摘要
Tissue transglutaminase (TG2) catalyzes the cross-linking of proteins TG2 has been implicated in fibrosis and vascular calcification, both of which lead to a common feature of aging known as arterial stiffness In order to probe the role of TG2 in arterial rigidification, we have prepared a fluorescent irreversible inhibitor as a probe for TG2 activity (RhodB-PGG-K(Acr)-LPF-OH) This probe was synthesized on solid support, characterized kinetically (K-inact = 0 68 min(-1), K-1 = 79 mu M), and then used to stain the aorta from rats used as a model of isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) Interestingly, TG2 activity was thus shown to increase over 4 weeks of the hypertension model, corresponding with the previously observed increase in arterial stiffness These results clearly suggest an association between TG2 and the phenomenon of arterial rigidification
