- Preventing and reversing the formation of advanced glycosylation endproducts
-
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for inhibiting and reversing nonenzymatic cross-linking (protein aging). Accordingly, compositions are disclosed which comprise an agent capable of inhibiting the formation of advanced glycosylation endproducts of target proteins, and which additionally reverse pre-formed crosslinks in the advanced glycosylation endproducts by cleaving alpha-dicarbonyl-based protein crosslinks present in the advanced glycosylation endproducts. Certain agents useful are thiazolium salts. The method comprises contacting the target protein with the composition. Both industrial and therapeutic applications for the invention are envisioned, as food spoilage and animal protein aging can be treated. A novel immunoassay for detection of the reversal of the nonenzymatic crosslinking is also disclosed.

- Preventing and reversing advanced glycosylation endproducts
-
The present invention relates to compositions and methods for inhibiting and reversing nonenzymatic cross-linking (protein aging). Accordingly, a composition is disclosed which comprises a thiazolium compound capable of inhibiting, and to some extent reversing, the formation of advanced glycosylation endproducts of target proteins by reacting with the carbonyl moiety of the early glycosylation product of such target proteins formed by their initial glycosylation. The method comprises contacting the target protein with the composition. Both industrial and therapeutic applications for the invention are envisioned, as food spoilage and animal protein aging can be treated. A novel immunoassay for detection of the reversal of the nonenzymatic crosslinking is also disclosed.

- BASE-CATALYZED OXIDATION OF 2-(α-HYDROXYBENZYL)THIAMINE BY MOLECULAR OXYGEN
-
Oxidation of 2-(α-hydroxybenzyl)thiamine by molecular oxygen in the presence of an acetate buffer in methanol includes formation of an intermediate enamine and its subsequent oxidation with concurrent protonation.Using the dependence of the reciprocal rate constant for acetate-catalyzed oxidation on /-> the values of k1 and k-1/k2 have been calculated.Comparison of oxidation kinetics of 2-(α -hydroxybenzyl)thiamine, 2-(α-hydroxybenzyl)-3- benzyl-4-methyl-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)thiazolium chloride, and 2(α-hydroxybenzyl)-3-benzyl- 4-methylthiazolium chloride indicates that the reaction of the intermediate enamine with O2 is governed by the 3- and 5-substituents.It is assumed that the 5-hydroxyethyl group causes steric hindrance, and the amino group in position 4 of the pyrimidine fragment favors deprotonation of the Cα-hydroxy group.

- OXIDATIVE DECOMPOSITION OF 2-(α-HYDROXYBENZYL)THIAMINE UNDER THE ACTION OF A BASE AND SUBSTITUTED QUINONES
-
The reaction of 2-(α-hydroxybenzyl)thiamine and its thiazolium structural analogs with substituted quinones in the presence of acetate buffer in deaerated methanolic solutions at 27 deg C and ionic strength of 0.15 is characterized by first-order kinetics with respect to the thiazolium salt and the acetate and by zero-order kinetics with resoect to quinone.The rate constant of the reaction catalyzed by the basic component of the buffer decreases in the following series of oxidants: 2-methyl-5-isopropyl-p-benzoquinone, trimethyl-p-benzoquinone, tetramethyl-p-benzoquinone.It was supposed that fast reversible formation of a complex between the deprotonated 2-(α-hydroxybenzyl)thiazole and the oxidant precedes electron transfer to the quinone.In the one-electron transfer stage, which determines the overall reaction rate, the 5-hydroxyethyl substituent exerts an adverse effect for steric reasons.
