Functional Studies on the Promoter Region of the Human GTP Cyclohydrolase I Gene

open access: yesPteridines, 1995
We have isolated genomic clones that contained the gene for human GTP cyclohydrolase I. One clone containing the 5'-regulatory region of this gene was further analysed.

Oxidative and Antioxidant Systems in Ferroptosis of Cancer: Mechanisms, Regulations, and Therapeutic Targeting

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
Ferroptosis is governed by the balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐driven lipid peroxidation and a multi‐tiered antioxidant network. ROS sources include mitochondrial electron transport chain, voltage‐dependent anion channels, NADPH oxidases, and endoplasmic reticulum‐resident oxidoreductases, while antioxidant defenses span the primary GSH ...

Stimulation of Tetrahydrobiopterin Synthesis by Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor in Vascular Endothelial Cells

open access: yesPteridines, 2003
The purpose of this study was to examine whether basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) stimulates tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) synthesis in mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells.

Relationship Between Central Sensitization and Genetic Polymorphisms—A Case–Control Study in Fibromyalgia

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pain, Volume 30, Issue 6, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Fibromyalgia is a syndrome characterised by widespread chronic pain, which is believed to be mediated by a state of central sensitisation (CS). Based on the hypothesis that CS itself could have genetic determinants, our aim was to further explore this pathway.

Regulation of GTP cyclohydrolase I gene transcription by basic region leucine zipper transcription factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Tetrahydrobiopterin is an essential cofactor for the phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan hydroxylases, and the family of nitric oxide synthases. The initial and rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin is GTP cyclohydrolase 1 ...

Influences of Catecholamine Contents on Tetrahydrobiopterin Metabolism

open access: yesPteridines, 1998
The influence of changes in catecholamine metabolism on tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis was investigated in cultured rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells. The increase in the cellular dopamine content after treatment with the MAO-COMT inhibitor or dopamine ...

6-Acetyldihydrohomopterin and sepiapterin affect some GTP cyclohydrolase I's and not others [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The first enzyme in pteridine biosynthesis, GTP cyclohydrolase I, is a likely site for regulation of pteridine biosynthesis to occur. GTP cyclohydrolase I responds to hormonal treatment and is found altered in a variety of mice with genetically based ...

Effect sizes in experimental pain produced by gender, genetic variants and sensitization procedures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Various effects on pain have been reported with respect to their statistical significance, but a standardized measure of effect size has been rarely added.

Troglitazone Stimulates the Insulin-induced Tetrahydrobiopterin Synthesis In Vascular Endothelial Cells

open access: yesPteridines, 2000
We investigated the effects of troglitazone, which is a ligand of nuclear transcription factor peroxisome proliferator- activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ), on insulin-induced tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) synthesis in mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells ...
