Abstract
Tissue engineering utilizes an interdisciplinary approach to generate constructs for the treatment and repair of diseased organs. Generation of small vessels as vascular grafts or as envisioned central vessel for vascularized constructs is still a challenge. Here, the decellularization of porcine vessels by a non-detergent based protocol was developed and investigated. Perfusion-decellularization with sodium hydroxide solution resulted in removal of cellular material throughout the whole length of the vessel while preserving structural and mechanical integrity. A re-endothelialization of the retrieved matrix with human umbilical vein endothelial cells and cardiac endothelial cells was achieved through rotation-based seeding employing a custom-made bioreactor. A confluent monolayer was detected on the entire luminal surface. Thus, a non-detergent-based decellularization method allowing the re-endothelialization of the luminal surface was developed in this study, thereby paving the way for future implementation of the resulting construct as vascular graft or as central vessel for tissue engineered constructs in need of a perfusion system with readily available anastomosis sites.

Abstract
A novel assay for antibody captured bioactivity (ACB) has been developed to quantitate deoxyribonuclease I (DNase) in human serum samples. The procedure is simple, sensitive, reproducible and has a high throughput. Serum samples are diluted a minimum of 1/4 and assayed in 96-well microtiter plates coated with polyclonal antibodies specific to DNase. The serum is removed from the wells, the plates are washed and the antibody bound DNase is incubated at 37 degrees C with a DNA-methyl green substrate. The assay is sensitive to 0.8 ng/ml with a range to 10 +/- 2 ng/ml, depending upon the time of incubation (48 +/- 2 h). The recovery of rhDNase spiked into human serum samples averaged 84.4% +/- 6.7% in sera diluted 1/4 and 97.8% +/- 7.2% at a 1/8 serum dilution. Intra-assay precision ranged from 3.0 to 7.5% coefficient of variation (% CV) and interassay precision ranged from 5.0 to 10.2% CV for spiked serum controls. Endogenous DNase concentrations in 27 normal human sera were found to range from < 2.0 to 11.4 ng/ml. Endogenous DNase-like activity was found in Cynomolgus and Rhesus monkey sera; this activity diluted linearly and did not interfere with accurate quantitation of added rh DNase. No endogenous DNase-like activity could be detected in ten Sprague-Dawley rat sera. Bovine pancreatic DNase was found to have only very low cross-reactivity in this assay system. The ACB assay format can potentially be applied to the quantitation of other enzymes in serum and other biological samples.

Abstract
Changes in serum alkaline DNase activities might predict the therapeutic response in various malignant diseases. A decrease in serum alkaline DNase activity within days from the onset of therapy has been related to tumour necrosis and may be a possible sign of clinical response to effective treatment. To study if changes in serum alkaline DNase activity could be induced by non-tumour related tissue destruction, sera were collected on several occasions perioperatively in 18 patients undergoing surgery for benign gynaecological disease. Thirty apparently healthy women served as the control group. A significant decrease (P less than 0.001) in serum alkaline DNase activity was observed after an overnight fast in both groups of women. In contrast to the control women, the operated patients showed a significant decrease (P less than 0.001) in serum alkaline DNase activity throughout the operative period and 1 week postoperatively. We conclude that serum alkaline DNase activity is influenced by dietary factors as well as surgical trauma. These factors may limit the clinical usefulness of SADA in patients with cancer.

Abstract
The objective was to evaluate if variations in serum alkaline DNase activity (SADA) can predict the effects of therapy in women with early stages of primary cervical carcinoma. 29 out of 33 patients had no evidence of disease after therapy. Only 5 out of the 29 women showed increased SADA levels after therapy compared with the pretreatment SADA value. Of the 4 women with evidence of disease after therapy, 3 had unchanged or decreased SADA levels. We conclude that serum alkaline DNase activity seems to have little to offer in predicting the effects of treatment in stage I and stage II cervical carcinoma.

