Prevalence of tetrahydrobiopterine (BH4)-responsive alleles among Austrian patients with PAH deficiency: comprehensive results from molecular analysis in 147 patients [PDF]
Phenylketonuria (PKU, MIM 261600) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations of the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene (PAH, GenBank U49897.1, RefSeq NM_000277). To date more than 560 variants of the PAH gene have been identified. In Europe there

Linoleic acid-induced endothelial activation
Hypertriglyceridemia, an important risk factor of atherosclerosis, is associated with increased circulating free fatty acids. Research to date indicates that linoleic acid (LA), the major fatty acid in the American diet, may be atherogenic by activating ...

Higher serum neopterin concentrations and kynurenine-to-tryptophan (Kyn/Trp) ratios are associated with increased mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Preferentially, Th1-type cytokine interferon-γ stimulates tryptophan breakdown and

Pharmacokinetics of orally administered tetrahydrobiopterin in patients with phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency [PDF]
Summary: The oral loading test with tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is used to discriminate between variants of hyperphenylalaninaemia and to detect BH4-responsive patients.

6R-L-erythro-5,6,7,8-Tetrahydrobiopterin and Dopamine Release
We previously reported that intracerebroventricular administration of 6R-L-erythro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin (6R-BJL), a cofactor for aromatic amino acid hydroxylases and nitric oxide synthase, induces an increase in DOPA levels (as an index of DA ...
