Resumo

The discovery and physico-chemical characterization of three novel and minor virginiamycin M1 analogs as potent gastrin antagonists from a culture of a strain of Streptomyces olivaceus are described. These analogs are L-156,586, L-156,587 and L-156,588. They are, respectively, 15-dihydro-13,14-anhydro-, 13,14-anhydro- and 13-desoxy-analogs of virginiamycin M1. We also chemically converted virginiamycin M1 (via L-156,587) to L-156,586 and its unnatural epimer, L-156,906. These analogs are competitive and selective antagonists of gastrin and brain cholecystokinin binding at nanomolar concentrations. These are the most potent gastrin/brain cholecystokinin antagonists from natural products. The same compounds showed poor Gram-positive antibiotic activity versus virginiamycin M1. Structurally related Gram-positive antibiotics, griseoviridin and madumycin I, were inactive in gastrin and brain cholecystokinin binding at up to 100 microM.
