Clinical Implications of “Tailored” Antiplatelet Therapy in Patients With Chronic Total Occlusion
Background Clopidogrel nonresponsiveness is a prognostic marker after percutaneous coronary intervention. Prasugrel and ticagrelor provide a better platelet inhibition and represent the first‐line antiplatelet treatment in acute coronary syndrome.

Crystallization of Adenylylsulfate Reductase from Desulfovibrio gigas: A Strategy Based on Controlled Protein Oligomerization [PDF]
Adenylylsulfate reductase (adenosine 5′-phosphosulfate reductase, APS reductase or APSR, E.C.1.8.99.2) catalyzes the conversion of APS to sulfite in dissimilatory sulfate reduction. APSR was isolated and purified directly from massive anaerobically grown

A General Approach Towards Triazole-Linked Adenosine Diphosphate Ribosylated Peptides and Proteins.
Current methods to prepare adenosine diphosphate ribosylated (ADPr) peptides are not generally applicable due to the labile nature of this post-translational modification and its incompatibility with strong acidic conditions used in standard solid-phase ...

Neurochemical measurement of adenosine in discrete brain regions of five strains of inbred mice. [PDF]
Adenosine (ADO), a non-classical neurotransmitter and neuromodulator, and its metabolites adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP), have been shown to play an important role in a number of biochemical ...

The ART of tumor immune escape
We recently identified the adenosine-5′-diphosphate (ADP)–ribosyltransferase-1 (ART1) as a novel immune checkpoint expressed by cancer cells. ART1 utilizes free nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to mono-ADP ...
