Characterization of immunoreactive angiotensin in canine cerebrospinal fluid as Des-Asp1-angiotensin II.
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. Immunoreactive angiotensin II was measured in cerebrospinal fluid of four normal dogs. 2. The migration of this immunoreactive angiotensin II on polyacrylamide-slab gel electrophoresis was identical with the migration of the heptapeptide, Des-Asp1-angiotensin II, in each case. 3. The biological activity of the material from canine cerebrospinal fluid in a pressor bioassay was similar to that of Des-Asp1-angiotensin II. 4. The pressor activity of the canine material was abolished by treating the pressor bioassay rat with a competitive antagonistic analogue, Sar1-Ala8-angiotensin II. 5. The results suggest that the biologically active immunoreactive angiotension II present in normal canine cerebrospinal fluid is composed mainly of the heptapeptide fragment of angiotensin II, Des-Asp1-angiotensin II.

What regulates the activity of the central nervous renin-angiotensin system is not known. To define whether control of this central system is linked to that in the periphery, simultaneous blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples for measurement of immunoreactive angiotensin II were drawn from anesthetized dogs during hemorrhage, furosemide-induced volume depletion, insulin-hypoglycemia, beta...

متن کاملLocalization of angiotensin II receptors in ovarian follicles and the identification of angiotensin II in rat ovaries.
Specific, high-affinity (Kd approximately equal to 0.6 nM), and saturable (3.3 fmol/mg of tissue, wet weight) binding of 125I-labeled [Sar1,Ile8]angiotensin II to rat ovarian membranes was observed. Displacement of 125I-labeled [Sar1,Ile8]angiotensin II binding to rat ovarian membranes by angiotensin II analogs and fragments resembled the potency order of these compounds on angiotensin II recep...

The substrate specificity of tonin from rat submaxillary gland was examined with a series of synthetic peptides encompassing the C-terminus of the decapeptide substrate angiotensin I. In contrast to angiotensin I-converting enzyme from plasma or lung, only angiotensin I, (des-Asp1)-angiotensin I, and (des-Asp1, des-Arg2)-angiotensin I are substrates of tonin with Km values of 34.5 muM, 39.3 muM...
