Abstract Background Although not confirmed, some studies have suggested that elevated homocysteine levels are common in patients with Huntington's disease (HD). Its clinical relevance remains unclear. Objectives We aimed to assess vitamin B and homocysteine levels in HD patients and explore the relationships among hyperhomocysteinemia, vitamin B ...

Discovery of a Bioactive Inhibitor with a New Scaffold for Cystathionine γ‑Lyase
We identify three submicromolar inhibitors with new chemical scaffolds for cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) by a tandem-well-based high-throughput assay. NSC4056, the most potent inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.6 μM, which is also known as aurintricarboxylic acid,
