Differential Peptide Multi-Macrocyclizations at the Surface of a Helical Foldamer Template.

ABSTRACT: Hybrid sequences comprising a peptide with several Cys residues and an aromatic foldamer helix with several chloroacetamide functions at its surface were synthesized. Such products may in principle form numerous macromulticyclic thioether products by intramolecularly combining all Cys residues and all chloroacetamide functions. However, we show that the reactive sites on the structurally defined helix can be placed at such locations that the peptide selectively stitches itself to form a series of different macrocycles within mostly one preferred product. Reactions were monitored by HPLC and products with two, three or four macrocycles were identified using LC-MS and NMR. The series of selective macrocyclizations define a sort of reaction trail where reaction sites otherwise identical are involved successively because of their precise positioning in space. The trails can be predicted to a large extent based on structural considerations and the assumption that smaller macrocycles form faster.

Project description:Numerous neurological disorders are associated with atrophy of mesiotemporal lobe structures, including the hippocampus (HP), amygdala (AM), and entorhinal cortex (EC). Accurate segmentation of these structures is, therefore, necessary for understanding the disease process and patient management. Recent multiple-template segmentation algorithms have shown excellent performance in HP segmentation. Purely surface-based methods precisely describe structural boundary but their performance likely depends on a large template library, as segmentation suffers when the boundaries of template and individual MRI are not well aligned while volume-based methods are less dependent. So far only few algorithms attempted segmentation of entire mesiotemporal structures including the parahippocampus. We compared performance of surface- and volume-based approaches in segmenting the three mesiotemporal structures and assess the effects of different environments (i.e., size of templates, under pathology). We also proposed an algorithm that combined surface- with volume-derived similarity measures for optimal template selection. To further improve the method, we introduced two new modules: (1) a non-linear registration that is driven by volume-based intensities and features sampled on deformable template surfaces; (2) a shape averaging based on regional weighting using multi-scale global-to-local icosahedron sampling. Compared to manual segmentations, our approach, namely HybridMulti showed high accuracy in 40 healthy controls (mean Dice index for HP/AM/EC = 89.7/89.3/82.9%) and 135 patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (88.7/89.0/82.6%). This accuracy was comparable across two different datasets of 1.5T and 3T MRI. It resulted in the best performance among tested multi-template methods that were either based on volume or surface data alone in terms of accuracy and sensitivity to detect atrophy related to epilepsy. Moreover, unlike purely surface-based multi-template segmentation, HybridMulti could maintain accurate performance even with a 50% template library size.
