Mycoplasmas and cancer [PDF]

, 2014
The standard of care for patients suffering cancer often includes treatment with nucleoside analogues (NAs). NAs are internalized by cell-specific nucleobase/nucleoside transporters and, after enzymatic activation (often one or more phosphorylation steps)

Metabolic growth differences between Gymnocypris przewalskii and Gymnocypris eckloni: A quantitative proteomic perspective

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Metabolism plays a crucial role in the growth rate of species. Proteomics serves as a potent tool to explore these metabolic changes. Herein, we investigated the metabolic growth differences in Gymnocypris przewalskii (GP) and Gymnocypris ecklon (GE). After 9 months of culture, the growth rate of GP was slower than that of GE (p < 0.05), while

Circulating Human Neonatal Naïve B cells are Deficient in CD73 Impairing Purine Salvage

Frontiers in Immunology, 2016
Background: Extracellular purines, in particular adenosine (Ado) and adenosine-triphosphate (ATP), are critical immunoregulatory molecules. Expression and activity of purine ecto-enzymes on B cells in neonatal and adult blood may influence their function

Metabolites of purine nucleoside phosphorylase (NP) in serum have the potential to delineate pancreatic adenocarcinoma. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma (PDAC), the fourth highest cause of cancer related deaths in the United States, has the most aggressive presentation resulting in a very short median survival time for the affected patients. Early detection of PDAC is confounded

5'-nucleotidases, nucleosides and their distribution in the brain: pathological and therapeutic implications [PDF]

, 2013
Elements of the nucleoside system (nucleoside levels, 5'-nucleotidases (5'NTs) and other nucleoside metabolic enzymes, nucleoside transporters and nucleoside receptors) are unevenly distributed in the brain, suggesting that nucleosides have region ...

The antiepileptic potential of nucleosides [PDF]

, 2014
Despite newly developed antiepileptic drugs to suppress epileptic symptoms, approximately one third of patients remain drug refractory. Consequently, there is an urgent need to develop more effective therapeutic approaches to treat epilepsy. A great deal

Partial Purine Nucleoside Phosphorylase Deficiency [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1978
Immune function in two brothers with a deficiency of purine nucleoside phosphorylase was evaluated in vivo and in vitro. Both patients had a history of recurrent infections and profound lymphopenia. Studies of cell-mediated immunity revealed an absence of delayed cutaneous reactivity to a number of antigens, including dinitrochlorobenzene, and ...

Human adenovirus serotype 5 infection dysregulates cysteine, purine, and unsaturated fatty acid metabolism in fibroblasts

The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 5, 15 March 2025.
Human adenovirus serotype 5 was used to infect HEK293 fibroblasts at low MOI (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0). Infected cells were interrogated by gas chromatography time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (GC‐TOF‐MS) at 6, 12, 24, and 36 h post‐infection. The total metabolites were evaluated using an untargeted analysis of primary carbons. The results indicate a decrease

Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) deficiency: across-the-board severe combined immunodeficiency

Egyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics
Background Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) deficiency is a rare, autosomal recessive, inborn error of immunity. It is characterized by progressive immune abnormalities ranging from severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) to combined ...

Computational quantum chemistry, molecular docking, and ADMET predictions of imidazole alkaloids of Pilocarpus microphyllus with schistosomicidal properties.

PLoS ONE, 2018
Schistosomiasis affects million people and its control is widely dependent on a single drug, praziquantel. Computational chemistry has led to the development of new tools that predict molecular properties related to pharmacological potential.
