Indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronide and 3-indoxyl sulfate in plasma of hemodialysis patients.
    Clinical nephrology, 1996, Volume: 45, Issue:4

    The content of indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronide, which has been found in patients' plasma as a new indicator of renal failure, logarithmically correlated with that of 3-indoxyl sulfate (indican) in the plasma of hemodialysis patients, showing another weak correlation with beta(2)-microglobulin content. The content ratio of indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronide to 3-indoxyl sulfate (IG/IS) gradually increased depending on the duration of hemodialysis treatment. Indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronide could be easily dialyzed in the hemodialysis treatment, in contrast to hardly dialyzable 3-indoxyl sulfate which bound to plasma proteins. Therefore, glucuronide conjugation in indole excretion is favorable for hemodialysis patients in that it eliminates indoxyl compounds in blood by hemodialysis.

Indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronide, the primary emitter of low-level chemiluminescence in plasma of hemodialysis patients.
    Clinical chemistry, 1994, Volume: 40, Issue:8

    Characteristic light emission induced by the oxidation of hydroxyl radicals has been found in plasma of hemodialysis patients (Agatsuma et al., Clin Chem 1992;38:48-55). We purified a primary emitter, a chemiluminescent component peaking at 430 nm, by anion-exchange chromatography and reversed-phase HPLC. By using proton nuclear magnetic resonance and authentic indoxyl compounds, we determined the primary emitter to be indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronide. Absorption and fluorescence spectra of the purified sample coincided well with those of authentic indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronide, as did the peak in the chemiluminescence emission spectrum. Retention time of the purified sample on reversed-phase HPLC, measured by fluorescence, was also in accordance with that of indoxyl-beta-D-glucuronide. To our knowledge, this is the first identification of a primary emitter of low-level chemiluminescence from a biological source.