Abstract
The present study evaluated serum ribonuclease activity (SRA) in patients with inflammatory and neoplastic pancreatic diseases. RNase determination was carried out using t-RNA (T) from E. coli MRE 600 at pH 7.4 and polycytidylic acid (poly-C) (P) at pH 6.6 as RNA substrates with RNase A from bovine pancreas as reference enzyme. Healthy volunteers had a SRA of T: 160 +/- 12 and P: 482 +/- 24 ngeq/mL (mean +/- SEM (n]. In patients with acute interstitial pancreatitis (AIP), SRA was similar to healthy controls (T: 166 +/- 14; P: 474 +/- 30 ngeq/mL). Patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) had increased SRA (T: 278 +/- 49; P: 791 +/- 145 ngeq/mL, p less than 0.01, compared to controls). SRA values were also increased in patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) with T: 224 +/- 15 ngeq/mL (p less than 0.01) and in patients with pancreatic carcinoma (PCA) with T: 331 +/- 35 (p less than 0.001 vs controls, p less than 0.01 vs CP). Increased SRA was detected in patients with renal insufficiency (T: 2576 +/- 195 ngeq/mL, p less than 0.001). Diagnostic discrimination between AIP and ANP was achieved in 69% using T-SRA (sensitivity 31%, specificity 88%), and in 78% using P-SRA (sensitivity 54%, specificity 92%). Discrimination between CP and pancreatic carcinoma was possible in 68% (sensitivity 67%, specificity 71%). The diagnostic value of serum RNase is limited because of its low sensitivity, but increased T-SRA above a cutoff of 250 ngeq/mL and increased P-SRA above a cutoff of 620 ngeq/mL are specific for detecting pancreatic necrosis in the absence of renal impairment. The kidney is a major site for SRA clearance.

Abstract
Two ribonucleases (RNases), one active against RNA as well as poly(C) and the other more markedly against poly(C), were isolated from human erythrocytes by acetone fractionation in the presence of 0.25 M H2SO4, followed by a series of column chromatographies. The purified enzymes appeared homogeneous as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate--polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and were tentatively designated RNase HE-1 and RNase HE-2. The content of RNase HE-1 in erythrocytes was much higher than that of RNase HE-2. The molecular mass of RNase HE-1 was determined to be 18,000 and 16,000 Da, and that of RNase He-2 39,000 and 31,000 Da, by SDS-PAGE and gel filtration, respectively. The catalytic properties and structural features of RNase HE-1 including the amino acid composition and N-terminal amino acid sequence indicated that its protein moiety is strictly related to a nonsecretory RNase purified from human urine (Yasuda et al., 1988, Biochim. Biophys. Acta 965, 185-195). In particular, the N-terminal amino acid sequence up to the 32nd residue was identical with that of urine nonsecretory RNase reported recently (Beintema et al., 1988, Biochemistry 27, 4530-4538). Furthermore, RNase HE-1 was immunologically indistinguishable from urine nonsecretory RNase, but clearly differed from urine secretory RNase. On the other hand, erythrocyte RNase HE-2 was enzymologically and immunologically similar to urine secretory RNase.

Abstract
A reliable radioimmunoassay (RIA) for human deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) is described. Using delayed addition of tracer antigen, the method is sensitive (9.5 reproducible and specific. A good parallel relationship was observed between the standard curve and dilution curves for human urine and human pancreatic juice. G-actin, a naturally occurring DNase I inhibitor, caused no change in the immunoreactivity of DNase I. In healthy individuals, aged 11-90 yr, the mean serum DNase I was 18.4 ng/ml (SD 6.7 ng/ml). Increased serum DNase I occurred in patients with acute pancreatitis, renal failure, and in about one-third of patients with various malignant tumors.

Abstract
The purification procedure for a nuclease from human serum is described. It includes ammonium sulfate precipitation, chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex and on Sephacryl-S 200, and preparative electrophoresis. The enzyme purified about 2000-fold, is homogeneous in a sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoretic system, where it has a mol. wt of 78,000. The pH optimum lies around pH 6.5; it is a sugar-nonspecific endonuclease.

Abstract
Serum deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) activity in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients was shown to be lower than that of healthy laboratory personnel, rheumatoid arthritis, and scleroderma patients (P less than 0.001). The decrease in DNase I activity in SLE sera was not due to the effect of various autoantibodies or to heat labile DNase I inhibitor. A relationship between serum DNase I activity and active SLE was demonstrated. Patients with active lupus nephritis had the lowest levels of enzymatic activity.

Abstract
A simple radial diffusion technique is described for assaying deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) activity in whole human plasma and serum. Enzymatic activity was calculated from a standard curve constructed from the studies on the hydrolysis of calf thymus DNA by bovine pancreatic DNase of known concentrations. The assay was shown to be specific for nucleases which are active at neutral pH and require magnesium ions for activation. There was no significant difference in DNase I activity in plasma compared with that in serum from normal individuals (P greater than 0.05). The DNase I activity of 35 normal human sera was 26.1 +/- 9.2 ng/ml and ranged from 10.8-48.5 ng/ml. This technique may prove useful for the evaluation of DNase I activity in crude biological fluids and is not affected by the presence of enzymatic inhibitors and/or activators.

