Electroanalytical overview: The electroanalytical detection of theophylline
In this overview, we explore the electroanalytical determination of theophylline. Theophylline finds use as a bronchodilator for treating diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Molecular simulations and Markov state modeling reveal the structural diversity and dynamics of a theophylline-binding RNA aptamer in its unbound state. [PDF]
RNA aptamers are oligonucleotides that bind with high specificity and affinity to target ligands. In the absence of bound ligand, secondary structures of RNA aptamers are generally stable, but single-stranded and loop regions, including ligand binding ...

Electroconvulsive therapy in an older patient with recurrent major depressive disorder and a permanent pacemaker: A case report. [PDF]
Abstract Background Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is highly effective for severe or treatment‐resistant major depressive disorder, including in older adults. In patients with permanent pacemakers, however, ECT may be avoided because of concern about device malfunction or arrhythmia.

The Impact of CYP1A2 and CYP2E1 Genes Polymorphism on Theophylline Response [PDF]
Theophylline is a medicine with narrow therapeutic index. This implies that a small change in dosage would cause side effects. Theophylline is metabolized by CYP1A2 and CYP2E1.

Isolation, characterization and application of theophylline-degrading Aspergillus fungi
Background Caffeine, theobromine and theophylline are main purine alkaloid in tea. Theophylline is the downstream metabolite and it remains at a very low level in Camellia sinensis.

Theophylline (3-methyxanthine) has been used to treat airway diseases for over 70 years. It was originally used as a bronchodilator but the relatively high doses required are associated with frequent side effects, so its use declined as inhaled β2-agonists became more widely used.
