Analytical methods for the determination of melagatran (H 319/68) in biological samples by liquid chromatography (LC)-positive electrospray ionization mass spectrometry using multiple reaction monitoring are described. Melagatran in plasma was isolated by solid-phase extraction on octylsilica, either in separate extraction tubes or in 96-well plates. Absolute recovery of melagatran from plasma was >92%. Melagatran and the internal standard, H 319/68 D2 13C2, were separated from other sample components by LC utilizing a C18 stationary phase and a mobile phase comprising 35% acetonitrile and 0.08% formic acid in 0.0013 mol/l ammonium acetate solution. After dilution, urine was injected directly onto the LC column and subjected to gradient LC. The relative standard deviation was 1-5% for concentrations above the limit of quantification, which was estimated for plasma at 10 or 25 nmol/l for sample volumes of 500 or 200 microl, respectively, and 100 nmol/l for urine. 相似文献

Signaling through NF-kappaB has been implicated in the malignant phenotype as well as the chemoresistance of various cancers. Here we show that the natural compounds acetyl-beta-boswellic acid and acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid (AKbetaBA) inhibit proliferation and elicit cell death in chemoresistant androgen-independent PC-3 prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Induction of apoptosis was demonstrated in cultured PC-3 cells by several parameters including mitochondrial cytochrome c release and DNA fragmentation. At the molecular level these compounds inhibit constitutively activated NF-kappaB signaling by intercepting the IkappaB kinase (IKK) activity; signaling through the interferon-stimulated response element remained unaffected, suggesting specificity for IKK inhibition. The impaired phosphorylation of p65 and the reduced nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB proteins were associated with down-regulation of the constitutively overexpressed and NF-kappaB-dependent antiapoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-x(L). In addition, expression of cyclin D1, a crucial cell cycle regulator, was reduced as well. Down-regulation of IKK by antisense oligodeoxynucleotides confirmed the essential role of IKK inhibition for the proliferation of the PC-3 cells. Both compounds tested were active in vivo, yet AKbetaBA proved to be far superior. Indeed, topical application of water-soluble AKbetaBA-gamma-cyclodextrin on PC-3 tumors xenografted onto chick chorioallantoic membranes induced concentration-dependent inhibition of proliferation as well as apoptosis. Similarly, in nude mice carrying PC-3 tumors, systemic application of AKbetaBA-gamma-cyclodextrin inhibited tumor growth and triggered apoptosis in the absence of detectable systemic toxicity. Thus, AKbetaBA and related compounds acting on IKK might provide a novel approach for the treatment of chemoresistant human tumors such as androgen-independent human prostate cancers. 相似文献

Sample preparation for amino acid determination by integrated pulsed amperometric detection in foods 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
This report describes a new sample preparation method for food which allows a complete separation of carbohydrates and amino acids prior to their analysis by anion-exchange chromatography and integrated pulsed amperometric detection. Food samples with high carbohydrate concentrations are applied to solid-phase extraction columns containing a strong cation-exchange resin. Carbohydrates are recovered initially; retained amino acids are eluted with 0.2 M CaC l(2) subsequently. The carbohydrate and the amino acid fractions are analyzed. The recovery calculated for 21 amino acids was in the range from 84 to 126%. The sample preparation was tested for amino acid concentrations between 4.2 and 84.0 nmol of each amino acid (between 2.1 and 42.0 nmol of cystine) and correlation coefficients between 0.84 and 0.99 were obtained. The capacity of the solid-phase extraction columns employed was up to 3.7 micro mol. Sample preparation was evaluated with four different food samples: sourdough, skim milk, lemon juice, and potato. 相似文献

An analytical method for the determination of letrozole (CGS 20 267) in plasma and of letrozole and its metabolite, CGP 44 645, in urine is described. Automated liquid-solid extraction of compounds from plasma and urine was performed on disposable 100-mg C8 columns using the ASPEC system. The separation was achieved on an ODS Hypersil C18 column using acetonitrile-phosphate buffer, pH 7, as the mobile phase at a flow-rate of 1.5 ml/min. A fluorescence detector was used for the quantitation. The excitation and emission wavelengths were 230 and 295 nm, respectively. The limits of quantitation (LOQ) of letrozole in plasma and in urine were 1.40 nmol/l (0.4 ng/ml) and 2.80 nmol/l, respectively. The respective mean recoveries and coefficient of variation (C.V.) were 96.5% (9.8%) in plasma and 104% (7.7%) in urine. The LOQ of CGP 44 645 in urine was 8.54 nmol/l (2 ng/ml). The mean recovery was 108% (6.3%). The compounds were well separated from co-extracted endogenous components and no interferences were observed at the retention times of compounds. The sensitivity of this method for letrozole in plasma should be sufficient for kinetic studies in humans with single doses of 0.5 mg and possibly less. 相似文献

