- W2023173725 abstract "Seven cationic, cystine-rich peptides of 29 to 32 amino acid residues have been purified from extracts of rat bone marrow (R-1, R-1a, R-1b, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5). Structural analysis clearly indicated that all seven peptides belong to the corticostatin/defensin family of leukocyte-derived peptides known to participate in oxygen-independent killing of phagocytosed bacteria. For R-1 to R-5, six cysteine residues were found at characteristic and highly conserved positions. R-1a and R-1b were partially characterized and appear to be structural variants of R-1. Aside from the conserved cysteines, there is a remarkable degree of structural diversity evident within the sequences of those members of the corticostatin/defensin family characterized so far. The structures of the peptides that we have purified can be compared directly with the sequences obtained for rat defensins isolated from extracts of peritoneal neutrophils (Lehrer, Ganz and Selsted, Cell, 64 (1991) 229–230). Some discrepencies are apparent which can be explained in terms of proteolytic cleavage of several of these peptides at both amino- and carboxyl-termini. The corticostatins owe their bioactivity to their ability to compete with corticotropin for occupancy of the corticotropin receptor (Zhu, Hu, Mulay, Esch, Shimasaki and Solomon, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 85 (1988) 592–596). The potency of these peptides can be expressed in terms of their capacity to inhibit the steroidogenic response of isolated rat adrenocortical cells half-maximally stimulated by corticotropin (i.e., at the ED50 concentration for corticotropin in this assay, namely 33 pM). In this assay, the rat peptides R-1, R-2 and R-3 were shown to be inactive. In contrast, the more cationic peptides R-4 and R-5 were found to inhibit steroidogenesis. R-4 was somewhat less active than rabbit corticostatin (IC50 25 nM) showing an IC50 value of 50 nM. R-5 appeared to be significantly less potent than R-4. The lower yield of R-5 precluded an accurate estimate of the corticostatic potency of this peptide. R-4 differs in structure from R-5 in having an arginine to serine substitution at position 7. It can be concluded that an arginine at this position accounts, at least in part, for the corticostatic activity of R-4. When tested for their cytotoxic activity using Chinese hamster ovary cells in culture, R-4 was shown to be active (IC50 2 μM) while R-1 and R-3 were inactive. None of the rat peptides was found to antagonize the biological activity of α-melanotropin in an anolis skin bioassay." @default.
