Divergent roles for ferric ions in the biological activity of amidated and non-amidated gastrins
Authors: Pannequin J , Tantiongco JP , Kovac S , Shulkes A , Baldwin GS
Published: December 2004

Amidated forms of the peptide hormone gastrin act via the cholecystokinin-2 receptor to stimulate gastric acid secretion, whereas non-amidated forms stimulate colonic mucosal proliferation via a novel, as yet uncharacterised, receptor. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and fluorescence spectroscopic studies have revealed that glycine-extended gastrin17 bound two ferric ions, and that ferric ion binding was essential for biological activity. We have therefore investigated the role of ferric ions in the biological activity of amidated gastrin17. As with glycine-extended gastrin17, fluorescence quenching experiments indicated that Glu7 Ala and Glu8,9 Ala mutants of amidated gastrin17 each bound only one ferric ion. The affinity of the mutant peptides for the cholecystokinin-2 receptor on transfected COS-7 cells or on Tlymphoblastoid Jurkat cells, and their potency in stimulation of proliferation in Jurkat cells and inositol phosphate production in transfected COS-7 cells, were similar to the values obtained for amidated gastrin17. In addition, the iron chelator desferrioxamine did not significantly inhibit either binding of amidated gastrin17 to the cholecystokinin-2 receptor, or stimulation of inositol phosphate production by amidated gastrin17 in transfected COS-7 cells. We conclude that, in contrast to glycine-extended gastrin17, binding of ferric ions is not essential for the biological activity of amidated gastrin17. Our results support the concept of distinct modes of action for amidated and non-amidated gastrins, and raise the possibility of developing selective antagonists of the actions of non-amidated and amidated gastrins.

Published: December 2004

Few studies have comprehensively examined amphibian granular gland secretions for novel insulinotropic peptides. This study involved isolation and characterisation of biologically active peptides from the skin secretions of Rana palustris frogs. Crude secretions obtained by mild electrical stimulation from the dorsal skin surface were purified by reversed-phase HPLC on a semipreparative Vydac C18 column, yielding 80 fractions. These fractions were assayed for insulin-releasing activity using glucose-responsive BRIN-BD11 cells. Acute 20 min incubations were performed in Krebs Ringer bicarbonate buffer supplemented with 5.6 mmol/l glucose in the absence (control) and presence of various fractions. Fractions 29-54 and fractions 68-75 showed significant 2.0-6.5-fold increases in insulin-releasing activity (P<0.001). The fractions showing most prominent insulinotropic activity were further purified to single homogeneous peaks, which, on testing, evoked 1.5-2.8-fold increases in insulin release (P<0.001). The structures of the purified peptides were determined by mass spectrometry and N-terminal amino acid sequencing. Electrospray ionisation ion-trap mass spectrometry analysis revealed molecular masses of 2873.5-8560.4 Da. Sufficient material was isolated to determine the primary amino acid sequence of the 2873.5 Da peptide, revealing a 27 amino acid sequence, ALSILRGLEKLAKMGIALTNCKATKKC, repressing palustrin-1c. The database search for this peptide showed a 48% homology with brevinin-1, an antimicrobial peptide isolated from various Rana species, which itself stimulated insulin release from BRIN-BD11 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. In conclusion, the skin secretions of R. palustris frogs contain a novel class of peptides with insulin-releasing activity that merit further investigation.
The adaptive response of bone to mechanical loading in female transgenic mice is deficient in the absence of oestrogen receptor-alpha and -beta
Authors: Lee KC , Jessop H , Suswillo R , Zaman G , Lanyon LE
Published: December 2004

