Analytical Performance of an Immunoassay to Measure Proenkephalin ⁎ Leslie J
Clinical Biochemistry xxx (xxxx) xxx–xxx Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Clinical Biochemistry journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/clinbiochem Analytical performance of an immunoassay to measure proenkephalin ⁎ Leslie J. Donatoa, ,Jeffrey W. Meeusena, John C. Lieskea, Deborah Bergmannc, Andrea Sparwaßerc, Allan S. Jaffea,b a Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN 55905, United States b Division of Cardiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN 55905, United States c Sphingotec GmbH, Hennigsdorf, Germany ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Background: Endogenous opioids, enkephalins, are known to increase with acute kidney injury. Since the mature Biomarkers pentapeptides are unstable, we evaluated the performance of an assay that measures proenkephalin 119–159 Proenkephalin (PENK), a stable peptide formed concomitantly with mature enkephalins. Enkephalin Methods: PENK assay performance was evaluated on two microtiterplate/chemiluminescence sandwich im- Pro-enkephalin munoassay formats that required 18 or 1 h incubation times. PENK concentration was measured in plasma from penKid healthy individuals to establish a reference interval and in patients with varied levels of kidney function and Assay validation comorbidities to assess the association with measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) using iothalamate clearance. Results: Assay performance characteristics in plasma were similar between the assay formats. Limit of quanti- tation was 26.0 pmol/L (CV = 20%) for the 1 h assay and 17.3 pmol/L (CV = 3%) for the 18 h assay. Measurable ranges were 26–1540 pmol/L (1 h assay) and 18–2300 pmol/L (18 h assay). PENK concentrations are stable in plasma stored ambient to 10 days, refrigerated to at least 15 days, and frozen to at least 90 days. -

O-desmethyltramadol (M1), the major active metabolite of tramadol, is produced by CYP2D6. A physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model was developed to predict changes in time-concentration profiles for tramadol and M1 according to dosage and CYP2D6 genotypes in the Korean population. Parallel artificial membrane permeation assay was performed to determine tramadol permeability, and the metabolic clearance of M1 was determined using human liver microsomes. Clinical study data were used to develop the model. Other physicochemical and pharmacokinetic parameters were obtained from the literature. Simulations for plasma concentrations of tramadol and M1 (after 100 mg tramadol was administered five times at 12-h intervals) were based on a total of 1000 virtual healthy Koreans using SimCYP® simulator. -

Induction of physical dependence was achieved by 60-min pre-exposure of planarians to nicotine and was quantified by abstinence-induced withdrawal (reduction in spontaneous locomotor activity). Known MOR Keywords: Nicotine and DOR subtype-selective opioid receptor antagonists attenuated the withdrawal, as did the non-selective Abstinence antagonist naloxone, but a KOR subtype-selective antagonist did not.

Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Spinorphin is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the spinorphin in the solvent of choice, which should be purged with an inert gas. Spinorphin is soluble in organic solvents such as DMSO and dimethyl formamide. The solubility of spinorphin in these solvents is approximately 30 mg/ml. Description Spinorphin is a heptapeptide inhibitor of the enkephalin-degrading enzymes aminopeptidase, dipeptidyl aminopeptidase, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and enkephalinase (IC50s = 3.3, 1.4, 2.4, and 10 µg/ml, respectively, for monkey brain enzymes).1 It is selective for these enzymes over human serum aminopeptidase A (IC50 = >100 µg/ml), as well as porcine kidney aminopeptidase B, aminopeptidase M, dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP-1), DPP-2, DPP-3, and DPP-4 (IC50s = >55 µg/ml for all). Spinorphin inhibits chemotaxis, production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and exocytosis of glucuronidase and collagenase in polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs). It potentiates enkephalin-induced action potentials in rat hippocampal slices. -

Screening of 109 Neuropeptides on Asics Reveals No Direct Agonists
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Screening of 109 neuropeptides on ASICs reveals no direct agonists and dynorphin A, YFMRFamide and Received: 7 August 2018 Accepted: 14 November 2018 endomorphin-1 as modulators Published: xx xx xxxx Anna Vyvers, Axel Schmidt, Dominik Wiemuth & Stefan Gründer Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) belong to the DEG/ENaC gene family. While ASIC1a, ASIC1b and ASIC3 are activated by extracellular protons, ASIC4 and the closely related bile acid-sensitive ion channel (BASIC or ASIC5) are orphan receptors. Neuropeptides are important modulators of ASICs. Moreover, related DEG/ENaCs are directly activated by neuropeptides, rendering neuropeptides interesting ligands of ASICs. Here, we performed an unbiased screen of 109 short neuropeptides (<20 amino acids) on fve homomeric ASICs: ASIC1a, ASIC1b, ASIC3, ASIC4 and BASIC. This screen revealed no direct agonist of any ASIC but three modulators. First, dynorphin A as a modulator of ASIC1a, which increased currents of partially desensitized channels; second, YFMRFamide as a modulator of ASIC1b and ASIC3, which decreased currents of ASIC1b and slowed desensitization of ASIC1b and ASIC3; and, third, endomorphin-1 as a modulator of ASIC3, which also slowed desensitization. With the exception of YFMRFamide, which, however, is not a mammalian neuropeptide, we identifed no new modulator of ASICs. In summary, our screen confrmed some known peptide modulators of ASICs but identifed no new peptide ligands of ASICs, suggesting that most short peptides acting as ligands of ASICs are already known. Acid-sensing ion channels form a small family of proton-gated ion channels that belongs to the degenerin/epi- thelial Na+ channel (DEG/ENaC) gene family1. -
