CD38 is a type II glycoprotein that catalyzes the formation of cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), an intracellular calcium signalling molecule, from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Using a modified version of the fluorimetric cycling assay for cADPR which reduces between-subject variability, we report significant decreases in brain and lung cADPR, which although similar to previously published values, showed much less individual variation. The reduced variation within each group suggests that the range of cADPR is narrower than previously thought, and that the regulatory mechanisms controlling these levels are more finely tuned. We also report significant increases in brain, lung, and kidney NAD+ in the Cd38−/− mouse, and provide the first experimental demonstration of the proximate relationship between CD38 and NAD+. 相似文献

NAD+ levels in resting human lymphocytes obtained from 20 donors were found to be 69.9 ± 21.7 pmols/106 cells. After 3 days of phytohemagglutinin (PHA) stimulation the NAD+ levels rose to 452 ± 198 pmols/106 cells. NADH, NADP+ and NADPH also increased in mitogen-stimulated lymphocytes, but the major portion of the increase in total pyridine nucleotide pools was accounted for by the increase in NAD+. When PHA-stimulated lymphocytes were incubated in nicotinamide-deficient growth medium, there was no significant increase in their total pyridine nucleotide pools; however, the ratios of oxidized to reduced pyridine nucleotides changed in a similar fashion to cells grown in medium containing nicotinamide. When lymphocytes in nicotinamide-deficient medium were stimulated with PHA they increased their levels of DNA synthesis and cell replication in a similar fashion to cells growing in nicotinamide-supplemented media. Human lymphocytes were able to synthesize pyridine nucleotides from nicotinamide or nicotinic acid; however, in the absence of a preformed pyridine ring they did not efficiently use tryptophan for the synthesis of NAD. Uptake of [carbonyl-14C]nicotinamide and conversion to NAD was markedly increased in PHA-stimulated lymphocytes; these cells also showed a marked increase in activity of the enzyme adenosine-triphosphate-nicotinamide mononucleotide (ATP-NMN) adenylyl transferase. 相似文献

Ca2+ uptake and the effect of the uptake inhibitors palmitoyl-CoA and palmitoylcarnitine were examined in two preparations of dog cardiac mitochondria. Mitochondria prepared by using the Nagarse technique was 2.5-fold more active in respiration-dependent Ca2+ uptake than were mitochondria isolated by using the Polytron procedure. Palmitoyl-CoA and palmitoylcarnitine inhibited Ca2+ uptake in both preparations uncompetitively, with Ki,app 0.4 and 20μm. Ca2+-uptake rates were related to, or influenced by, the concentration of mitochondrial reduced nicotinamide nucleotides, with uptake slowing as this concentration decreased. When most of the nicotinamide nucleotides was oxidized, Ca2+ release and respiratory stimulation were observed. In the presence of Ruthenium Red and palmitoyl-CoA, oxidation of nicotinamide nucleotides was abolished and the time to Ca2+ release was shortened corresponding to the time of onset of nicotinamide nucleotide oxidation in the absence of Ruthenium Red. The results suggest that NAD(P)H oxidation in the presence of rotenone was a consequence of Ca2+ re-uptake and that net Ca2+ release could be observed as reduced nicotinamide nucleotide concentrations declined. Although nicotinamide nucleotide oxidation occurred in the presence of rotenone, it was not linked in an apparent manner to acyl-group metabolism (palmitoylcarnitine was less effective than palmitoyl-CoA). Therefore either a by-pass of the rotenone block or a direct interaction of NAD(P)H with the Ca2+-uptake process was possible. Loss of NADH occurred before respiratory stimulation, and this loss may relate to decreased coupling efficiency at sites 2 and 3 of the respiratory chain, as suggested by others [Bhuvaneswaran & Wadkins (1978) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 82, 648–654]. 相似文献

A new method for extracting pyridine nucleotides from tissue samples at room temperature that allows the simultaneous extraction of both the oxidized and reduced nucleotide when using a 70% buffered ethanol solution as the extractant has been developed. The extraction efficiencies for NAD+ and NADH were 91 and 102%, respectively. The extraction method was followed by a combined bioluminescent assay of both nucleotides. A bacterial bioluminescent system, which included luciferase and low levels of a NADH-specific oxidoreductase, was used to produce a constant light intensity directly proportional to the amount of NADH in the tissue extract sample. When the NADH had been measured, the NAD+ present in the extract was enzymatically converted to NADH by the addition of alcohol dehydrogenase, after which the second increase in light level was recorded. The sensitivity of the bioluminescent assay presented here is 5 × 10?14 mol NADH or NAD+ per assay. 相似文献