Postmenopausal osteoporosis represents a failure of the response by which bone cells adapt bone mass and architecture to be sufficiently strong to withstand loading without fracture. To address why this failure should be associated with oestrogen withdrawal, we investigated the ulna's adaptive response to mechanical loading in adult female mice lacking oestrogen receptor-alpha (ERalpha(-/-)), those lacking oestrogen receptor-beta (ERbeta(-/-)) and their wild-type littermates. In wild-type mice, short periods of physiologic cyclic compressive loading of the ulna in vivo over a 2-week period stimulates new bone formation. In ERalpha(-/-) and ERbeta(-/-) mice this osteogenic response was respectively threefold and twofold less (P<0.05). In vitro, primary cultures of osteoblast-like cells derived from these mice were subjected to a single short period of mechanical strain. Twenty-four hours after strain the number of wild-type cells was 61+/-25% higher than in unstrained controls (P<0.05), whereas in ERalpha(-/-) cells there was no strain-related increase in cell number. However, the strain-related response of ERalpha(-/-) cells could be partially rescued by transfection with functional human ERalpha (P<0.05). ERbeta(-/-) cells showed a 125+/-40% increase in cell number following strain. This was significantly greater than in wild types (P<0.05).These data support previous findings that functional ERalpha is required for the full osteogenic response to mechanical loading and particularly the stage of this response, which involves an increase in osteoblast number. ERbeta appears to depress the ERalpha-mediated strain-related increase in osteoblast number in vitro, but in female transgenic mice in vivo the constitutive absence of either ERalpha or ERbeta appears to diminish the osteogenic response to loading.

Published: December 2004

We studied leptin involvement in rabbit corpora lutea (CL) activity, and its post-transcriptional signalling pathway. The expression of leptin receptor (Ob-R) in rabbit ovary at day 9 of pseudopregnancy was evaluated by immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis. The specificity of the Ob-R receptor antibodies was characterised by immunoprecipitation and competition with blocking peptide. Day 9 CL were incubated in vitro with leptin alone or with inhibitors of PLC (phospholipase C), PLD (phospholipase D), AC (adenylate cyclase), JAK (janus kinase), MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) and both cAMP- and cGMP-specific PDE (phosphodiesterase). Prostaglandin F2α(PGF2α), PGE2 and progesterone levels were measured in the culture medium, while NOS (nitric oxide synthase) and cAMP- and cGMP- specific PDE activities were measured in CL tissue. Positive staining for Ob-R was found within the cytoplasm of large luteal cells of CL as well as in granulosa cells of follicles and oocytes. Immunoblots detected a band of about 99 kDa size in Ob-R immunoprecipitates from CL homogenates. This band was not detectable after pre-incubation of the primary antibody with the immunising leptin peptide. Leptin increased PGF2αand cAMP-specific PDE, decreased basal progesterone and did not affect PGE2 and NOS levels. Leptin used the JAK pathway in increasing PGF2α, and MAPK and cAMP-specific PDE in decreasing progesterone. This study supports a permissive luteolytic role for leptin in rabbit CL.

Published: December 2004

Several investigators have suggested that certain hydroxylated metabolites of 17β-estradiol (E2) are the proximate carcinogens that induce mammary carcinomas in estrogen-sensitive rodent models. The studies reported here were designed to examine the carcinogenic potential of different levels of E2 and the effects of genotoxic metabolites of E2 in an in vivo model sensitive to E2-induced mammary cancer. The potential induction of mammary tumors was determined in female ACI rats subcutaneously implanted with cholesterol pellets containing E2 (1, 2, or 3 mg), or 2-hydroxyestradiol (2-OH E2), 4-hydroxyestradiol (4-OH E2), 16α-hydroxyestradiol (16α-OH E2), or 4-hydoxyestrone (4-OH E1) (equimolar to 2 mg E2). Treatment with 1, 2, or 3 mg E2 resulted in the first appearance of a mammary tumor between 12 and 17 weeks, and a 50% incidence of mammary tumors was observed at 36, 19, and 18 weeks respectively. The final cumulative mammary tumor incidence in rats treated with 1, 2, or 3 mg E2 for 36 weeks was 50%, 73%, and 100% respectively. Treatment of rats with pellets containing 2-OH E2, 4-OH E2, 16α-OH E2, or 4-OH E1 did not induce any detectable mammary tumors. The serum levels of E2 in rats treated with a 1 or 3 mg E2 pellet for 12 weeks was increased 2- to 6-fold above control values (~30 pg/ml). Treatment of rats with E2 enhanced the hepatic microsomal metabolism of E2 to E1, but did not influence the 2- or 4-hydroxylation of E2. In summary, we observed a dose-dependent induction of mammary tumors in female ACI rats treated continuously with E2; however, under these conditions 2-OH E2, 4-OH E2, 16α-OH E2, and 4-OH E1 were inactive in inducing mammary tumors.
Prolegomena zum experimentellen Engineering des genetischen Codes durch Erweiterung seines Aminosäurerepertoires
Authors: Budisa Nediljko
Published: December 2004

