Interaction of antithrombin with sulfated, low molecular weight lignins: opportunities for potent, selective modulation of antithrombin function.
Antithrombin, a major regulator of coagulation and angiogenesis, is known to interact with several natural sulfated polysaccharides. Previously, we prepared sulfated low molecular weight variants of natural lignins, called sulfated dehydrogenation polymers (DHPs) (Henry, B. L., Monien, B. H., Bock, P. E., and Desai, U. R. (2007) J. Biol. Chem. 282, 31891-31899), which have now been found to exh...
متن کاملSulfated cellulose thin films with antithrombin affinity
Cellulose thin films were chemically modified by in situ sulfation to produce surfaces with anticoagulant characteristics. Two celluloses differing in their degree of polymerization (DP): CEL I (DP 215–240) and CEL II (DP 1300–1400) were tethered to maleic anhydride copolymer (MA) layers and subsequently exposed to SO3·NMe3 solutions at elevated temperature. The impact of the resulting sulfatio...
متن کاملInteraction of designed sulfated flavanoids with antithrombin: lessons on the design of organic activators.
Recently, we designed (-)-epicatechin sulfate (ECS), the first small nonsaccharide molecule, as an activator of antithrombin for the accelerated inhibition of factor Xa, a key proteinase of the coagulation cascade (Gunnarsson, G. T.; Desai, U. R. J. Med. Chem. 2002, 45, 1233-1243). Although sulfated flavanoid ECS was found to bind antithrombin with an affinity ( approximately 10.7 microM) compa...
متن کاملMolecular weight-functional group relations in softwood residual kraft lignins
An integrated picture of the distribution of functional groups should be provided as a function of molecular size within residual kraft lignins. With this goal we developed a reliable and reproducible method for determination of the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of residual kraft lignins (RKLs) over the whole delignification range. In general, our data indicate that for rel...
متن کاملSulfated, low-molecular-weight lignins are potent inhibitorsof plasmin, in addition to thrombin and factor Xa: Novel opportunity for controlling complex pathologies.
Recently we prepared sulfated, low-molecular-weight lignins (LMWLs) to mimic the biological activities of heparin and heparan sulfate. Chemo-enzymatically prepared sulfated LMWLs represent a library of diverse non-sugar, aromatic molecules with structures radically different from the heparins, and have been found to potently inhibit thrombin and factor Xa. To assess their effect on the fibrinol...
