Neopterin and 7,8-dihydroneopterin are generated within atherosclerotic plaques
Plasma neopterin correlates with the level of cardiovascular disease. Neopterin is the oxidation product of 7,8-dihydroneopterin, which is released by γ-interferon-stimulated macrophages. 7,8-Dihydroneopterin is a potent antioxidant, which inhibits lipid

Gut function among children treated for severe acute malnutrition: A cohort study in Uganda
Abstract Objectives Impaired gut function in children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) is associated with morbidity. We aimed to assess changes in six biomarkers representing different domains of gut function among children with complicated SAM during nutritional rehabilitation, and to identify predictors of these changes.

Helicobacter pylori infection and neopterin
In order to find out whether chronic immune stimulation is associated with Helicobacter pylori infection we studied 425 healthy individuals (aged 57.6 ± 9.22 years, s.d.) who were performing a health check up without having any specific health problems ...

Abstract Background Childhood‐onset hyperkinetic movement disorders occur in a range of genetic conditions. Recently, there has been an increase in recognition of hyperkinetic movement disorders, mainly dystonia, chorea and dyskinesia, with monogenic conditions associated with neurodevelopmental delay (NDD) and also with developmental and epileptic ...

Association Between Neopterin Production and other Parameters in a Population of Blood Donors
Neopterin is released from human monocyte-derived macrophages preferentially upon stimulation with the Thlcell cytokine interferon-γ. In humans, increased concentrations of neopterin in serum and urine have been found in viral infections including human ...

Inborn errors of immunity in children with neuroinflammation
Abstract Inborn errors of immunity (IEIs), an expanding group of monogenic disorders with diverse clinical manifestations, are increasingly recognized to include neuroinflammatory disease. Examples of diseases included under this umbrella are Aicardi–Goutières syndrome, deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2, familial haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis ...

Effect of Neopterin on the Hematopoietic System
Neopterin is produced by monocytes and is a useful biomarker for inflammation. We recently found that neopterin is biologically active against hematopoiesis during inflammatory processes.
