Abstract

Morphological evaluation of composition and structure of a biologically active compound (BAC) based on sodium alginate, comprising 1% sizomycin and 0.25% protease C, on wound healing in infected rats wounds was made in experiment. The results have clearly shown that for the infected wound treatment during the first period of wound healing BAC of polyfunctional action must be applied. Biologically active substances (sizomycin and protease C) promote removal of inflammatory etiopathogenic factors, i. e. necrotic tissues and microbic bodies, while polysaccharide basis of the composition promotes stimulation of reparative processes in the wounds. Powder with granules size 315 m including 24% potassium gluconate is believed most suitable BAC structure.

Synthesis of collagen by bovine chondrocytes cultured in alginate; posttranslational modifications and cell-matrix interaction.

The extracellular matrix synthesized by articular chondrocytes cultured in alginate beads was investigated. Collagen levels increased sigmoidally with time and remained constant after 2 weeks of culture. The presence of cartilage-specific type II collagen was confirmed immunohistochemically. Predominantly type II collagen was present in the alginate bead, as reflected by the unique extent of lysyl hydroxylation, glycosylation, and pyridinoline crosslink formation measured. Collagen crosslinks, predominantly hydroxylysylpyridinoline (> 93%), were observed after 7 to 11 days of culture and their formation was effectively blocked by beta-aminopropionitrile (BAPN). Unexpectedly, BAPN treatment resulted in a 100% increase of collagen levels, without influencing cell proliferation and proteoglycan levels. In control cultures 90% of the synthesized collagen was retained in the cell-associated matrix, while in BAPN-treated cultures half of the collagen was found in the interterritorial matrix compartment further removed from the cells. This suggests that impaired crosslinking of collagen interferes with pericellular collagen deposition, causing upregulation of collagen synthesis by impaired cell-matrix interactions. Integrins are likely to be involved in this feedback inhibition by extracellular collagen since the cyclic RGD-containing peptide CGRGDSPC downregulated collagen synthesis by 37%.

Isolation and characterization of an Azotobacter vinelandii algK mutant.

Random Tn5 mutagenesis over Azotobacter vinelandii mucoid strain ATCC 9046 produced strain LA21, a non-mucoid, non-encysting mutant, carrying the Tn5 insertion within a gene homologous to algK from Pseudomonas aeruginosa encoding a periplasmic protein. algK, algJ and algG were shown to be transcribed as part of the palg8-alg44-algK-algJ-algG operon. A non-polar algK mutant was constructed and showed a non-mucoid phenotype, indicating that algK is essential for alginate production.

Novel alginate lyases from marine bacterium Alteromonas sp. strain H-4.

A bacterium Alteromonas sp. strain H-4 isolated from Laminaria fronds produced extra- and intra-cellular alginate lyases and utilized alginate as its sole carbon source. An extracellular alginate lyase was purified from the culture supernatant of the strain and its substrate specificity was characterized. The estimated molecular mass of the enzyme was 32 kDa and the isoelectric point was 4.7. Both polyM and polyG block degrading activities were observed using the substrate-containing gel overlay technique after isoelectric focusing of the enzyme. By analyzing the reaction products from the polyM block, polyG block, MG random block and intact alginate, three major peaks containing unsaturated tri-uronide through octa-uronide were detected for each substrate. The results indicate that the enzyme of Alteromonas sp. H-4 can degrade both polyM and polyG blocks with a K(m) in mg/mL 20-times higher for the polyM block.
