CATH-2TP5 is a linear cationic hybrid peptide, consequent from naturally occurring antimicrobial peptide (AMPs) Cathelicidin-2 (CATH-2) and Immunomodulatory peptide Thymopentin (TP5) having dynamic and potent anti-inflammatory activities without hemolytic effect. The biocompatible mechanism of CATH-2TP5 is favored to explore new methodologies in the direction of biomedical applications. In this retrospectively study, an antiendotoxin and anti-inflammatory hybrid peptide CATH-2TP5 was emulated into pPICZα-A and successfully expressed in . The recombinant CATH-2TP5 was purified through the Ni-affinity column and reversed-phase HPLC. The purified CATH-2TP5 peptide exhibited robust anti-endotoxin activity and significantly ( < 0.05) neutralized the effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Furthermore, the down-regulated effect of CATH-2TP was more pronounced ( < 0.05) on LPS-induced cytotoxic effects, nitric oxide secretion and pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β) in murine RAW264.7 macrophages. As associated to control and parental peptide the number of apoptotic cells was also contracted with the treatment of CATH-2TP5. Thus, we concluded that CATH-2TP5 peptide may be used in various biomedical applications as a therapeutic drug.
CATH-2TP5是一种线性阳离子杂合肽,由天然存在的抗菌肽(AMPs)Cathelicidin-2(CATH-2)和具有动态且强效抗炎活性且无溶血作用的免疫调节肽胸腺五肽(TP5)组成。CATH-2TP5的生物相容性机制有利于在生物医学应用方向探索新方法。在这项回顾性研究中,一种抗内毒素和抗炎杂合肽CATH-2TP5被模拟到pPICZα-A中并在……中成功表达。重组CATH-2TP5通过镍亲和柱和反相高效液相色谱法进行纯化。纯化后的CATH-2TP5肽表现出强大的抗内毒素活性,并显著(<0.05)中和了脂多糖(LPS)的作用。此外,CATH-2TP对LPS诱导的小鼠RAW264.7巨噬细胞的细胞毒性作用、一氧化氮分泌和促炎细胞因子(TNF-α、IL-6和IL-1β)的下调作用更为明显(<0.05)。与对照和亲本肽相比,CATH-2TP5处理后凋亡细胞的数量也减少了。因此,我们得出结论,CATH-2TP5肽可作为治疗药物用于各种生物医学应用。
