Tetrahydro-6-biopterin is associated with tetrahydro-7-biopterin in primary murine mast cells [PDF]
Murine bone marrow‐derived mast cells proliferate in response to interleukin 3. In addition to 6‐biopterin, 7‐biopterin was identified in these cells by HPLC analysis of iodine oxidized extracts and by alkaline permanganate oxidation to the 6‐ and 7‐carboxylic acids. 7‐Biopterin comprised 31.9 (± 7.7)% of the total biopterin.

Evaluation of neopterin levels and kynurenine pathway in patients with acute coronary syndrome [PDF]
Background Coronary atherosclerosis is the leading cause of coronary artery disease. Several investigations have indicated that tear-sensitive plaques contain macrophages and T cells. Neopterin is an essential cellular immune response biomarker. The main
