Kinetic modelling of the role of the aldehyde dehydrogenase enzyme and the breast cancer resistance protein in drug resistance and transport [PDF]
A compartmental model for the in vitro uptake kinetics of the anti-cancer agent topotecan (TPT) has been extended from a previously published model. The extended model describes the drug activity and delivery of the pharmacologically active form to the ...

A Prodrug Strategy for the In Vivo Imaging of Aldehyde Dehydrogenase Activity [PDF]
Therapy resistance is one of the biggest challenges facing clinical oncology. Despite a revolution in new anti-cancer drugs targeting multiple components of the tumour microenvironment, acquired or innate resistance frequently blunts the efficacy of ...

Functional characterization of SlscADH1, a fruit-ripening associated short-chain alcohol dehydrogenase of tomato [PDF]
A tomato short-chain dehydrogenase-reductase (SlscADH1) is preferentially expressed in fruit with a maximum expression at the breaker stage while expression in roots, stems, leaves and flowers is very weak.

The Role of Pesticide-Induced Aldehyde Dehydrogenase Inhibition in the Pathogenesis of Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder particularly characterized by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Its etiology is unknown but likely includes both genetic and environmental factors.

Drosophila Melanogaster as a Model for Molybdo-Flavoenzyme Mediated Protection against Chemical and Physical Stress [PDF]
Aldehyde oxidase (AO) and xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) are molybdo-flavoenzymes (MFEs) involved in the oxidation of hundreds of endogenous and exogenous aldehydes and N-heterocyclic compounds many of which are drugs, vitamins and environmental ...
