AbstractOsteoporosis is a disease that is characterized by deterioration of bone tissue and increased risk of fracture as it leads to a decrease in bone mineral density, which is an important public health problem. Today, bone mineral density is measured by radiological techniques. Alternative techniques are needed because of the disadvantages such as excessive radiation intake, the cost of radiological techniques, and the necessity for specialist personnel for the devices. The quantitative determination of biochemical markers that play a role in bone mineralization may be a good alternative for the osteoporosis diagnosis and especially in the follow-up of treatment.In this study, a specific and sensitive immunological biosensor, which quantitatively determines the osteocalcin molecule, has been developed to be used in the early osteoporosis diagnosis and to evaluate the response to the drug treatment. Anti-osteocalcin antibody was immobilized onto gold electrode surface via covalent immobilization method by using 6-mercaptohexanol, 1,4-butanedioldiglycidyl ether, ethanolamine, and glutaraldehyde. Immobilization steps and biosensor characterization were specified by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The detection time and range of Ocn biosensor were determined as 45?min and 10–60?pg µL?1 Ocn concentration, respectively. The Ocn biosensor was successfully applied in artificial serum samples spiked with Ocn. 相似文献

A study of the conformational spaces of the chiral proton pump inhibitor (PPI) drug omeprazole by semiempirical, ab-initio, and DFT methods is described. In addition to the chiral center at the sulfinyl sulfur atom, the chiral axis at the pyridine ring (due to the hindered rotation of the 4-methoxy substituents) was considered. The results were analyzed in terms of the 5-methoxy and 6-methoxy tautomers and the two pairs of enantiomers (R,P)/(S,M) and (R,M)/(S,P). Five torsion angles were systematically explored: the backbone rotations defined by D1 (N3-C2-S10-O11), D2 (C2-S10-C12-C13), and D3 (S10-C12-C13-N14) and two methoxy rotations defined by D4 (C6-C5-O8-C9) and D5 (C16-C17-O19-C20). Significant energy differences were revealed between the 5- and 6-methoxy tautomers, the extended and folded conformations, and the (S,M) and (S,P) diastereomers. The "extended M" conformation of the 6-methoxy tautomer of (S)-omeprazole was found to be the most stable conformer. 相似文献

Polynitroxylated hemoglobin (Hb(AcTPO)12) has been developed as a hemoglobin-based oxygen carrier. While Hb(AcTPO)12 has been shown to exert beneficial effects in a number of models of oxidative injury, its peroxidase activity has not been characterized thus far. In the blood stream, Hb(AcTPO)12 undergoes reduction by ascorbate to its hydroxylamine form Hb(AcTPOH)12. Here we report that Hb(AcTPOH)12 exhibits peroxidase activity where H2O2 is utilized for intramolecular oxidation of its TPOH residues to TPO. This represents an unusual redox-catalytic mechanism whereby reduction of H2O2 is achieved at the expense of reducing equivalents of ascorbate converted into those of Hb(AcTPOH)12, a new propensity that cannot be directly associated with ascorbate. 相似文献

We investigated the association of PON1 55/192 polymorphisms with type, severity and prognosis of stroke and oxidative markers. Paraoxonase1 (PON1), Glutathione Reductase (GSH-Rd) and Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were measured at day 1 and at day 5 following the onset of stroke. Genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction digestion. The frequencies of QQ and MM genotypes of PON1 192 and PON1 55, respectively, were significantly higher in controls than in patients. However, the allele frequencies of PON1 192 R and PON1 55 L were significantly more frequent in patients compared to controls. The frequency of combined genotype of RR/LL was significantly higher in cardioembolic group than in atherothrombotic group. PON1 activities were significantly diminished in stroke patients compared to controls. In contrast, serum MDA levels were significantly greater in patients than the values in controls. GSH-Rd activity was higher in patients with small lesion and good prognosis than those with large and poor prognosis. Low density lipoprotein (LDL) levels in patients with large lesions were higher than those with small lesions. PON1 55/192 polymorphisms influence activity of the enzyme. PON1 55/192 genotypes have been associated with MDA levels. In conclusion, PON1 genetic variations are associated with risk factors, severity, type and prognosis of stroke and oxidative stress. 相似文献

Alpha-amylase was produced from Penicillium griseofulvum by an SSF technique. Alpha-amylase was immobilized on Celite by an adsorption method. Various parameters, such as effect of pH and temperature, substrate concentration, operational and storage stability, ability to hydrolyze starch and products of hydrolysis were investigated; these findings were compared with the free enzyme. The activity yield of immobilization was 87.6%. The optimum pH and temperature for both enzymes were 5.5 degrees C and 40 degrees C, respectively. The thermal, and the operational and storage stabilities of immobilized enzyme were better than that of the free enzyme. Km and Vmax were calculated from Lineweaver-Burk plots for both enzymes. Km values were 9.1 mg mL(-1) for free enzyme, and 7.1 mg mL(-1) for immobilized enzyme. The Vmax of the immobilized enzyme was approximately 40% smaller than that of the free enzyme. The hydrolysis ability of the free and immobilized enzyme were determined as 99.3% and 97.9%, respectively. Hydrolysis products of the a-amylase from P. griseofulvum were maltose, unidentified oligosaccharides, and glucose. 相似文献

