Efflux of a number of important neurochemicals, including D-serine, L-serine, taurine, glutamate, and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), from mouse cortical brain slices housed in a 7 microL perfusion chamber was monitored using online microdialysis-CE (MD-CE). Analyte concentrations could be measured every 20-27 s using the MD-CE instrument. Stimulation with high potassium induced increased release of D-serine. Kainic acid (KA) induced D-serine release, but this release was not blocked by 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione, suggesting that alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid/KA receptors do not mediate D-serine release. Application of L-serine, the precursor of D-serine, resulted in increased extracellular D-serine concentrations. L-Cysteine also increased extracellular D-serine levels in a partially Na+-dependent manner. The observed effects upon application of L-serine and L-cysteine support the involvement of ASC neutral amino acid transporters in regulating the extracellular concentration of D-serine concentration through competitive inhibition of uptake or increased release through heteroexchange. 相似文献

In presence of an organic modifier (e.g. methanol), separation of amino acid enantiomers tagged with naphthalene-2,3-dicarboxaldehyde by beta-cyclodextrin modified micellar electrokinetic chromatography was dramatically improved. Coupled with laser-induced fluorescence detection, the method was well suited for analysis of D/L-amino acid enantiomers present in mass/volume-limited biological samples such as cell clusters. The five major ganglia dissected from the central nervous system of Aplysia californica, a widely used neuronal model, were analyzed to determine D- and L-aspartic acid enantiomers both free and bound in proteins/tissue matrix. The analyses revealed high levels of free D-aspartic acid ranging from 0.13 to 0.82 micromol/g wet tissue (or 6.0-21.2% of the total free aspartic acid) in all of the five ganglia. However, no D-aspartic acid was detected bound in protein/tissue matrix. The content of free D-aspartic acid in the liver tissue was also found below the detection limit of the method, which was 1 x 10(-8) M. 相似文献

(+)-18-crown-6 tetracarboxylic acid (18C6H4) has been used as a chiral selector for D/L-amino acids in HPLC, where L-isomer is usually eluted prior to D-isomer, except for the case of serine. To clarify why serine exhibits the reverse order for the elusion, the chiral interactions of D- and L-serines with (+)-18C6H4 were investigated by the X-ray single crystal analyses, together with the case of D- and L-glutamic acids, which exhibit the usual elution order in HPLC. The backbone structures (amino, Calpha-H and carboxyl groups) of these four amino acids showed the nearly same interaction with (+)-18C6H4 despite their different chirality. In contrast, the hydroxyl group of L-serine side chain formed a hydrogen bond with the carboxyl group of (+)-18C6H4, whereas such a interaction was not formed for the side chain of D-serine and D- and L-glutamic acids. Thus, it was shown that the exception of D/L-serine from the first elution rule of L-isomer in HPLC is due to the presence and absence of a hydrogen bond formation of its side chain OH group. 相似文献

D-Serine is a co-agonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor in glutamate neurotransmission and has been proposed as a potential therapeutic agent for schizophrenia. However, D-serine also acts as a nephrotoxic substance in rats at high doses. To investigate the pharmacokinetics and toxicokinetics of D-serine, a method for the stereoselective determination of serine enantiomers in rat plasma was developed using GC-MS with selected ion monitoring (GC-MS-SIM). DL-[(2)H(3)]Serine was used as an internal standard to account for losses associated with the extraction, derivatization and chromatography. Serine enantiomers were purified by cation-exchange chromatography using BondElut SCX cartridge and derivatized with HCl in methanol to form methyl ester followed by subsequent N,O-diacylation with optically active (+)-α-methoxy-α-trifluoromethylphenylacetyl chloride to form epimeric amide. Quantitation was performed by SIM of the molecular-related ions of the epimers in the chemical ionization mode. The intra- and inter-day reproducibility of the assay was less than 5% for D-serine and 3% for L-serine. The method was successively applied to study the pharmacokinetics of D-serine in rats. 相似文献

