The effects of persimmon tannin on pathophysiological changes in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) were investigated. When the persimmon tannin was chronically ingested by SHRSP, the life span was significantly prolonged, yet the effect on blood pressure was slight. The incidences of brain hemorrhage and infarction were also significantly decreased by this treatment. To elucidate the mechanisms involved in these events, the effects of condensed tannins, including persimmon tannin, on free radicals and lipid peroxidation were examined in vitro. Using electron spin resonance analysis, we found that these tannins have a potent, concentration-dependent scavenging action toward active oxygen free radicals. These tannins strongly inhibited lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenates, in a concentration-dependent manner. Persimmon tannin inhibited lipid peroxidation similarly to (-)-epigallocatechin. Persimmon tannin was 20 times more effective than alpha-tocopherol in terms of the 50%-inhibitory concentration. The radical scavenging action and inhibition of lipid peroxidation by persimmon tannin may explain, in part, the prolongation of the life span of the SHRSP ingesting persimmon tannin. 相似文献

The amounts of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) of culture supernatants, cell surfaces as well as intracellular spaces of the mouse keratinocytes cultured in calcium-free medium or in the presence of low or high calcium concentration medium were tested using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results indicated that cultured keratinocytes could secrete tPA into extracellular space and respond to the addition of high calcium concentration with a time-dependent increase of tPA secretion, and the peak value of tPA secretion appeared after 24 h of keratinocytes culture. Furthermore, comparing the amount of tPA in culture supernatants with that in cell surfaces, it was found that after culture for 24 h, the secreted tPA could bind to the surfaces of the keratinocytes through the lysine sites within its molecule, and this process was enhanced by high calcium concentration. On the basis of these data we assumed that in mouse keratinocytes, tPA firstly secretes into extracellular space and then binds to the keratinocytes surface, and calcium regulates tPA secretion and its following binding to the surface of keratinocytes, which may correlate with the differentiation of keratinocytes. 相似文献

A rapid high‐performance liquid chromatographic method was developed and validated for determination of tetrahydropalmatine (THP), an active component of Rhizoma Corydalis, in rat plasma. The samples were prepared using protein precipitation and separated on an Agilent XDB‐C18 column (150 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) with the mobile phase consisting of methanol–0.1% phosphate acid solution, adjusted with triethylamine to pH 5.5 (65:35). Good linearity was found within 0.10–10.00 µg/mL of THP in rat plasma sample. The intra‐ and inter‐day precision values were less than 10%. The developed method was successfully applied to assess the pharmacokinetics of THP in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive rats. After oral administration of a single dose of THP (60 mg/kg), the maximum plasma concentrations were 6.15 ± 2.1 and 7.54 ± 2.9 µg/mL for normotensive rats and SHR, respectively. The mean values of AUC0–∞ of THP in SHR were 81.44 ± 45.0 µg h/mL, significantly higher (p < 0.05) than in normotensive rats (44.06 ± 19.6 µg h/mL). The t1/2 and MRT in SHR were much longer than that in healthy Sprague–Dawley rats, indicating slow elimination of THP in SHR. The results indicated that there are some differences in pharmacokinetics of THP in SHR and Sprague–Dawley rats and it is very important to investigate the pharmacokinetic properties of drugs in pathological conditions.

