The distribution of the glyprolines, Pro-Gly-Pro and Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-Pro (Selanc), was analyzed and compared in tissues of rat organs after different ways of their administration using the peptides uniformly labeled with tritium. Comparative data on changes of concentrations of the peptides in the rat organs after their intraperitoneal, intranasal, intragastric, and intravenous administration are given. The intranasal administration of both peptides was shown to be optimal for delivery of glyprolines molecules in the CNS. A high affinity of the studied glyprolines for gastric tissues was found for all the ways of their administration. We suggest that high efficacy of action of glyprolines on homeostasis of the gastric mucosa was partially provided by accumulation of these peptides (to high concentrations) in gastric tissues. 相似文献

A peptide acidic hydrolysate of collagen (PHC) was obtained under conditions (4 N HCl) ensuring the predominant formation of short peptides, glyprolines. They were separated and their antiulcer activity was studied. Thirty individual peptides with molecular masses of 174–420 amu were isolated from the PHC by HPLC. The PHC was shown to predominantly contain 2-to 4-aa peptides, including PG, GP, and PGP. Experiments on rats demonstrated that, on intragastric administration at a dose of 1 mg/kg, PHC enhances the stability of the gastric mucosa to the action of ulcerogenic factors, such as ethanol and stress, and exhibits a protecting antiulcer effect. Even a lesser dose (0.1 mg/kg), which reduced ulcer area twofold, was effective in the stress model of ulcer formation. The intraperitoneal and intragastric administration of PHC at a dose of 1 mg/kg was found to exhibit a therapeutic effect in the acetate model of ulcer formation. 相似文献

The analgetic activity of dermorphin and its analogue A-2 was assessed by the tail-flick test. Following intraperitoneal administration at doses 5 mg/kg and above the peptides showed significant effects. After intranasal application of the peptides a significant effect was observed in the range of low doses 0.001-0.1 mg/kg. After intranasal application of high dermorphin doses (1 or 5 mg/kg) the analgetic activity decreased. The effect of analogue A-2 lasted longer after intranasal, than after intraperitoneal administration. It is assumed that the neurophysiological mechanisms of the analgetic activity of dermorphins depend on the route of their administration. 相似文献

Biologically active peptides evenly labeled with tritium were used for studying the in vitro and in vivo biodegradation of the peptides. Tritium-labeled peptides with a specific radioactivity of 50–150 Ci/mmol were obtained by high temperature solid phase catalytic isotope exchange (HSCIE) with spillover tritium. The distribution of the isotope label among all amino acid residues of these peptides allows the simultaneous determination of practically all possible products of their enzymatic hydrolysis. The developed analytical method includes extraction of tritium-labeled peptides from organism tissues and chromatographic isolation of individual labeled peptides from the mixture of degradation products. The concentrations of a peptide under study and the products of its biodegradation were calculated from the results of liquid scintillation counting. This approach was used for studying the pathways of biodegradation of the heptapeptide TKPRPGP (Selank) and the tripeptide PGP in blood plasma. The pharmacokinetics of Selank, an anxiolytic peptide, was also studied in brain tissues using the intranasal in vivo administration of this peptide. The concentrations of labeled peptides were determined, and the pentapeptide TKPRP, tripeptide TKP, and dipeptides RP and GP were shown to be the major products of Selank biodegradation. The study of the biodegradation of the heptapeptide MEHFPGP (Semax) in the presence of nerve cells showed that the major products of its biodegradation are the pentapeptide HFPGP and tripeptide PGP. The enkephalinase activity of blood plasma was studied with the use of evenly tritium labeled [Leu]enkephalin. A high inhibitory effect of Semax on blood plasma enkephalinases was shown to arise from its action on aminopeptidases. The method, based on the use of evenly tritium-labeled peptides, allows the determination of peptide concentrations and the activity of enzymes involved in their degradation on a μg scale of biological samples both in vitro and in vivo. 相似文献

