Biochemistry and biosynthesis of insect pigments
The functional role and commercial importance of insect pigments have been studied for well over a century. They are classified into those synthesized by insects, which include anthraquinones, aphins, pterins, tetrapyrroles, ommochromes, melanins and ...

Tetrahydrobiopterin (Bh4) deficiencies: diagnosis and treatment
Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an enzyme cofactor of phenylalanine hydroxylase, tyrosine hydroxylase and tryptophan hydroxylase. Three different enzymes affect BH4 synthesis: guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase I (GTP CH 1), 6-piruvoil tetrahydropterin ...

Ultraviolet-induced fluorescent imaging for millipede taxonomy [PDF]
Fluorescent imaging has been traditionally applied to cell biology, and more recently to entomology to capture microscopic images of insect anatomy. However, the technique has not been applied to the study of millipedes, most of which autofluoresce as a ...

The postbiotics, which possess both antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, are derived from Lactiplantibacillus plantarum strains, revealing the presence of bioactive compounds. Functional assays showed strong antioxidant activity and strain‐specific antimicrobial effects. When applied to pork, these postbiotics significantly reduced microbial loads,

ABSTRACT Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as one of the most critical global health challenges, undermining the clinical efficacy of existing antibiotics and threatening modern therapeutic strategies. The ongoing misuse and overuse of antimicrobial agents have accelerated the evolution of resistant bacterial strains and parasites ...

Investigation of Spectra and Ionization Constants of 8-Alkyl Pterins by Fluorimetry
Spectrofluorimetric studies of the properties of 8-alkyl-pterins arc reported, together with preliminary results on the use of fluorimetry in studying the binding of these new mechanism-based substrates to dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR).

Pterins as Sensors of Response to the Application of Fe3+-Dextran in Piglets
The aim of the presented study was to assess the effect of a single administration of Fe3+-dextran on immune cell counts and pterin biomolecule production as novel sensors of the piglets' immune system activation, and to determine concentrations of ...
