Two (E)-pyridinyl-substituted flavanone derivatives were synthesized and UV irradiation of these compounds afforded a Z-enriched mixture. These products were tested for their ability to inhibit the cytochrome P450 aromatase. It was observed that the introduction of a pyridinylmethylene group at carbon 3 on flavanone nucleus led to a significant increase of aromatase inhibitory effect. Moreover, configuration had a substantial influence on the aromatase inhibitory activity since (E)-isomers were found to be more active than (Z)-isomers.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008861 Microsomes Artifactual vesicles formed from the endoplasmic reticulum when cells are disrupted. They are isolated by differential centrifugation and are composed of three structural features: rough vesicles, smooth vesicles, and ribosomes. Numerous enzyme activities are associated with the microsomal fraction. (Glick, Glossary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1990; from Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed) Microsome
D008958 Models, Molecular Models used experimentally or theoretically to study molecular shape, electronic properties, or interactions; includes analogous molecules, computer-generated graphics, and mechanical structures. Molecular Models,Model, Molecular,Molecular Model
D010920 Placenta A highly vascularized mammalian fetal-maternal organ and major site of transport of oxygen, nutrients, and fetal waste products. It includes a fetal portion (CHORIONIC VILLI) derived from TROPHOBLASTS and a maternal portion (DECIDUA) derived from the uterine ENDOMETRIUM. The placenta produces an array of steroid, protein and peptide hormones (PLACENTAL HORMONES). Placentoma, Normal,Placentome,Placentas,Placentomes