Mutations in the transmembrane natriuretic peptide receptor NPR-B impair skeletal growth and cause acromesomelic dysplasia, type Maroteaux 下载免费PDF全文
Bartels CF Bükülmez H Padayatti P Rhee DK van Ravenswaaij-Arts C Pauli RM Mundlos S Chitayat D Shih LY Al-Gazali LI Kant S Cole T Morton J Cormier-Daire V Faivre L Lees M Kirk J Mortier GR Leroy J Zabel B Kim CA Crow Y Braverman NE van den Akker F Warman ML 《American journal of human genetics》2004,75(1):27-34
The homodimeric transmembrane receptor natriuretic peptide receptor B (NPR-B [also known as guanylate cyclase B, GC-B, and GUC2B]; gene name NPR2) produces cytoplasmic cyclic GMP from GTP on binding its extracellular ligand, C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). CNP has previously been implicated in the regulation of skeletal growth in transgenic and knockout mice. The autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia known as "acromesomelic dysplasia, type Maroteaux" (AMDM) maps to an interval that contains NPR2. We sequenced DNA from 21 families affected by AMDM and found 4 nonsense mutations, 4 frameshift mutations, 2 splice-site mutations, and 11 missense mutations. Molecular modeling was used to examine the putative protein change brought about by each missense mutation. Three missense mutations were tested in a functional assay and were found to have markedly deficient guanylyl cyclase activity. We also found that obligate carriers of NPR2 mutations have heights that are below the mean for matched controls. We conclude that, although NPR-B is expressed in a number of tissues, its major role is in the regulation of skeletal growth. 相似文献

Mutations in the AHI1 gene, encoding jouberin, cause Joubert syndrome with cortical polymicrogyria 下载免费PDF全文
Dixon-Salazar T Silhavy JL Marsh SE Louie CM Scott LC Gururaj A Al-Gazali L Al-Tawari AA Kayserili H Sztriha L Gleeson JG 《American journal of human genetics》2004,75(6):979-987
Joubert syndrome (JS) is an autosomal recessive disorder marked by agenesis of the cerebellar vermis, ataxia, hypotonia, oculomotor apraxia, neonatal breathing abnormalities, and mental retardation. Despite the fact that this condition was described >30 years ago, the molecular basis has remained poorly understood. Here, we identify two frameshift mutations and one missense mutation in the AHI1 gene in three consanguineous families with JS, some with cortical polymicrogyria. AHI1, encoding the Jouberin protein, is an alternatively spliced signaling molecule that contains seven Trp-Asp (WD) repeats, an SH3 domain, and numerous SH3-binding sites. The gene is expressed strongly in embryonic hindbrain and forebrain, and our data suggest that AHI1 is required for both cerebellar and cortical development in humans. The recently described mutations in NPHP1, encoding a protein containing an SH3 domain, in a subset of patients with JS plus nephronophthisis, suggest a shared pathway. 相似文献

Alendronate causes serious gastrointestinal adverse effects. The aim of this study was to investigate whether octreotide, a synthetic somatostatin analogue, improves the alendronate-induced gastric injury. Rats were administered 20mg/kg alendronate by gavage for 4 days, either alone or following treatment with octreotide (0.1 ng/kg, i.p.). On the last day, following drug administration, pilor ligation was performed and 2h later, rats were killed and stomachs were removed. Gastric acidity and tissue ulcer index values, lipid peroxidation (as assessed by malondialdehyde, MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity as well as the histologic appearance of the stomach tissues were determined. Chronic oral administration of alendronate induced significant gastric damage, increasing lipid peroxidation (37.1+/-3.2 nmol/g) and myeloperoxidase activity (57.6+/-3.7 U/g), while tissue glutathione levels (09.+/-0.1 micromol/g) decreased. Treatment with octreotide prevented this damage as well as the changes in biochemical parameters (MDA: 23.4+/-1.3 nmol/g; MPO: 31.68 U/g; GSH: 15.+/-0.1 micromol/g). Findings of the present study suggest that alendronate induces oxidative gastric damage by a local irritant effect, and that octreotide ameliorates this damage by inhibiting neutrophil infiltration and reducing lipid peroxidation. Therefore, its therapeutic role as a "ulcer healing" agent must be further elucidated in alendronate-induced gastric mucosal injury. 相似文献

Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) comprises a group of chronic systemic inflammatory disorders that primarily affect joints
and can cause long-term disability. JRA is likely to be a complex genetic trait, or a series of such traits, with both genetic
and environmental factors contributing to the risk for developing the disease and to its progression. The HLA region on the
short arm of chromosome 6 has been intensively evaluated for genetic contributors to JRA, and multiple associations, and more
recently linkage, has been detected. Other genes involved in innate and acquired immunity also map to near the HLA cluster
on 6p, and it is possible that variation within these genes also confers risk for developing JRA. We examined the TPSN gene, which encodes tapasin, an endoplasmic reticulum chaperone that is involved in antigen processing, to elucidate its
involvement, if any, in JRA. We employed both a case–control approach and the transmission disequilibrium test, and found
linkage and association between the TPSN allele (Arg260) and the systemic onset subtype of JRA. Two independent JRA cohorts were used, one recruited from the Rheumatology
Clinic at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center (82 simplex families) and one collected by the British Paediatric
Rheumatology Group in London, England (74 simplex families). The transmission disequilibrium test for these cohorts combined
was statistically significant (χ2 = 4.2, one degree of freedom; P = 0.04). Linkage disequilibrium testing between the HLA alleles that are known to be associated with systemic onset JRA did
not reveal linkage disequilibrium with the Arg260 allele, either in the Cincinnati systemic onset JRA cohort or in 113 Caucasian
healthy individuals. These results suggest that there is a weak association between systemic onset JRA and the TPSN polymorphism, possibly due to linkage disequilibrium with an as yet unknown susceptibility allele in the centromeric part
of chromosome 6. 相似文献
