Abstract:
:Peptide extracts of rat brain powerfully inhibited the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity of rat brain homogenate. Similar extracts of ox brain showed comparable although less potent activity. Preliminary investigation of the physicochemical properties of brain extracts indicated that the rat brain extract contained an active peptide of low molecular weight (about 1400), whereas ox brain contained two such peptides (about 1400 and 900). These studies indicate that endogenous oligopeptides that inhibit cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase are present in brain. Experiments on several pure peptides known to be present in brain. Experiments on several pure peptides known to be present in the CNS showed that the majority were inactive against brain phosphodiesterase, but ACTH(1-24), somatostatin, substance P and Lys8-vasopressin, in descending order of potency, were active. To help distinguish the peptides found in rat and ox brain extracts from known peptides, preliminary analyses of amino acid composition were performed. These suggested that the peptides found in brain extracts were distinct from known peptides having the ability to inhibit cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase.
