“Co-incubation of the cells with known enzyme inhibitors including captopril (an ACE inhibitor), thiorphan (an EP24.11 inhibitor), and EDTA (an EP24.15 inhibitor) inhibited the formation of LHRH 4−10, LHRH 7−10, and LHRH 6−10 respectively.”
“ Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA, 5 mM), sodium deoxycholate (SDA, 10 mM) and bacitracin (3.5 or 9 mM) inhibited the degradation of LHRH in mucosal homogenates from small intestine and hindgut.”
“Under standard … 5 mM EDTA efficiently prevented the … and rat GRF for at least 3 h. Association of the ligand was time-dependent: equilibrium was reached within 30 min of … degrees C and remained stable for an additional 150 min (K1 = 5.01 +/- 0.86 nM-1.min-1).”
