The antinatriuretic action of gamma-L-glutamyl-5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan is dependent on its decarboxylation to 5-hydroxytryptamine in normal man.
1. The effects of inhibition of peripheral aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase during infusion of the relatively renally selective 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) prodrug, gamma-L-glutamyl-5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan (glu-5-HTP), were examined in eight healthy male subjects in a randomised, placebo-controlled, cross-over study. 2. Each subject received oral carbidopa (100 mg) or placebo followed, 1 h lat...
متن کاملThe synthesis and the enzymatic degradation of l-tyrosyl-l-lysyl-l-glutamyl-l-tyrosine.
The formation of angiotonin from the serum protein fraction art-globulin and renin (1, 2) as well as its inactivation by proteolytic enzymes suggests that this pressor substance contains peptide linkages. Preliminary studies and interpretations (3) of the action of crystalline proteolytic enzymes led to the conclusion that angiotonin contains groupings of which the simplest representation is af...
متن کاملSynthesis, characterization, and biological evaluation of poly(L-γ-glutamyl-glutamine)- paclitaxel nanoconjugate
The purpose of this study was to develop a novel, highly water-soluble poly(L-γ-glutamyl-glutamine)-paclitaxel nanoconjugate (PGG-PTX) that would improve the therapeutic index of paclitaxel (PTX). PGG-PTX is a modification of poly(L-glutamic acid)- paclitaxel conjugate (PGA-PTX) in which an additional glutamic acid has been added to each glutamic side chain in the polymer. PGG-PTX has higher wa...
متن کاملl-Tryptophan 4-nitrophenol trisolvate
The title compound, C(11)H(12)N(2)O(2)·3C(6)H(5)NO(3), comprises a zwitterionic amino acid formed by two nearly planar groups: (i) the indole ring and Cβ, and (ii) the carboxyl group, Cα, as well as the amine N atom, with r.m.s. deviations of 0.0084 and 0.0038 Å, respectively. The angle between these idealized planes is 39.47 (9)°. The amine group of the amino acid is in a syn (-sc) arrangement...
متن کاملRedetermination of l-tryptophan hydrobromide
The redetermined crystal structure of the title compound, C(11)H(13)N(2)O(2) (+)·Br(-), is reported. Data collection at 100 K about three crystallographic axes resulted in a crystal structure with significantly higher precision in comparison to the two-dimensional data collected at 176 K [Takigawa et al. [(1966) Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn, 39, 2369-2378]. The carboxyl group and indole ring system are...
