Incorporation of fatty acids into phospholipids has been investigated using samples of rat liver tissue homogenate (Krebs-Ringer-phosphate buffer, pH=7.4, containing 0.3% albumin, fatty acid mixture and glycerol). The addition of 7,8-dihydroneopterin and

The effect of an oral load of phenylalanine (100 mg/kg body weight) on the levels of neopterin and biopterin in urine has been determined in 8 heterozygotes for classical phenylketonuria and 25 supposed normal controls. In basal conditions, neopterin and

A pteridine glycoside in Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942, the structure of which had been tentatively identified as biopterin-glucoside, was isolated and characterized for its exact chemical structure by 2D-NMR spectroscopy. The determined structure is 1-0-(L-

Neopterin and Cytokines in Hereditary Dystonia and Parkinson's Disease
Both neopterin and biopterin concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid from patients with Parkinson's disease, in which the nigrostriatal dopamine neurons degenerate, were lower than those from age-matched older control subjects.

Biosynthetic Enzymes of Tetrahydrolimipterin from Green Sulfur Bacterium Chlorobium Limicola
Based on the structure of limipterin (Cha, Pfleiderer, and Yim, Helv, Chim. Acta, 78: 600-614. 1995 the biosynthetic pathway for the newly identified pterin glycoside was investigated. It was demonstrated that tetrahydrolimipterin (H4 -limipterin) can be

Biopterin in Parkinson's disease. [PDF]
Tetrahydrobiopterin is an essential co-factor in the natural synthesis of dopamine. Oral tetrahydrobiopterin was given in small doses to four patients with early Parkinson's disease but had no discernible effect.

Developmental and Phenotypic Outcomes in Mild Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency
ABSTRACT Benign hyperphenylalaninemia (bHPA) is defined as elevated phenylalanine (Phe) levels remaining ≤ 360 μmol/L (6 mg/dL) and not requiring medical intervention. Individuals with bHPA may demonstrate a rise in their Phe levels > 360 μmol/L, effectively developing a mild PKU phenotype requiring therapy to prevent neurocognitive complications. This

Pteridines and Lipid Metabolism
The effect of 9 different pteridines on fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids as well as on cholesterol and phospholipid content was compared in vitro using rat liver homogenate, Krebs-Ringer phosphate buffer containing 0.3 % albumin (pH=7.4 ...
