Summary Ornithine aminotransferase (E.C. 2.6.1.13) from rat brain was purified 100-fold by ammonium sulphate fractionation, DEAE cellulose chromatography, calcium phosphate gel and alumina C gel. Pyridoxal phosphate was essential for maximum activity of the enzyme. The brain enzyme did not differ from liver and kidney enzymes in properties such as pH optimum, Km, substrate specificity and the inhibition by branched chain amino acids. Unlike rat liver enzyme, brain ornithine aminotransferase was able to catalyze the reaction between L-lysine and 2-oxoglutarate. Spermidine and spermine inhibited brain ornithine aminotransferase activity.Acknowledgments. D.R.D. is thankful to U.G.C., India, for the award of a fellowship under the special assistance programme.

Summary N-(5-Phosphopyridoxyl)-4-aminobutyric acid, a stable adduct of pyridoxal phosphate and 4-aminobutyric acid, has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of rat brain 4-aminobutyric acid aminotransferase (GABA-T) with a Ki of 1.4 M.Acknowledgments.

Summary Earlier studies indicate that -aminoadipate aminotransferase (AadAT) and kynurenine aminotransferase (KAT) activities from rat tissues are associated with a single protein. However, our recent studies indicate that AadAT activity from bovine liver and kidney is not associated with KAT activity. To test whether the lysine and tryptophan catabolism in bovine tissues differ from that in rat tissues, we compared the activities of enzymes involved in lysine and tryptophan pathways in rat and bovine tissues. The activities of lysine catabolizing enzymes such as AadAT, lysine -ketoglutarate reductase and saccharopine dehydrogenase in the bovine tissues were significantly lower than those found in rat tissues. The activities of tryptophan catabolizing enzymes such as KAT and kynurenine hydroxylase in the bovine tissues were negligible as compared to those in rat tissues. The results suggest that lysine is degraded via the saccharopine pathway in the livers and kidneys of both species but the metabolism of tryptophan in bovine tissues may be different from that in rat tissues.Acknowledgments.

Summary The heterocyclic amino acid, -(6-bromopyridin-3-yl)alanine [DL-a-amino--(6-bromopyridin-3-yl)propanoic acid], interferes with the morphological development of the cruciferArabidopsis thaliana when incorporated in the growth medium. It appears to overcome the normal apical dominance control mechanism within the seedling, producing multirather than single-stemmed plants. 相似文献

Résumé Administration parentérale de chlorure de lithium inhibe l'dème de la patte produit par l'injection locale de serotonine, histamine ou formol chez le rat normal mais non pas chez le rat surrénaléctomizé. Ces resultats suggerent que l'effect antiphlogistique du chlorure de lithium est du à une liberation de corticosteroïdes.

Summary The present study was designed to analyze the effects of a short term stress on the quantitative levels of alkaline phosphatase (AP), creatine phosphokinase (CK), aldolase (ALD), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and lactate dehydrogenase-1-isoenzyme (LDH 1) during 24 h after stress. For all the enzymes studied higher values for the activity were found due to stress in comparison to the activity level before the stress. The period during the 24 h after stress to reach maximum activity depends on the enzyme and in part on the sex of the animal. 相似文献

Summary The following aminoacids have been detected in the perilymph from horses by filter paper chromatography: aspartic acid, glutamic acid, phosphocolamine, glycine, serine, taurine, threonine, alanine, glutamine, lysine, arginine,-aminobutyric acid, proline, valine, leucine, tyrosine, phenylalanine, cystine.A comparative study of chromatograms obtained from blood, perilymph and liquor showed that the perilymph is much more similar to the blood than to the cerebrospinal fluid either for qualitative and for quantitative content in aminoacids. 相似文献

Summary It is well known that after exhausting muscle work glucose (or saccharose) leads to quick recovery in man. Experiments on rats have shown that in adult animals 50% of all creatine is present as creatine-phosphate (CP). In old animals above 22 months, only about 25% is present as CP. Diets with a 50% glucose content lead in old animals, in rest, to 50% CP in the muscle. Also after exhausting work on glucose diet the restitution is so complete that about 50% CP is present. The main reservoir of energy for the restitution of muscle, ADP ATP, comes from the breakdown of CP. The problem may be discussed whether high glucose diet may be damaging insulin production by exhaustion. 相似文献

In rabbits with chronic renal insufficiency the prothrombin index was increased by 25% and the alanine aminotransferase activity decreased by 20%; the results of other routine tests of hepatic function were not affected. The galactose elimination capacity was decreased by 12%, whereas the body clearance of antipyrine was unchanged. No change in hepatocytic structure was found. 相似文献

Summary Two closely related species of Gentianaceae were established in tissue culture and transferred to a regeneration medium containing 2,4-D. Even though the age of cultures and all the environmental conditions were identical, only one of them expressed a clear morphogenic potential, and the differences are expressive in the isozyme banding patterns observed for creatine phosphokinase, lactate dehydrogenase and indoleacetaldehyde dehydrogenase. No differences in alkaline phosphatase isozymes were detected.This work was supported in part by the National Science Foundation (No. DCB 8 611 889) USA with a grant to the senior author. 相似文献

Summary A dose of soy bean fat emulsion which was injected i.v. in suckling rats accumulated in the cells of liver parenchyma, both in hepatocytes and in reticuloendothelial cells. Subsequent i.p. injection ofE. coli endotoxin was followed by extensive liver tissue necrosis and increased activities of serum aspartic and alanine aminotransferase. These signs of liver damage were markedly more pronounced than those observed after the administration ofE. coli endotoxin only. 相似文献

Serum creatine phosphokinase (CK) and CK-MB activity were determined in 21 trained runners participating in a marathon race (42.2 km). Enzyme activities immediately after the race increased two to three times compared with activities before the race. The greatest increases were found in the slowest runners, suggesting greater skeletal muscular trauma in the least trained or fit. As these are likely to include the older athletes who are also more likely to suffer acute myocardial injury during strenuous exercise, our findings assume special import in the interpretation of increased CK and CK-MB serum activities of older athletes. 相似文献

Characterization of ovarian follicular fluids of sheep, pigs and cows using proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Proton NMR spectra were produced for Graafian follicular fluids obtained by aspiration from sheep, pig and cow ovaries. The following low molecular mass, non-protein-bound metabolites were detected at concentrations exceeding 0.1 mM: acetate, alanine, creatinine/creatine, glycine, D-3-hydroxybutyrate, lactate, valine. Glucose was difficult to quantify and N-acetyl sugars gave a broad resonance at 2.06 ppm, presumably representing side-chains of glycoproteins. Ethanol was detected at up to millimolar concentrations in some specimens, though the physiological significance of this finding was not clear. The concentrations of all metabolites were comparable to those of plasma. These results have therefore shown that NMR spectroscopy is useful for gaining a broad and semiquantitative impression of the more abundant metabolites in the fluids of preovulatory Graafian follicles. 相似文献
