Clinical Validation of Plasma p-217tau in Neurological Diseases. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma p‐217tau is a minimally invasive but specific biomarker for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, its disease specificity remains to be clinically evaluated. We validated the reliability of the p‐217tau biomarker in 12 other neurological diseases.

A novel Romani microdeletion variant in the promoter sequence of ASS1 causes citrullinemia type I
Background: Citrullinemia type I (CTLN1, MIM #215700) is an autosomal recessive urea cycle disorder caused by deficiency of argininosuccinate synthase (ASS).

Epithelial argininosuccinate synthetase is dispensable for intestinal regeneration and tumorigenesis
The epithelial signaling pathways involved in damage and regeneration, and neoplastic transformation are known to be similar. We noted upregulation of argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS1) in hyperproliferative intestinal epithelium. Since ASS1 leads to de

Background Arginine (Arg) is a semiessential amino acid whose bioavailability is required for the in vitro replication of several oncolytic viruses. In vivo, Arg bioavailability is regulated by a combination of dietary intake, protein catabolism, and ...

Inositol possesses antifibrotic activity and mitigates pulmonary fibrosis
Background Myo-inositol (or inositol) and its derivatives not only function as important metabolites for multiple cellular processes but also act as co-factors and second messengers in signaling pathways. Although inositol supplementation has been widely

A role for macrophages under cytokine control in mediating resistance to ADI-PEG20 (pegargiminase) in ASS1-deficient mesothelioma [PDF]
Background Pegylated arginine deiminase (ADI-PEG20; pegargiminase) depletes arginine and improves survival outcomes for patients with argininosuccinate synthetase 1 (ASS1)-deficient malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM).

Synergistic effects of L-arginine and argininosuccinate synthetase 1 in inducing apoptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]
Backgrounds/Aims Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignant cancer with an increasing incidence worldwide. Although numerous efforts have been made to identify effective therapies for HCC, current strategies have limitations. We present a new approach

Acid-Induced Downregulation of ASS1 Contributes to the Maintenance of Intracellular pH in Cancer [PDF]
Abstract Downregulation of the urea cycle enzyme argininosuccinate synthase (ASS1) by either promoter methylation or by HIF1α is associated with increased metastasis and poor prognosis in multiple cancers.
