Tyrosinase 저해활성화 반응에 대한 polyhydroxy 치환된 flavone 유도체(1-25) 중, hydroxyl-치환기($R_1-R_9$)들의 역할을 이해하기 위하여 Free-Wilson 분석과 tyrosinase (PDB ID: Deoxyform (2ZMX) 및 Oxy-form; 1WX2)의 활성화 지점에 대한 분자도킹이 연구되었다. Free-Wilson 분석으로부터 $R_1-R_9$ 치환기중에서 $R_1$=hydroxyl 치환기가 tyrosinase 저해활성에 가장 큰 영향을 미치고 있음을 알았다. 기질분자의 hydroxyl 치환기들과 tyrosinase의 반응점 내 아미노산 잔기들 사이의 수소결합들은 안정한 기질-수용체 착 화합물을 형성하는데 기여하였다. 특히, 수소결합성에 기초한 비경쟁적 저해활성화 반응은 기질분자의 hydroxyl 치환기들과 tyrosinase의 반응점 내 peroxide 산소원자(Per404) 사이의 수소결합을 경유하여 일어날 것임을 제안하였다.

토끼 골격근 小胞體의 ATPase 活性에 미치는 $Hg^{2+}, Cu^{2+}, Pb^{2+}, Cd^{2+}, Mn^{2+}$ 등 2價 陽이온을 영향을 비교 측정하였다. 이들 陽이온은 $Mn^{2+}$을 제외하고 모두 이 酵素의 活性을 阻害하였다. $Mn^{2+}$은 低濃度 (12.5-100 $\mu$M)에서는 오히여 活性을 증가시켰고, 그 보다 高濃度에서는 극히 약하게 阻害하였다. $Mn^{2+}$을 제외한 위의 2價 陽이온들의 阻害龍은 $Hg^2$가 가장 컸고 (阻害係數 Ki = 10$\mu$M), rm 다음이 $Cu^{2+}$ (Ki = 30$\mu$M), $Pb^{2+}$ (Ki = 120$\mu$M), $Cd^{2+}$ (Ki = 320$\mu$M)의 순이었다. 위의 4종의 陽이온들의 ATPase에 대한 阻害作用을 可逆的 非競爭的 阻害로 판정되었다.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of Samhwasan on the Na-K-ATPase activity of heart muscle. The Na-K-ATPase activity was prepared from rabbit heart ventricles. Samhwasan markedly inhibited the Na- K - ATPase activity in a dose-dependent manner with an estimated $I_{50}$ of 0.56%. Hill coefficient was 1.70, indicating that the enzyme has more than one binding site for the Samhwasan. Inhibition of enzyme activity by Samhwasan increased as pretreatment time was prolonged. Inhibition by the drug was not affected by a change in enzyme protein concentration. Kinetic studies of substrate activation of the enzyme indicated classical noncompetitive inhibition, showing significant reduction in Vmax without a change in Km value. Inhibitory effect by Samhwasan was not altered by changes in concentration of $Mg^{2+}$, $Na^+$ or $K^+$, dithiothreitol. a sulfhydryl reducing reagent, did not protect the inhibition of Na-K-ATPase activity by Samhwasan combination of Samhwasan and ouabain showed a cumulative inhibition fashion. These results suggest that Samhwasan inhibits Na-K-ATPase activity of heart ventricles with an unique binding site different from that of ATP, $Mg^{2+}$, $Na^+$ or $K^+$ and ouabain.

Using whole cell current- and voltage-clamp recording we investigated the characteristics and pharmacology of group I metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR)-mediated responses in rat medial vestibular nucleus (MVN) neurons. In current clamp conditions, activation of mGluR I by application of the group I mGluR agonist (R,S)-3,5-dihydroxyphenylglycine (DHPG) induced a direct excitation of MVN neurons that is characterized by depolarization and increased spontaneous firing frequency. To identify which of mGluR subtypes are responsible for the various actions of DHPG in MVN, we used two subtype-selective antagonists. (S)-(+)- alpha-amino-a-methylbenzeneacetic acid (LY367385) is a potent competitive antagonist that is selective for mGluR1, whereas 2-methyl-6-(phenylethynyl)-pyridine (MPEP) is a potent noncompetitive antagonist that is selective for mGluR5. In voltage clamp conditions, DHPG application increased the frequency of spontaneous and miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents (IPSCs) but had no effect on amplitude distributions. Antagonism of the DHPG-induced increase of miniature IPSCs required the blockade of both mGluR1 and mGluR5. DHPG application induced an inward current, which can be enhanced under depolarized conditions. DHPG-induced current was blocked by LY367385, but not by MPEP. Both LY367385 and MPEP antagonized the DHPG-induced suppression of the calcium activated potassium current ($I_{AHP}$). These data suggest that mGluR1 and mGluR5 have similar roles in the regulation of the excitability of MVN neurons, and show a little distinct. Furthermore, mGluR I, via pre- and postsynaptic actions, have the potential to modulate the functions of the MVN.
