N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline (AcSDKP) is a physiological inhibitor of hematopoiesis that is maintained at stable levels in normal plasma. Its degradation in vivo and in vitro by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) accounts for the high plasma concentrations of AcSDKP in patients treated with ACE inhibitors. Because ACE inhibitors can induce anemia in some patients, we measured plasma AcSDKP...
In this study the authors assessed plasma leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R) concentrations in 28 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) with extracorporeal circulation (ECC). Plasma IL-6 levels increased during ECC, reaching a 33-fold increase 6 h after surgery as compared to pre-operative values. In contrast, plasma sIL-6R...
The tetrapeptide AcSer-Asp-Lys-Pro (AcSDKP) is a physiological inhibitor of the proliferation of haematopoietic stem cells and progenitors. In Ara-C-treated mice, its plasmatic concentrations decrease while the CFU-S start cycling. Infusion of synthetic AcSDKP (Goralatide) at this time protects them from haematoxicity by blocking early cycling of CFU-S. Both in vitro and in vivo, this effect seems...
