Paragraph 0027; 0030, (2019/02/27)
The invention belongs to the field of fatty acid and synthetic fatty acid glycerides and relates to a high-selectivity synthesis method of long-chain fatty acid monoglyceride, in particular to a high-selectivity synthesis method of long-chain fatty acid and synthetic fatty acid glycerides. The method comprises the steps that tetraethyl silicate and glycerin are subjected to alcoholysis reaction, and part of glycerin is esterified to generate glyceryl silicate; then the glyceryl silicate is subjected to esterification reaction with fatty acid to generate fatty acid glyceride; finally the high activity (instability) of silicate ester is utilized to achieve hydrolysis under mild conditions to synthesize the synthetic fatty acid glyceride at high selectivity. A by-product is safe and harmlessSiO2. Accordingly, the product with high monoglyceride content is obtained by using a simple process under mild conditions.

Polyneuropathy, hearing loss, ataxia, retinitis pigmentosa, and cataract (PHARC) is a rare genetic human neurological disorder caused by null mutations to the Abhd12 gene, which encodes the integral membrane serine hydrolase enzyme ABHD12. Although the role that ABHD12 plays in PHARC is understood, the thorough biochemical characterization of ABHD12 is lacking. Here, we report the facile synthesis of mono-1-(fatty)acyl-glycerol lipids of varying chain lengths and unsaturation and use this lipid substrate library to biochemically characterize recombinant mammalian ABHD12. The substrate profiling study for ABHD12 suggested that this enzyme requires glycosylation for optimal activity and that it has a strong preference for very-long-chain lipid substrates. We further validated this substrate profile against brain membrane lysates generated from WT and ABHD12 knockout mice. Finally, using cellular organelle fractionation and immunofluorescence assays, we show that mammalian ABHD12 is enriched on the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, where most of the very-long-chain fatty acids are biosynthesized in cells. Taken together, our findings provide a biochemical explanation for why very-long-chain lipids (such as lysophosphatidylserine lipids) accumulate in the brains of ABHD12 knockout mice, which is a murine model of PHARC.

In the present work, monoacylglycerol derivatives, i.e., 1-monomyristin, 2-monomyristin, and 2-monopalmitin were successfully prepared from commercially available myristic acid and palmitic acid. The 1-monomyristin compound was prepared through a transesterification reaction between ethyl myristate and 1,2-O-isopropylidene glycerol, which was obtained from the protection of glycerol with acetone, then followed by deprotection using Amberlyst-15. On the other hand, 2-monoacylglycerol derivatives were prepared through enzymatic hydrolysis of triglycerides in the presence of Thermomyces lanuginosa lipase enzymes. The synthesized products were analyzed using fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometer, gas or liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS or LC-MS), and proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (1H- and13C-NMR) spectrometers. It was found that monomyristin showed high antibacterial and antifungal activities, while 2-monopalmitin did not show any activity at all. The 1-monomyristin compound showed higher antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and also higher antifungal activity against Candida albicans compared to the positive control. Meanwhile, 2-monomyristin showed high antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli. The effect of the acyl position and carbon chains towards antibacterial and antifungal activities was discussed.

The biocatalytic synthesis of monoacylglycerides (MAGs) was carried out by the direct esterification of fatty acids (i.e. capric, lauric, myristic, palmitic and oleic acids, respectively) with glycerol in different ionic liquids (ILs) based on cations with long alkyl side-chains (e.g. 1-hexadecyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide [C16mim][NTf2], 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate [C12mim][BF4], etc.). Although all ILs have been shown as suitable reaction media for Novozym 435-catalyzed esterification of glycerol with free fatty acids, a high selectivity of MAGs was only observed in the [C12mim][BF4] case (e.g. up to 100% selectivity and 100% yield for monolaurin). Furthermore, as these ILs are temperature switchable ionic liquid/solid phases that behave as sponge-like systems, a straightforward protocol for IL-free MAG recovery, based on iterative centrifugations at controlled temperature, has been developed.

The chemical synthesis of phosphorothioate/phosphodiester analogues of 2-methoxy-lysophosphatidylethanolamine has been described. For the preparation of phosphorothioate derivatives oxathiaphospholane approach has been employed. The phosphodiester compounds were prepared by OXONE oxidation of corresponding phosphorothioates. Each lysophospholipid analogue was synthesized as a series of four compounds, bearing different fatty acid residues both saturated (14:0, 16:0, 18:0) and unsaturated (18:1). The methylation of glycerol 2-hydroxyl function was applied in order to increase the stability of prepared analogues by preventing 1→2 acyl migration. The cytotoxicity of newly synthesized 2-methoxy-lysophosphatidylethanolamine derivatives was evaluated with resazurin-based method in prostate cancer PC3 cell line. The highest reduction of cell viability was noted for LPE analogues containing myristoyl acyl chain.

