چکیده
The proteinase-activated receptor-2 (PAR2)-activating peptide with an N-terminal furoyl group modification, 2-furoyl-LIGRLO-NH2 (2fLI), was derivatized via its free ornithine amino group to yield [3H]propionyl-2fLI and Alexa Fluor 594-2fLI that were used as receptor probes for ligand binding assays and receptor visualization both for cultured cells in vitro and for colonic epithelial cells in vivo. The binding of the radiolabeled and fluorescent PAR2 probes was shown to be present in PAR2-transfected Kirsten normal rat kidney cells, but not in vector-alone-transfected cells, and was abolished by pretreatment of cells with saturating concentrations of receptor-selective PAR2 peptide agonists such as SLIGRL-NH2 and the parent agonist 2fLI but not by reverse-sequence peptides such as 2-furoyl-OLRGIL-NH2 that cannot activate PAR2. The relative orders of potencies for a series of PAR2 peptide agonists to compete for the binding of [3H]propionyl-2fLI (2fLI >> SLIGRL-NH2 approximately= trans-cinnamoyl-LIGRLO-NH2 > SLIGKV-NH2 > SLIGKT-NH2) mirrored qualitatively their relative potencies for PAR2-mediated calcium signaling in the same cells or for vasorelaxation in a rat aorta vascular assay. In the vascular assay, the potency of Alexa Fluor 594-2fLI was the same as 2fLI. We conclude that ornithine-derivatized 2fLI peptides are conveniently synthesized PAR2 probes that will be of value for future studies of receptor binding and visualization.

Proteinase-activated receptor-2 activating peptides: distinct canine coronary artery receptor systems.
In canine coronary artery preparations, the proteinase-activated receptor-2 (PAR(2)) activating peptides (PAR(2)-APs) SLIGRL-NH(2) and 2-furoyl-LIGRLO-NH(2) caused both an endothelium-dependent relaxation and an endothelium-independent contraction. Relaxation was caused at peptide concentrations 10-fold lower than those causing a contractile response. Although trans-cinnamoyl-LIGRLO-NH(2), like...
متن کاملRole of mast cells and protease-activated receptor-2 in cyclooxygenase-2 expression in urothelial cells.
Mast cells have been shown to play a role in development and persistence of various inflammatory bladder disorders. Mast cell-derived tryptase specifically activates protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR-2), and PAR-2 is known to be involved in inflammation. We investigated whether mast cells participate in increase of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) protein abundance in urothelium/suburothelium of bladd...
متن کاملAttenuated Vasodilator Effectiveness of Protease-Activated Receptor 2 Agonist in Heterozygous par2 Knockout Mice
Studies of homozygous PAR2 gene knockout mice have described a mix of phenotypic effects in vitro and in vivo. However, there have been few studies of PAR2 heterozygous (wild-type/knockout; PAR2-HET) mice. The phenotypes of many hemi and heterozygous transgenic mice have been described as intermediates between those of wild-type and knockout animals. In our study we aimed to determine the effec...