Both D- and L-serine in rat brain microdialysis sample were simultaneously determined by pre-column fluorescence derivatization with 4-fluoro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-F), separation of the derivatives on ODS column, TSKgel ODS-80TsQA, followed by Pirkle type chiral columns, Sumichiral OA-2500 (S), which gave a sufficient enantiomeric separation of NBD-D-serine and NBD-L-serine, and fluorimetric detection at a wavelength of 540 nm with an excitation wavelength of 470 nm. The peaks of NBD-D-serine and NBD-L-serine in the rat brain microdialysis sample were clearly found, and the validation study showed satisfactory results; the precision and accuracy were within 5.14 and 109%, respectively. Using the proposed HPLC method, the time-course profile of D-serine concentration in rat prefrontal cortex following intraperitoneal administration of D-serine was investigated. As a consequence, D-serine appeared to be rapidly distributed in the brain, and then decreased gradually with time in the extracellular fluid of the rat prefrontal cortex. The proposed HPLC method will be useful for in vivo studies on D-serine, which acts as a coagonist for N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, to the extracellular fluid of rat brain. 相似文献

A high-throughput method is described for the analysis of D-serine and other neurotransmitters in tissue homogenates. Analysis is performed by microdialysis-capillary electrophoresis (CE) with laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection in a sheath flow detection cell. Sample pretreatment is not required as microdialysis sampling excludes proteins and cell fragments. Primary amines are derivatized on-line with o-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) in the presence of beta-mercaptoethanol followed by on-line CE-LIF analysis. Under the separation conditions described here, D-serine is resolved from L-serine and other primary amines commonly found in biological samples. Each separation requires less than 22 s. Eliminating the need for sample pretreatment and performing the high-speed CE analysis on-line significantly reduces the time required for D-serine analysis when compared with traditional methods. This method has been used to quantify D-serine levels in larval tiger salamander retinal homogenates, as well as dopamine, gamma-amino-n-butyric acid (GABA), glutamate and L-aspartate. D-serine release from an intact retina was also detected. 相似文献

Separation of amino acid enantiomers and peptide isomers has been made possible through the use of Marfey's reagent and high-performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE). Samples of amino acids and peptides were first derivatized with Marfey's reagent and subsequently analyzed by HPCE. Different modes of separation were investigated including free solution and micellar electrokinetic chromatography. The use of micellar electrokinetic chromatography in combination with L- and D-Marfey's reagent offered unequivocal means to confirm the presence of D-amino acid in an unknown sample. This method is also particularly useful for the analysis of peptide isomers. 相似文献

Separation and partial characterization of Maillard reaction products by capillary zone electrophoresis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Capillary zone electrophoresis proved useful for separating small amounts of both charged and uncharged solutes that are otherwise difficult to analyse. A typical complex mixture that had previously resisted all analytical approaches, including reversed-phase separations, is the products arising from the reaction of free amino acids with aldehydic sugars (Maillard reaction products). By using capillary zone electrophoresis [untreated capillary 50 cm x 75 microns I.D., 18 kV, 0.02 mol/l phosphate buffer (pH 7.5)], a number of products resulting from the reaction of glucose or ribose with glycine, alanine and isoleucine were separated and partially characterized. They were separated (1) without derivatization (and profiles of compounds absorbing at 220 nm were obtained), (2) as phenylthiocarbamyl derivatives in a search for reactive amino groups and (3) after derivatzation with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine in a search for a method for compounds with a free aldehydic group. Phenylthiocarbamyl derivatives were separated in 0.005 mol/l borate buffer (pH 9.6) at 20 kV and 25 microA. Separation of 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones was effected by electrokinetic micellar chromatography in the same apparatus using a 50 cm x 75 microns I.D. capillary at 10 kV in 0.01 mol/l Na2HPO4-0.006 mol/l tetraborate, 0.050 mol/l with respect to sodium dodecyl sulphate. The results are compared with those given by high-performance liquid and thin-layer chromatography. 相似文献

The separation of 21 free amino acids as their isobutyl N(O,S)-pentafluorobenzoyl derivatives by capillary gas chromatography with electron-capture detection is described. This method has been successfully applied to routine analysis of most of these amino acids in brain tissue and urine. The amino acids are converted to their isobutyl N(O,S)-pentafluorobenzoyl derivatives by acid-catalysed esterification followed by aqueous extractive pentafluorobenzoylation. The 21 amino acids can be separated on a single capillary column in 21 min. The high sensitivity permits analysis in minute quantities of sample and the high stability permits the use of an automatic sample injector at ambient temperatures. Thus, over 50 samples can be readily analyzed in a single day. 相似文献

