FAMIN Is a Multifunctional Purine Enzyme Enabling the Purine Nucleotide Cycle [PDF]
Mutations in FAMIN cause arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease in early childhood, and a common genetic variant increases risk for Crohn’s disease and leprosy. We developed an unbiased liquid chromatography mass spectrometry screen for enzymatic activity of this orphan protein.

Attenuation of ischemic liver injury by prostaglandin E
Background: Prostaglandin has been reported to have protective effects against liver injury. Use of this agent in clinical settings, however, is limited because of drugrelated side effects.

Can adenine nucleotides predict primary nonfunction of the human liver homograft? [PDF]
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.