Die Proteinsynthese und ihre Verbindung mit dem genetischen Code spielten lange Zeit eine zentrale Rolle in der Biologie. Der schnelle experimentelle Fortschritt führte im vergangenen Jahrzehnt zu einer nahezu kompletten Beschreibung dieser Prozesse. Weitere wichtige Experimente ergaben Hinweise dafür, dass die natürliche Protein‐Translationsmaschinerie neu programmiert werden kann, um viele nichtkanonische Aminosäuren genetisch zu codieren. Tatsächlich lassen die 20 kanonischen Aminosäuren, die im universellen genetischen Code verwendet werden, viele wünschenswerte Funktionalitäten vermissen, etwa Halogen‐, Keto‐, Cyan‐, Azido‐, Nitroso‐, Nitro‐ oder Silylgruppen sowie CC‐ oder CC‐Bindungen. Die Fähigkeit, genetisch eine derartige chemische Vielfalt zu codieren, wird uns ermöglichen, lebende Zellen wie Bakterien neu zu programmieren, sodass sie maßgeschneiderte Proteine mit vielseitigen Funktionen exprimieren. An der Schnittstelle von Biologie, Chemie und Physik entwickelt sich mit dem Engineering des genetischen Codes ein aufstrebendes Forschungsgebiet.

Cryostructuration of polymer systems. XXIV. Poly(vinyl alcohol) cryogels filled with particles of a strong anion exchanger: Properties of the composite materials and potential applications
Authors: Savina Irina N. , Hanora Amro , Plieva Fatima M. , Galaev Igor Y. , Mattiasson Bo , Lozinsky Vladimir I.
Published: December 2004

A composite material produced from a poly(vinyl alcohol) cryogel with entrapped particles of the strong anion‐exchange resin Amberlite is presented. The properties of the composite material depended strongly on whether the resin was used in OH− form or Cl− form. The ion‐exchange filler in OH− form caused both a significant reinforcement of the composite material and an increase in the gel fusion temperature. These effects were thought to be associated with the additional ionic bonding between the continuous and disperse phases. Beads 200–600 μm in size were prepared from the composite material and used in expanded‐bed ion‐exchange chromatography for the capture of the negatively charged solutes benzoate and lactate from the suspension of negatively charged cells. The plausibility of the approach has been demonstrated on model systems composed of yeast cells and benzoate and with a real fermentation broth produced after lactic acid fermentation. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Flow‐induced crystallization in the injection molding of polymers: A thermodynamic approach
Authors: Kim Kyuk Hyun , Isayev A. I. , Kwon Keehae
Published: December 2004

The prediction of the crystallinity and microstructure that develop in injection molding is very important for satisfying the required specifications of molded products. A novel approach to the numerical simulation of the skin‐layer thickness and crystallinity in moldings of semicrystalline polymers is proposed. The approach is based on the calculation of the entropy reduction in the oriented melt and the elevated equilibrium melting temperature by means of a nonlinear viscoelastic constitutive equation. The elevation of the equilibrium melting temperature that results from the entropy reduction between the oriented and unoriented melts is used to determine the occurrence of flow‐induced crystallization. The crystallization rate enhanced by the flow effect is obtained by the inclusion of the elevated equilibrium melting temperature in the modified Hoffman–Lauritzen equation. Injection‐molding experiments at various processing conditions were carried out on polypropylenes of various molecular weights. The thickness of the highly oriented skin layer and the crystallinity in the moldings were measured. The measured data for the microstructures in the moldings agree well with the simulated results. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 95: 502–523, 2005
Bioengineering functional copolymers: V. Synthesis, LCST, and thermal behavior of poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide‐co‐p‐vinylphenylboronic acid)
Authors: Çimen E. K. , Rzaev Zakir M. O. , Pişkin E.
Published: December 2004

