Purification of calmodulin-stimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase by monoclonal antibody affinity chromatography.

Immobilized ACC-1 and ACAP-1 antibodies are effective tools for the purification of active calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterases. ACC-1 antibody binds all bovine and rat brain isozymes in a Ca2+-dependent manner and has been used for their purification. Since ACC-1 binds both bovine brain isozymes (61- and 63-kDa forms) and ACAP-1 recognizes only the 61-kDa isozyme, ACAP-1 can be used to separate and purify the two brain isozymes. The procedures described here for phosphodiesterase isolation from brain are rapid and require few enzymatic assays, resulting in preparations of good purity, specific activity, and yield (Tables II, III). The procedures for brain tissue can be easily adapted for use with larger amounts of tissue. The cross-reactivity of ACP-1 for rat brain phosphodiesterase suggests that this antibody may recognize isozymes from other mammalian tissues.

The use of dye-ligand affinity chromatography for the purification of non-enzymatic human plasma proteins.

Literature data are analysed in this review on the use of immobilized triazine dyes for the characterization, isolation and purification of non-enzymatic human plasma proteins in both conventional and high-pressure liquid chromatography systems. Attention is focused on the mode of interaction between the dyes and these proteins, as well as on the advantages over previously reported techniques. Future developments are discussed.

Tumour regression after extracorporeal affinity chromatography of blood plasma across agarose beads containing staphylococcal protein A.

The therapeutic effect of absorbing plasma from tumour patients with immobilized staphylococcal protein A was tested. Plasma prepared by centrifugation was passed over protein A-Sepharose and then reinfused into the patient. Five patients were thus treated. One with malignant melanoma and one with renal adenocarcinoma showed measurable regression of metastatic lesions. In another with malignant melanoma a subcutaneous metastasis showed histopathological changes compatible with a therapeutic effect. In two patients, one with malignant melanoma and one with renal adenocarcinoma, no signs of regression were found. No severe adverse effects of the treatment were observed.

Selective separation of human peripheral platelets, granulocytes and lymphocytes by surface affinity chromatography.

Selective separation of human peripheral platelets, granulocytes and lymphocytes was investigated by column liquid chromatography using methoxyethoxymethyl (MEM) bonded-phase columns (25 x 0.9 cm I.D.). Isotonic solutions containing mono- and disaccharides, methyl-alpha-D-pyranosides and a physiological saline at pH 7.4 were used as the mobile phase. Granulocytes and lymphocytes were separated on the MEM-Cellulofine GH-25 column by elution with 0.3 M D-mannose solution. The isolation of platelets and lymphocytes from human leukocyte-rich plasma was performed with a MEM-Sephadex G25 column and elution with 0.27 M sucrose solution. On the same column platelets could also be collected selectively by elution with 0.31 M methyl-alpha-D-mannoside at the high recovery of 100%. The isolated cells were viable for more than 90%.

Characterization of drug interactions with soluble beta-cyclodextrin by high-performance affinity chromatography.

This study examined the use of an immobilized human serum albumin (HSA) column to study solution-phase reactions between drugs and beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD). Chromatographic equations were developed to characterize the binding of chemicals to a soluble ligand (beta-CD) in the presence of an independent immobilized ligand (HSA). Situations considered included the presence of both a homogeneous and heterogeneous immobilized ligand, as well as complex interactions between the chemical of interest and soluble ligand. Three drugs (warfarin, tamoxifen, and phenytoin) were examined by this approach. This method involved injecting a small amount of each drug onto an HSA column in the presence of various concentrations of beta-CD in the mobile phase. By measuring the change in the drug's retention factor as the concentration of beta-CD was varied, it was possible to determine the stability constant between the injected drug and beta-CD. With this approach, warfarin and beta-CD were found to have 1:1 interactions with a stability constant of 5.2 x 10(2) M(-1) at 37 degrees C and pH 7.4, a result in close agreement with previous literature values. Tamoxifen and phenytoin were also found to have 1:1 interactions with beta-CD and had stability constants of 0.9-1.2 x 10(4) and 6-9 x 10(2) M(-1) respectively. With these latter solutes, the effects of secondary binding to the chromatographic support had to be considered. The theory and methods described in this report are not limited to these drugs and beta-CD but can be applied to other analytes and soluble ligands.