Nicardipine, a dihydropyridine type calcium channel blocker, was infused at two flow-rates into spontaneously hypertensive (SH) and control normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats (young, 6-week-old and adult, 23-week-old, n = 5) under pentobarbital anesthesia, to cause hypotension. Mean arterial blood pressure and the concentrations of plasma amino acids and norepinephrine (NE) were measured before infusion and at each step of the infusion. The reduction in blood pressure caused by nicardipine induced a decrease in plasma L-arginine concentration in both young and adult SH rats, this effect being larger in adult rats. There was no significant change in plasma levels of L-arginine in age-matched WKY rats. The concentration of other amino acids did not change in both rat strains. On the contrary, there was an increase in plasma NE concentration in both SH and WKY rats after infusion with nicardipine. Plasma L-arginine concentration showed a good inverse correlation with the logarithm of plasma NE concentration in SH and WKY rats and the correlation was expressed as Y = -alpha log(X) + m (Y, plasma L-arginine concentration (nmol/mL); X, plasma NE concentration (pmol/mL); alpha, a slope; and m, an intercept). alpha, 43.0 and 4.35 for 23-week-old SH and WKY rats, respectively, and 17.0 and 4.0 for 6-week-old SH and WKY rats, respectively. The present data together with previous data suggest a direct noradrenergic stimulation of the synthesis of nitric oxide (NO) from L-arginine. The findings also indicate an impairment of the L-arginine metabolism or pools in SH rats compared with WKY rats. The deficiency of L-arginine increases with the age of SH rats and could be related to the development and maintenance of hypertension due to inefficient production of NO. 相似文献

Using the cannula insertion method, we investigated vascular effects of 7-O-ethyl-fangchinoline (TJN-220) derived from tetrandrine in isolated and perfused common carotid arteries of Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). A single dose of TJN-220 caused a vasodilation in a dose-related manner in arteries preconstricted by phenylephrine. The vasodilation was not inhibited by propranolol, a potent beta-adrenoceptor antagonist. A potent alpha-antagonist bunazosin inhibited the vasoconstriction to norepinephrine while TJN-220 did not modify the norepinephrine-induced constriction, indicating TJN-220 had no alpha-blocking activity. A potent calcium entry blocker, diltiazem, markedly attenuated the KCl-induced vasoconstriction, and TJN-220 slightly but significantly attenuated the KCl-induced one in large doses. The vasodilation of TJN-220 was not abolished after removing the endothelium by an intraluminal administration of saponin, although the ACh-induced dilation was completely abolished by it. A comparison of vascular responses in WKY and SHR revealed no significant differences. From these results, it is concluded that 1) a new tetrandrine derivative, TJN-220 has relatively long-lasting vasorelaxant properties, 2) the dilatory effects might not be related to adrenergic, muscarinic or endothelium-dependent mechanisms, and 3) the effects might partially be due to calcium entry antagonistic properties. 相似文献

The diethylstilbestrol-related compounds 3,3'-dihydroxy-alpha, beta-diethyldiphenylethane (I), diethylstilbestrol (II) and hexestrol (III) showed hypotensive effects on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and antifungal activities against all Fusarium oxysporum sp. tested. As previously reported, I had strong hypotensive action on normotensive rats at the dose of 10 mg/kg, while II and III showed weak hypotensive effects on these rats at the same dose. In this work, all three compounds also had hypotensive actions on SHR at the same dose. I showed the strongest hypotensive effect (-80.0 +/- 5.0 mmHg, 10 mg/kg, i.v.) on both SHR and normotensive rats. The three compounds also had antifungal activities against five kinds of Fusarium oxysporum sp. tested. Especially, II strongly inhibited the growth of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. raphani IFO-9972 (minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC): 1.0 micrograms/ml). 相似文献

Two high-resolution tryptic maps have been developed for recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) that separate the expected 51 tryptic peptides. The trypsin digestion was performed after reduction and S-carboxymethylation of the protein. The high-performance liquid chromatographic separation of the tryptic peptides used a Nova-Pak C18 (5 microns) column with a mobile phase that contained 0.1% aqueous trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) or 50 mM sodium phosphate (pH 2.85) and a linear gradient of acetonitrile. A TFA solvent system was also used for re-purification and for characterization of the peptides isolated from the phosphate-based separation. All of the isolated peptides had compositions consistent with the sequence proposed for rt-PA. The identities of the glycopeptides were confirmed by lectin chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose. The mixture of tryptic peptides was also treated with endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H and peptide:N-glycosidase F to locate the position of either high mannose or complex oligosaccharides. These studies demonstrated that a high mannose oligosaccharide is attached to Asn-117 while complex carbohydrate side-chains are attached to Asn-184 and Asn-448. The residue Asn-184 is the site of optional glycosylation that results in the formation of two rt-PA variants that contain either two or three oligosaccharides. 相似文献