New boron‐containing stimuli‐responsive (pH‐ and temperature‐sensitive) copolymers were synthesized and characterized. Structure and composition of copolymers were determined by FTIR and 1H‐NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis and titration (N and B contents for NIPA and VPBA unit, respectively). By DSC and XRD measurements, it is established that the synthesized copolymers have a semicrystalline structure due to formation of intra‐ and/or intermolecular H‐bonded supramolecular architecture. The copolymer composition–structure–property relationship indicates semicrystalline structure of copolymers with different compositions, degrees of crystallinity, and thermal and stimuli‐responsive behaviors depends on the content of boron‐containing monomer linkage. Results of DSC, DTA, and TGA analyses indicated that copolymers have Tg and Tm and high thermal stability. These water‐soluble and temperature‐ and pH‐sensitive amphiphilic copolymers can be used as polymeric carries for delivery of biological entities for diverse biomedical use, including boron neutron capture therapy. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Relationship between the morphological structure and mechanical properties of copper‐in‐hydrophilic polymer gradient composite films
Authors: Tang Jianguo , Che Yanke , Liu Haiyan , Wang Yao
Published: December 2004

This investigation was focused on the influence of polymer hydrophilicity on the morphological structure and mechanical properties of copper‐in‐polymer gradient composite films (CPGCFs). The ion motion and reduction in swelling cathode films under an electric field were the core of the gradient morphology formation of a metal region in the polymer matrix. The morphological study of CPGCFs revealed that the hydrophilicity of poly(vinyl alcohol) was helpful in forming a continuously deposited layer. The nanoclusters (40 nm) aligned into a branchlike form in the copper‐rich region in the poly(vinyl alcohol) matrix. On the basis of the fuzzy interface between the poly(vinyl alcohol) matrix and copper nanoclusters, a complex interaction between them was inferred. The reduced copper affected the mechanical properties of CPGCFs. The maximum load of CPGCFs could be enhanced by 25% to 167.0 N with optimal electrochemical reduction, but the elongation was depressed. An excess of reduced copper in the polymer matrix reduced both the strength and elongation of CPGCFs. The moduli of related samples showed trends similar to those of the strength. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 95: 539–545, 2005
Superabsorbent resin of acrylic acid/ammonium acrylate copolymers synthesized by ultraviolet photopolymerization
Authors: Weiqing Ruan , Jinliang Qiao , Yuli Huang , Aijie Niu
Published: December 2004

A new method of synthesizing a superabsorbent resin (SAR) from an acrylic acid/ammonium acrylate copolymer by direct UV photopolymerization was studied. The effects of the degree of neutralization of acrylic acid, the photoinitiators, the crosslinking agents, and the UV‐light exposure time on the water absorbency (Q) were investigated. The results showed that Q of an SAR based on Irgacure 1700 or Irgacure 1800 and Irgacure 651 was high, reaching about 1200 mL/g, but under the same conditions, Q was low for an SAR based on other photoinitiators. The UV absorption spectrum proved that the photoinitiators matched the UV light source. Among the crosslinking agents, N,N′‐methylene bisacrylamide was more efficient than the others at a small concentration and a high value of Q. 13C‐NMR spectrometry was used to identify the mechanism of the crosslinking reaction through the esterification of hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) and 2‐hydroxypropyl acrylate with carboxylic acid group in acrylic acid/ammonium acrylate copolymerization, but the efficiency of the crosslinking reaction by esterification was lower than that of the copolymerization of vinyl groups in the crosslinking agent. Q of the acrylic acid/ammonium acrylate copolymer for the SAR reached 1255 mL/g under certain conditions (degree of neutralization of acrylic acid = 75%, Irgacure 651 concentration = 0.2 wt %, [HEA] = 0.2 wt %, exposure time = 10 min). © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: December 2004

