Associations between purine metabolites and clinical symptoms in schizophrenia [PDF]
, 2012 Background: The antioxidant defense system, which is known to be dysregulated in schizophrenia, is closely linked to the dynamics of purine pathway. Thus, alterations in the homeostatic balance in the purine pathway may be involved in the pathophysiology

A study of the effects of exercise on the urinary metabolome using normalisation to individual metabolic output [PDF]
, 2015 Aerobic exercise, in spite of its multi-organ benefit and potent effect on the metabolome, has yet to be investigated comprehensively via an untargeted metabolomics technology.

One-carbon metabolism in cancer [PDF]
, 2017 Cells require one-carbon units for nucleotide synthesis, methylation and reductive metabolism, and these pathways support the high proliferative rate of cancer cells.

Biosensor measurement of purine release from cerebellar cultures and slices [PDF]
, 2010 We have previously described an action-potential and Ca2+-dependent form of adenosine release in the molecular layer of cerebellar slices. The most likely source of the adenosine is the parallel fibres, the axons of granule cells. Using microelectrode

Characterisation of multiple substrate-specific (d)ITP/(d)XTPase and modelling of deaminated purine nucleotide metabolism [PDF]
, 2011 To be viable, organisms possess a number of (deoxy)nucleotide phosphohydrolases, which hydrolyze these nucleotides removing them from the active NTP and dNTP pools. Deamination of purine bases can result in accumulation of such nucleotides as ITP, dITP,

Metabolomic profiling of macrophages determines the discrete metabolomic signature and metabolomic interactome triggered by polarising immune stimuli [PDF]
, 2018 Priming and activating immune stimuli have profound effects on macrophages, however, studies generally evaluate stimuli in isolation rather than in combination.

Can adenine nucleotides predict primary nonfunction of the human liver homograft? [PDF]
, 1994 Sixty-eight primary liver grafts were analyzed to see whether adenine nucleotides (AN: ATP, ADP, and AMP) or purine catabolites (PC: adenosine, inosine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine) of tissue or effluent can predict primary graft nonfunction.

Upregulation of inducible NO synthase by exogenous adenosine in vascular smooth muscle cells activated by inflammatory stimuli in experimental diabetes [PDF]
, 2016 BACKGROUND: Adenosine has been shown to induce nitric oxide (NO) production via inducible NO synthase (iNOS) activation in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Although this is interpreted as a beneficial vasodilating pathway in vaso-occlusive disorders,

Glutaredoxin GRXS17 associates with the cytosolic iron-sulfur cluster assembly pathway [PDF]
, 2016 Cytosolic monothiol glutaredoxins (GRXs) are required in iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster delivery and iron sensing in yeast and mammals. In plants, it is unclear whether they have similar functions.

Computer simulation of purine metabolism [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1984 A computer model of purine metabolism, including catabolism, salvage pathways and interconversion among nucleotides, is given. Steady‐state rate equations corresponding to metabolic enzymes are written based on information from the literature about their kinetic behaviour.
