Porphyromonas gulae and PPAD antibodies are not related to citrullination in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Clinical Oral Investigations, 2023 Abstract Introduction Porphyromonas gulae have the enzyme PPAD, as P. gingivalis, which is responsible for citrullination related to the pathophysiology of rheumatoid arthritis and periodontitis; this implies the presence of two species of PPAD-producing bacteria in the mouth as well as the presence of citrullinated ...

PPAD -completeness of polyhedral versions of Sperner’s Lemma
Discrete Mathematics, 2013 Abstract We show that certain polyhedral versions of Sperner’s Lemma, where the colouring is given explicitly as part of the input, are PPAD -complete. The proofs are based on two recent results on the complexity of computational problems in game theory: the PPAD -completeness of 2-player Nash, proved by Chen and Deng, and of Scarf’s Lemma, proved ...

Selective antagonism by PPADS at P2X‐purinoceptors in rabbit isolated blood vessels [PDF]
British Journal of Pharmacology, 1994 1. Pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulphonic acid (PPADS), a P2-purinoceptor antagonist, was investigated for its ability to antagonize: (1) P2X-purinoceptor-mediated contractions of the rabbit central ear artery and saphenous artery evoked by either alpha,beta-methylene ATP (alpha,beta-MeATP) or electrical field stimulation (EFS); (2) P2Y ...

Expression of purinergic receptors on microglia in the animal model of choroidal neovascularisation
Scientific Reports, 2021 To investigate the effect of P2 receptor on microglia and its inhibitor PPADS on choroidal neovascularization. Forty CX3CR1GFP/+ mice were randomly divided into 8 groups. In addition to the normal group, the rest of groups were receiving laser treatment.

Purinergic receptor functionality is necessary for infection of human hepatocytes by hepatitis delta virus and hepatitis B virus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis delta virus (HDV) are major sources of acute and chronic hepatitis. HDV requires the envelope proteins of HBV for the processes of assembly and infection of new cells.

Agonist antagonist interactions at the rapidly desensitizing P2X3 receptor. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 P2X3 receptors (P2XRs), as members of the purine receptor family, are deeply involved in chronic pain sensation and therefore, specific, competitive antagonists are of great interest for perspective pain management.
