Antiaggregant effect of taurine chloramines in the presence of serum albumin.

The effects of taurine chloramine derivatives on initial aggregation of isolated platelets suspended in buffered saline were studied. Inhibition of ADP-induced aggregation in pure cell suspension depended on the structure of chloramine antiaggregants. The most effective of them was N,N-dichlorotaurine; its concentration needed for 50% inhibition of aggregation was about 0.

Structure and oxidation capacity of amino acid chloramine derivatives and their effects on platelet aggregation.

Comparison of antiaggregation capacity of N-chloramine acids with different position of the chloramine group in the molecule showed that in the most efficient compounds the distance between the chloramine and carboxyl groups was 3-5 carbon atoms. This feature of antiaggregation activity was not related to the difference in oxidation capacity of N-chloramine acids. It was hypothesized that the revealed structural dependence of antiaggregation activity of N-chloramine acids is determined by the structure of platelet membrane, in particular, the presence of a negatively charged group near the site of interaction between N-chloramine acids and platelet membrane.

Antithrombotic activity of N,N-dichlorotaurine on mouse model of thrombosis in vivo.

Intravenous injection of chloramine derivatives of amino acids and taurine reduced the mortality rate in mice with thrombosis induced by intravenous injection of ADP or collagen-epinephrine mixture. Intravenous injection of N,N-dichlorotaurine caused 50% inhibition of platelet aggregation induced by ADP and measured in the platelet-enriched plasma in vitro. The antithrombotic effect of chloramine derivatives of amino acids and taurine is related to their ability to suppress functional activity of platelets.

[Kinetic characteristics of luminol chemiluminescence caused by chloramine compounds].

The decaying part of the kinetic curves of luminol chemiluminescence (0.02 mM) induced by N-chlorphenylalanine is approximated by an exponential dependence, which varies insignificantly as chloramine concentration is changed from 0.2 to 0.

[Chemiluminescence in oxidation of luminol by chloramine derivatives of biogenic compounds].

Chloramine derivatives of amino acids induce chemiluminescence of a luminol solution. The chemiluminescence is more prolonged than the emission of luminol produced by hypochlorite. Persistent chemiluminescence also appears under the action of hypochlorite on a mixture of luminol and amino acids.
