Methods for quantitative extraction and enrichment of digoxin-like immunoreactive substances (DLIS) from human cord blood plasma (CBP) using organic solvents combined with a solid state absorbent are presented. Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography is more suitable than sephadex G-25 for DLIS separation and purification from CBP extract. The elution pattern of sephadex LH-20 chromatography of deproteinized and desalted CBP shows two distinct DLIS peaks. The first peak coelutes with the steroids aldosterone, cortisol, progesterone, 17-OH-progesterone, testosterone and estradiol, while the second DLIS peak coelutes with dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S). The Na+,K(+)-ATPase inhibitory activity peak partially overlaps with the first DLIS peak. Coeluted steroids could account only partially for digoxin-like immunoreactivity in the first DLIS peak; however, they did not contribute to the Na+,K(+)-ATPase inhibitory activity, whereas the second DLIS peak could be ascribed to endogenous DHEA-S. 相似文献

Increasing evidence suggests that in experimental diabetes an impairment in Na+,K+-ATPase activity plays a central role in the pathophysiology of diabetic complications, while only a few data are available with regard to human subjects. We studied the erythrocyte membrane Na+,K+-ATPase activity and membrane fluidity in insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent diabetic subjects. A significant decrease in the enzyme activity and in fluorescence polarization values was found in both groups compared with normal subjects. Neither Na+,K+-ATPase activity nor membrane fluidity was found to be related to metabolic control, assessed by means of fasting blood glucose levels and HbA1c. On the contrary, a significant correlation was observed between Na+,K+-ATPase activity and membrane fluidity in both insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent diabetic subjects. The present work provides evidence that a reduction in the Na+,K+-ATPase activity is present in the plasma membranes of insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent diabetics. Furthermore, it suggests that the change in enzyme activity might be related to modifications in membrane fluidity. 相似文献

Na+/K+- and Ca2+-ATPase are the major ATP-dependent membrane-bound enzymes that regulate the cation transmembrane gradient which is altered both in red blood cell (RBC) senescence and in RBCs of diabetic patients. In an attempt to clarify the possible connection between diabetes mellitus and ageing, we investigated the relationship between RBC ATP content, Na+/K+-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase activities and ageing in healthy, insulin-dependent (IDDM) and non-insulin-dependent (NIDDM) subjects. A significant correlation was found (r = ?0.82; P < 0.001) between RBC ATP content and subject's age only in the control group. A significant reduction in Na+/K+-ATPase activity was observed in the older group (C2) of control subjects, in comparison with the younger (C1) one. In both IDDM and NIDDM subjects, the enzymatic activity was significantly decreased when compared with healthy subjects of similar age (P < 0.001). A significant negative correlation was found between age and enzymatic activity in healthy subjects (r = ?0.60; P < 0.001). No difference was observed in the RBC membrane Ca2+-ATPase activity between younger (C1) and older (C2) healthy subjects. Ca2+-ATPase activity was significantly increased both in IDDM patients compared with C1 (P < 0.001) and in NIDDM patients compared with C2 (P < 0.001). The present data indicate that ageing causes a reduction in the erythrocyte ATP content in both healthy and diabetic subjects. In diabetic patients Na+/K+-ATPase activity decreases independently of age. 相似文献

Colchiceine and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) are drugs currently in use as therapy for different types of liver damage. We evaluated their ability to reverse the damage induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4 ) in rats. Six groups were analysed: (1) CCl4 (0.4 g kg−1 , i.p., three times a week) for 13 weeks; (2) CCl4 for 8 weeks followed by colchiceine (60 μg kg−1 ) + CCl4 for 5 weeks; (3) CCl4 for 8 weeks and thereafter UDCA (25 mg kg−1 ) + CCl4 for 5 weeks. Groups 4, 5 and 6 were appropriate controls of colchiceine, UDCA and vehicles respectively. Na+ ,K+ - and Ca2+ -ATPase activities and the cholesterol–phospholipid (CH/PL) ratio from erythrocyte and hepatocyte membranes were quantified. Membrane enzymatic activities and CH/PL ratios were affected more in group 1 than groups 2 and 3. We concluded that colchiceine and UDCA were effective drugs in this model of liver damage. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity was evaluated in relation to membrane composition and molecular organization in erythrocyte membranes from obese patients by the amphyphylic molecule 6-dodecanoyl-2-dimethylamino-naphthalene (Laurdan). Its possible relationship with fat distribution and hyperinsulinaemia was also investigated. DESIGN: Subjects were 10 obese men (OM), 12 women with subcutaneous obesity (FSO), 10 women with abdominal obesity (FAO) and 41 healthy lean subjects, 26 women (FC) and 15 men (MC). An oral glucose tolerance test was administered to all subjects to evaluate insulin secretion and glucose tolerance. RESULTS: Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity was increased in all obese patients. Values were higher in FSO and FAO than in FC (with FAO greater than FSO) and in OM than in MC. The erythrocyte membrane cholesterol-to-phospholipid ratio was increased in obese patients and was significantly different in FSO patients compared with FC. The erythrocyte membrane protein-to-phospholipid ratio was also increased in all obese subjects, reaching statistical significance only in FSO vs. FC. The liquid crystalline phase, as tested by Laurdan generalized polarization (GP), was decreased in obese patients, indicating the presence of greater molecular environmental order; all patients groups showed lower GP values than control subjects, but only FAO reached statistical significance compared with FC. There was no evident correlation between membrane Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity and insulin levels, nor did membrane composition and properties show any evident relationship with insulin levels. CONCLUSION: Both increased Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity and altered fluidity and lipid composition were observed in the erythrocyte membrane of all obese patients. These findings are in line with previous observations by our group and indicate that the changes in Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity observed in obese patients could be related to changes in plasma membrane organization and composition. 相似文献

