Quantitation of total biopterin and tetrahydrobiopterin in plasma
Clinical Biochemistry, 2007To develop a reliable method for the determination of tetrahydrobiopterin and total biopterin in plasma.Modifications include blood collection and handling procedures.Collection of blood in the presence of 0.1% (w/v) dithiothreitol and waiting for 2-3 h before centrifugation are optimal for adequate quantitation of both pterins.For a reliable ...

Intraperitoneally injected [(14)C]biopterin (B), dihydrobiopterin (BH2), and tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) penetrated the brain rapidly, but in amounts sufficient to represent only a minor source of supply. Unlike isobiopterin, B was rapidly reduced to BH2 in brain.

AbstractThe synthesis of (‐)‐biopterin (1) was accomplished by employing (1S,2S)‐1‐(2‐furyl)‐2‐(trityloxy)‐1‐propanol (6), derived from ethyl (S)‐lactate, as building block for the side chain.

Pteridine diuretics as biopterin antagonists
Biochemical Pharmacology, 1974Abstract A series of pteridines having varying degrees of diuretic activity were tested for their effects on the growth of the pteridine-requiring flagellate, Crithidia fasciculata . Inhibition of growth was correlated with diuretic activity insofar as compounds devoid of diuretic effects were uninhibitory and active inhibitors were also good to ...

Biopterin and neopterin in human saliva
Life Sciences, 1989Presence of biopterin and neopterin in human saliva was investigated by HPLC after iodine oxidation in acidic medium. Concentrations of biopterin and neopterin (M +/- SEM) were 1.271 +/- 0.254 and 0.358 +/- 0.075 ng per ml, respectively, in saliva of apparently healthy young male adults, ages 20 to 22 years (n = 9).

Psychiatric Manifestations in Patients with Biopterin Defects
Neuropediatrics, 2022AbstractPsychiatric manifestations in patients with tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) defects are common, and may occur even with treatment of the underlying disorder. The neurobiological background of these conditions has been linked to abnormalities of neurotransmitters, such as dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine, and gamma-aminobutyric acid.

Repeated intraventricular injections of 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxypyrimidine (DAO-Pyr), inhibitor of D-erythro-q-dihydroneopterin triphosphate synthetase, inhibited q-BH2 synthesis from GTP, markedly increased accumulation of 2-amino-4-hydroxy-5 (or -6)-formamido-6-triphosphoribosylaminopyrimidine (FPyd-P3) and brought about a 60% decrease in the in vivo of

Screening for Biopterin Disorders in PKU
Pediatrics, 1980It is now recognized (Pediatrics 65:806, 1980) that a small proportion of cases of phenylketonuria (PKU) may be due to abnormalities in the metabolism of biopterin. These cases do not respond to the restriction of dietary phenylalanine, but may be benefited by neurotransmitter replacement therapy. A specific diagnosis is therefore desirable.
