De mitochondriale calcium opname remmer [(OH2) (NH3)4(µ-O) Ru Ru (NH3)4(OH2)] Cl5 kan worden gesynthetiseerd uit [Ru (NH3)5Cl] Cl2, een bekende ruthenium(III) grondstof, zoals beschreven in deze procedure. De synthese van [Ru (NH3)5Cl] Cl2 wordt gemakkelijk bereikt met weinig moeite. Hydrateren na roeren RuCl3 voor 16u in hydrazine, de pH van de oplossing moet worden a...

Mitochondriale calcium is een belangrijke regulator voor een aantal processen die essentieel voor normale cel functie zijn, met inbegrip van energieproductie en apoptosis. 1 , 2 , 3 de mitochondriale calcium uniporter (MCU), een ion vervoerder eiwit dat zich op de innerlijke mitochondriale membraan bevindt, regelt de toestroom van calciumionen in de mitochondriën. 4 , 5 , 6 chemische inhibitoren van de MCU zijn waardevolle hulpmiddelen voor de voortzetting van de inspanningen om de functie en cellulaire rollen van dit vervoer eiwit en mitochondriale calcium te studeren. De samengestelde [(HCO2) (NH3)4(µ-O) Ru Ru (NH3)4(O2CH)]3 +, Ru360, is een van de enige bekende selectieve inhibitors voor het MCU met een gerapporteerde Kd waarde van 24 µM.7 ,8,9,10 dit complex een gemeenschappelijk onzuiverheid gevonden in commerciële formuleringen van ruthenium rood (RuRed), een triruthenium di-µ-oxo is hexacation van de formule [(NH3) overbrugd 5 Ru (µ-O) Ru (NH3)4(µ-O) Ru (NH3)5)]6 +, die ook is gebruikt als een calcium opname inhibitor. Hoewel Ru360 commercieel beschikbaar is, is het zeer duur. Bovendien, de synthese en de isolatie van de Ru360 wordt uitgedaagd door moeilijk zuiveringsprocedures en dubbelzinnige karakteriseringsmethoden.
Alternatieve procedures voor toegang tot een Ru360 analoge, [(OH2) (NH3)4(µ-O) Ru Ru (NH3)4(OH2)] Cl5hebben we onlangs gemeld. 11 deze stof remt de MCU met hoge affiniteit, vergelijkbaar met Ru360. In dit protocol beschrijven we onze meest effectieve synthese van dit samengestelde, die met [Ru (NH3)5Cl] Cl2 begint. Zuivering van het product met behulp van sterk zure kationenwisselingshars is gedetailleerd, samen met de gemeenschappelijke valkuilen voor deze procedure. Wij presenteren methoden voor karakterisering en evaluatie van samengestelde zuiverheid, en een eenvoudige benadering om te testen zijn werkzaamheid in het blokkeren van mitochondriale calcium opname af te bakenen.

synthesis and evaluation of a ruthenium-based mitochondrial calcium uptake inhibitor

We detail de synthese en de zuivering van een mitochondriale calcium opname inhibitor, [(OH2) (NH3)4(µ-O) Ru Ru (NH3)4(OH2)]5 +. De geoptimaliseerde synthese van dit samengestelde begint uit [Ru (NH3)5Cl] Cl2 in 1 M NH4OH in ongeopende verpakking, een groene oplossing oplevert. Zuivering wordt bereikt met catie-uitwisseling chromatografie. Deze compound is gekenmerkt en geverifieerd als puur door UV-vis en IR spectroscopie. De mitochondriale calcium opname remmende eigenschappen worden beoordeeld in permeabel HeLa cellen door fluorescentiespectroscopie.

Deze methode beschrijft een synthese van de mitochondriale calcium opname remmer [(OH2) (NH3)4(µ-O) Ru Ru (NH3)4(OH2)] Cl5 [Ru (NH3)5Cl] Cl2, vanaf een bekende ruthenium(III) grondstof. [Ru (NH3)5Cl] Cl-2 wordt gekenmerkt door IR spectroscopie, met vibrationele modi op 3200 cm-1, 1608 cm-1, 1298 cm-1en 798 cm-...
