Simultaneous determination of minoxidil and minoxidil sulfate by high-performance liquid chromatography with UV-detection and its applications

Medicine in Drug Discovery, 2020
Aims: Minoxidil is a hair growth drug for treating androgenetic alopecia. Although minoxidil is generally administered as a topical formulation, this prodrug must be converted to its active form (minoxidil sulfate) by sulfotransferase in hair follicle ...

Deep proteomic profiling unveils arylsulfatase A as a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis inducible hepatokine and regulator of glycemic control

Nature Communications, 2022
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and type 2 diabetes are closely linked, but the connecting pathophysiological mechanisms are incompletely understood.

Brain MRI and biological diagnosis in five Tunisians MLD patients

Diagnostic Pathology, 2012
Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is a recessive autosomal disease which is characterized by an accumulation of sulfatides in the central and peripheral nervous system. It is due to the enzyme deficiency of the sulfatide sulfatase i.e.

Measurement of sulfatides in the amniotic fluid supernatant: A useful tool in the prenatal diagnosis of metachromatic leukodystrophy

JIMD Reports, 2022
Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal disorder caused by deficiency of arylsulfatase A (ARSA), leading to an accumulation of sulfatides.

Soil enzymatic activity under coffee cultivation with different water regimes associated to liming and intercropped brachiaria

Ciência Rural, 2021
: This research evaluated the effects of coffee cultivation with two different water regimes associated or not with liming and the presence/absence of brachiaria as intercrop on the activities of the soil enzymes β-glucosidase, arylsulfatase and acid ...

Identification of a novel mutation in ARSA gene in three patients of an Iranian family with metachromatic leukodystrophy disorder

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2017
Metachromatic leukodystrophy disorder (MLD) is an autosomal recessive and lysosomal storage disease. The disease is caused by the deficiency of the enzyme arylsulfatase A (ARSA) which is encoded by the ARSA gene. Different mutations have been reported in

A patient presenting a 22q13 deletion associated with an apparently balanced translocation t(16;22): an illustrative case in the investigation of patients with low ARSA activity

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2012
A 10-year-old speechless, mentally deficient male, with low arylsulfatase A (ARSA) activity, and presumably, methachromatic leukodystrophy, underwent genetic evaluation.

Soil enzymatic activity and wheat grain yield under cover crop systems

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2023
For years, the impacts of using cover crops in productive systems have been measured by their relation with soil chemical and physical characteristics. Consequently, the effects on the soil microbiological characteristics have been little explored.

Relative Frequency of Metachromatic Leukodystrophy in Egypt: A Reference Laboratory Report

Frontiers in Bioscience-Scholar
Background: Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) is an autosomal recessive hereditary neurodegenerative disease caused by a deficiency in arylsulfatase A (ARSA) activity and belongs to the group of lysosomal storage diseases.
