A simple rapid immunoassay for S-adenosylhomocysteine in plasma☆ [PDF]
The measurement of plasma S-adenosylhomocysteine is a more sensitive indicator of the risk for vascular disease than is plasma homocysteine. Because the level of S-adenosylhomocysteine is normally in the nanomolar range, it has been difficult to measure and necessitated the development of complex fluorometric and mass-spectrophotometric methods.

Efficacy evaluation of the S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase inhibitor MSD-914 in rhesus macaques (Macaca Mulatta) challenged with Ebola virus by the intramuscular route. [PDF]
Ebola virus (EBOV) causes a severe and often fatal hemorrhagic fever in humans for which effective postexposure countermeasures are lacking. Herein, we describe the evaluation of an S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase inhibitor, MSD-914, using mouse and ...

Regulation of S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase by lysine acetylation. [PDF]
S-Adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH) is an NAD(+)-dependent tetrameric enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of S-adenosylhomocysteine to adenosine and homocysteine and is important in cell growth and the regulation of gene expression. Loss of SAHH function can result in global inhibition of cellular methyltransferase enzymes because of high levels of

Metabolic perturbation of epigenome by inhibiting -adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase elicits senescence through DNA damage response in hepatoma cells [PDF]
Cellular senescence is a key physiological barrier against tumor and represents an option for therapeutic intervention. One pivotal intracellular stimulus causing senescence is DNA damage response, while the senescence-associated heterochromatin in ...

H19 lncRNA alters DNA methylation genome wide by regulating S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase. [PDF]
DNA methylation is essential for mammalian development and physiology. Here we report that the developmentally regulated H19 lncRNA binds to and inhibits S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH), the only mammalian enzyme capable of hydrolysing S ...

Stable Isotope Dilution Assays for Clinical Analyses of Folates and Other One-Carbon Metabolites: Application to Folate-Deficiency Studies. [PDF]
Folate deficiency is generally accepted as a potential direct or indirect risk factor for diseases including spina bifida, coronary heart diseases, malfunctions of the central nervous system, and cancer. The direct inclusion of folates in the methylation
