Characterization of the Protective Effect of Tetrahydrobiopterin Against S-Nitroso-N -Acetyl-D ,L-Penicillamine Induced Endothelial Cell Injury

open access: yesPteridines, 1999
The purpose of this study was to characterize the protective effect of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), one of the cofactors of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, against NO-induced endothelial cell injury. The addition of S-nitroso-N-acetyl-D,L-penicillamine (SNAP),

Endogenous tetrahydrobiopterin in humans: circadian rhythm, sex, race, age, and disease status

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
Introduction6R-L-erythro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an essential cofactor for multiple enzymes, including phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH). Exogenous BH4, or its natural precursor sepiapterin, is utilized to treat patients with phenylketonuria ...

Intestinal Uptake of 6(R)-L-erythro-Tetrahydrobiopterin is Distinct from the Liver-Type MTX-Sensitive Accumulation Process

open access: yesPteridines, 2005
In order to increase the tissue level of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4 ) , supplementation with 6R-tetrahydrobiopterin (6RBH4) has been widely employed. In this work, the profile of BH4 accumulation was compared between the liver and the small intestine after

Tetrahydrobiopterin Protects against Radiation-induced Growth Inhibition in H9c2 Cardiomyocytes

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2016
Background: Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an essential cofactor of nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) for the synthesis of nitric oxide (NO). BH4 therapy can reverse the disease-related redox disequilibrium observed with BH4 deficiency.

Reversible Calcium Alloying on Bulk and Indium (Sub)‐Micro Negative Electrodes for Calcium‐Based Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Description: Indium metal serves as a reversible calcium‐alloying negative electrode. By transitioning from planar electrodes to powders and (sub‐)micron indium particles, the specific surface area is increased, improving the areal capacity density and cycling stability for calcium‐based batteries.

Insulin Stimulates Tetrahydrobiopterin Synthesis in Mouse Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells

open access: yesPteridines, 1999
We examined the effects of insulin on tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) synthesis in mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells (MBMECs). Treatment of MBMECs with insulin increased the intracellular BH4 content in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The

Tetrahydrobiopterin Uptake in Supplemental Administration: Elevation of Tissue Tetrahydrobiopterin in Mice Following Uptake of the Exogenously Oxidized Product 7,8-Dihydrobiopterin and Subsequent Reduction by an Anti-folate-Sensitive Process

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
In order to increase the tissue level of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), supplementation with 6R-tetrahydrobiopterin (6RBH4) has been widely employed. In this work, the effectiveness of 6RBH4 was compared with 7,8-dihydrobiopterin (7,8BH2) and sepiapterin by ...

A fat-derived metabolite regulates a peptidergic feeding circuit in Drosophila. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2017
Here, we show that the enzymatic cofactor tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) inhibits feeding in Drosophila. BH4 biosynthesis requires the sequential action of the conserved enzymes Punch, Purple, and Sepiapterin Reductase (Sptr).