Abstract: This study was undertaken to explore the metabolic fate of acetyl- l -carnitine in rat brain. To measure the flux of carbon atoms into anabolic processes occurring at regional levels, we have injected [1-14 C]acetyl- l -carnitine into the lateral brain ventricle of conscious rats. After injection of [1-14 C]acetyl- l -carnitine, the majority of radioactivity was recovered as 14 CO2 expired (60% of that injected). The percentage of radioactivity recovered in brain was 1.95, 1.60, 1.30, and 0.93% at 1, 3, 6, and 22 h, respectively. Radioactivity distribution in various lipid components indicated that the fatty acid moiety of phospholipid contained the majority of radioactivity. The radioactive profile of these fatty acids showed that the acetyl moiety of acetyl- l -carnitine was incorporated into saturated (60%), monounsaturated (15%), and polyunsaturated (25%) fatty acids [mainly present in 20:4 (5.2%) and 22:6 (7.8%)]. Injection in the brain ventricle of radioactive glucose, the major source of acetyl-CoA in the CNS, revealed that glucose was a precursor of saturated (85%) and monounsaturated (15%) but not of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Thus, this study demonstrated distinct fates of glucose and acetyl- l -carnitine following intracerebroventricular injection. In summary, these data implicate acetyl- l -carnitine as an important member of a complex acetate trafficking system in brain lipid metabolism. 相似文献

Analytical methods for the determination of ximelagatran, an oral direct thrombin inhibitor, its active metabolite melagatran, and intermediate metabolites, melagatran hydroxyamidine and melagatran ethyl ester, in biological samples by liquid chromatography (LC) positive electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (MS) using selected reaction monitoring are described. Isolation from human plasma was achieved by solid-phase extraction on octylsilica. Analytes and isotope-labelled internal standards were separated by LC utilising a C(18) analytical column and a mobile phase comprising acetonitrile-4 mmol/l ammonium acetate (35:65, v/v) containing 0.1% formic acid, at a flow-rate of 0.75 ml/min. Absolute recovery was approximately 80% for ximelagatran, approximately 60% for melagatran ethyl ester and >90% for melagatran and melagatran hydroxyamidine. Limit of quantification was 10 nmol/l, with a relative standard deviation <20% for each analyte and <5% above 100 nmol/l. Procedures for determination of these analytes in human urine and breast milk, plus whole blood from rat and mouse are also described. 相似文献

The immunomodulatory bioassay-guided fractionation of the oleogum resin of frankincense (Boswellia carterii Birdwood) resulted in the isolation and identification of 9 compounds; palmitic acid and eight triterpenoids belonging to lupane, ursane, oleanane, and tirucallane skeleta were isolated form the resin. These triterpenoids are lupeol, beta-boswellic acid, 11-keto-beta-boswellic acid, acetyl beta-boswellic acid, acetyl 11-keto-beta-boswellic acid, acetyl-alpha-boswellic acid, 3-oxo-tirucallic acid, and 3-hydroxy-tirucallic acid. The structures of the isolated compounds were deduced based on spectroscopic evidences. The lymphocyte transformation assay of the isolated compounds proved that the total extract retained more activity than that of any of the purified compounds. 相似文献

Boswellin (BE), a methanol extract of the gum resin exudate of Boswellia serrata, contains naturally occurring triterpenoids, beta-boswellic acid and its structural related derivatives, has been used as a traditional medicine for the treatment of inflammatory and arthritic diseases. Topical application of BE to the backs of mice markedly inhibited 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced increases in skin inflammation, epidermal proliferation, the number of epidermal cell layers, and tumor promotion in 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-initiated mice. Feeding 0.2% of BE in the diet to CF-1 mice for 10-24 weeks reduced the accumulation of parametrial fat pad weight under the abdomen, and inhibited azoxymethane (AOM)-induced formation of aberrant crypt foci (ACF) by 46%. Addition of pure beta-boswellic acid, 3-O-acetyl-beta-boswellic acid, 11-keto-beta-boswellic acid or 3-O-acetyl-11-keto-beta-boswellic acid to human leukemia HL-60 cell culture inhibited DNA synthesis in HL-60 cells in a dose-dependent manner with IC50 values ranging from 0.6 to 7.1 microM. These results indicate that beta-boswellic acid and its derivatives (the major constituents of Boswellin) have anti-carcinogenic, anti-tumor, and anti-hyperlipidemic activities. 相似文献