The chemical synthesis of phosphorothioate/phosphorodithioate analogues of 2-methoxy-lysophosphatidylcholine has been described. For the preparation of new sulfur derivatives of lysophosphatidylcholine both oxathiaphospholane and dithiaphospholane approaches have been employed. Each lysophospholipid analogue was synthesized as a series of five compounds, bearing different fatty acid residues both saturated (12:0, 14:0, 16:0, 18:0) and unsaturated (18:1). The methylation of glycerol 2-hydroxyl function was applied in order to increase the stability of prepared analogues by preventing 1→2 acyl migration. The cellular toxicity of newly synthesized 2-methoxy-lysophosphatidylcholine derivatives was measured using MTT viability assay and lactate dehydrogenase release method.

The chemical synthesis of five new metabolically stabilized 2-OMe-LPA analogues (1a-e) possessing different fatty acid residues has been performed by phosphorylation of corresponding 1-O-acyl-2-OMe-glycerols which were prepared by multistep process from racemic glycidol. The now analogues were subjected to biological characterization as autotaxin inhibitors using the FRET-based, synthetic ATX substrate FS-3. Among tested compounds 1-O-oleoyl-2-OMe-LPA (1e) appeared to be the most potent, showing ATX inhibitory activity similar to that of unmodified 1-O-oleoyl-LPA. Parallel testing showed, that similar trend was also observed for corresponding 1-O-acyl-2-OMe-phosphorothioates (2a-e, synthesized as described by us previously). 1-O-oleoyl-2-OMe-LPA (1e) was found to be resistant toward alkaline phosphatase as opposed to unmodified 1-O-oleoyl-LPA.

Glycerol-fatty acid esterification has been conducted with lipase from Penicillium camembertii lipase immobilized on epoxy SiO2-PVA in solvent-free media, with the major product being 1-monoglyceride, a useful food emulsifier. For a given set of initial conditions, the influence of reaction was measured in terms of product formation and selectivity using different fatty acids as acyl donors. Results were found to be relatively dependent of the chain length of the fatty acids, showing high specificity for both myristic and palmytic acids attaining final mixture that fulfills the requirements established by the World Health Organization to be used as food emulsifiers.

A complete methodology (including synthesis, purification and analysis) for the preparation of 1,3-DAG is described. For a successful synthesis project, the strengths and weaknesses of each particular process should be taken into account and measures taken to offset or balance potential weaknesses. To this end, we describe some of the challenges associated with: chemically and enzymatically catalyzed acylglycerol syntheses; recrystallization and flash chromatography for purification of partial acylglycerols; and thin-layer chromatography (TLC) separation of DAG. For this work, 1-MAG intermediates and subsequent diacid 1,3-DAG were prepared using non-enzymatic methods, whereas, monoacid 1,3-DAG were prepared by enzymatic methods. It was not always possible to obtain pure samples of target compounds-in recrystallizations this is due to solid solution formation and co-crystallization and in chromatographic separations it is due to co-elution of components with similar Rf. Furthermore, TLC Rf of DAG is determined by two main factors: acyl chain length and positional isomerism. Interestingly, while the role of positional isomerism is well-known, the role of acyl chain length in these separations has only recently come to light.

experimental part, p. 1008 - 1017 (2010/08/05)
The chemical synthesis of new sulfur analogues of lysophospholipids has been described, including phosphorothioate/phosphorodithioate derivatives of lysophosphatidic acids (LPA) and phosphorothioate/phosphorodithioate derivatives of cyclic phosphatidic acids (cPA). For the preparation of LPA and cPA derivatives both oxathiaphospholane and dithiaphospholane approaches have been employed. Each lysophospholipid analogue has been synthesized as a series of five compounds, bearing five different fatty acid residues, both saturated (12:0, 14:0, 16:0, 18:0) and unsaturated (18:1), in the form of ammonium salts. The phosphorodithioate analogues of LPA were obtained as triethylammonium salts, however these were not stable and decomposed when transformed into the ammonium salt by ion exchange in aqueous methanol solution. The new sulfur analogues of LPA and cPA may share interesting biological properties of their parent compounds, and previously synthesized derivatives may behave as regulators of many metabolic processes and hopefully show new biological activity.
