چکیده

The presence of free glucose in serum was found to interfere with accurate measurement, by a colorimetric method, of nonenzymatically glycosylated serum proteins. A mean elevation to 241% of basal levels was observed in the serum of 11 nondiabetic subjects to which glucose, in a concentration of 300 mg/dl, had been added immediately before assay. After dialysis of serum samples to remove glucose, levels of nonenzymatically glycosylated serum proteins were 0.27 +/- 0.11 and 0.79 +/- 0.24 nmol 5-hydroxymethylfurfural/mg protein (mean +/- SD), respectively, in 57 nondiabetic and 62 type I diabetic subjects. Levels observed before dialysis of serum were approximately two to three times higher. These studies indicate that removal of free sugar from serum is necessary for accurate measurement of glycosylated protein by the colorimetric method, and this can be achieved by overnight dialysis of serum against normal saline.

Several classes of protein may undergo non-enzymetic addition of glucose derived product. Hemoglobin was the first protein shown to be modified. Subsequent studies have demonstrated a similar effect of glucose on lens crystalline, collagen, erythrocyte membrane proteins, albumin and other serum proteins. Measurement of these non-enzymatic glycosylated serum proteins (GSP) showed that the l...

Glucose and Fluoxetine Induce Fine Structural Change in Human Serum Albumin

Human serum albumin has been used as a model protein for protein folding and ligand binding studies over many decades. Due to its long life period and high concentration in plasma, HSA is highly sensitive to glycation. It is reported that 175 mg/dL glucose concentration is a threshold of kidney activity for the beginning of excretion of glucose. pH denaturation of HSA in absence and presence of...

Enhanced nonenzymatic glucosylation of human serum albumin in diabetes mellitus.

Use of an ion exchange chromatographic method and a colorimetric method with thiobarbituric acid showed that levels of nonenzymatically glucosylated serum albumin were increased in patients with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus compared to controls. The two methods correlated well (r = 0.99) and clearly discriminated between normal and poorly controlled diabetic populations. The levels of gl...

Nonenzymatic glycation of bovine serum albumin by fructose (fructation). Comparison with the Maillard reaction initiated by glucose.

Nonenzymatic glycation by glucose (glucation) was compared with glycation by fructose (fructation). The rate and extent of protein-bound fluorescence generation upon fructation was about 10 times that upon glucation. In contrast, nonenzymatically glucated bovine serum albumin (BSA) released about twice as much formaldehyde upon periodate oxidation as did nonenzymatically fructated BSA. However,...
