The Role of Neopterin and Interleukin-6 Detection in Saliva and Plasma in Oral and Oropharyngeal Cancer Patients: A Prospective Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives The incidence of oral and oropharyngeal cancer is continually rising and affects increasingly younger patients. Consequently, many studies focus on early diagnosis using appropriate biomarkers. Neopterin and interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) are promising predictive and prognostic markers of immune response activation, both systemic and local ...

Inflammation has a major role in the pathogenesis of heart failure (HF). It triggers a cascade that leads to the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines which in turn cause cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, apoptosis, negative inotorpy and leukocyte ...

Neopterin, a product of activated white blood cells, is a marker of nonspecific inflammation that can capture variation in immune investment or disease-related immune activity and can be collected noninvasively in urine.

Concentrations of urinary neopterin, but not suPAR, positively correlate with age in rhesus macaques
Identifying biomarkers of age-related changes in immune system functioning that can be measured non-invasively is a significant step in progressing research on immunosenescence and inflammaging in free-ranging and wild animal populations.

Elevated Neopterin Levels Predict Fatal Outcome in SARS-CoV-2-Infected Patients
Highlights Innate immune activation during Covid-19 infection is associated with pernicious clinical outcome. Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is a worldwide threat that has already caused more than 3 000 000 deaths.

Neopterin, procalcitonin, clinical biochemistry, and hematology in calves with neonatal sepsis
This study aims to determine how neopterin, procalcitonin, biochemical and hematological parameters change during treatment of calves with neonatal sepsis. A total of 25 calves divided into two groups.

Urinary neopterin: A novel biomarker of disease progression in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
The aim was to evaluate urinary neopterin, a marker of pro‐inflammatory state, as a potential biomarker of disease prognosis and progression in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS); and to compare its utility to urinary neurotrophin receptor p75 ...

Clues to Disease Activity in Juvenile Dermatomyositis: Neopterin and Other Biomarkers
Easily accessible biomarkers are urgently needed to evaluate immune activation in Juvenile Dermatomyositis (JDM). The goal of this retrospective study is to define immunological and clinical differences between untreated JDM patients with either normal ...

The study of free-living animal populations is necessary to understand life history trade-offs associated with immune investment. To investigate the role of life history strategies in shaping proinflammatory cell-mediated immune function, we analyzed age,
