Liver Transplantation in PNPO Deficiency: Management Challenges and Biological Lessons. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Pyridox(am)ine 5′ Phosphate Oxidase deficiency (PNPO) presents with refractory epilepsy responsive to treatment with pyridoxal 5′ phosphate (PLP) or pyridoxine. A 15‐year‐old boy with PNPO deficiency and cirrhosis underwent orthotopic liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma without extra‐hepatic disease.

Pyridoxal 5′-phosphate: electrophilic catalyst extraordinaire [PDF]
Studies of nonenzymatic electrophilic catalysis of carbon deprotonation of glycine show that pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) strongly enhances the carbon acidity of alpha-amino acids, but that this is not the overriding mechanistic imperative for cofactor catalysis. Although the fully protonated PLP-glycine iminium ion adduct exhibits an extraordinary low

Auricularia auricula polysaccharides (AAP; 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg) protect against acute lung injury (ALI) by dose‐dependently remodeling the gut microbiota and modulating associated metabolic pathways via the gut‐lung axis, thereby enhancing pulmonary anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant capacity to ultimately prevent tissue damage.

Assessment of Metabolites in Noni Fruit Slurry Fermented With Four Non‐Saccharomyces Yeasts
Dried noni fruit slurry (DNFS) was fermented for 14 days with selected non‐Saccharomyces yeasts. GCMS, HPLC and amino acid analysis showed that Pichia kluyveri Frootzen and Williopsis saturnus NCYC22 grew well, reduced off‐flavor fatty acids, generated fruity aroma compounds and preserved total phenolic content. ABSTRACT Noni products often suffer from

Assessment of vitamin E status in patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome: plasma, plasma corrected for lipids or red blood cell measurements? [PDF]
<b>Background:</b> There is some evidence that the plasma vitamin E status is perturbed as part of systemic inflammatory response and correcting this with other plasma markers may not lead to reliable results.

ABSTRACT Unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), a highly toxic rocket propellant with known multiorgan effects, requires urgent characterization of its chronic low‐dose toxicity. Using an integrated approach including exploratory transcriptomics (n = 3/group) and metabolomic (n = 4/group) approaches in male Sprague–Dawley rats exposed to high‐dose ...

Structural insights into the orthosteric inhibition of P2X receptors by non-ATP analog antagonists
P2X receptors are extracellular ATP-gated ion channels that form homo- or heterotrimers and consist of seven subtypes. They are expressed in various tissues, including neuronal and nonneuronal cells, and play critical roles in physiological processes ...