Abstract
Serum Deoxyribonuclease (DNase) micro-assay method was developed using 32P-labelled E. coli DNA as substrate. The serum DNase showed maximum activity at pH 7.5. It required Mg+ for activity, and was inhibited by EDTA or EGTA. The enzyme was also inhibited by actin (60-65%) or bovine pancreatic DNase I antibody (40-45%). The serum DNase activity was markedly increased following endoscopic retrograde pancreatography (ERP) examination. These results imply that serum DNase activity is mostly at least 60-65% pancreatic DNase I.

Abstract
RNAase activity was measured in plasma and leucocytes of manourished children. In subjects suffering from kwashiorkor, alk. RNAase levels in plasma and leucocytes were markedly raised and they returned to normal after therapy. However, the enzyme activity was not altered in undernourished children. These data indicate that circulating level of alkaline. RNAase is not a useful parameter for detecting milder grades of protein-calorie malnutrition (PCM).

Abstract
Acid-thermostable ribonucleases were isolated from human pancreas, duodenal contents, liver, spleen, serum and urine, and purified 15--1000-fold. The pH optima, ionic requirements, and some of the specificity requirements, of these enzymes were investigated. The isolated enzymes formed two distinct groups: (a) The ribonucleases of the pancreas, duodenal contents and fraction A of serum and urine exhibit a pH optimum of 8.5, are inhibited by An2+ and Cu2+, and relatively rapidly hydrolyze the synthetic substrate uridine 3'-(alpha-naphthylphosphate); (b) the ribonucleases of the liver and spleen, and of fractions B of the serum and urine, with a pH optimum of 7, are less sensitive to An2+ and Cu2+, and exhibit negligible activity versus uridine 3'-(alpha-naphthylphosphate). Determination of the serum level of pancreatic-type ribonuclease activity, with the use of uridine 3'-(alpha-naphthylphosphate) or RNA as substrates, appears to be a valid diagnostic tool for pancreatic fibrosis in children.

Abstract
Various tissues and cells in culture contain a specific inhibitor of DNase I (EC 3.1.4.5). In this paper evidence is presented that this inhibitor is actin, one of the major structural proteins of muscle and nonmuscle cells. (a) The inhibitor is a major cellular component constituting 5-10% of the soluble protein. (b) It migrates with actin on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, having a characteristic molecular weight of 42,000. (c) It has an amino-acid composition closely similar to that of actin. (d) The peptide maps of the two proteins are nearly identical. (e) Skeletal muscle actin inhibits the enzymatic activity of DNase I. (f) DNase I-agarose affinity chromatography quantitatively retains purified skeletal muscle actin, and actin, specifically, from high-speed supernatants of whole cell extracts. (g) An antibody to purified inhibitor protein from calf thymus, used in indirect immunofluorescence on cells grown in culture, stains a two-dimensional network of fibers similar to that seen with an actin-specific antibody.The observation that actin can be isolated by DNase-agarose affinity chromatography provides a useful tool for the biochemical study of actin under different physiological conditions.

Abstract
Rabbits immunized with ultraviolet-irradiated DNA (UV-DNA) produced high titers of serum antibody. This experimental model was studied to determine if injection of antigen (UV-DNA) intravenously into immunized animals would induce glomerulonephritis and proteinuria. Proteinuria was observed several days after the start of daily intravenous injections into immunized animals and was sustained as long as injections were continued, but fell to normal values after stopping antigen administration. The kidneys showed glomerulitis sometimes associated with focal proliferative lesions, and immunofluorescence showed rabbit Ig and C3 in glomeruli. By electron microscopy, electron-dense subendothelial deposits were seen. Sucrose density gradient analyses of sera immediately after antigen injections suggested the presence of immune complexes of DNA and antibody since both heavy sedimenting and 7S Ig were detected. After digestion with deoxyribonuclease rabbit Ig could be found only in the 7S sedimenting fractions. Intravenous injection of UV-DNA into normal, nonimmune animals did not produce heavy sedimenting Ig or abnormal sedimentation patterns. These studies with an experimental model might provide insight into pathogenetic mechanisms operating in systemic lupus erythematosus where the importance of DNA-anti-DNA immune complexes have been documented. The studies suggested that gradual accumulation of DNA immune complexes in glomeruli might be one mechanism causing renal functional abnormalities.
