed to fully understand all functions of CaSR in the intestine, including detailed mechanisms of action and specific pathways involved. Considering the essential roles CaSR plays in gastrointestinal physiology and immunology, research may lead to a translational opportunity for the development of novel therapies that are based on CaSR's unique property of using simple nutrients such as calcium, polyamines, and certain amino acids/oligopeptides as activators. It is possible that, through targeting of intestinal CaSR with a combination of specific nutrients, oral solutions that are both inexpensive and practical may be developed to help in conditioning the gut microenvironment and in maintaining digestive health.

Abstract
PURPOSE A family of 17 new nucleophilic-polyamine and aminothiol structures was designed and synthesized to identify new topical or systemic radioprotectors with acceptable mammalian toxicity profiles. design elements included: (i) Length and charge of the DNA-interacting, alkylamine backbone, (ii) nucleophilicity of the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging group, and (iii) non-toxic drug concentration achievable in animal tissues. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mouse maximum tolerated doses (MTD) were determined by increasing intraperitoneal (IP) doses. To assess radioprotective efficacy, mice received IP 0.5 MTD doses prior to an LD95 radiation dose (8.63 Gy), and survival was monitored. Topically applied aminothiol was also scored for prevention of radiation-induced dermatitis (17.3 Gy to skin). RESULTS The most radioprotective aminothiols had 4-6 carbons and 1-2 amines, and unlike amifostine and its analogs, displayed a terminal thiol from an alkyl side chain that projected the thiol away from the DNA major groove into the environment surrounding the DNA. The five carbon, single thiol, alkylamine, PrC-210, conferred 100% survival to an otherwise 100% lethal dose of whole-body radiation and achieved 100% prevention of Grade 2-3 radiation dermatitis. By mass spectrometry analysis, the one aminothiol that was tested formed mixed disulfides with cysteine and glutathione. CONCLUSIONS Multiple, highly radioprotective, aminothiol structures, with acceptable systemic toxicities, were identified.

Abstract
N-alkylated polyamine analogues have potential as anticancer and antiparasitic drugs. However, their metabolism in the host has remained incompletely defined thus potentially limiting their utility. Here, we have studied the degradation of three different spermine analogues N,N'-bis-(3-ethylaminopropyl)butane-1,4-diamine (DESPM), N-(3-benzyl-aminopropyl)-N'-(3-ethylaminopropyl)butane-1,4-diamine (BnEtSPM) and N,N'-bis-(3-benzylaminopropyl)butane-1,4-diamine (DBSPM) and related mono-alkylated derivatives as substrates of recombinant human polyamine oxidase (APAO) and spermine oxidase (SMO). APAO and SMO metabolized DESPM to EtSPD [K(m(APAO)) = 10 microM, k(cat(APAO)) = 1.1 s(-1) and K(m(SMO)) = 28 microM, k(cat(SMO)) = 0.8 s(-1), respectively], metabolized BnEtSPM to EtSPD [K(m(APAO)) = 0.9 microM, k(cat(APAO)) = 1.1 s(-1) and K(m(SMO)) = 51 microM, k(cat(SMO)) = 0.4 s(-1), respectively], and metabolized DBSPM to BnSPD [K(m(APAO)) = 5.4 microM, k(cat(APAO)) = 2.0 s(-1) and K(m(SMO)) = 33 microM, k(cat(SMO)) = 0.3 s(-1), respectively]. Interestingly, mono-alkylated spermine derivatives were metabolized by APAO and SMO to SPD [EtSPM K(m(APAO)) = 16 microM, k(cat(APAO)) = 1.5 s(-1); K(m(SMO)) = 25 microM, k(cat(SMO)) = 8.2 s(-1); BnSPM K(m(APAO) )= 6.0 microM, k(cat(APAO)) = 2.8 s(-1); K(m(SMO)) = 19 muM, k(cat(SMO)) = 0.8 s(-1), respectively]. Surprisingly, EtSPD [K(m(APAO)) = 37 microM, k(cat(APAO)) = 0.1 s(-1); K(m(SMO)) = 48 microM, k(cat(SMO)) = 0.05 s(-1)] and BnSPD [K(m(APAO)) = 2.5 microM, k(cat(APAO)) = 3.5 s(-1); K(m(SMO)) = 60 microM, k(cat(SMO)) = 0.54 s(-1)] were metabolized to SPD by both the oxidases. Furthermore, we studied the degradation of DESPM, BnEtSPM or DBSPM in the DU145 prostate carcinoma cell line. The same major metabolites EtSPD and/or BnSPD were detected both in the culture medium and intracellularly after 48 h of culture. Moreover, EtSPM and BnSPM were detected from cell samples. Present data shows that inducible SMO parallel with APAO could play an important role in polyamine based drug action, i.e. degradation of parent drug and its metabolites, having significant impact on efficiency of these drugs, and hence for the development of novel N-alkylated polyamine analogues.

