Neopterin measurement in clinical diagnosis [PDF]
Neopterin is a marker associated with cell-mediated immunity. It is produced in monocytes/macrophages primarily upon stimulation with interferon-gamma. Due to its chemical structure, neopterin belongs to the class of pteridines. It is excreted in an unchanged form via the kidneys. Serum levels above 10 nmol/L are regarded as elevated.

Serum Neopterin and Procalcitonin Levels in Relationship with Pediatric Burn Wound Infections [PDF]
Infection and septic complications in burn patients can be monitored by procalcitonin (PCT) and neopterin plasma values. The aim of the study was to investigate serum neopterin and PCT levels with WBC (white blood cell) and CRP (C-reactive protein ...

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

ATAD3 duplications bridge mitochondrial diseases and Aicardi–Goutières syndrome
ATAD3 locus duplications cause a severe neonatal mitochondrial disorder with neuroimaging features resembling interferonopathies, and suggest a mitochondrial nucleic acid‐triggered interferon response. Plain language summary: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/dmcn.16446 Abstract A recurrent 68‐kb heterozygous duplication of the ATAD3 locus ...

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.

Mediators of leukocyte yctivation play a role in disseminated intravascular coagulation during orthotopic liver transplantation [PDF]
Leukocytes play an important role in the development of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). In the reperfusion phase of OLT a DIC-like situation has been described and has been held responsible for the high blood loss during this phase.

Predictive Role of Hematological Biomarkers in Chronic Kidney Disease Progression
This retrospective study assessed the predictive value of hematological biomarkers in the progression and complications of chronic kidney disease (CKD) among 120 adult patients. Key findings revealed that declining hemoglobin and increasing red cell distribution width (RDW) and neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) were significantly associated with ...
