Plasma postheparin diamine oxidase. Sensitive provocative test for quantitating length of acute intestinal mucosal injury in the rat.

Abstract: A B S T R A C T Diamine oxidase (DAO; EC 1.4.3.6) is an enzyme found in high activity in the mature cells of the upper villus of rat small intestinal mucosa and in very much lower activity in all other tissues in the nonpregnant rat. This study was designed to determine whether a provocative test for increasing the level of plasma DAO activity by heparin administration could be used to monitor the extent and severity of acute, severe, small intestinal mucosal injury. In adult rats, small intestinal loops of va… Show more

“…The level of sICAM-1 in the serum was detected with an ELISA, the plasma level of D-lactate was determined, after the plasma was deproteinized with perchloric acid, using enzyme-coupled UV-spectrophotometry [8] ; the serum DAO was determined by spectrophotometry as by Luk et al [2] ; the number of white blood cells (WBC) was detected routinely.…”

“…In cases where the intestinal mucosal epithelial cells and barrier function are damaged, the release of DAO is increased, and DAO enters the extracellular space, lymphatic vessels and bloodstream, thus increasing the level of DAO in the plasma. As the activity of DAO is stable, its concentration in the blood can reflect the damage and restoration of the intestinal cavity [2] . Overactivation of leukocytes is an important pathological process of IBD.…”

“…In humans and rodents, DAO is found in various tissues, with small intestinal mucosa showing the highest enzymatic activity [5]. Furthermore, plasma DAO activity increases in parallel with DAO activity in the villi of the small intestinal mucosa in maturing rats [6,7] and correlates with the severity of small intestinal mucosal lesions induced by anti-cancer drugs [8]. In addition, serum levels of DAO activities seem to be a reliable indicator of intestinal mucosal integrity and reflect quantitative changes in the small bowel mucosal mass [6,9,10].…”