An ultraviolet absorbance method for quantitation of acetylsalicylic acid esterase (hydrolase) activity has been developed and validated. The sensitivity of the method was found to be 2.8 nmol/ml-min in the assay cuvette. Linearity of the reaction with enzyme concentration and time has been demonstrated. The product of the enzymatic reaction, salicylic acid, has been identified by thin-layer chromatography using acetyl-[14C]salicylic acid. The quantities of salicylic acid produced in 5, 10, and 15 min of incubation were equal when assayed by the spectrophotometric method and by the acetyl-[14C]salicylic acid thin-layer chromatographic method. The time required for assay by ultraviolet absorbance is approximately 3 min/sample. 相似文献

A new chromatographic system for the steroid precursor separation and a sensitive radioimmunoassay system for the subsequent measurement of 18-hydroxy-11-deoxycorticosterone and 18-hydroxycorticosterone has been developed. 18-Hydroxy-11-deoxycorticosterone and 18-hydroxycorticosterone were extracted with methylene chloride and separated from cross-reacting steroids by Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. Anti-18-hydroxy-11-deoxycorticosterone and anti-18-hydroxycorticosterone antibodies raised in rabbits were used. The lower detection limit of the assay is 0.03 nmol/l and 0.128 nmol/l for 18-hydroxy-11-deoxycorticosterone and 18-hydroxycorticosterone, respectively. Normal values for this assay in 128 healthy neonates and infants aged 0-5 months were established as a basis for the early hormonal diagnosis of aldosterone synthase deficiency types I and II. Its application for the diagnosis of aldosterone synthase deficiency is demonstrated in two patients with homozygous mutation/deletion in the encoding CYP11B2 gene. 相似文献

Automated procedures for the determination of CGP 33 101 in plasma and the simultaneous determination of CGP 33 101 and its carboxylic acid metabolite, CGP 47 292, in urine are described. Plasma was diluted with water and urine with a pH 2 buffer prior to extraction. The compounds were automatically extracted on reversed-phase extraction columns and injected onto an HPLC system by the automatic sample preparation with extraction columns (ASPEC) automate. A Supelcosil LC-18 (5 μm) column was used for chromatography. The mobile phase was a mixture of an aqueous solution of potassium dihydrogen phosphate, acetonitrile and methanol for the assay in plasma, and of an aqueous solution of tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate, tripotassium phosphate and phosphoric acid and of acetonitrile for the assay in urine. The compounds were detected at 230 nm. The limit of quantitation was 0.11 μml/l (25 ng/mol) for the assay of CGP 33 101 in plasma, 11 μmol/l (2.5 μg/ml) for its assay in urine and 21 μmol/l (5 μg/ml) for the assay of CGP 47 292 in urine. 相似文献

Abstract— Following intracranial and intraperitoneal injection of acetyl- l -[U-14 C]aspartate into mice about 5% and 0.7% of the radioactivity, respectively, was recovered from the brain after 30 min.
On chromatographic separation of the cationic and anionic compounds on a Dowex 50 column, the former fraction contained about 60% of the radioactivity, predominantly as labelled aspartate and glutamate. The anionic compounds, containing 20% of the labelled compounds, were fractionated in several chromatographic systems and resolved into a great variety of labelled peptidic compounds of which five acetyl-[U14 -C]aspartyl peptides, containing two to four amino acids, were purified. One of these, acetyl-aspartyl glutamine, has not previously been found in brain. 相似文献

We have developed an assay for the simultaneous determination of methotrexate (MTX) and its main metabolites, 7-hydroxymethotrexate (7-OHMTX) and 2,4-diamino-N10-methylpteroic acid (DAMPA) in plasma, urine and saliva meeting the requirement of rapidity for routine use in high-dose MTX therapy and the requirement of sensitivity for its potential use in therapeutic drug monitoring in low-dose MTX therapy. Sample preparation is based on solid-phase extraction using C8 Isolute cartridges. Chromatographic separation was achieved with a reversed-phase column (C18), and quantitation by subsequent exposure to UV light of 254 nm, which converted MTX and its two metabolites by photolytic oxidation to fluorescent products. The recoveries of MTX, 7-OHMTX and DAMPA from plasma at 100 nmol/1 were 85.8, 91.1 and 102.3%, respectively. The limits of detection for MTX, 7-OHMTX and DAMPA in plasma and saliva were 0.1 nmol/1. In urine the limit of detection was 10 nmol/1 for all compounds. The limits of quantitation in plasma and saliva were 0.5 nmol/1 for all compounds. 相似文献

