Neopterin and biopterin as biomarkers of immune system activity associated with crating in broiler chickens.

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2014
Neopterin and biopterin belong to a group of unconjugated pterin derivates. These biomolecules are present in many animal species and perform several functions.

Biopterin Status in Dogs with Myxomatous Mitral Valve Disease is Associated with Disease Severity and Cardiovascular Risk Factors

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2014
Background Endothelial dysfunction (ED) has been suggested to be associated with myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) in dogs. Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an important cofactor for production of the endothelium‐derived vasodilator nitric oxide (NO ...

The Levels of Neopterin, Biopterin and the Neopterin/Biopterin Ratio in Urine from Control Subjects and Patients with Alzheimer's Disease and Down's Syndrome

open access: yesPteridines, 1995
The levels of neopterin, biopterin and the neopterin/biopterin ratio (NIB) were measured in urine samples taken from normal young and elderly control subjects, exceptionally healthy elderly control subjects classified according to the 'Senieur' protocol ...

The urinary biopterin in autism spectrum disorder

open access: yesPteridines, 2021
The aim of the study was to determine whether biopterin is present in significantly lower quantities in urine samples of patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) compared to healthy individuals.

Biopterin Metabolism and eNOS Expression during Hypoxic Pulmonary Hypertension in Mice

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), which fosters the formation of and stabilizes endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) as an active dimer, tightly regulates eNOS coupling / uncoupling.

Neopterin and Cytokines in Hereditary Dystonia and Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesPteridines, 1999
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.

Biopterin in Parkinson's disease. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1987
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.

Biosynthetic Enzymes of Tetrahydrolimipterin from Green Sulfur Bacterium Chlorobium Limicola

open access: yesPteridines, 1998
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

Immunological impact of tetrahydrobiopterin on the central nervous system in a murine model of rabies virus infection

open access: yesRevista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2021
Currently, the Milwaukee protocol presents healing results in human beings affected by the rabies virus. However, there are many points to clarify on the action of drugs and the immune mechanism involved in the evolution of the disease.

Solar radiation exposure of dihydrobiopterin and biopterin in aqueous solution

open access: yes, 2014
Dihydrobiopterin (H2Bip) and biopterin (Bip) accumulate in the skin of patients suffering from vitiligo, whose lack of melanin causes a deficient protection against UV radiation.
