- 8-THIABICYCLOOCTAN-3-ONE AS A BIOCHEMICAL TOOL IN THE STUDY OF TROPANE ALKALOID BIOSYNTHESIS
-
8-Thiabicyclooctan-3-one, the sulphur analogue (replacing the methylaza bridge) of tropinone, was fed to Datura stramonium transformed root cultures.The compound was metabolized to a large degree.Notable products included the reduction product, 8-thiabicyclooctan-3-ol, analogous to tropine, and also the derived 3-O-acetyl ester.In addition, tropane alkaloid synthesis was perturbed.Hyoscyamine levels, and in particular tropine and 3α-acetoxytropane levels, were reduced.Pseudotropine, on the other hand, was found to increase in concentration.It is concluded that 8-thiabicyclooctan-3-one may be a good biochemical tool in the study of tropane alkaloid biosynthesis.Key Word Index -Datura stramonium; Solanaceae; biosynthesis; inhibitor; tropanealkaloids; tropine; pseudotropine; 8-thiabicyclooctan-3-one

- Tropane alkaloid metabolism by Pseudomonas AT3 cell cultures: Interchange between the nortropine and norpseudotropine catabolic pathways
-
Selected strains of Pseudomonas bacteria can degrade tropane alkaloids to obtain both nitrogen and carbon for growth. In order to probe the mechanisms of the catabolic enzymes involved, the metabolic process responsible for the opening of the 8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ol ring of nortropane alkaloids has been explored. It is found that the bacteria contain considerable flexibility in their enzyme complement and can convert (3-endo)-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ol) (nortropine (2) to (3-exo)-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ol) (norpseudotropine). Both of these compounds can serve as substrates for the catalytic cascade. In order to establish the proportionation between direct and indirect pathways, metabolism has been probed by competitive substrate availability and by incorporation of stable heavy labels into substrate pools. The results indicate that, while norpseudotropine is almost entirely metabolized directly, nortropine is partitioned c. 4:1 between direct and indirect catabolism.

- INDOLE CARBOXAMIDES AS IKK2 INHIBITORS
-
The invention is directed to novel indole carboxamide compounds. Specifically, the invention is directed to compounds according to formula (I): wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, and m are as defined herein. The compounds of the invention are inhibitors of IKK2 and can be useful in the treatment of disorders associated with inappropriate IKK2 (also known as IKKβ) activity, such as rheumatoid arthritis, asthma, rhinitis, and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). Accordingly, the invention is further directed to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of the invention. The invention is still further directed to methods of inhibiting IKK2 activity and treatment of disorders associated therewith using a compound of the invention or a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of the invention.
