Abstract

Cell surface ectopeptidase activity of purified, cultured large vessel and microvessel-derived endothelial cells (EC) was studied. Degradation of thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH), and production of cyclo-His-Pro was significantly increased (P < 0.001) in large vessel EC compared with microcapillary EC. Since the rate of catabolism in the microvascular capillary bed is 5 times less than that in the large vessel wall, peptide concentrations are likely maintained longer in close proximity to their site of biosynthesis, where they are presumably most active.