Hepatic monoacylglycerol acyltransferase: ontogeny and characterization of an activity associated with the chick embryo 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Hepatic monoacylglycerol acyltransferase is expressed during the perinatal period in rats and guinea pigs and appears to be related temporally to the availability of fatty acids and to the development of hepatic steatosis. In order to determine when monoacylglycerol acyltransferase activity is expressed in an avian species, its ontogeny was investigated in chick liver total particulate preparations. In livers from 11- to 21-day-old chick embryos, monoacylglycerol acyltransferase specific activity was 34.5 +/- 8.1 nmol/min per mg of total particulate protein. The specific activity decreased 93% to 2.6 +/- 1.3 nmol/min per mg by the 6th day after hatching. The specific activities of fatty acid CoA ligase, diacylglycerol acyltransferase, and microsomal and mitochondrial glycerol-P acyltransferases changed comparatively little during this time period. In the embryos, the monoacylglycerol acyltransferase activity per liver rose 28-fold between the 11th and 21st day, corresponding exactly to the increase in liver total particulate protein during this time. Monoacylglycerol acyltransferase activity in other tissues was 25- to 115-fold lower than observed in liver. Optimal activity was measured using 25 microM palmitoyl-CoA and 50 microM sn-2-monooleoylglycerol. The activity with the 1- and 2-monooleoylglycerol ethers and 1-monooleoylglycerol was very low. In contrast to microsomes from rat liver, about 70% of the product with the 1- and 2-monooleoylglycerol ethers was triradylglycerol, suggesting that the diacylglycerol acyltransferase from chick liver can acylate acyl, alkylglycerols. The activity with sn-2-monooleoylglycerol amide was 12.5% of that observed with the corresponding 2-monooleoylglycerol suggesting that the ester bond is important; the 1-monooleoylglycerol amide was not a substrate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The purpose of this work was to develop and validate a method for the separation and determination of the enantiomers of terbutaline in plasma and intestinal juice. Terbutaline was extracted from plasma and intestinal juice by liquid-solid extraction on small C18 cartridges. The extract was then analyzed by coupled column liquid chromatography with amperometric detection. For chiral separation a beta-cyclodextrin phase was used. The within-day variation (Cv) on spiked plasma samples was in the range 0.8-6.4% at 3.8-33.8 nmol/liter for the (-)-enantiomer, and 2.6-23.0% at 1.3-11.3 nmol/liter for the (+)-enantiomer. The between-day variation on spiked plasma samples was 5.5% at 10.7 nmol/liter and 13.6% at 4.3 nmol/liter for the (-)-and (+)-enantiomers, respectively. The within-day variation for intestinal juice was in the range 0.7-1.5% at 5.6-30.0 mumol/liter for the (+)-enantiomer. 相似文献

A high-performance liquid chromatographic method with indirect fluorescence detection has been developed for quantification of dipicolinic acid, a major constituent of bacterial endospores. After separation on a reversed-phase column, a post-column reagent of sodium acetate at 1 mol l(-1) with 50 micromol l(-1) terbium chloride was added for complexation of dipicolinic acid. Terbium monodipicolinate complexes formed were quantified by measuring the fluorescence emission maximum at 548 nm after excitation with UV light at 270 nm wavelength. Parameters of post-column complexation were optimized to achieve a detection limit of 0.5 nmol DPA l(-1), corresponding to about 10(3) Desulfosporosinus orientis endospores per ml. The method was applied to the analysis of spore contamination in tuna and for estimating the endospore numbers in marine sediments. 相似文献

We have isolated the chick and mouse homologs of human aldehyde dehydrogenase 6 (ALDH6) that encode a third cytosolic retinaldehyde-specific aldehyde dehydrogenase. In both chick and mouse embryos, strong expression is observed in the sensory neuroepithelia of the head. In situ hybridization analysis in chick shows compartmentalized expression primarily in the ventral retina, olfactory epithelium, and otic vesicle; additional sites of expression include the isthmus, Rathke's pouch, posterior spinal cord interneurons, and developing limbs. Recombinant chick ALDH6 has a K(0.5) = 0.26 microm, V(max) = 48.4 nmol/min/mg and exhibits strong positive cooperativity (H = 1.9) toward all-trans-retinaldehyde; mouse ALDH6 has similar kinetic parameters. Expression constructs can confer 1000-fold increased sensitivity to retinoic acid receptor-dependent signaling from retinol in transient transfections experiments. The localization of ALDH6 to the developing sensory neuroepithelia of the eye, nose, and ear and discreet sites within the CNS suggests a role for RA signaling during primary neurogenesis at these sites. 相似文献