The release and content of the excitatory amino acid neurotransmitters glutamate and aspartate in rat striatum were determined by liquid chromatography/electrochemistry. This determination was based on precolumn off-line derivatization of the amino acids with o-phthaldialdehyde and 2-mercaptoethanol (OPT/2-MCE), and the adducts formed were separated under isocratic conditions and oxidized on a glassy carbon electrode at moderate potential (+0.6 V). The standard and the extracted glutamate when derivatized with OPT/2-MCE produced similar electrochemical and chromatographic characteristics. The detection limit of glutamate was 0.5 pmol. Depolarization induced by the high potassium medium (40 mmol/L) enhanced the release of glutamate and aspartate from superfused rat striatum, whereas the efflux of glutamine remained unchanged. Perfusion (for 60-70 min) removed 50-80% of the free amino acid content of striatal tissue. The method described here is useful in neurochemical investigations of the brain amino acid neurotransmitters. 相似文献

Fatty acids were analyzed by a new method which involved their isolation from hexane extracts of serum or brain tissue in aqueous potassium hydroxide (10 microliter) and methylation directly in this solution with methyl iodide. The resulting fatty acid methyl esters were partitioned into ethylene chloride (25 microliter) and were quantitated by gas-liquid chromatography. The procedure was documented by comparison with conventional methylation reactions on serum fatty acids. This method, which avoids thin-layer chromatography and which measures individual free fatty acid concentrations in 20-mg brain tissue samples, should be of particular value for examining regional free fatty acids in brain following ischemia and trauma. 相似文献

A method for the enantiomeric analysis of amino acids of mammalian tissues is described. An excellent resolution of D- and L-enantiomers of common protein amino acids was achieved by employing a combination of thin-layer chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography. D-Enantiomers and L-enantiomers of glutamate, aspartate, glutamine, asparagine, serine, threonine, alanine, proline, tyrosine, valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine, phenylalanine and histidine, as well as glycine were derivatized with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrophenyl-5-L-alanine amide. The amino acid diastereomers were separated by two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography. Each amino acid diastereomer was then analysed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography for the resolution of D- and L-enantiomers. Very sharp peaks were obtained using a conventional octadecylsilyl-bonded column, and the possibility of analysing these amino acids (except tyrosine and histidine) in subnanomole amounts was indicated. The method was used to demonstrate the presence of D-enantiomers of alanine, proline and serine in mouse kidney. 相似文献

Solvent extraction, a clean-up method for samples for the determination of amino acids by gas chromatography, was investigated and compared with a conventional ion-exchange purification. Amino acids were esterified with isopropanol and extracted with various organic solvents. The solubilities of the amino acid isopropyl esters increased with increasing solvent polarity and the size of the amino acids. The optimum pH was found to be 10.5. The method was applied to the estimation of ages by measurement of the D/L ratio of aspartic acid in human dentine. The D/L ratios so determined were slightly lower than from the ion-exchange method with respect to all dentines examined. However, there were little or no significant differences in the ages estimated by both methods, and the correlation coefficient of this method was 0.982. The method is suitable for the enantiomeric analysis of amino acids, and has several advantages in the technique and time. 相似文献

Separation of oligonucleotides on novel monolithic columns with ion-exchange functional surfaces. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Porous monolithic columns have been prepared by the direct free radical copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate and ethylene dimethacrylate within the confines of a 50x8 mm I.D. chromatographic column in the presence of porogens. The epoxide groups of these monoliths were modified to different extents by reaction with diethylamine to afford 1-N,N-diethylamino-2-hydroxypropyl functionalities useful for ion-exchange chromatography. Following characterization of the monoliths, the columns were tested in the chromatographic separation of a homologous series of oligodeoxyadenylic [pd(A)(12-18)] and oligothymidylic acids [d(pT)(12-24)] at different flow-rates. Very good separations of the oligonucleotides were achieved even at the high flow-rate of 4 ml/min. 相似文献

