[Conjugates of pancreatic ribonuclease and ligand-free human serum albumin].

Conjugates of pancreatic RNase and ligand-free human serum albumin (LFHSA) have been obtained. The number of hydrophobic binding sites both for initial HSA and LFHSA has been determined by the polarised luminescence method. Interaction between RNase and HSA involves additional electrovalent linkage.

[Permeation of pancreatic ATPase through the blood-brain barrier into the cerebral parenchyma].

Penetration of exogenous RNAases, native and albumin polymer-bound, from circulation into the brain parenchyma was studied. Native pancreatic RNAase was found to extend through the hematoencephalic barrier; maximal enzymatic activity was detected within 15-30 min after administration into a rat tail vein. The enzyme activity was not observed within 90 min both in blood serum and brain tissue.