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is reported to be a potent pro-angiogenic factor that plays a pivotal role in both physiological and pathological angiogenesis. Royal jelly (RJ) is a honeybee product containing various proteins, sugars, lipids, vitamins and free amino acids. 10-Hydroxy-2-decenoic acid (10HDA), a major fatty acid component of RJ, is known to have various pharmacological effects; its antitumor activity being especially noteworthy. However, the mechanism underlying this effect is unclear. We examined the effect of 10HDA on VEGF-induced proliferation, migration and tube formation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Our findings showed that, 10HDA at 20 microM or more significantly inhibited such proliferation, migration and tube formation. Similarly, 10 microM GM6001, a matrix metalloprotease inhibitor, prevented VEGF-induced migration and tube formation. These findings indicate that 10HDA exerts an inhibitory effect on VEGF-induced angiogenesis, partly by inhibiting both cell proliferation and migration. Further experiments will be needed to clarify the detailed mechanism. 相似文献

Astilbin is a dihydroflavonol natural product isolated from a variety of food and medicinal herbs (e.g. Smilax glabra Roxb.), and its mechanism of action in vascular pharmacology remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the pro-angiogenic effects of astilbin and its putative mechanism of action. Briefly, our in vitro studies showed a dose-dependent ability of astilbin to increase the ability of HUVECs to proliferate and migrate, and undergo cell invasion and tube formation. Moreover, astilbin significantly increased the expression levels of several major proteins involved in the angiogenesis pathway, e.g. PI3K, Akt, p38 and ERK1/2. Our in vivo studies demonstrated the ability of astilbin to significantly restore the blood vessel loss induced by VRI in a VRI-induced vascular insufficiency zebrafish model. In conclusion, in this study we first demonstrate that astilbin exhibits pro-angiogenic activity in HUVECs and VRI-induced vascular insufficient zebrafish, possibly through the activation of the PI3K/Akt and MAPK/ERK dependent signaling pathways. These findings suggest that astilbin could be further developed as a potential agent in the prevention or treatment of insufficient angiogenesis related diseases in the future.Pro-angiogenic activity of astilbin on endothelial cells in vitro and zebrafish in vivo. 相似文献

Background WNK [With No K (lysine)] kinases are essential for regulation of blood pressure and potassium homeostasis. WNK4 expression was recently found not only in the distal nephron but also in chloride‐transporting epithelia. To establish a physiological role for this distribution we studied patients with familial hyperkalaemia and hypertension (FHH), [pseudohypoaldosteronism type II (PHAII)], which is caused by mutations in WNK4. Design Measurement of nasal potential difference (NPD) and sweat electrolytes were performed in controls, in six subjects with FHH and ten subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF). Results Basal NPD was higher in FHH compared with controls (n = 20): 22·8 ± 5·7 vs. 16·2 ± 5·3 mV, respectively (P = 0·014). Maximal response to amiloride was also higher in FHH compared with controls: 14·8 ± 3·5 vs. 10·0 ± 4·8 mV, respectively (P = 0·03). In CF these values were 42·9 ± 9·3 and 29·9 ± 7·4 mV, respectively. The kinetics of the amiloride effect were faster in FHH, and as first reported here also in CF, compared with controls. At 30 s, amiloride‐inhibitable residual PD in FHH was 50 ± 30 vs. 81 ± 9% in controls (P = 0·0003) and 56 ± 7% in CF. The response to chloride‐free and isoproterenol solutions, which determines chloride transport activity, was similar in FHH compared with controls [16·0 ± 8·6 vs. 10·4 ± 5·9 mV (P = 0·08)]. Sweat conductivity in FHH was 49·7 ± 7·3 vs. 38·2 ± 8·1 mmol (NaCl eq) L?1 in 16 controls (P = 0·007) and 94·0 ± 19·3 in CF. Conclusions Mutant WNK4 increases Na+ transport in airways, and therefore it is regulated by wild‐type WNK4. This may be caused by a regulation of ENaC or a K+ channel. 相似文献

Summary— The effects of tacrine and physostigmine on catecholamine secretion induced by veratridine and high K+ , and on voltage-dependent Na+ and Ca2+ currents, were investigated in guinea-pig adrenal chromaffin cells. In perfused adrenal glands, tacrine (100 μM) caused an inhibition of veratridine-induced catecholamine secretion, but physostigmine (100 μM) did not. In dispersed cells, both tacrine (1 μM-1 mM) and physostigmine (1 μM-1 mM) decreased catecholamine secretion induced by veratridine in a dose-dependent manner. The inhibitory effect of tacrine was much greater than that of physostigmine. Tacrine alone at a high concentration (such as 1 mM) caused a substantial increase in catecholamine secretion by itself and completely abolished the veratridine-induced secretory response in dispersed cells. High-concentration physostigmine showed a similar effect, but to a much lesser extent. The high K+ (46.2 mM)-evoked catecholamine secretion from dispersed cells was not affected by tacrine (1–100 μM) or physostigmine (1 μM-1 mM). In fura-2 loaded cells, tacrine (100 μM) almost abolished [Ca2+ ]i rise induced by veratridine, but only slightly reduced that evoked by high K+ . In voltage-clamped cells, tacrine (300 μM) depressed the voltage-dependent Na+ and Ca2+ currents by about 93% and 69%, and physostigmine (300 μM) depressed them by about 30% and 17%, respectively. These results suggest that tacrine decreases the veratridine-induced catecholamine secretion primarily by inhibiting the voltage-dependent Na+ channels rather than the Ca2+ channels. Physostigmine acts in a manner similar to tacrine, but its potency is much lower than that of tacrine. 相似文献
