Determination of Urinary Neopterin/Creatinine Ratio to Distinguish Active Tuberculosis from Latent Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Biomarkers to distinguish latent from active Mycobacterium (M.) tuberculosis infection in clinical practice are lacking. The urinary neopterin/creatinine ratio can quantify the systemic interferon-gamma effect in patients with M. tuberculosis

Cytokine induction of neopterin production
SUMMARYThe pteridine neopterin is a marker of immunological activation and has been shown to be a useful marker of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in bone marrow transplant patients. High levels of both neopterin and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) were produced in vitro during mixed lymphocyte responses, which may be considered to be a model of the primary ...

Consensus Guideline for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Tyrosine Hydroxylase (TH) Deficiency
ABSTRACT Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) catalyses the rate‐limiting step in dopamine biosynthesis. Autosomal recessive tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency (THD) leads to clinical phenotypes reflecting the deficiency of dopamine, norepinephrine, or epinephrine in the central nervous system (CNS), presenting along a continuous spectrum from mild to severe forms ...

ABSTRACT Human T‐lymphotropic virus 1 (HTLV‐1)‐associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting motor and sensory functions. While alterations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) have been used to identify disease biomarkers, the effects of such modified CSF on CNS cells remain unexplored.

Improvement of neuropsychological performances and reduction of immune-activation markers after probiotic supplementation and change of life-style in an HIV positive male: targeting the microbiota to act on gut-brain axis [PDF]
The gut-brain axis is widely in uenced by the intestinal microbiota and dysbiosis is consequently associated with a large dysregulation of its functions. Probiotic supplementation, reducing the harmful effects of dysbiosis, has shown positive effects not
