Hydrolysis of pyridoxal-5'-phosphate in plasma in conditions with raised alkaline phosphate.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hydrolysis of pyridoxal phosphate in plasma was demonstrated in patients with liver disease and other conditions with raised alkaline phosphatase, and this usually closely paralleled the alkaline phosphatase level, whether of liver or bone origin. The endogenous plasma pyridoxal phosphate was inversely related to the alkaline phosphatase, and plasma hydrolysis of pyridoxal phosphate may at least in part be responsible. Very large doses of vitamin B6 may be necessary to compensate for this hydrolysis.

A fluorimetric method for the measurement of pyridoxal and pyridoxal phosphate in human plasma and leucocytes, and its application to patients with sideroblastic marrows.
A highly sensitive fluorimetric assay for the measurement of pyridoxal and pyridoxal phosphate in biological tissues is described. The method involves the enzymic hydrolysis of pyridoxal phosphate to pyridoxal. The pyridoxal (free or total) is separated on an anion-exchange column, concentrated by cation-exchange chromatography and reacted with potassium cyanide under slightly alkaline conditio...
متن کاملVitamin B-6 Metabolism and Interactions with TNAP.
Two observations stimulated the interest in vitamin B-6 and alkaline phosphatase in brain: the marked increase in plasma pyridoxal phosphate and the occurrence of pyridoxine responsive seizures in hypophosphatasia. The increase in plasma pyridoxal phosphate indicates the importance of tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) in transferring vitamin B-6 into the tissues. Vitamin B-6 is in...
متن کاملPreliminary studies for fluorometric determination of pyridoxal and of its 5'-phosphate.
Bonavita (1) found that the reaction of pyridoxal (PAL) and of pyridoxal 5•Œ-phosphate (PAL-P) with cyanide in a slightly alkaline solution produced highly fluorescent compounds and this reaction has been applied to fluoro metric determination of PAL and PAL-P as "cyanohydrin method" . Recently it was found that PAL and PAL-P were oxidized with oxygen by a catalytic action of cyanide to 4pyrido...
متن کاملThe role of acetaldehyde in mediating the deleterious effect of ethanol on pyridoxal 5'-phosphate metabolism.
Previous studies in vivo and with isolated perfused rat livers have suggested that the deleterious effect of ethanol on hepatic pyridoxal 5'-phosphate metabolism is mediated by acetaldehyde. Inasmuch as acetaldehyde has no effect on the synthesis of pyridoxal phosphate, it has also been postulated that acetaldehyde accelerates pyridoxal phosphate degradation by displacing this coenzyme from bin...

A spectrophotometric method with 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolone hydrazone hydrochloride was developed for the determination of pyridoxal and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, and for the selective determination of each in the presence of the other. Pyridoxal and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate react with the reagent to yield the azine derivatives, which give characteristic absorption spectra. The highest extinction v...