The new glyproline family was distinguished from the regulatory peptides recently. It includes the simplest proline- and glycine-containing peptides: PG, GP, PGP, and respective peptides with hydroxylated proline residues. Glyproline's bioactivity covers many important systems of the body including suppression of some reaction in the blood coagulation and platelet aggregation and gastric mucosal maintenance. It was shown that PGP, PG and GP have a wide spectrum of antiulcer activity with respect to gastric mucosal damages of various aetiology. GHyp and HypGP show also antiulcer action. In vivo glyprolines being fragments of collagen may be generated during synthesis and catabolism of collagen. It is well known that approximately 10-60% of newly synthesized collagen degrade intracellularly with succeeding secretion of small peptides composed of less than 5 aminoacid residues out of cells. Different simplest proline and hydroxyproline fragments of glyprolines are revealed in various type of collagen: GP, GHyp, PG, PPG, PGP, PHypG., GPHyp, GPP, GPG, GHypP, HypGP. It is possible that these fragments may be also secreted out of cells during the stage of degradation of newly synthesized collagen. We showed that the intragastric (per oral) introduction of hydrolyzed gelatin, having 20 small peptide fragments, including PGP and HypGP, also increase gastric stability showing protective and therapeutic antiulcer effect. The corresponding receptors for glyprolines are not completely identified yet but it may be supposed that PGP, GP and other glyprolines interact with the same receptors with which the III type collagen is binding with platelet's receptors. It is supposed that octapeptide sequence KPGGluPGPK of collagen is rather important for binding with receptor. When this sequence in the structure of collagen's molecule binds with the receptor, platelet aggregation is induced. Free octapeptide blocks the receptor and inhibits platelet aggregations. Qualitatve characteristics of parameters of inhibition with intact octapeptide and glyproline, as well as the receptor's structure--that's our concern for the nearest future. 相似文献

We assessed the central and peripheral biological actions of human and rat calcitonin and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). After intravenous administration, human and rat calcitonin, but neither human nor rat CGRP significantly decreased plasma calcium and phosphorus concentrations in awake, freely moving rats. After intracerebroventricular as well as after intravenous administration, human and rat calcitonin and human and rat CGRP significantly inhibited gastric acid secretion in conscious rats. Intracerebroventricular administration of rat calcitonin did not alter plasma calcium and phosphorus concentrations. Linear, partially protected CGRP and calcitonin did not exhibit any biological effects. These studies indicate that calcitonin, but not CGRP, affects calcium and phosphorus homeostasis while both peptides decrease gastric acid secretion similarly. Furthermore, these studies support the hypothesis that the calcium and phosphorus lowering effects of calcitonin are peripheral while the gastric inhibiting actions of the calcitonin and CGRP are mediated by the central nervous system. 相似文献

Oxytocin, vasopressin and neurophysin-like immunoreactivity have been identified and measured by radioimmunoassay in extracts of human and rat testis and human fetal adrenal tissue. The authenticity of these polypeptides has been confirmed by their behaviour on high performance liquid chromatography. The concentrations of the hormone were too great to be explained by known circulating levels of the polypeptides, and their presence in steroid secreting organs suggests a possible role for them in steroidogenesis. The peptides may be taken up and concentrated by the tissues but the co-localisation of neurophysins with the hormones points towards local synthesis. 相似文献

