The crystal structure of 1, C23H34O5·H2O, was determined by Synchrotron X-ray diffraction analysis due to small crystal size（0.14 mm × 0.04 mm × 0.01 mm）. The crystal belongs to monoclinic, space group P21, with a = 7.6624（15）, b= 13.460（3）, c = 10.370（2） A, b = 92.40（3）°, V = 1068.6（4）A^3, Z = 2, Mr = 406.50, Dx = 1.263 g/cm^3, λ（synchrotron） = 1.2399 A, μ（synchrotron 1.23990） = 0.333 cm^-1, F（000） = 550, S = 1.059, R = 0.0625 and wR = 0.1687 for 4247 unique reflections, of which 3687 were observed（I 〉 2σ（I））. The asymmetric unit contains one independent molecule of 1 and one water molecule which are connected through hydrogen bonds. The conformation of 1 in crystalline state is in good agreement with the solution structure in methanol as indicated by ^1H-NMR analysis. The absolute configuration of 1 could be assigned by referring to the known configuration of the lactone ring at C（17b）. In the solid state, intermolecular hydrogen bonds involving carbonyl group in the lactone moiety and the hydroxyl groups in the steroid moiety ester linked adjacent molecules into a three-dimensional network. Compound 1 showed significant inhibition on Na^＋/K^＋-ATPase with an IC50 of 2.46 mM, which is stronger thiocarbonylbufalin but weaker than a close analog digitoxigenin, suggesting that a lactone ring is important and the substitution of a hydroxyl group at C（1） is not favored for the inhibition of Na^＋/K^＋-ATPase.展开更多

The results showed that hemolymph osmotic pressure and Na+ concentration increased signifi- cantly (P<0.05), and the Na+-K+-ATPase activity of gills decreased significantly (P<0.05) when salinity increased from 0 to 16. The hemolymph osmotic pressure and Na+ concentration in each treatment group rose remarkably at 0.125 d or 0.25 d, while the Na+-K+-ATPase activity of gill reduced gradually with increased experiment time in 3 d. Then the three parameters remained at a constant level after 0.25 d, 0.125 d and 3 d, respectively, and higher hemolymph osmotic pressure, higher Na+ concentration and lower Na+-K+-ATPase activity of gill occurred at higher salinity. The effect of salinity change on protein concentration of hemolymph was indistinct (P>0.05); However, the protein concentration decreased gradually with the increase of salinity from 0.25 d to 1 d, and then tended to be stable from day 1 to day 15.展开更多