1. A method is described for the determination of the oxidized and reduced forms of the nicotinamide nucleotides by measuring the rate of the oxygen uptake with an oxygen electrode in a system in which the nucleotide acts as the rate-limiting carrier in a cyclic system. 2. The method permits the measurement of quantities as low as 0·02μg. of NAD+ or NADH or 0·01μg. of NADP+ or NADPH. 3. The method permits the measurement of the nucleotides in extracts that contain non-specific reducing substances, coloured compounds or fluorescent materials, e.g. green leaves. 4. The results obtained by the present method are compared with those reported in the literature. 相似文献

A new technique for separation and determination of ATP, ADP, AMP, NAD+, NADP+, NADH and NADPH in Lacwbacillus plantarum has been developped. It involves acid and basic extraction of nucleotide pool, analysis by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography on a 5 m Spherisorb ODS-1 column and UV detection. The method offers advantages in accurate estimations of adenylic and nicotinamide nucleotides concentrations in Lactobacillus plantarum during the growth phase. Such results indicate the potential of this technique as an important research tool. 相似文献

Pyridine nucleotides in normal and nicotinamide depleted adrenal tumor cell cultures 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mouse adrenal tumor cell line Y-129 was grown in cell culture in medium without nicotinamide. Inhibition of growth occurred after the second subculture in the vitamin-deficient medium. Pyridine nucleotides were measured in control and nicotinamide-starved cultures. DPN+ decreased to less than 10% of the normal level after 7 days of vitamin starvation. TPNH dropped to 25% of its normal level in the same period. Plating efficiency decreased from 20% in controls to 10% in 7-day nicotinamide-starved cultures. Steroid production was reduced by approximately 50% in the starved cultures. Sensitivity of the cultures to the lethal effects of the nicotinamide antagonist, 3-acetylpyridine, was inversely proportional to the pyridine nucleotide content of the cells. Reconstitution of nicotinamide in depleted cultures caused a rapid renewal of the pyridine nucleotide levels and complete protection against the effects of 3-acetylpyridine. Recovery and subsequent growth of the cultures did not restore the decreased capacity to produce steroids. Nicotinic acid was not utilized by the cells for the synthesis of pyridine nucleotides in depleted cultures and azaserine did not inhibit the utilization of nicotinamide indicating that DPN+ was synthesized directly via nicotinamide ribonucleotide. 相似文献

We measured both pyridine nucleotide levels and ribonucleotide reductase-specific activity in Yoshida ascites hepatoma cells as a function of growth in vivo and during recruitment from non-cycling to cycling state in vitro. Oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADP) levels remained unchanged during tumour growth, while NADP+ and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) levels were very high in exponentially growing cells and markedly decreased in the resting phase. Ribonucleotide reductase activity paralleled NADP(H) (NADP+ plus NADPH) intracellular content. The concomitant increase in both NADP(H) levels and ribonucleotide reductase activity was also observed during G1-S transition in vitro. Cells treated with hydroxyurea showed a comparable correlation between the pool size of NADP(H) and ribonucleotide reductase activity. On the basis of these findings, we suggest that fluctuations in NADP(H) levels and ribonucleotide reductase activity might play a critical role in cell cycle regulation. 相似文献

Adenosine, adenine, cyclic adenosine monophosphate (AMP), AMP, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, adenosine diphosphate, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were recovered quantitatively from aqueous portions of lipid extracts of microfouling, detrital, and sedimentary microbial communities. These could be detected quantitatively in the picomolar range by forming their 1-N6-etheno derivatives and analyzing by high-pressure liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. Lipid extraction and subsequent analysis allowed the simultaneous measurement of the microbial community structure, total microbial biomass with the quantitative recovery of the adenine-containing cellular components, which were protected from enzymatic destruction. This extraction and fluorescent derivatization method showed equivalency with the luciferin-luciferase method for bacterial ATP measurements. Quick-freezing samples in the field with dry ice-acetone preserved the ATP and energy charge (a ratio of adenosine nucleotides) for analysis at remote laboratories. The metabolic lability of ATP in estuarine detrital and microfouling communities, as well as bacterial monocultures of constant biomass, showed ATP to be a precarious measure of biomass under some conditions. Combinations of adenosine and adenine nucleotides gave better correlations with microbial biomass measured as extractable lipid phosphate in the detrital and microfouling microbial communities than did ATP alone. Stresses such as anoxia or filtration are reflected in the rapid accumulation of intracellular adenosine and the excretion of adenosine and AMP into the surrounding milieu. Increases in AMP and adenosine may prove to be more sensitive indicators of metabolic status than the energy charge. 相似文献

