Evaluation of In vivo Bioactivity of a Mutated Streptokinase

Abstract:
Background
Immunogenicity of Streptokinase, as a thrombolytic drug, has limited its clinical use. Elimination of the amino acid residues that are responsible for immunogenicity while dont affect the bioactivity of streptokinase is worthy. Recently, we modified the streptokinase through the elimination of 42 amino acids from its C-terminal and assessed its bioactivity in vitro. In this study, bioactivity of the mutated-streptokinase determined and compared with those of commercially available streptokinase (Heberkinase) in rabbits with induced blood clot.Materials And Methods
Recombinant mutated streptokinase was purified and its lipopolysaccharide contained remove and evaluated by LAL test. Thrombolytic activity of drug was evaluated by rabbit jugular vein as in vivo thrombosis model. The thrombolytic property of the drug was evaluated with determining of D-dimer in plasma.Results
The results showed in vivo bioactivity of both truncated and commercial streptokinase (pConclusion
Clinical use of the r-streptokinase requires more modification to restore its activity in vivo. This product may be a promising choice for clinical use after confirmation of its stability and non-immunogenicity.Keywords:
