When Pathways Converge: Iron, Lipid Peroxidation, and α‐Synuclein in Ferroptosis‐Driven Dopaminergic Neurodegeneration

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 4, April 2026.
Dopaminergic neurons are particularly susceptible to ferroptosis. Pacemaking activity–driven calcium (Ca2+) influx increases metabolic demand and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, promoting iron release from aconitase. Alpha‐synuclein (α‐syn) enhances iron uptake via transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) and exhibits ferrireductase activity, converting

The biosynthesis of riboflavin and related pteridines [PDF]

open access: yes, 1961
The evidence in the literature relating to the biosynthesis of riboflavin and of other simpler pteridines is reviewed. Possible intermediates in the transformation of purines into pteridines are discussed and the chemistry of some of these compounds has ...

Synthesis of Peptides, Peptide Nucleic Acid Components, and Other Biogenic Compounds From a Three‐Component Prebiotic Mixture

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 9, 2 March 2026.
High‐energy proton irradiation of a formamide–diaminomaleonitrile–glycine system in the presence of meteorites produces a broad spectrum of biogenic compounds, including nucleobases, nucleosides, peptides, and nucleobase–peptide conjugates, highlighting a chemically plausible prebiotic network.

Syntheses of highly functionalised 6-substituted pteridines

open access: yes, 2003
Methods for the synthesis of polyfunctional 6-substituted pteridines from the corresponding 6-aldehydes are described. Alkene, ester, ketone, amide, cyano, oxime, bromo, methoxy and dihydroxy functional groups have all been introduced principally through

A Modified Microbiological Method for Determination of Folate Levels in Erythrocyte and Plasma

open access: yesPteridines, 2007
Pteridines are natural heterocyclic compounds and they are generally divided into two main groups which are denominated as conjugated and unconjugated pteridines.

Age‐Dependent Variation in Blood Biopterin Peaks Following Oral Tetrahydrobiopterin Administration in Phenylketonuria

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The correct diagnosis of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4, sapropterin dihydrochloride)‐responsive phenylketonuria (PKU) and treatment with BH4 are important for prognosis and quality of life. We examined whether age affects biopterin bioavailability following oral BH4 administration in PKU and whether this influences BH4 responsiveness.
