Abstract
In this study, the effects of omeprazole, famotidine, and ranitidine on bovine stomach carbonic anhydrase (EC 4.2.1.1.) isoenzymes have been investigated in vitro. Bovine stomach carbonic anhydrase (CA) was purified from four different cell localisations of bovine stomach using affinity chromatography by Sepharose 4B-L-tyrosine sulphanilamide. The inhibition or activation effects of three different medical drugs on CA isoenzymes were determined using esterase activity and the CO(2)-hydratase method by plotting activity % vs. [medical drug]. The K(i) values for omeprazole, famotidine, and ranitidine were determined in all localization CA, respectively. The I(50) values of the drugs exhibiting an inhibition effect were found by means of these graphs. It was observed that omeprazole, famotidine, and ranitidine showed inhibition of bovine stomach CA activity. In addition, in vivo studies were performed for these medical drugs in Sprague-Dawley rats. It was demonstrated that CA in erythrocytes was significantly inhibited by these drugs to 3 h.
