Elevated liver enzymes is not an impediment to allopurinol dose escalation: an observational cohort study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Routine liver enzyme monitoring is advocated while on allopurinol but supporting guidance is lacking. We assessed the incidence and factors associated with elevated liver enzymes in gout patients commenced on allopurinol. Methods 150 patients with gout and normal baseline serum aminotransferases initiated on allopurinol were followed ...

Multifunctional Neutrophil Nanovesicles Induce Remodeling of Tumor Immune Microenvironment and Synergistic Multimodal Tumor Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the engineered RN@FDT for multimodal tumor therapy. a) Fabrication of FD&DOX/TFA‐loaded RGD‐NNV (RN@FDT) and the light‐triggered disassemble of RN@FDT. b) After internalized by tumor cells, RN@FDT are disintegrated under NIR‐II laser irradiation to boost PTT and induce cell apoptosis.

Liver and erythrocyte L-aspartate: and L-alanine: 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferases of the pyridoxine deficient rat.

, 1968
The withdrawal of pyridoxine from the diet of male weading rats did not appear to affect the liver mitochondrial L-aspartate : 2-oxoglutarate amhotransferase, but the ismnzymes in the liver supematant and in the erythrocyte showed gradual lowering of ...

Effects of Potassium Iodide on Aspartate Aminotransferase [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1974
The absorption spectrum of the phosphopyridoxal form of the enzyme, aspartate aminotransferase, can be perturbed by the anion iodide over a wide range of pH values.The binding of this anion to the catalytic site of the enzyme brings about a decrease in the absorption at 360 nm and a concomitant increase in the absorption band centered at 430 nm ...

Myogenic Fusogen‐Engineered Lipid Nanoparticles Enhance mRNA Delivery in Skeletal Muscle

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports a biomimetic strategy of engineering full‐length Myomaker, a muscle‐specific fusogen, into lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) to harness the native myoblast fusion capability for skeletal muscle mRNA delivery. The resulting Mymk‐LNPs enhance transfection in differentiating myocytes and enable Cre‐mediated reporter activation in injured ...

Engineered Nanoplatforms Targeting Activated Hepatic Stellate Cells for Liver Fibrosis Therapy via TGF‐β Axis Inhibition and Ferroptosis Induction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
FeS‐VA@lanifibranor (FVL), an activated hepatic stellate cell (aHSC)‐targeted nanoplatform comprising vitamin A‐functionalized two‐dimensional iron sulfide nanosheets and lanifibranor, is engineered for precision therapy of liver fibrosis. FVL suppresses the TGF‐β signaling pathway by inhibiting SMAD2/3 phosphorylation and induces ferroptosis in aHSCs,

Age-related increase of kynurenic acid in human cerebrospinal fluid-IgG and beta(2)-microglobulin changes [PDF]

, 2005
Kynurenic acid (KYNA) is an endogenous metabolite in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan degradation and is an antagonist at the glycine site of the N-methyl-D-aspartate as well as at the alpha 7 nicotinic cholinergic receptors. In the brain tissue KYNA

A continuous 96-well plate spectrophotometric assay for branched-chain amino acid aminotransferases

, 2002
A new, continuous 96-well plate spectrophotometric assay for the branched-chain amino acid aminotransferases is described. Transamination of L-leucine with α-ketoglutarate results in formation of α-ketoisocaproate, which is reductively aminated back to L-

Water‐Activated Phospholipid Phase‐Separation Gel as an Immunomodulatory Anti‐Adhesion Barrier for Postoperative Adhesion Prevention

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A water‐activated phospholipid phase‐separation gel is repurposed as a drug‐free surgical barrier for postoperative adhesion prevention. Propylene glycol promotes rapid lamellar gel reinforcement, prolonged local retention, and tissue coverage, while phosphatidylcholine‐mediated immunomodulation suppresses inflammatory and fibrotic responses. This dual‐