Recently, we discovered that nicotinamide riboside and nicotinic acid riboside are biosynthetic precursors of NAD+, which are utilized through two pathways consisting of distinct enzymes. In addition, we have shown that exogenously supplied nicotinamide riboside is imported into yeast cells by a dedicated transporter, and it extends replicative lifespan on high glucose medium. Here, we show that nicotinamide riboside and nicotinic acid riboside are authentic intracellular metabolites in yeast. Secreted nicotinamide riboside was detected with a biological assay, and intracellular levels of nicotinamide riboside, nicotinic acid riboside, and other NAD+ metabolites were determined by a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method. A biochemical genomic screen indicated that three yeast enzymes possess nicotinamide mononucleotide 5′-nucleotidase activity in vitro. Metabolic profiling of knock-out mutants established that Isn1 and Sdt1 are responsible for production of nicotinamide riboside and nicotinic acid riboside in cells. Isn1, initially classified as an IMP-specific 5′-nucleotidase, and Sdt1, initially classified as a pyrimidine 5′-nucleotidase, are additionally responsible for dephosphorylation of pyridine mononucleotides. Sdt1 overexpression is growth-inhibitory to cells in a manner that depends on its active site and correlates with reduced cellular NAD+. Expression of Isn1 protein is positively regulated by the availability of nicotinic acid and glucose. These results reveal unanticipated and highly regulated steps in NAD+ metabolism. 相似文献

Aspergillus oryzae aminohydrolase free acid phosphodiesterase catalyzes nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide to deamino-NAD and ammonia. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by a combination of acetone precipitation, anion exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography. The enzyme was purified 230.5 fold. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme showed a single protein band of MW 94 kDa. The enzyme displayed maximum activity at pH 5 and 40 °C with NAD as substrate. The enzyme activity appeared to be stable up to 40 °C. The enzyme activity was enhanced slightly by addition of Na+ and K+, whereas inhibited strongly by addition of Ag+, Mn2+, Hg2+ and Cu2+ to the reaction mixtures. The enzyme hydrolyzes several substrates, suggesting a probable non-specific nature. The enzyme catalyzes the hydrolytic cleavage of amino group of NAD, adenosine, AMP, CMP, GMP, adenosine, cytidine and cytosine to the corresponding nucleotides, nucleosides or bases and ammonia. The substrate concentration–activity relationship is the hyperbolic type and the apparent Km and Kcat for the tested substrates were calculated. 相似文献

Under specific conditions Penicillium simplicissimum excretes large amounts of organic acids, mainly citrate. As the energetic status of the hyphae might play a role in that respect, we developed a method for the determination of adenine (adenosine triphosphate, adenosine diphosphate, and adenosine monophosphate) and pyridine (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)) nucleotides in hyphae of P. simplicissimum. An optimum separation of the five compounds in less than 15 min was possible on a C-8 column, utilizing 50 mM aqueous triethylamine-buffer (pH 6.5) and acetonitrile as mobile phase; detection was performed at 254 nm. With the exception of NADH, which could not be determined accurately due to stability problems, the method was sensitive (LOD < or = 0.7 ng on-column), repeatable (sigma(rel) < or = 4.4%), accurate (recovery rates between 97.9 and 104.9%), and precise (intraday variation < or = 9.4%, interday variation < or = 6.2 %). For an optimum extraction of the nucleotides the chemostat samples were directly placed into hot (90 degrees C) 50% ethanol, and shaken for 10 min, followed by evaporation of the solvent and a solid phase extraction cleanup of the redissolved aqueous samples. With this method the nucleotide concentrations in hyphae from a glucose-limited chemostat culture and the respective energy charge were determined. Additionally, the effect of the time lag between sampling and extraction and the effect of a glucose pulse on nucleotide concentrations were determined. 相似文献

A new sensitive and accurate analytical method has been developed for quantification of intracellular nucleotides in complex biological samples from cultured cells of different microorganisms such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Escherichia coli, and Penicillium chrysogenum. This method is based on ion pair reversed phase liquid chromatography electrospray ionization isotope dilution tandem mass spectrometry (IP-LC-ESI-ID-MS/MS. A good separation and low detection limits were observed for these compounds using dibutylamine as volatile ion pair reagent in the mobile phase of the LC. Uniformly 13C-labeled isotopes of nucleotides were used as internal standards for both extraction and quantification of intracellular nucleotides. The method was validated by determining the linearity, sensitivity, and repeatability. 相似文献

Quantitative histochemistry of nicotinamide adenine nucleotides in retina of monkey and rabbit 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

