[Thrombin substrates containing aminobenzoic acids].

In order to study the interactions of synthetic substrates with the active site of thrombin the compounds of R-CO-Abz-Arg-OMe were obtained which contained, o-, m- and p-amino benzoic acids (Abz) at P2-subsite. R-CO-moiety was butyric, perfluorobutyric, benzoyl, 2-fluorobenzoyl and perfluorobenzoyl groups. Kinetic parameters of their hydrolysis by thrombin were measured and antithrombin activity was studied. Introduction of fluorine atoms into N-acyl groups caused insignificant alterations of the substrate or inhibitor properties of the compounds containing N-butyric group, but significantly influenced the substrate properties, when peptides contained N-benzoyl group. The interaction mechanism of the obtained substrates with thrombin was proposed.

Simultaneous assessments of exocrine pancreatic function by cholesteryl-[14C]octanoate breath test and measurement of plasma p-aminobenzoic acid.

Two noninvasive tests for assessing pancreatic exocrine function, the cholesteryl-[14C]octanoate breath test and the HPLCN-benzoyl-tyrosyl-p-aminobenzoic acid/p-aminosalicylic acid (NBT-PABA/PAS) test, were simultaneously performed in nine patients with pancreatic exocrine insufficiency due to chronic pancreatitis and in nine healthy volunteers. 14CO2 output in breath and plasma PABA concentration rose slowly in patients but increased rapidly in healthy subjects. The measurement time giving the best discrimination between both groups was 120 min for the cholesteryl-[14C]octanoate breath test and 90 min for the plasma PABA test. At these points, both single-sample tests had essentially identical diagnostic sensitivity. The diagnostic sensitivities of the two single-sample tests were equal to that of the cumulative 6-h urinary PABA recovery and the cumulative 6-h urinary PABA/PAS ratio. We conclude that, for both the cholesteryl-[14C]octanoate breath test and the plasma PABA test, a single test sample is sufficient for rapid detection of impaired exocrine pancreatic function.
