Can adenine nucleotides predict primary nonfunction of the human liver homograft? [PDF]
Sixty-eight primary liver grafts were analyzed to see whether adenine nucleotides (AN: ATP, ADP, and AMP) or purine catabolites (PC: adenosine, inosine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine) of tissue or effluent can predict primary graft nonfunction.

The influence of adenine and benzyladenine on rooting and development of Fuchsia hybrida cuttings
Cytokinins are a group of plant hormones stimulating, among others, axillary bud formation and inhibiting rhizogenesis. Adenine, their common component, often expresses cytokinin-like activity in plant development.

Sensitive Silver-Enhanced Microplate Apta-Enzyme Assay of Sb3+ Ions in Drinking and Natural Waters
The toxic effects of antimony pose risks to human health. Therefore, simple analytical techniques for its widescale monitoring in water sources are in demand. In this study, a sensitive microplate apta-enzyme assay for Sb3+ detection was developed.

Non-Empirically Tuned Range-Separated DFT Accurately Predicts Both Fundamental and Excitation Gaps in DNA and RNA Nucleobases [PDF]
Using a non-empirically tuned range-separated DFT approach, we study both the quasiparticle properties (HOMO-LUMO fundamental gaps) and excitation energies of DNA and RNA nucleobases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, guanine, and uracil).

Adenine decreases hypertrophic effects through interleukin-18 receptor
Cardiac hypertrophy is the main cause of heart failure. Levels of circulating interleukin-18 (IL-18) have been reported to increase in congestive heart disease and cardiac hypertrophy. Relationships among IL-18 levels, IL-18 receptor (IL-18R) expression,

Quadracyclic Adenine: A Non‐Perturbing Fluorescent Adenine Analogue
AbstractFluorescent‐base analogues (FBAs) comprise a group of increasingly important molecules for the investigation of nucleic acid structure and dynamics as well as of interactions between nucleic acids and other molecules. Here, we report on the synthesis, detailed spectroscopic characterisation and base‐pairing properties of a new environment ...

Interplay of 'induced fit' and preorganization in the ligand induced folding of the aptamer domain of the guanine binding riboswitch [PDF]
Riboswitches are highly structured elements in the 50-untranslated regions (50-UTRs) of messenger RNA that control gene expression by specifically binding to small metabolite molecules. They consist of an aptamer domain responsible for ligand binding and

Antagonism of Morphine Analgesia by Adenine, Adenosine, and Adenine Nucleotides
SummaryAntagonism of the antinociceptive action of morphine in mice by prior parenteral administration of cAMP has been confirmed using two additional analgesic testing procedures, the hot-plate test and the stretching test. The analgesia-antagonistic property, however, is not specific for cAMP because it also occurred after pretreatment with compounds