The levels of NADP+, NADPH, NAD+ and NADH were measured in the different layers of retinas from rabbit and monkey. Samples (0.1 μg) were dissected from frozen-dried sections. The sum of oxidized and reduced forms was obtained by analysis of samples diluted several thousand fold in 0.02 n -NaOH at 0°. The reduced forms were measured by analysis of the same alkaline preparation after heating to destroy NADP+ and NAD+. All assays were made at 1:100,000 tissue dilution by enzymic cycling, which is capable of measuring 10−14 moles of nucleotides. Profiles of nicotinamide adenine nucleotide levels werecomparable in monkey and rabbit. Both total NADP and NAD were lowest in the outer segments of the retina and highest in the inner layers. NADP of the outer layers (1-2b) was oxidized to a high degree. This was particularly striking for layer 2b, which is rich in mitochondria. In the inner layers the fraction of NADPH rose to 0.7 of the total NADP. NAD on the contrary was highly oxidized in all ten layers of the retina. Three aspects of these results seem significant: (1) The profile for NADP was not related to the distribution of any of four major NADP-requiring dehydrogenases or their sum; (2) the ratio of total NADP/NADPH in the mitochondrial layer was much higher than expected from studies with isolated mitochondria; and (3) the amount of total NADP was surprisingly high in non-mitochondrial layers. 相似文献

Pyridine nucleotides in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus leopoliensis (Racib) Komárek and in the green algae Scenedesmus obtusiusulus Chod. and Ankistrodesmus braunii (Naegeli) Brunnth. were extracted with either hot NaOH, hot ethanol, hot acidic or alkaline methanol, perchloric acid (PCA) or trichloroacetic acid (TCA). Reduced pyridine nucleotides were determined with NADH- and NADPH-dependent bacterial luciferase. Oxidized nucleotides were determined after enzymatic conversion to the reduced forms. The yields of pyridine nucleotides in the extracts were compared to the relative extraction efficiency for ATP. Extraction with hot NaOH appeared satisfactory for reduced nucleotides in the green algae but less so in Synechococcus. Extraction with PCA seemed preferable for the oxidized nucleotides. The sensitivity of the bacterial luciferase assay was lowered by all extractants. Criteria for assessment of optimal extraction procedures for pyridine nucleotides are discussed. 相似文献

The enzyme utilizing metaphosphate for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphorylation was purified 500-fold from B. ammoniagenes and its properties were studied. The isolated enzyme appeared homogeneous on disc gel electrophoresis; its molecular weight was determined to be 9.0 × 104 by gel filtration. This enzyme specifically phosphorylated nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide at the optimum pH at 6.0. Of phosphoryl donors tested, metaphosphate was most effective for the reaction, and adenosine-5′-triphosphate was less effective. The activity was inhibited by adenosine-5′-monophosphate, adenosine-5′-diphosphate or reduced pyridine nucleotides. The enzyme did not exhibit catalytic activity in the absence of a divalent cation. We concluded that the enzyme phosphorylating nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide in the presence of metaphosphate is distinct from adenosine-5′-triphosphate-dependent nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide kinase, and tentatively designated it metaphosphate-dependent nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide kinase. 相似文献

The pH dependence of the 13C chemical shifts for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), thionicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (TNAD+), pyridine adenine dinucleotide (PyrAD+), N-methyl-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (N-Me-NAD+), acetylpyridine adenine dinucleotide (AcPyAD+), nicotinamide hypoxanthine dinucleotide (NHD+), and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) are reported. In these analogs the 13C chemical shifts of the pyridinium moiety reflect the pKa of the opposing purine base, while the 13C chemical shift dependence on pD for the pyridinium carbons of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN+) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP), 1,4-dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), 1,4-dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide (N(a)AD+) are not influenced by the adenine ring in the pD range tested. Through the use of 13C-labeled NAD+, the source of the pH dependence of the 13C chemical shifts was shown to be intramolecular in origin. However, serious doubt is cast on the utility of employing the pD dependence of chemical shift data to determine the nature of solution conformers or their relative populations. 相似文献

Summary Gastric fundic metabolism was studied by spectroscopic observation in frog mucosa during transitions of secretory status in vitro and by direct measurement of pyridine nucleotides and associated metabolites in biopsies of dog fundic mucosa also during secretory oxidation of the redox components from flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) to cytochromea
3. Addition of histamine resulted in reduction of these components with onset of secretion by about 50%. In contrast, the effect of apparently, burimamide and subsequently histamine on the ratio of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, reduced (NAD+/NADH) was relatively slight. Further, the presence of burimamide substantially reduces the effect of amytal on the pyridine nucleotide spectrum and abolishes the effect of amytal on FAD and the cytochromes. Measurements of lactate, pyruvate, -ketoglutarate, NH3 and glutamate in the dog showed that whereas the calculated NAD+/NADH ratio in the cytoplasm declined with onset of secretion, the calculated mitochondrial ratio rose. No change was noted in the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, reduced (NADP+/NADPH) ratio. It is concluded that (1) H2 antagonists act by blocking substrate flow into the mitochondrial respiratory chain, (2) conversely, histamine stimulation acts at the level of substrate mobilization, and (3) there may be a cross-over in the mitochondrial chain between NAD+ and FAD. 相似文献
