Inhibition of erythrocyte sickling in vitro by DL-glyceraldehyde.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Concentrations of DL-glyceraldehyde between 5 and 20 mM reduce the sickling of S/S erythrocytes even in the complete absence of oxygen; at 10 mM glyceraldehyde the increase in the number of normal cells ranges from 20 to 40%. The inhibition of sickling was both concentration- and time-dependent and was not reversed by repeated washings with buffer. Incubation of erythrocytes with increasing concentrations of glyceraldehyde resulted in only a small increase in the oxygen affinity, a moderate reduction in the Hill coefficient, a substantial increase in the minimum gelling concentration, and modification of up to two lysine residues per hemoglobin molecule.

Inhibition of erythrocyte sickling in vitro by pyridoxal.
To test the antisickling activity of pyridoxal, we compared the oxygen affinity and the percent sickling at low PO2 of untreated erythrocytes with values for cells from the same blood sample incubated with pyridoxal, glyceraldehyde, or pyridoxine. Pyridoxal increased oxygen affinity much more than glyceraldehyde. 20 mM pyridoxal and glyceraldehyde had equivalent antisickling activity. At PO2 le...
متن کاملInhibition of Amino Acid Incorporation into Protein of Yoshida Ascites Hepatoma Cells by Glyceraldehyde.
DL-GIyceraldehyde, a known inhibitor of glycolysis which does not appreciably af fect respiration, has been found to depress the incorporation of labeled leucine into pro tein of normal and neoplastic tissues, in vitro. With Yoshida ascites hepatoma cells, the inhibition of amino acid incorporation into protein occurred both in aerobic and anaerobic conditions, the L-isomer being apparently mor...
متن کاملInhibition of spinach phosphoribulokinase by DL-glyceraldehyde.
Spinach chloroplast phosphoribulokinase is inhibited by DL-glyceraldehyde. The inhibition is non-competitive with respect to ribulose 5-phosphate (Ki 19mM) and ATP (Ki 20mM). The inhibition is discussed in relation to a previously reported inhibition of CO2 assimilation in intact and envelope-free chloroplasts by DL-glyceraldehyde. It is concluded that the inhibition of phosphoribulokinase is i...
متن کاملEffect of carbonyl compounds on red blood cells deformability.
The effect of Maillard reaction on red blood cells (RBC) deformability was investigated. Exposure of RBC to carbonyl compounds (dl-glyceraldehyde, glyoxal, glycolaldehyde, 3-deoxyglucosone, and d-glucose) leading to Maillard reaction caused a marked decrease in RBC deformability even at 1mM level. The decrease rate depended on the kind of carbonyl compounds, in which both dl-glyceraldehyde and ...
متن کاملComparative evaluation of fifteen anti-sickling agents.
Fifteen compounds reported to be inhibitors of gelation or sickling were studied by standard methods. These tests included (1) the determination of the solubility of deoxyhemoglobin S or Csat, (2) evaluation of sickling in whole SS blood at various pO2s, (3) measurement of the oxygen affinity of hemoglobin and blood, and (4) examination of red cell indices and morphology. Among the 4 noncovalen...
