Residuals in multiple regression analysis.

Abstract

An examination of residuals can be used as a technique to determine the best model for use in multiple-regression analysis. In addition to R2 and the Fisher F ratio, a complete analysis of residuals has been used by statisticians for many years to estimate bias and to choose the best equation to fit physicochemical as well as biological and psychosociological data. However, residual analysis has seldom appeared in studies in pharmaceutics, pharmacology, or medicinal chemistry. This report gives two examples to show the usefulness of residual analysis in the pharmaceutical sciences.

Substrate specificity and distribution of UDP-GalNAc:sialylparagloboside N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase in the human stomach.

The detailed substrate specificity of the UDP-GalNAc:sialylparagloboside N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase to form the Sd(a+) blood group active carbohydrate determinant GalNAc beta 1-4(NeuAc alpha 2-3)Gal was studied using a membrane fraction prepared from human gastric fundic mucosa. Various sialosylated oligosaccharides and gangliosides were examined as acceptor substrates. Oligosaccharide substrates were fluorescence-labelled with 2-aminopyridine, and the transferase activity was quantified by h.p.l.c. using a reversed-phase column. The structures of the products were determined by glycosidase degradation and proton n.m.r. 3'-Sialyl-lactose (II3NeuAcLac), 3'-sialyl-lactotetraose (IV3NeuAcLc4), and 3'-sialyl-lactoneotetraose (IV3NeuAcnLc4) were good substrates for the beta 1-4GalNAc transferase in gastric fundic mucosa, but 6'-sialyl-lactoneotetraose (IV6NeuAcnLc4) or 6'-sialyl-lactose (II6NeuAcLac) were not. Gangliosides with a terminal NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal residue such as GM3, sialylparagloboside, GM1b and GD1a were also studied. The activity of beta 1-4GalNAc transfer to sialylparagloboside was much higher than that to GM2, GM1b or GD1a in spite of them having the same terminal residue. Measurement of the activity of the beta 1-4GalNAc transferase in biopsy specimens demonstrated that the activity was localized in gastric fundic mucosa and was absent in pyloric mucosa, intestinal metaplasia and gastric cancer tissue. Thus the beta 1-4GalNAc transferase present specifically in fundic mucosa required a NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal residue connected to either type-1-chain or type-2-chain oligosaccharides. In glycolipids, the acceptor specificity was restricted to NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-4GlcNAc because the NeuAc alpha 2-3Gal beta 1-3GalNAc structure in ganglio-series glycolipids was not a good acceptor substrate.

Synthesis and evaluation of 2-pyridinone derivatives as HIV-1-specific reverse transcriptase inhibitors. 2. Analogues of 3-aminopyridin-2(1H)-one.

A series of nonnucleoside 3-aminopyridin-2(1H)-one derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for HIV-1 RT inhibitory properties. Several analogs proved to be potent and highly selective antagonists with in vitro IC50 values as low as 19 nM in the enzyme assay using rC.dG as template-primer. Two compounds from this series, 3-[[(4,7-dimethylbenzoxazol-2-yl)methyl]-amino]-5-ethyl-6-methy lpyridin-2(1H)-one (34, L-697,639) and the corresponding 4,7-dichloro analogue (37, L-697,661) inhibited the spread of HIV-1 IIIb infection by 95% in MT4 cell culture at concentrations of 25-50 nM and were selected for clinical trials as antiviral agents.

Influence of flupirtine, a novel nonopioid analgesic agent on somatosensory evoked potentials in rats.

The effect of flupirtine, a novel nonopioid analgesic, on somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) was investigated in anesthetized rats. Primary somatosensory potentials were evoked in the cerebral cortex by stimulation of the skin of the whiskery part of the face. Flupirtine injected i.p. dose-dependently prolonged the latency and reduced the amplitude of SEP with ID50-values of 5.4 mg/kg (2.6-9.3 mg/kg) and 7.9 mg/kg (3.9-13.8 mg/kg), respectively. This effect of flupirtine (10 mg/kg, i.p.) on the latency and the amplitude of SEP, did not change when naloxone (1 mg/kg, i.p.) was given before flupirtine. The results indicate that the analgesic flupirtine decreases the primary somatosensory evoked potential by diminishing the excitability of cortical neurons. Opioid mechanisms are not involved.
