Ischemic preconditioning attenuates portal venous plasma concentrations of purines following warm liver ischemia in man [PDF]

, 2005
Background/Aims: Degradation of adenine nucleotides to adenosine has been suggested to play a critical role in ischemic preconditioning (IPC). Thus, we questioned in patients undergoing partial hepatectomy whether (i) IPC will increase plasma purine ...

The ART of tumor immune escape

OncoImmunology, 2022
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 ...

Phosphoproteins and protein-kinase activity in isolated envelopes of pea (Pisum sativum L.) chloroplasts [PDF]

, 1985
A protein kinase was found in envelope membranes of purified pea (Pisum sativum L.) chloroplasts. Separation of the two envelope membranes showed that most of the enzyme activity was localized in the outer envelope.
