TP508是由23个氨基酸残基构成的多肽，它代表了人凝血素的第508-530位氨基酸序列，被认为是高亲和性受体与凝血素的结合域。
TP508 is a 23 amino acid synthetic peptide representing residues 508-530 of human prothrombin which is identified as a potential receptor-binding domain based on competition for high-affinity thrombin binding to fibroblasts.
TP508 treatment reverses radiation effects on NO signaling, restores tube formation and accelerates the repair of radiation-induced DSB in irradiated human endothelial cells[1]. TP508 injection increases responsiveness of endothelial cells from aortic explants to VEGF-stimulated angiogenesis in vitro. TP508 stimulation does not significantly affect the VEGF mRNA levels in normoxic or hypoxic cells[2]. TP508 acts as an antagonist for the effects of thrombin. TP508 peptide inhibits these thrombin-induced effects through a RGD and αvβ3-related mechanism[4].
TP508 (500 μg) in sham-irradiated animals significantly increases the amount of endothelial cell sprouting from aortic explants. TP508 significantly increases the sprouting in sham-irradiated and irradiated animals, more than doubling the amount of sprouting in explants from animals at all exposure doses. TP508 (10 mg/kg) given 24 h after 8.5 Gy gamma irradiation significantly increases 30-day survival in mice, from 26.7 to 73.3%[1]. TP508 injection increases endothelial sprouting and potentiates VEGF-stimulated angiogenesis[2]. In type I diabetic swine, TP508 (1 mg/kg, infusion) reduces infarct size after IR[3].

Animal experiment: | Mice: One hour after irradiation, mice are placed in a restrainer and intravenously (i.v.) injected through the tail vein with a single dose of TP508 in 100 μL sterile saline or 100 μL sterile saline alone. After 24 h, the mice are euthanized by CO2 inhalation and thoracic aortas are isolated from TP508- or saline-alone treated mice and transferred to culture dishes containing cold sterile EBM. The periaortic fibro-adipose tissue is removed under a dissecting microscope and aortas are rinsed with cold EBM and cut transversely to create 1 mm aortic rings (appr 10 per aorta). Aortic rings are cut, opened, and the inner endothelial surface is placed directly on Matrigel matrix-coated 24-well plates. Aortic explants are cultured in a 5% CO2 atmosphere at 37°C in EGM containing 5% FBS and SingleQuots endothelial growth factors. Endothelial cell sprouting is monitored daily by inverted phase contrast microscopy and images are captured using SPOT RT camera and advanced imaging software at 40× and 100× magnification. |