In order to comprehensively evaluate the aroma-active substances and taste components of durian, solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography mass spectrometry (SPME/GC-MS), high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD) and ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) were used to test the key components of three popular durian cultivars. A total of 27 volatile compounds, 5 sugars, 27 organic acids and 19 free amino acids were detected in Black Thorn (BT) durian. A total of 38 volatile compounds, 4 sugars, 27 organic acids and 19 free amino acids were detected in Monthong (MT) durian. A total of 36 volatile compounds, 4 sugars, 27 organic acids and 20 free amino acids were detected in Musang King (MK) durian. Finally, the flavor differences of the three durians were evaluated using electronic nose (e-nose) and electronic tongue (e-tongue), and different cultivars were classified through principal component analysis (PCA). 相似文献

Abstract A mixture of more than ten acidic or highly ionized ninhydrin-positive compounds of mouse brain extracts, occurring in ion-exchange chromatography from the beginning up to aspartic acid, was analyzed using ion-exchange and thin-layer chromatography standardized with known substances. These formed four peak groups in the chromatogram of an automatic amino acid analyzer. The first group contained cysteic acid, cysteine-sulfinic acid and phosphoserine, which could be separated from each others only by thin-layer chromatography. Only phosphoserine could be identified in the brain extract (about 0.14 mmol/kg brain wet weight), however. Taurine (4.1 mmol/kg) and phosphoethanolamine (1.05 mmol/kg) in the second group could be satisfactorily separated from each others after the hydrolysis of glycerylphosphoethanolamine (about 0.6 mmol/kg) and certain acidic peptides with 6 mol/1 HCl. Hypotaurine (0.03 mmol/kg) and urea (6.6 mmol/kg) were completely overlapped in the third peak, but urea was decomposed in the hydrolysis with 6 mol/1 HCl. The fourth group consisted of aspartic acid (2.1 mmol/kg). A number of low-molecular weight peptides also appeared in the chromatograms, above all in the phosphoserine and taurine peaks, but they were eliminated by the hydrolysis. They contained, however, some of the above-mentioned critical amino acids (phosphoserine, taurine and aspartic acid). 相似文献

The interaction of radiocobalt with glycine, alanine or aspartic acid dissolved in seawater was investigated by means of adsorption on Chelex 100, solvent extraction with dithizone or gel filtration chromatography. Although the distribution coefficients of Co on Chelex 100 decreased gradually with ageing even in the absence of organic matter, much more decreases were observed in the presence of the amino acids. The distribution coefficients on the resin reached equilibrium states in about 20 days. The extraction of cobalt with dithizone in carbon tetrachloride was also inhibited in the presence of the amino acids. Alanine and aspartic acid showed a similar interfering tendency in both adsorption on Chelex 100 and dithizone extraction, while glycine inhibited dithizone extraction more than adsorption on Chelex 100. From the fractionation of Co by Sephadex G-10 gel filtration chromatography, the higher molecular species of Co associated with the amino acids occurred after several days ageing and then increased together with decreasing in the lower molecular species. 相似文献

D-amino acids were determined in brain, body fluids (urine, blood coagulate, serum, plasma) and faeces of animals belonging to nine out of 11 taxonomic orders of vertebrates (Artiodactyla, Aves, Carnivora, Lagomorpha, Marsupalia, Osteichthyes, Primates, Rodentia, Tubilidentata). Free amino acids were isolated by means of cation exchangers and converted into volatile N(O)-perfluoroacylamino acid propyl esters. Derivatives of amino acids were separated into D- and L-enantiomers using Chirasil-L-Val capillary columns and detected by selected ion monitoring mass spectrometry. Quantification of amino acids was achieved by comparison of analytes with amino acid standards using L-norleucine as internal standard. Large relative amounts of D-serine were determined in brains of mammals but not of birds. In body fluids the D-enantiomers of most proteinogenic L-amino acids were detected, largest absolute and relative amounts were found in urine. Therein quantities of D-Ala and D-Ser exceeded 50% relative to the L-enantiomers in many instances. Feeding animals with diet fortified with DL-Met resulted in excretion of almost racemic Met in urine. D-Amino acids were also abundant in faeces of rodents. The data confirm that d-amino acids are common in body fluids and certain tissues of vertebrates. 相似文献
