All the compounds could undergo a ring contraction by the loss of an RCH = CH2 molecule to form 1-oxazirinyl-8-（oxazolin- 2-yl） anthracene ions, which could further lose an R radical, followed by the loss of oxazoline. These ions could also eliminate an R radical and subsequently undergo ring-contraction rearrangements to lose a CHCH2O fragraent and an epoxide molecule, respectively. The ions that are formed could further lose CHCH2O and CH2 = CH fragments. Several ring-contraction rearrangements of the oxazoline ring were observed under electron-impact ionization conditions.展开更多

The hormone profiles;Leydig cell morphological metrics;mRNA and protein levels;oxidative stress;and AKT,mTOR, ERK1/2, and GSK3β pathways were assessed.Results BBOP at 250 and/or 500 mg/kg bw per day decreased serum testosterone, luteinizing hormone, and follicle-stimulating hormone levels mg/kg bw per day(P < 0.05). BBOP at 500 mg/kg bw per day decreased Leydig cell number mg/kg bw per day and downregulated Cyp11a1, Insl3, Hsd11b1,and Dhh in the testes, and Lhb and Fshb mRNAs in the pituitary gland(P < 0.05). The malondialdehyde content in the testis significantly increased, while Sod1 and Sod2 mRNAs were markedly downregulated, by BBOP treatment at 250–500 mg/kg bw per day(P < 0.05). Furthermore, BBOP at 500mg/kg bw per day decreased AKT1/AKT2, mTOR, and ERK1/2 phosphorylation, and GSK3β and SIRT1levels mg/kg bw per day(P < 0.05). Finally, BBOP at 100 or 500 μmol/L induced ROS and apoptosis in Leydig cells after 24 h of treatment in vitro(P < 0.05).Conclusion BBOP delays puberty onset by increasing oxidative stress and apoptosis in Leydig cells in rats.The graphical abstract is available on the website www.besjournal.com.展开更多
