Heparin strongly decreases the rate of inhibition of neutrophil elastase by alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor

Heparin depresses the second-order rate constant ka for the inhibition of neutrophil elastase by alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor. High molecular mass heparin decreases ka from 1.3 x 10(7) M-1 s-1 to a limit of 4.6 x 10(4) M-1 s-1. Low molecular mass heparin is about 7-fold less effective. Dermatan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate are less efficient. Heparin preparations used in clinical care also strongly depress ka when tested at concentrations corresponding to their clinical efficacy. Heparin also decreases the ka for the elastase/eglin c and the cathepsin G/alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor systems but not that for the alpha 1-proteinase inhibitor/pancreatic elastase or trypsin pairs. These results, together with Sepharose-heparin binding studies, indicate that the ka-depressing effect of the polymer is related to its ability to form a tight complex with elastase but not with alpha 1- proteinase inhibitor. One mol of high molecular mass heparin binds 3 mol of neutrophil elastase with a Kd of 3.3 nM. Low molecular mass heparin binds elastase with a 1:1 stoichiometry and a Kd of 89 nM. For both heparins ka is lowest when elastase is fully saturated with heparin. From this we conclude that heparin decreases ka, because the heparin-elastase complex is able to slowly react with alpha 1- proteinase inhibitor and not because the inhibitor slowly dissociates the heparin-elastase complex. These findings may have important pathophysiological bearing.