The peptides comprising the sequence of HIV-1 Tat protein (positions 48-60), Antennapedia (positions 43-58), and HIV-1 Rev protein (positions 34-50) are known to be cell-permeating. In this study, we examined how the distribution of Fab fragments in rats is affected by conjugation with these peptides. Fab fragment was iodinated by a chloramine-T method and then chemically conjugated with cell-permeating peptide. The complex of 125I-Fab and cell-permeating peptide was administered to male rats intravenously at a dose of 1 mg/kg, and whole-body autoradiography was performed at 4 and 24 h after administration. The patterns of distribution of 125I-Fab exhibited remarkable variation depending on the cell-permeating peptide used. In particular, at 4 h, high concentrations of radioactivity were observed in the spleen, adrenal gland, renal medulla, and liver with Rev peptide-Fab complex, in the liver and spleen with Tat peptide-Fab complex, and in the spleen, adrenal gland, and liver with Antennapedia peptide-Fab complex. Even at 24 h, high concentrations of radioactivity were still observed in the spleen and renal medulla of rat with Rev peptide-Fab complex, and in the spleen and renal cortex of rat with Antennapedia peptide-Fab complex. These findings demonstrate that the patterns of distribution of peptide-125I-Fab complexes can be modulated by selection of cell-penetrating peptides. Moreover, the patterns of retention of peptide-125I-Fab complexes in internal organs also differed at 24 h after administration. These findings provide valuable information for the development of novel antibody pharmaceuticals and therapeutic systems. 相似文献

Profiles of endogenous peptides of the brain, heart, lungs, and spleen of a rat have been obtained by chromatographic and mass spectrometric analysis of low-molecular-mass fractions of tissues extracts. The concentrations of the corresponding components have been estimated from the intensities of 119 major chromatographic peaks. The total content of peptides in tissues, nmol/g (mg/g), was 3–13 (0.005–0.05) for the brain, 7–27 (0.01–0.10) for the heart, 17–68 (0.02–0.25) for the lungs, and 80–300 (0.08–1.30) for the spleen. A comparative analysis of the data obtained for the organs has been performed. The primary structures for 68 peptides have been determined; most substances (>70%) have been identified as hemoglobin fragments. It has been shown that many of the peptide components identified (>75%) are common for several organs. The relationship between the composition, the mechanism of formation, and the functional role of peptidomes of the organs, tissues, and cells of higher organisms has been discussed. 相似文献

Efficacy of drugs in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis mostly depends on their concentration in organs and tissues. To show distribution profiles of antituberculous drugs in patients in organs and tissues of experimental animals after their administration alone or in combination, pharmacokinetic parameters of isoniazid and rifampicin were studied. The drug concentrations, half-lives and distribution volumes were determined in 50 patients and 60 experimental animals. It was observed that after combined use of isoniazid and rifampicin their concentrations in the lung tissue and liver of the experimental animals increased which led to increasing their half-lives in patients. 相似文献

Whole-body autoradiography demonstrated the different distribution of [125I]-C-ANP and [125I]-ANP to rat tissues. Highest enrichment of radioactivity of both labelled peptides was found in the kidney. In some organs we found remarkable differences between [125I]-ANP and [125I]-C-ANP. In the kidney cortex, especially in the glomeruli, as well as in the endocardium, the zona glomerulosa and the medulla of the adrenal gland, where high levels of radioactivity after [125I]-ANP administration were detected, no or just few radioactivity was found after administration of [125I]-C-ANP. On the other hand in the kidney papilla and the outer subcortical medulla, characteristic blackening was found after [125I]-C-ANP administration. Those differences might be important for the understanding of pharmacological actions of ANP analogues. 相似文献

It has been shown that proline-containing peptides Gly-Pro and Gly-Pro-Arg in vitro had anticoagulant and nonenzymatic fibrinolytic
activity. It was established that after intranasal introduction of these peptides to a rat, anticoagulant and fibrinolytic
activity of enzymatic and nonenzymatic nature increased in the rat blood. The peptide protective effect against hypercoagulation
induced by immobilization stress was found after repeated intranasal introduction of each peptide into the animal. 相似文献

In diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications the functional activity of hormonal signaling systems and their sensitivity
to the regulatory action of hormones are changed. We studied the activity of receptor forms of guanylyl cyclase (rGC) sensitive
to natriuretic peptides ANP and CNP in the tissues of female rats with 240 day neonatal streptozotocin DM and the effects
of intranasal administration of insulin and serotonin (6 weeks, daily dose for rat is 0.48 IU insulin or 20 μg serotonin).
In diabetic rats, the increase of the basal rGC activity in the myocardium and its decrease in the uterus and ovaries were
found, while in the brain, there were no differences from the control. The treatment of diabetic rats with insulin led to
a decrease of the basal rGC activity in the myocardium and its restoration to a normal level in the ovaries. The administration
of serotonin produced a less pronounced decrease in the basal enzyme activity in the myocardium compared to insulin and an
insignificant increase in the brain. In the myocardium of diabetic rats, the guanylyl cyclase (GC)-stimulating effect of ANP
was attenuated, whereas the CNP effect was enhanced; in the ovaries, the GC-stimulating effect of CNP and, to a lesser degree,
the effect of ANP were decreased. In the uterus and brain of a diabetic rats, the rGC sensitivity to hormones was practically
did not change. The administration of insulin to diabetic rats induces an increase of GC effect of ANP in the myocardium to
its values in control and a decrease of CNP effect, as well as partially restored GC effect of CNP in the ovaries under the
influence of CNP. The administration of serotonin somewhat enhanced effect of natriuretic peptides in the brain of both control
and diabetic animals. Thus, in the neonatal model of type-2 DM in the myocardium and the tissues of the reproductive systems
of rats, the functioning of natriuretic peptide-sensitive rGC is changed. The treatment of animals by insulin substantially
restores rGC activity, while the intranasal serotonin administration has a little effect. 相似文献

Functional activity of hormanal signaling systems and their sensitivity to regulatory actions of hormones in diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications are altered. The activity of receptor forms of guanylyl cyclases (rGC) sensitive to natriuretic peptides, ANP and CNP, in tissues of female rats with 240-days neonatal streptozotocin DM and the influence of intranasal administration of insulin and serotonin (6 weeks, daily dose is 0.48 IU of insulin or 20 microg of serotonin to rat) on this activity were studied. In diabetic animals, the increase of the basal activity of rGC in the myocardium and its decrease in the uterus and ovaries were found, whereas the brain showed no differences from control animals. The treatment of diabetic rats with insulin led to a decrease in the basal activity of rGC in the myocardium and to its restoration to normal level in the ovaries. Serotonin treatment induced a less pronounced compared with insulin decrease in the basal activity of the enzyme in the myocardium and also a slight increase the activity in the brain. In the myocardium of diabetic rats, the weakening of GC stimulating effect of ANP and, on the contrary, the strengthening of CNP effect were observed. In the ovaries, GC stimulating effect of CNP and, to a lesser degree, the corresponding effect of ANP were decreased. In the uterus and the brain, the sensitivity of rGC to hormones was practically not changed. The administration of insulin to diabetic rats induced an increase in GC effect of ANP in the myocardium to its values in control animals and a decrease in CNP effect as well as in partially restored GC effect of CNP in the ovaries. Serotonin treatment led to some increase in the effects of natriuretic peptides in the brain of both control and diabetic animals. Summing up, in neonatal model of type 2 DM in the myocardium and the tissues of reproductive system of rats the functioning of natriuretic peptide-sensitive rGC is altered in the myocardium and the tissues of reproductive system of model rats with neonatal type 2 DM. Treatment of animals with insulin substantially restores rGC activity while intranasal administration of serotonin has little effect. 相似文献

