Pteridines, 1995 Unconjugated pteridines are present in fungi, algae and plants. However, the functions of pteridines in these organisms are not thoroughly investigated. The biosynthesis follows the same steps as were shown for animals and eubacteria.

Pteridines in the Control of Pigmentation
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1997 The influence of UVB irradiation on the metabolic pathway for the production of L-tyrosine from L-phenylalanine in the human epidermis has been examined in 12 healthy volunteers with photo skin types I-VI (Fitzpatrick classification). This metabolic pathway involves the induction of GTP-cyclohydrolase 1 (GTP-CH-1), the rate-limiting enzyme for de novo ...

Influence of Neopterin on Ciliary Beat Frequency of Human Nasal Epithelial Cells in vitro
Pteridines, 2008 Acute infectious diseases of the respiratory tract are regularly associated with increased concentrations of neopterin in serum and/or urine. Most likely, the pteridine compound is not only a marker of an activated cellular immune system but may exert ...

Dendritic Molecular Baskets for Selective Binding of Toxic Methotrexate
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 9, February 24, 2025.Dendritic molecular baskets are biocompatible cavitands capable of including toxic methotrexate (MTX) in their aromatic cavity. The binding is chemoselective with the complex forming in competitive cell media. With the unique mode of recognition and modular structure, dendritic baskets are leading candidates for developing effective antidotes against ...
