Metabolomics Identifies multiple candidate biomarkers to diagnose and stage human African trypanosomiasis [PDF]

, 2016
Treatment for human African trypanosomiasis is dependent on the species of trypanosome causing the disease and the stage of the disease (stage 1 defined by parasites being present in blood and lymphatics whilst for stage 2, parasites are found beyond the

Cytokine induction of neopterin production

Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 1991
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 ...

Mediators of leukocyte yctivation play a role in disseminated intravascular coagulation during orthotopic liver transplantation [PDF]

, 1994
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.

Functional Training Mitigates Reduced Circulating Indole‐3‐Lactate Levels in Persons With Relapsing–Remitting Multiple Sclerosis

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Indoles are tryptophan (Trp)‐derived metabolites that are produced by the gut microbiota and may influence the gut‐microbiota‐brain axis in multiple sclerosis (MS). Indole‐3‐lactate (ILA) is reduced in persons with MS and improves MS clinical scores in animal models via its anti‐inflammatory remyelinating properties.

The relationship between neopterin and hepatitis B surface antigen positivity

Pteridines, 2018
Hepatitis B is a life-threatening viral liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus. Neopterin is regarded as an immunologic biomarker of several diseases related to activation of the cellular immune system.

Urinary Neopterin Concentrations in Healthy Individuals with Household Contact

Pteridines, 2003
Increased neopterin concentrations in serum and urine indicate activation of cell-mediated immunity. In this study, urinary neopterin concentrations of a family consisting of 1 child (aged 5 years), her parents, and her grandparents were determined over ...

Neopterin production and tryptophan degradation during 24-months therapy with interferon beta-1a in multiple sclerosis patients [PDF]

, 2011
none16noBackground: Increased synthesis of neopterin and degradation of tryptophan to kynurenine, measured as kynurenine/tryptophan ratio (kyn/trp ratio), are considered in vitro markers of interferon beta-1a (IFN beta-1a) activity.

ATAD3 duplications bridge mitochondrial diseases and Aicardi–Goutières syndrome

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 287-294, February 2026.
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 ...