The search and research of pharmacological agents that could combine lipid-lowering and antithrombotic effects on the human organism are one of the most urgent and important tasks of modern biological and medical research. The unique effects of the regulatory peptides of the oxoproline series (5-охо-Pro- His-Pro-NH2, 5-oxo-Pro-Trp-Pro, and 5-oxo-Pro-Arg-Pro or Pyr-His-Pro-NH2, Pyr-Trp-Pro, and Pyr- Arg-Pro) synthesized by the methods of classical peptide chemistry have been found in animals with experimental hypercholesterolemia. Repeated intranasal administration of these peptides to animals with developed hypercholesterolemia increased their anticoagulant, fibrinolytic and antiplatelet potential of the blood and simultaneously lowered increased concentrations of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides. In addition, they promoted normalization of blood glucose. A week after the last administration of these peptides, the hypocholesterolemic, normoglycemic and anticoagulant effects persisted. The relationship between the structure of the oxoproline-containing peptides and their functional properties is discussed. It is concluded that further studies of oxoproline-containing peptides are promising in the context of development of pharmacological agents, combining the antithrombotic activity with the improvement of lipid metabolism in the body. 相似文献

Hydrolysis of leucine enkephalin in the nasal cavity of the rat--a possible factor in the low bioavailability of nasally administered peptides 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A Hussain J Faraj Y Aramaki J E Truelove 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》1985,133(3):923-928
In order to investigate the utility of intranasal administration of peptides for systemic medication, the nasal absorption of the model peptide, leucine enkephalin (Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu), was studied in the rat. At a concentration of 60 micrograms/ml in Ringer's buffer the pentapeptide was found to undergo, extensive hydrolysis in the nasal cavity. The hydrolysis rather than the polarity of the pentapeptide appears responsible for limiting the nasal absorption of this model compound. In the presence of dipeptides, the hydrolysis of leucine enkephalin was significantly inhibited. These results suggest that the nasal administration of peptides may become an important route for drug administration provided that the peptidases in the nasal mucosa can be transiently inhibited via coadministration of pharmacologically inactive peptidase substrates. 相似文献

The presence of delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) in brain has been shown by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and by immunocytochemistry. We now describe the occurrence of DSIP-like material in the peripheral organs of the rat as measured by RIA. Tissue from 12 areas was extracted with water, and the amounts of immunoreactive material found to be between 86 pg/mg tissue (muscle) and 849 pg/mg (stomach). Recoveries of about 80% of added DSIP were achieved at tissue concentrations of 1 mg/ml or less. This percentage was reduced in liver at higher concentrations. The percentage of small peptide adsorbed by charcoal was greatly increased at lower tissue concentrations in all organs. This effect was significant and linear. Chromatography on columns of Sephadex G-15 and G-25 showed immunoreactive material mostly larger than DSIP. Digestion with trypsin, however, produced small immunoreactive peptides with only a minimal reduction in total immunoreactivity. Thus, DSIP-like material is widespread in peripheral tissues and appears to exist mainly in a large form, probably bound to protein, that can be reduced in size by tryptic digestion and can be dissociated at lower concentrations of tissue to yield small immunoreactive peptides. 相似文献

Semax is a synthetic peptide, which consists of the N-terminal adrenocorticotropic hormone fragment (4-7) (ACTH4-7) and C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro peptide. Semax promotes neuron survival in hypoxia, increases selective attention and memory storage. It was shown that this synthetic peptide exerted a number of gene expressions, especially brain derived neurotrophic factor gene (Bdnf) and nerve growth factor gene (Ngf). Temporary dynamics of Bdnf and Ngf ex- pression in rat hippocampus and frontal cortex under Semax action (50 mg/kg, single intranasal administration) was studied in this work. It was shown that the studied gene expression levels changed significantly both in the hippocampus and the frontal cortex tissues 20 minutes after the peptide preparation application. The expression levels decreased in the hippocampus and increased in the frontal cortex. Forty minutes after Semax administration both gene expression levels returned to the level typical of control tissues. After that they increased significantly by 90 minutes after experiment start. Bdnf and Ngf expression levels decreased up to the control levels by 8 hours after medicine applying maximum gene expression levels were attained. Thus, Semax administration results in rapid, long-term, and specific activation of Bdnf and Ngf expression changes in different rat brain departments. 相似文献
