Multifunctional PAMAM Dendrimers Carrying SAHA, 5‐FU, and a Therapeutic Gene for Targeted Co‐Delivery Toward Colorectal Cancer Cells

open access: yesBiotechnology Journal, Volume 19, Issue 11, November 2024.
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary Colorectal cancer treatment (CRC) is challenged by multi‐drug resistance, where cancer cells become resistant to multiple drugs due to efflux pumps or enzymatic detoxification. This study proposes a multi‐pronged approach utilizing PAMAM dendrimers for targeted co‐delivery of genes and drugs to combat CRC.

Neopterin-induced Suppression of Erythropoietin Production In Vitro

open access: yesPteridines, 1995
The production of neopterin increases in several diseases with activation of the ceIlular immune response. As previously shown serum concentrations of neopterin are inversely correlated with blood hemoglobin concentrations in the anemia of hematological ...

Sexual color ornamentation, microhabitat choice, and thermal physiology in the common wall lizard (Podarcis muralis)

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 341, Issue 9, Page 1041-1052, November 2024.
Abstract Common wall lizards (Podarcis muralis) in Italy show a striking variation in body coloration across the landscape, with highly exaggerated black and green colors in hot and dry climates and brown and white colors in cool and wet climates. Males are more intensely colored than females, and previous work has suggested that the maintenance of ...

Urinary and Serum Pteridines in Liver Diseases

open access: yesPteridines, 1996
The aim of this mini-review is to show the usefulness of pteridines as clinical markers. We assayed urinary neopterin and xanthopterin levels in liver disease. Total pterins were oxidized by active carbon to yield xanthopterin.

Pteridines and the function of the photosynthetic reaction center.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1969
The photoreduction and interaction with the photosynthetic "reaction center" of 2-amino,4-hydroxy-6-substituted pteridine indicates that these low-potential ( approximately -0.7 v), naturally occurring compounds play a primary role in photosynthetic ...

Folate, neopterin and kynurenine pathway in patients with statin therapy

open access: yesPteridines, 2016
Statins, widely used antihyperlipidemic drugs, also have immunomodulatory properties independent from their lipid lowering effect. Even with slight modulations in the immune system, pteridine levels can display changes.

Characterization of Underivatized Pterins by Laser Desorption Fourier Transfonn Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesPteridines, 1993
Laser desorption FfMS provides a powerful method for examining the structures of underivatized pteridines. (M + Na)+ and (M + K)+ ions are generated by laser desorption and can be used to determine molecular weights. The negative ion spectra provide more

6-Acetonylisoxanthopterin: A Potent Inhibitor of Sepiapterin Reductase

open access: yesPteridines, 1991
The inhibitory effect of 6-/7-substituted (2'-oxo) pteridines and ichthyopterin was examined for sepiapterin reductase. 6-Acetonylisoxanthopterin and 6-acetonyl-2,4-diamino-7-hydroxypteridine showed pronounced competitive inhibitory effects to ...

An in vitro System for Studying Pteridine Biosynthesis In Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesPteridines, 1991
In vitro organ culture is a system especially useful for the study of metabolic pathways and their regulation. This report applies such a system to the study of the biosynthesis of pteridines in Drosophila melanogaster, determining in vitro optimal ...
