Cascading reaction of arginase and urease on a graphene-based FET for ultrasensitive, real-time detection of arginine [PDF]
Herein, a biosensor based on a reduced graphene oxide field effect transistor (rGO-FET) functionalized with the cascading enzymes arginase and urease was developed for the detection of L-arginine.

Antileishmanial Activity of 4,8-Dimethoxynaphthalenyl Chalcones on Leishmania amazonensis
Leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by Leishmania species. Available therapeutic options have several limitations. The drive to develop new, more potent, and selective antileishmanial agents is thus a major goal.

Genetic microheterogeneity and phenotypic variation of arginase in clinical isolates [PDF]
Background: Clinical isolates of the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori display a high level of genetic macro- and microheterogeneity, featuring a panmictic, rather than clonal structure. The ability of H.

Disturbance of Arginase Activity and Nitric Oxide Levels in Iraqi Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
This study is an attempt to find whether arginine metabolism dysregulation by arginase activity is related to hyperglycemia, followed by changes in nitric oxide (NO) generation in type 2 diabetic patients. This study includes 42 control subjects (Group I)

SummaryMouse peritoneal macrophages in culture released a macromolecular factor capable of inhibiting mouse L1210 lymphoma cells in vitro. The factor was proved to be arginase by several criteria. The inhibition was reversed by adding arginine or citrulline to culture, the arginine in the culture medium was consumed, and the guanido group of arginine ...

Mechanisms involved in the remyelinating effect of sildenafil [PDF]
Remyelination occurs in demyelinated lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS) and pharmacological treatments that enhance this process will critically impact the long term functional outcome in the disease.

SummarySerum arginase activity has been determined in 34 healthy blood donors. A mean value 0.06 ± 0.09 μmole urea formed/ml serum was found with a range of .00 to 0.36 μmole. In sera of 19 patients with proven or suspected liver disease the mean arginase activity was 1.36 with a range of .00 to 6.08 μmoles formed/ml serum under the condition of assay.

Enhancement of radiosensitivity by the novel anticancer quinolone derivative vosaroxin in preclinical glioblastoma models [PDF]
Purpose: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive brain tumor. The activity of vosaroxin, a first-in-class anticancer quinolone derivative that intercalates DNA and inhibits topoisomerase II, was investigated in GBM preclinical models as a ...
