| | Plasma Kallikrein Activity Assay |
| Description: | Plasma kallikrein activity assay. The effect of compounds of the invention on human plasma kallikrein activity was determined using the chromogenic substrates (DiaPharma Group, Inc., West Chester, Ohio, USA). In these experiments, 2 nM kallikrein (Enzyme Research Laboratories, South Bend, Ind., USA) was incubated with 80 μM S2302 (H-D-Pro-Phe-Arg-p-nitroaniline) in the absence or presence of increasing concentrations of compounds of the invention in a final volume of 200 μL Tris-HCl buffer (200 mM NaCl; 2.5 mM CaCl2; 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.8). After incubation at 30° C., the activity of kallikrein was measured as a change in absorbance at OD 405 nm using BioTek PowerWave X340 Microplate Reader (Winooski, Vt., USA). Data were analyzed using SigmaPlot software (Systat Software, Inc., San Jose, Calif., USA) (Four Parameter Logistic Curve). Ki values for the inhibitors were determined using the ChengPrusoff equation.The compounds disclosed in this application have Ki values less than 1 micromolar (μM) for the plasma kallikrein enzyme. |
