Abstract
Peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) plays a critical role in many autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis. Herein, a trypsin assisted highly immunoassay method was established to determine PAD4 activity and screen potent inhibitors from herbal plants extracts and purified natural products. The method was applied to determine endogenous PAD4 activity in both cell and tissue lysates, as well as the inhibitory effects of 20 herbal plants and 50 purified natural products. The Cinnamomi ramulus extract showed strongest inhibitory potency with IC50 value lower than 5 μg/mL. Meanwhile, pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), widely used as a dietary supplement, was discovered as a promising PAD4 inhibitor with an IC50 value lower than 4 μM. The inhibition kinetic analysis, drug affinity response target stability (DARTS) and molecular docking were performed to confirm the interaction between PQQ and PAD4. This method has great potential for researchers to monitor activities and discover potential inhibitors of PAD4.
期刊介绍:
Talanta provides a forum for the publication of original research papers, short communications, and critical reviews in all branches of pure and applied analytical chemistry. Papers are evaluated based on established guidelines, including the fundamental nature of the study, scientific novelty, substantial improvement or advantage over existing technology or methods, and demonstrated analytical applicability. Original research papers on fundamental studies, and on novel sensor and instrumentation developments, are encouraged. Novel or improved applications in areas such as clinical and biological chemistry, environmental analysis, geochemistry, materials science and engineering, and analytical platforms for omics development are welcome.
Analytical performance of methods should be determined, including interference and matrix effects, and methods should be validated by comparison with a standard method, or analysis of a certified reference material. Simple spiking recoveries may not be sufficient. The developed method should especially comprise information on selectivity, sensitivity, detection limits, accuracy, and reliability. However, applying official validation or robustness studies to a routine method or technique does not necessarily constitute novelty. Proper statistical treatment of the data should be provided. Relevant literature should be cited, including related publications by the authors, and authors should discuss how their proposed methodology compares with previously reported methods.
