A fluorimetric method for red blood cell sorbitol dehydrogenase activity.
A new fluorimetric method for the quantification of red blood cell (RBC) sorbitol dehydrogenase is described. It is based on the oxidation of sorbitol to fructose, in presence of NAD+, catalysed by the RBC-sorbitol dehydrogenase. The quantity of NADH formed is then measured in a filter fluorimeter. Comparison with an indirect spectrophotometric assay yielded good correlation; however, the prese...
متن کاملSorbitol Dehydrogenase Activity in Diabetes Mellitus and Cataract Patients
Accumulation of sorbitol in the pathogenesis of cataract in susceptible subjects has long been an issue. Sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH) activity in 25 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients and 15 patients having cataract was investigated using 10 subjects without diabetes or cataract as the control. Results of fasting plasma glucose assay done on the DM patients showed a mean range of 64 – 144mg/dl in ...
متن کاملinhibition of aldose reductase and red blood cell sorbitol accumulation by extract of capparis spinosa
conclusions these results demonstrated that cse, mainly through inhibition of alr2, could prevent or delay the diabetic complications, like cataract formation, as a result of sorbitol accumulation. results the cse inhibited alr2 activity, with an ic50 of 0.54 mg/ml and it was seven and a half times greater than that of alr1 inhibition, indicating the specificity of cse for alr2, rather than alr...
متن کاملSorbitol dehydrogenase is a cytosolic protein required for sorbitol metabolism in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Sorbitol is converted to fructose in Rosaceae species by SORBITOL DEHYDROGENASE (SDH, EC 1.1.1.14), especially in sink organs. SDH has also been found in non-Rosaceae species and here we show that the protein encoded by At5g51970 in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. possesses the molecular characteristics of an SDH. Using a green fluorescent protein-tagged version and anti-SDH antisera, we deter...
متن کاملFluorimetric method for measuring chemotaxis.
found that all the antibodies mentioned above showed equally good staining results on our smears. In normal adults the number of peripheral blood lymphocytes stained by these markers were as follows: Tll: 75-90%; Bi: 10-20%; 12: 10-20%; T4: 55-65%; T8: 25-35%; J5: 100% negative. These figures are in close agreement with those given by the manufacturer when using immunofluorescence. Using this m...
