- W2896584077 abstract "It is now well established that neutrophil elastase and cathepsin-G are responsible for elastin degradation in the lung and that the major function of α1-proteinase inhibitor (α1Pi) is to control elastolytic activity. α1Pi can inactivate many serine proteinases, but kinetic studies show it to be most efficient against elastase. Complexes of α1Pi and serine proteinases are extremely stable and can only be dissociated under alkaline conditions. Dissociation results in active enzyme and inactive inhibitor, the latter being of lower molecular weight than that of the native molecule. The reactive site of α1Pi contains a methionyl-seryl peptide bond. Treatment with SucNCl chemically oxidizes two of the methionyl residues in the inhibitor to the sulfoxide form, one of which is the reactive site methionine. No other residues are modified. Two methionyl residues of α1Pi (and no other amino acids) are also oxidized by the action of the neutrophil enzyme, myeloperoxidase. Myeloperoxidase requires hydrogen peroxide and a halide ion for its action. The optimum pH for oxidation of α1Pi is at pH 6.2 with half-maximal activity at pH 5.9 and 6.5. CaCl2, Ca(NO3)2 and Ca(Ac)2 inhibit the inactivation of α1Pi and calcium lactate enhances it. On NaDodSO1-acrylamide gel electrophoresis, myeloperoxidase-treated α1Pi has the same molecular weight as native α1Pi, but cannot form a complex with porcine elastase. In fact, the molecular weight of oxidized α1Pi is reduced in the presence of elastase, indicating modification of the inhibitor. Sequence analysis demonstrated that proteolytic cleavage occurred at the P8 methionyl bond and that both the P8 and P1 methionyl residues were oxidized. Filtered cigarette smoke, bubbled through plasma, decreased elastase inhibitory activity by 3%. Even unfiltered smoke inhibited only 19%. However, the lungs have a vast surface area, perhaps rendering inhibitors present on the lining more susceptible to oxidants. In order to show that oxidized α1Pi exists in vivo, an inflamed tissue was examined for its presence. Lung lavage fluid contains α1Pi but in quantities too small for isolation and characterization. Rheumatoid synovial fluid contains only inactive α1Pi, in which amino acid analysis shows two oxidized methionyl residues. The molecular weight of this protein is identical to native α1Pi and porcine elastase reduces it to a lower molecular weight form. Many kinds of oxidants are produced by neutrophils and macrophages. Since α1Pi contains two oxidizable methionyl residues, one essential for activity, an imbalance between proteinases and proteinase inhibitors could readily occur. Eventually, such an imbalance could give rise to emphysema, even in individuals with normal levels of α1Pi." @default.
