An endogenous ligand for the central sulfonylurea receptor

Abstract: An endogenous ligand for the rat central sulfonylurea receptor has been evidenced in the rat central nervous system. The characteristics of this ligand (extraetibility, non-dialysability, chromatographic behaviour on different media, sensitivity to proteases) indicate that it is a neutral to slightly basic peptide.

“…Heron et al (1998) recently reported that ␣-endosulfine may act as an endogenous regulator of ␤-cell K ATP channel activity and insulin secretion. ␣-Endosulfine is a peptide that was purified from bovine brain in the quest for an endogenous ligand for the SUR in brain (Virsolvy-Vergine et al, 1988). In the present study, we have shown that the endogenous ligand for PPAR-␥ 15-deoxy-⌬ 12,14 -PGJ 2 may bind to SUR and inhibit K ATP channels.…”

“…Tissues from adult Wistar rats were boiled and extracted in 10 ml 0.5 mol/l acetic acid for each gram of tissue, as previously described [12]. Rat blood samples were collected into glass tubes containing EDTA (15%) and 250 KIU aprotinin (Interchim, Montlucon, France) and centrifuged at 800 g for 10 min at 4°C.…”

“…1C). When comparing these data to those obtained with rat brain extracts (23), the following observations may be made: (i) from both aliphatic bonded phases, rat (22) and ovine (see Fig. 1 A and B) endosulfines were eluted as a main peak; (ii) rat and ovine endosulfines displayed slightly different retention times in these systems (see Fig.…”

“…In the CNS, the potential endogenous ligand is likely to be present near the receptor. We have shown that such a ligand exists in the rat brain (22). We describe the presence in and the purification from ovine brain of two peptides, representing most likely two forms of the same entity, for which we propose the name "'endosulfine.…”