A rapid procedure is described for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the carbohydrate composition of glycoproteins by liquid chromatography with light-scattering detection. The analysis was carried out in three steps. First, the glycoprotein samples were purified by a two-step purification on a Sephadex G-25 column with a 90% yield. Second, the selectivity of the separation and the sensitivity of detection of monosaccharides, as methyl glycosides obtained by direct methanolysis of glycoproteins, were improved by modified simplex optimization of the methanolysis parameters (temperature, methanolic hydrochloric acid strength and reaction time) determined at 66 degrees C, 1.2 M and 8.1 h for alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (alpha-AGP) and 73 degrees C, 1.5 M and 12.5 h for tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). Finally, the method was applied to the determination of the carbohydrate moiety of the two N-glycosylated glycoproteins alpha-AGP and tPA. 相似文献

This paper reports the fractionation of recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) glycoforms, a complex mixture to demonstrate the high resolving power of capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and capillary isoelectric focusing (cIEF). rtPA is a glycoprotein with a complex carbohydrate structure. The electropherograms and IEF patterns have been discussed in light of the known carbohydrate structures of rtPA. rtPA was treated with neuraminidase which removes the sialic acids from the carbohydrate chains. The desialylated rtPA was analyzed by both CZE and IEF and the results were compared to those of untreated rtPA. The usefulness of CZE and cIEF in the characterization of glycoproteins proteins is also discussed. 相似文献

Scutellarein, the main metabolite of scutellarin in vivo, has relatively better solubility, bioavailability and bio-activity than scutellarin. However, compared with scutellarin, it is very difficult to obtain scutellarein from Nature. Therefore, the present study focused on establishing an efficient route for the synthesis of scutellarein by hydrolyzing scutellarin. Neurological deficit score and cerebral infarction volume with the administration of scutellarein were then used to compare its neuroprotective effects on focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in rats induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) with those of scutellarin. The results showed that scutellarein had better protective effect on focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion than scutellarin, which laid the foundation for further research and development of scutellarein as a promising candidate for ischemic cerebro-vascular disease. 相似文献

Metabonomics is a systematic approach to the study of in vivo metabolic profiles and therefore allows deep insight into and a better understanding of the pathogenesis of disease. To characterize the development of hypertension, a hypertensive animal model, the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR), and its normotensive control, the Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rat, were investigated and their blood plasma analyzed using the high-throughput metabolomic tool, gas chromatography/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC/TOFMS). A total of 187 peaks were quantitatively determined after deconvolution, and 78 of them were identified. Principal components analysis (PCA) and projection to latent structure partial least-squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) were used to process the GC/TOFMS data. The resulting mathematical models were further validated by cross-validation. Plasma compositional differences of many identified compounds showed hypertension-related variation between SHR and WKY rats, and age-related changes from 10 to 18 weeks for both the SHR and WKY rats. These compositional changes involved compounds such as hexadecanoic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid, stearic acid, 3-hydroxybutyric acid, citric acid, threonic acid, tyrosine, tryptophan, threonine, phenylalanine, serine, ornithine, methionine, 3-hydroxyproline, creatinine, erythrose, myo-inositol, D-methylglucopyranoside, tocopherol, sitosterol, and nonesterified cholesterol. Significantly elevated free fatty acids (FFA) were observed in SHR relative to those in WKY rats, and their levels increased as the SHR aged from 10 to 18 weeks. The close correlation between FFA and hypertension suggests that FFA are potential biomarker candidates for hypertension and they may play an important role in the development of hypertension in SHR. It is also indicated that GC/TOFMS-based metabonomics is a powerful approach to identifying potential biomarkers and investigating the pathological processes of hypertension and the physiological developments of aging.

