Copper-induced oxidation of epinephrine: protective effect of D-DAHK, a synthetic analogue of the high affinity copper binding site of human albumin.

Abstract:

:Epinephrine is known to be rapidly oxidized during sepsis. Ischemia and acidosis, which often accompany sepsis, are associated with the release of weakly bound cupric ions from plasma proteins. We investigated whether copper promotes oxidation of epinephrine at both physiological and acidic pH and whether D-Asp-D-Ala-D-His-D-Lys (D-DAHK), a human albumin (HSA) N-terminus synthetic peptide with a high affinity for cupric ions, attenuates this oxidation. Epinephrine alone [100 microM] or with CuCl(2) [10 microM], and with CuCl(2) [10 microM] and D-DAHK [20 microM] at pH 7.4, 7.0, 6.5, and 6.0 were incubated for 1h at 37 degrees C. Epinephrine oxidation was measured by the spectrophotometric quantification of its oxidation product, adrenochrome. We found that adrenochrome increased, suggesting copper-induced oxidation of epinephrine. At pH 7.4, 7.0, 6.5, and 6.0, adrenochrome increased by 47%, 53%, 24%, and 6% above baseline, respectively. D-DAHK attenuated the copper-induced oxidation of epinephrine to baseline levels. These in vitro results indicate that copper-induced epinephrine oxidation is greatest at the physiological pH 7.4 as well as in severe acidosis, pH 7.0, and that D-DAHK completely inhibits this oxidation.