Abstract
A protocol for the rapid, automated synthesis of oligospermine-oligonucleotide sequences is described. To this end, a protected spermine phosphoramidite derivative was synthesized in six steps from spermine and used as the fifth synthon in an oligonucleotide synthesizer. Parameters were optimized to reach greater than 95% coupling yields. Cationic oligonucleotides show enhanced hybridization and strand invasion properties, and hence are an alternative to conventional oligonucleotides for molecular biology, diagnostic and potential therapeutic applications. A multi-gram-scale synthesis of the spermine phosphoramidite allowing several hundred coupling steps takes 2-3 weeks. Oligonucleotide synthesis and purification takes approximately 3 d.

Abstract
During the past 20 years, numerous derivatives and analogues of spermidine (Spd) and spermine (Spm) were synthesized with the aim to generate a new type of anticancer drug. The common denominator of most cytotoxic polyamine analogues is their lipophilicity, which is superior to that of the parent amines. The natural polyamines bind to polyanions and to proteins with anionic binding sites. Their hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity is balanced, allowing them to perform physiological functions by interacting with some of these anionic structures, without impairing the functionality of others. Because the attachment of lipophilic substituents to the polyamine backbone increases the binding energy, lipophilic polyamine derivatives affect secondary and tertiary structures of a larger number of macromolecules than do their natural counterparts. In addition, lipophilicity improves the blood-brain barrier transport and thus enhances CNS toxicity. Close structural analogues of spermidine and spermine mimic the natural polyamines in regulatory functions. The cytotoxic mechanisms of analogues with a less close structural resemblance to spermidine or spermine have not been completely clarified. The displacement of spermidine from functional binding sites and the consequent prevention of its physiological roles is a likely mechanism, but many others may play a role as well. Up to now, polyamine analogues were conceived without specific growth-related targets in mind. To develop therapeutically useful drugs, it will be imperative to identify specific targets and to design compounds that interact selectively with the target molecules. It will also be necessary to include, at an early state of the work, pharmacological and toxicological considerations, to avoid unproductive directions.

Abstract
PURPOSE We tested the polyamine analog SL-11093 (3,8,13,18-tetraaza-10,11-[(E)-1,2-cyclopropyl]eicosane tetrahydrochloride) as an effective chemotherapeutic agent against human prostate cancer grown in nude mice. METHODS NCr-nu mice grafted with DU-145 human prostate tumor cells were treated i.p. with SL-11093 at 50 mg/kg q1dx5 for either three or five cycles separated by intervals of about 10-15 days. RESULTS In treated animals, tumor growth remained arrested for up to 100 days with minimal animal weight loss. None of the animals died during the treatment and in one experiment two out of six animals showed no palpable tumor. SL-11093 was readily taken up by the tumors, where its levels remained elevated for about 48 h after the end of drug administration. In liver and in kidney, SL-11093 (a (alpha)N,(omega)N-bisethyl derivative) was oxidatively N-deethylated predominantly to its monoethyl and di-deethyl derivatives. In time, the monoethyl derivative was further dealkylated, with a loss of an aminobutyl chain to form an aminomethyl cyclopropyl derivative. In tumor (and in lung), N-dealkylation reactions were less evident. CONCLUSION SL-11093 is an effective chemotherapeutic agent against a human prostate tumor xenograft grown in nude mice. The drug accumulation and slow metabolism in tumor compared to other tissues would most likely reduce systemic toxicity of the drug and contribute to a larger therapeutic window for SL-11093 as compared to other cytotoxic polyamine analogs.