Duzhong Jiangya Tablet (DJT) composed of Eucommia ulmoides Oliv. and several other traditional Chinese medicines is a Chinese herbal compound, which is clinically used to treat hypertension. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antihypertensive effect of DJT and amlodipine besylate (AB) on the synergistic treatment of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), and to explore its antihypertensive mechanism. The synergistic therapeutic effect of DJT in combination with AB on SHR was studied using two metabolomics methods based on mass spectrum (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance. Metabolomics analysis of plasma, urine, liver, and kidney and the combination of orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis was performed to expose potential biomarkers. Then, the overall metabolic characteristics and related abnormal metabolic pathways in hypertensive rats were constructed. Blood pressure measurements showed that DJT combined with AB has better effects in treating hypertension than it being alone. A total of 30 biomarkers were identified, indicating that hypertension disrupted the balance of multiple metabolic pathways in the body, and that combined administration restored metabolite levels better than their administration alone. The changes of biomarkers revealed the synergistic therapeutic mechanism of DJT combined with AB, which provided a reference for the combination of Chinese and Western medicines. 相似文献

The effect of clenbuterol on adrenal function in rats. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The use of anabolic agents is illegal in the European Community but the effect of these agents on animal welfare is not well documented. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the administration of anabolic agents, such as clenbuterol, causes stressful effects in rats, as reflected by the adrenal function. Anabolic doses of clenbuterol (1 mg kg-1, 99% purity) were administered orally by stomach tube daily for 45 d to female Long Evans rats (250-300 g, n = 50). Twenty-five animals were used as controls. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein in anaesthetised animals (ketamine and xylazine). At the end of the experiment, the animals were sacrificed and the adrenal glands were removed. Hormonal levels were measured by an enzyme immunoassay previously validated for this species. Hormonal levels of cortisol and corticosterone, and histopathological analysis, were used as indicators of the adrenal function. Increased corticosterone and cortisol secretion was found in the treated group (p < 0.001), both in adrenal homogenates and peripheral blood samples, compared with control animals. Higher relative adrenal gland weight (adrenal gland-to-body weight ratio) was also found in the treated group (p < 0.01). The major histopathological finding was the presence of hyperplasia in the adrenocortical cells. It was concluded that the administration of an anabolic dose of clenbuterol causes a hyperstimulation of adrenal gland secretion that could adversely affect animal welfare. 相似文献

The recently discovered serine protease called tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) enables efficient dissolution of blood clots. t-PA works by converting plasminogen into its active form, plasmin, dissolving the major component of blood clots, fibrin. The activation of plasminogen by t-PA is enhanced by the presence of fibrin, and this is probably due to the fact that both plasminogen and t-PA possess high affinity binding sites for fibrin. Besides fibrin, fibrin monomers and some fibrin(ogen) degradation products, certain synthetic polymers (for instance, poly-L-lysines) can provide the same stimulation of plasminogen activation. The recently developed high-performance monolithic-disk chromatography, HPMDC, could become the most convenient way to study biological pairs of interest. The inherent speed of HPMDC isolation facilitates the recovery of a biologically active product, since the exposure to putative denaturing influences, such as solvents or temperature, is reduced. The better mass transfer mechanism (convection rather than diffusion) allows to consider only the biospecific reaction as time limiting. The step-by-step modeling of hypothetical affinity pairs between t-PA and different types of oligo/polymer forms of linear and branched lysine derivatives obtained both by initiated polycondensation and solid-phase peptide synthesis using HPMDC seemed to be possible and a quite useful tool. The results of quantitative evaluation of such affinity interactions were compared with those established for natural affinity counterparts to t-PA (monoclonal antibodies, plasminogen, fibrinogen). The role of steric structure of lysine ligands was observed and analyzed. The results allowing to make the practical choice of affinity systems will be used for development of fast and efficient analytical and preparative methods for the downstream processes of recombinant production of this valuable enzyme. 相似文献