A bioequivalence study of two oral formulations of 100 mg atenolol was carried out in 24 healthy volunteers following a single dose, two‐sequence, cross‐over randomized design at the International Pharmaceutical Research Centre (IPRC), as a joint venture with Al‐Mowasah Hospital, Amman, Jordan. The two formulations were Tensotin (Julphar, UAE) as test and Tenormin (Zeneca, UK) as reference product. Both test and reference tablets were administered with 240 ml of water to each subject after an overnight fast on 2 treatment days separated by a 1 week washout period. After dosing, serial blood samples were collected for a period of 36 h. Whole blood was analysed for atenolol by a sensitive, reproducible and accurate HPLC method with fluorescence detection capable of detecting atenolol in the range of 20–1600 ng/ml with a limit of quantitation of 20 ng/ml. Various pharmacokinetic parameters including AUC0−t, AUC0−∝, Cmax, Tmax, T1/2 and λZ were determined from blood concentrations of both formulations and found to be in good agreement with reported values. AUC0−t, AUC0−∝, and Cmax were tested for bioequivalence after log‐transformation of data using ANOVA and 90% confidence interval and were found within the acceptable range of 80%–125%. Based on these statistical inferences, it was concluded that Tensotin is bioequivalent to Tenormin. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

This study reports the absorption, dose‐linearity and pharmacokinetics of a novel antiangiogenic agent KR‐31831 in rats after i.v. and oral administration at doses of 5, 10 and 25 mg/kg on both occasions. Concentrations of KR‐31831 were determined by a validated LC/MS/MS assay method. After i.v. injection, plasma concentration‐time profiles showed multi‐compartmental characteristics, and there were no significant differences in Cl (20.8–27.7 ml/min/kg) and dose‐normalized AUC (178.1–231 µg·min/ml based on the 5 mg/kg dose) as a function of dose. However, Vss was significantly increased at the 25 mg/kg dose (4931 ml/kg) compared with those (2288–2421 ml/kg) at lower doses. Subsequently, t1/2 was increased from 143–159 min at the lower doses to 304 min at the 25 mg/kg dose. The altered VSS was found to be a result of reduced plasma protein binding at relatively high concentrations. Following oral administration (doses 5–25 mg/kg), the absolute oral bioavailability ranged from 37.8% to 46.3%, and there were no significant alterations in dose‐normalized AUC, Tmax, Cmax and t1/2 as a function of dose. The extent of urinary excretion was low for both i.v. (0.35%–0.54%) and oral (0.13%–0.33%) doses. Further discussions on the chemical and microsomal stability were included. In conclusion, dose‐independent absorption kinetics were observed at oral doses from 5 to 25 mg/kg in rats. Orally administered KR‐31831 could be eliminated mainly by the liver metabolic pathway.

Depression of the melting temperature by moisture for α‐form crystallites in human hair keratin
Authors: Cao Jinan , Leroy Frédéric
Published: December 2004

DSC thermal analysis has been carried out for human hair samples with various moisture contents to investigate the melting temperature depression behavior of α‐form crystallites in human hair. This is achieved by adopting a novel technique using silicon oil as the thermal medium, which permits hair samples to retain a range of moisture contents in between completely dry and fully saturated. The results show that the melting temperature of the α‐form crystallites in human hair varies with moisture content from 205°C for dry hair to 155°C for the hair sample with moisture content of 23%. These experimental results are particularly useful for clarification of the conceptual ambiguities associated with the molecular properties of α‐helices and α‐form crystallites. Furthermore, the Flory–Huggins theory was employed to determine the water–helix interaction parameter (χ = 4.5) and the α‐form crystallinity of human hair (22%), a figure consistent with that obtained by the XRD method (21%). © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
